Tyler ‘Ninja’ Blevins hilariously lost his head after being eliminated in Fortnite while playing with fellow Twitch streamer Tim ‘TimTheTatMan’ Betar.The pair were part of a Fortnite squad with Paul ‘Action Jaxon’ and landed in Retail Row in search of a victory royale amongst a host of enemy players.

Despite insisting they would land together, Ninja got caught in an engagement while separated from his team-mates and was quickly downed despite hitting his opponent for 114 with a pump shotgun.

Ninja was known for his angry moments back in H1Z1 but has toned down his rage after switching to Fortnite.

Blevins was quickly eliminated by the player causing TimTheTatMan to mock his skills on the battlefield, saying: “you’re really out here dying this game,” while looting the enemies he had previously killed.

“Shut up Tim!” Ninja screamed in response. “I’m so mad right now man. That’s so lucky dude. Just bobbing and weaving around my shotgun shots while rocking me with the SMG.”

Eager to avenge his fallen team-mate, Tim and Paul asked for the location of the player to which Ninja gave a hilarious response.

He yelled: “I don’t know, where do you think he was? West! West – Paul! Let’s look at the builds.”

Although Paul would suffer a similar fate as Ninja, Tim went on to clutch up for his team and kill the opposing player before mocking him with the ‘Take the L emote’.

The first live event of Chapter 3 is expected to take place in less than six weeks. Here’s everything we know so far, based on various leaks.

Leaked Map Stages

All future stages for the territories controlled by both The Seven and Imagined Order have been leaked by data-miner Hypex. The maps show the Resistance will retake control of most of the Island, leaving only Command Cavern and Loot Lake for the IO. The final stage will lead the story directly into a live event, with the Imagined Order having little options left for victory.

Leaked Quest Voice Line

Epic also recently added new voice lines for the upcoming Week 6 Quests which, when reviewed closely, appear to tease the main story of a new live event. The Agent Jones character claims “one of the IO’s Doomsday devices is now in production”, seemingly hinting that the new event could be related to Chapter 2 Season 2’s The Device, which was also focused around a “Doomsday Device”.

A transcript of the Agent Jones voice lines can be found below:

“This will not come as a surprise, but IO management loves Doomsday machines – loves them! There’s even a doomsday division at HQ, oh man their softball team is awful but they will one day destroy us all so… kind of a wash. We have very credible intel that one of the IO’s Doomsday devices is now in production. We need to find out everything we can while we still can. Hit the field, I’ll prep the cameras . . . I have a very bad feeling that we are not ready for what we’re gonna find out.”

Doomsday Landmark

According to Fortnite data-miner GMatrixGames, a new Landmark code-named ‘DDMachine’ has been added to the game’s tags, suggesting that the Doomsday Device described by Agent Jones could be added to the map in the future.

Reminder that back a few updates ago, a landmark codenamed "DDMachine" was added to the tags, but never added to the map. Bringing this up again, because of IO's Doomsday Division being brought up by Jones in his quest dialogue.

Players can now find the items scattered throughout the Island from Chests, Llamas, Supply Drops, Loot Sharks and ground loot. Once the short trial period ends on April 25 at 8AM ET, new gold funding stations will go live in-game on the following day to let players “fund” the item they want to see return permanently (for the rest of Season 2). The item that becomes 100% funded first will automatically be reintroduced to the loot pool as soon as the goal, of which the exact value is unknown, is reached.

We’ll keep you updated on which item gets unvaulted.

Fortnite has re-added multiple Item Shop sections to its API, meaning they will be available very soon. Five existing sections have also been removed, suggesting Epic doesn’t plan to bring those Sets back to the Item Shop for a while.
