headfirst into the whirlwind of excitement
1:20
surrounding the launch of
1:22
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2. Get
1:26
ready for an epic adventure as we
1:28
unpack all the juicy details and get
1:30
hyped for what's to come. From leaks
1:32
to expectations. We're leaving no stone unturneth.
1:36
So let's hop right in. All
1:51
right, so let's get these started. What
1:54
is my first impression of the Greek
1:56
mythology theme for Season 5 Chapter
1:58
2? I
2:00
think it's pretty simple and pretty easy to
2:02
understand that I'm a big fan of the
2:04
week of mythology Out of all
2:06
the things that they do a lot of times like
2:09
for night in general over the last couple of chapters
2:12
and over God knows how many seasons There's
2:15
times where they do you know
2:17
licensing seasons and there's times where they kind of
2:20
do stuff That's fair game, right? They know no
2:22
no one owns the rights to Greek mythology. It's
2:24
literally it's just been an existence for you know
2:26
God knows how long and It's
2:29
I think it's I think it's really great. I think it's really
2:31
super cool They can get they get to put
2:33
their own spin on it. They get to be as
2:35
creative as they want And and honestly,
2:37
obviously they can they can do whatever they want with
2:39
the storyline as well. I think they're already they're already
2:41
actually Intertwining like for
2:44
night and Greek mythology and we
2:46
have like quests and missions and
2:48
stuff better like basically a storyline
2:50
I The
2:58
map already in the two areas I think I'll
3:00
talk about this more later on in this episode
3:02
but Like the map
3:04
is great. I really do like the new spots and
3:07
yeah again like the skins are already super dope
3:09
I've seen a lot of the variants coming out
3:11
too. So they've done a great job. It's honestly
3:13
so far as well one
3:15
of my favorite battle passes Also
3:19
very cool skins to get new unlockables and
3:21
like great emotes and stuff like that So
3:24
I feel like epic just keeps stepping up their battle pass
3:26
game, which is always great. So
3:29
Yeah, huge shout out to epic. Keep it up guys. And if
3:31
you guys are gonna purchase a battle pass don't forget to use
3:33
code ninja Of
3:38
course But what
3:40
are my thoughts and takeaways Favorite and
3:42
least favorite part of season 5 chapter 1
3:45
and this is chapter 2 Hmm.
3:48
I'll answer this question the way that my my
3:50
guys were my kind of guys wrote it So
3:52
my thoughts take away his favorite and least everything
3:54
of chapter 1 so the previous season before this
3:57
I mean, I loved it. I even said this before
3:59
I was like this is one of my favorite seasons even
4:02
though it was like so for those of you who
4:04
don't know For that has had five
4:06
chapters each chapter is basically, you know has multiple seasons
4:08
in it and each chapter
4:10
in for night the season one
4:13
is usually like I mean
4:15
to put it bluntly is usually the most
4:17
boring season and What I mean
4:20
by that is basically like they'll give you
4:22
the least amount of Stuff
4:24
to work with and kind of just but it kind
4:26
of like sets the tone right for
4:28
the season So how epic has always worked
4:31
with their chapters is it always ramps up?
4:34
Right. It always ramps up. So never
4:36
they'll never have a boring chapter I'm
4:38
sorry a boring season like
4:40
past the first one. It's always
4:43
going to be more There's always going to be
4:45
more items more movement more this more that more
4:48
Cracticness more craziness it always ramps
4:50
up and it's smart. It's kind of
4:52
literally by the way It's kind of how about our way out literally
4:54
works like the crescendo Of
4:57
each single match that you cue into
5:00
is at the end, right? Like
5:02
when that that final final couple of players
5:04
this the circles smaller It's intense anything can
5:06
happen and you finally get that win that
5:09
feeling is incredible and the kind of what
5:11
epic does With their chapters
5:13
right season one is usually very very
5:15
bland. They're laying up the groundwork, right?
5:18
They're introducing a new sandbox of like weapons and items and
5:21
things like that to see to get a feel for how
5:23
they you know What they're
5:25
doing and how they work so chapter
5:28
5 Crazy
5:31
chapter one was uh In
5:34
my opinion my favorite out of
5:36
a lot of out of a lot of new chapters. This
5:38
one was my favorite because The
5:41
new the weapons were were interesting and new and
5:43
I liked that I liked the modification of the
5:46
weapons as well I thought that that was very
5:48
cool as well and that added a lot of
5:50
variety. I liked the map I
5:52
loved the coins like I really do feel like
5:54
they did a great job with for
5:56
a season one They
5:59
knocked out of the park That's my opinion of
6:03
chapter five season one. Killed it,
6:06
led into a great season two. Here we are
6:08
already popping off with all these new amazing items
6:10
and I'm a huge fan. There's so many people
6:13
trolling on TikTok saying that like it's crazy how
6:15
often I get clickbaited and I feel like it's
6:17
happening more often than not where like people are
6:19
like literally putting words in my mouth. I'm
6:22
in love, in love
6:24
with this new season. Like
6:27
it's amazing and obviously I'm
6:29
still learning and I'm still getting better but
6:32
I love it. So there's people
6:34
that are literally like taking clips
6:36
crazily out of context saying
6:38
that like I don't like the new season. That's just
6:41
not true. It's incredible.
6:43
My least favorite thing of the first season
6:47
of this chapter, so the one that
6:49
we just came from, was probably I
6:51
mean probably just the shotgun. The
6:53
shotguns like I didn't like in I'm a zero build
6:55
player now. These
6:58
old hands ain't what you're being in
7:00
your game. And
7:02
building is just it's just it's crazy. I don't have the ping for
7:04
it and I also just don't
7:06
have the time to stay at a high level and
7:08
compete at a high level in a build mode even
7:10
if I'm not playing ranked. But the shotguns that they
7:13
added for zero build right it's either the frenzy auto
7:15
shotty or the hammer pump, the hammer shotgun and the
7:17
hammer shotgun is dog water in zero build because you're
7:19
out in the open and it's basically
7:21
one shot and you're done. Whereas the frenzy auto is just
7:23
like the drum shotgun. It's one of those broken shotguns of
7:25
the game. So that was hands down I least favorite thing
7:27
about about the very first season. And
7:29
it's unfortunate that they kept both of the
7:31
exact same shotguns are still in this one.
7:33
However, they did finally add a new shotgun,
7:36
the gatekeeper shotgun and that actually is
7:38
better to run right now in my
7:40
opinion than the frenzy auto shotgun. If
7:42
you are like a really talented gamer,
7:45
it has three bullets and
7:47
it can it pretty much guarantees that you're you're
7:50
going to eliminate a player even if even full
7:52
shields full over shield like each shot does roughly
7:54
around 80 to 100 damage. And if you hit
7:56
if you hit three shots, you're doing 260. Any
7:59
over 240 to 260. If you have you know,
8:01
it's it's it's super strong very good gun early game
8:03
as well Yeah, my least third
8:05
part of the very first season was the shotguns. I
8:07
just didn't like them in zero build I thought you
8:09
could only run one and the one that you could
8:11
run is like really cringe and super easy to use
8:13
So am I excited about
8:15
the potential collabs with persona and
8:18
God of War? Oh, I mean you're
8:20
just getting anyone who's played I
8:23
mentioned this my stream the other day You
8:25
just get massive gods of God of War
8:27
vibes like as you're running around
8:29
there's Hades Zeus Right, like literally God of War
8:31
is all about Greek mythology and Kratos just you
8:33
know Slaughtering all the gods
8:36
Demi or not. It's yeah, it's really exciting.
8:39
I love God of War I always have this
8:41
really funny story. Like I'm just I'm just
8:43
not naturally gifted at video games And
8:46
like when I was little for example when I was
8:48
little and there wasn't a joke I'm not trying to
8:51
I'm literally gonna gas myself up here when I was
8:53
a kid I remember I was not
8:55
allowed to play splinter cell or Metal
8:57
gear solid or any or any of
9:00
the metal gears with snake and all those guys Because
9:02
it was just too like gruesome. Whatever. I don't know why
9:04
but you know,
9:06
I watched my dad play My dad was playing and my dad was
9:09
on this boss fight for like an hour
9:12
And obviously again, I couldn't play the game. So I'm sitting
9:14
here watching. I Haven't haven't played
9:16
a game before it not once my entire life But
9:19
I've watched the fight so much I'd like all
9:21
fights have like moves right boss does this boss
9:23
does that then the boss does this and the
9:25
boss does that Boss gets to this percent health
9:28
and he does this right like it just has like a
9:30
script that it follows And I and just from watching I
9:32
figured it out and then I asked my dad I was
9:34
like dad can I try to get
9:36
you out of this fight and he goes sure son I'll
9:38
give you one shot and I beat it the first time
9:40
I got first time beat the boss I've
9:43
done that as well in a God of War game
9:46
my buddy my best friend Anthony was Struggling
9:49
on I want to say it was hey Service,
9:53
I think it was like one of the last bosses Met
9:55
of its service might even been Zeus. I don't even know I
9:57
remember I watched him play it for two hours while I was Playing next
9:59
to him Like a different game and I was like, yeah, let me try
10:02
and I literally be the first try So like
10:05
I love God of War I got massive God
10:07
of War vibes as you're just
10:09
running throughout the map and you know, obviously
10:11
with all the Greek mythology So it's really
10:13
sick. I'm super pumped and super looking forward
10:16
to the potential God of War collabs I
10:18
also heard that there was supposed to be
10:20
some Final Fantasy 7 rebirth collabs allegedly and
10:24
Obviously for those who don't know I mean I'm
10:26
the biggest tip of the world for Final Fantasy 7
10:28
content and the new rebirth game came out and it's
10:30
out of this world So I'm

12:30
We will be sure. Which
12:40
Greek god or mythological figure are you
12:42
most looking forward to seeing in the game?
12:45
I loved Hercules growing
12:47
up, so I'm hoping they do something, they
12:49
do some cool mini game with Hercules to
12:51
get his fist or something like that. I
12:53
don't know, he didn't mean his strength somehow,
12:55
I don't know how they would
12:57
do it in the game. But I think they'd be pretty cool. Do
13:00
you think the introduction of flying abilities will
13:02
change the gameplay significantly? I've
13:05
been asked this question a lot, my streamers and
13:07
viewers always want to know what's the best mobility
13:10
for a new season, for a new chapter. And
13:13
unfortunately, this new
13:15
movement, I explain
13:17
it like this, this new movement is the best
13:19
movement in the game if there's no one around.
13:22
So the ability to fly is one of
13:25
the greatest abilities in Fortnite that they
13:27
added. However, your hitbox becomes like three times
13:29
as big against good players, like competitively and
13:31
at a high level, you're
13:34
going to be struggling to
13:36
make it out of certain situations alive. If you
13:39
can get in the air and then start dodging left
13:41
and right, that might be the play and you might
13:43
be able to get away with stuff, but all
13:46
in all, it's very high
13:48
risk, high reward. Again, if
13:50
there's no one around you, it's going to be an
13:52
incredible way to rotate. And I think people are going
13:55
to perfect it. Like, I
13:57
imagine the higher up you are is the worst. is
14:00
if you use the ability
14:02
and fly around super low to the ground, if
14:05
people start shooting your wings, like you'll immediately
14:07
be able to build and run away and
14:09
like get cover. So I actually think that
14:12
people perfect how to fly. Um,
14:14
but as of right now, it is like, it's,
14:16
you know, you're pretty vulnerable. Am
14:19
I planning to hunt down the golden
14:22
apple for that speed boost? So
14:26
I will say this short
14:28
answer. Absolutely. Short
14:30
answer. Absolutely. Give me that. Give me that.
14:33
The long answer. So
14:36
if you get Zeus's, uh, it's like Zeus or
14:38
the other one, I don't remember which one. If
14:40
you get one of the Olympic Olympian, uh, coins,
14:42
you jump higher and you sprint
14:45
faster, which incredibly
14:47
depletes your bar, your, your, your
14:49
stamina bar, actually like
14:51
most of the, most of the time from what I've
14:53
seen leaving you more vulnerable than not just
14:56
thinking about, uh, you know,
14:58
the speed boost and any speed boost in four night, right? The
15:00
question is, is there, is there more, does
15:02
it benefit you more than it hurts you? And right now like
15:05
that coin in zero build, you
15:08
know, your stamina is everything in zero build. Very important to
15:10
make sure that you don't, you're not just depleted in the
15:12
worst spots cause you can't
15:14
build to protect yourself in certain
15:17
situations. So truly not sure if it's going
15:19
to be something that I'm going to be going for all the time. What
15:21
do you think of Cerberus wielding a three headed
15:23
shotgun epic or not? Dude, give me that. Give
15:25
me that bro. Um, I
15:27
really do feel like they could go above and beyond
15:30
with weapons skins in this game. I would actually like
15:32
to see four night go, uh, like,
15:34
like over and above and beyond
15:37
these, like these types of weapons. Right.
15:39
When you, when you get Zeus's rifle,
15:41
uh, the huntress rifle, and when you
15:43
get the server shotgun, like, why
15:45
are we not, right? Why are we
15:48
not customizing these guns? Right? Why are these guns
15:50
just going to be these epic guns and that's
15:52
it, right? Like we're going to stop at
15:54
them just being like, Oh, Hey, I got a mythic. Oh,
15:56
we're not going to change the way it looks. We're not going to
15:58
deck it out. Maybe even give it different. animations like in
16:00
Valorant for those you guys who don't know
16:02
Valorant Really took
16:05
skins Done skins to
16:07
a whole other level so counter strike is
16:09
where you know if everyone knows the case
16:11
openings Counter-strike skins like the level of the
16:14
skins like and the the
16:16
clarity of the skins can be like, you know different
16:18
every single Time you open one But
16:20
Valorant added like literal like Dragon
16:23
animations. I remember the craziest one they ever
16:25
they did a dragon bundle where you could
16:28
you know The shotgun when it reloaded breathe
16:30
fire and bullets and it looks different and
16:32
like you were literally shooting out of a dragon's mouth With the
16:35
vandal one of the one of my still to this day
16:37
one of my favorite skins in Valorant like I would love
16:39
to see I pick really start
16:41
like putting the foot in the
16:43
you know the foot on the pedal here
16:46
with creativity and Skin
16:48
customization. I really think they're
16:50
missing out. Actually, they're like, you know, they continue
16:53
to roll out like
16:55
new things that are cool
16:58
But I did if they're I guess they don't really need
17:00
the money to Like if they were
17:02
like struggling I'd be like dude, they should be taking advantage of
17:04
this But it's actually like it's just not their goal anymore Am
17:07
I ready to wield the fiery chain and whip
17:09
and the whip of Hades the whip of the
17:11
Hades mythic weapon? So if you guys fight Hades,
17:13
this is another great thing that epic does I
17:16
can never you know, I can
17:18
never gas them up enough Another
17:20
really cool thing that epic did is they've changed like
17:22
the way that the bat the boss sites are So
17:24
it's like the little things right? So it's not it's not
17:27
as cut and dry as oh you find the boss you
17:29
you fight Um now you like you have to find their
17:32
Find where their homes are or like, you know where their
17:34
relics are and you have to like challenge them by you
17:37
know Throwing their their relic or
17:40
their statue of themselves like on the ground and it
17:42
like starts this duel and you have to destroy
17:45
It's like it's like a little mini horde fight in
17:47
order to unlock fighting the boss and I love that
17:49
Right another little thing that changes, you know, just puts
17:52
a little twist and makes a little different And
17:54
I just like the way it feels in game. It's
17:56
it's a lot more fun than just challenging the best
17:58
right up So I love that
18:00
they've done that but if you fight Hades, he
18:02
has this whip it It literally looks very it's
18:05
very thrash like if you guys don't know League
18:07
of Legends You know one of
18:09
the support players in the game or support characters Champions
18:13
his name is thrash and he has this lantern and he
18:15
throws it and like hooks people It's
18:17
super dope So
18:19
yes, I'm very ready to wield the fiery chain and
18:21
with the Hades mythic weapon I think it's
18:24
gonna be a lot more fun and rewarding and
18:26
build mode as you can probably I imagine it'll
18:28
break through a wall And a ramp
18:30
to get to the player It'll
18:32
be it'll be cool to rock that and zero build as
18:34
well if it does come out Which
18:37
speaking of boss fights which mythic boss fight at
18:39
my most eager to experience is use Medusa Aries
18:41
or service. So They're
18:43
all pretty dope. I'm gonna have to go with Medusa
18:48
because right now Zeus like Zeus is average like,
18:50
you know Zeus and Hades on and service Those
18:52
are interesting fights, but like I'm ready for it
18:54
to get a little bit more creative Which
18:57
potential skins from Greek mythology are you most
18:59
excited to unlock? Probably
19:04
Probably just all of them like that
19:06
at the end of the day I like I picked does a
19:08
great job with the battle path skins and
19:10
like the final the final Unlockable is
19:12
always just a really really cool style
19:15
So definitely just excited to unlock all of
19:18
them, which will obviously be towards the end of
19:20
the season And they can't
19:22
give you everything at once. It's classic epic. Do
19:24
you have any rituals? superstitions
19:27
for new for night seasons Just
19:30
32 years old everyone So my
19:32
ritual is trying to get a good night's sleep so
19:34
that I can be ready for anything You
19:37
know for any prolonged downtime or you know
19:39
any curve balls that might be thrown Thrown
19:42
my way with any new for night season
19:45
For example, I did get a good sleep leading
19:47
into the new season I also
19:49
haven't been drinking coffee and I've been
19:52
kind of abstaining from caffeine For
19:54
the last couple of weeks to try to reset my to reset
19:57
my my tolerance because I've been
19:59
having You know, it's getting it
20:01
was getting to the point where every time I would drink
20:03
caffeine I would literally yawn it would almost make me more
20:05
tired So my body definitely had just
20:08
way too much of a buildup to it and
20:10
a tolerance to it So I thought
20:12
some great sleep and then leading into
20:15
it the brain a season We ended
20:17
up having like a 12-hour delay the season was delayed
20:19
12 hours That
20:21
is an absolute monstrous amount of time for a
20:23
new season Like almost like I feel like the
20:26
most the seasons ever been delayed is like a
20:28
like an hour or two So
20:30
this yeah, the display was massive But I was
20:32
well rested and I had a cup of caffeine
20:34
a cup of coffee to kind of like, you
20:36
know push me through and I ended up doing
20:38
an 18 hour banger, so I Was
20:42
lit super fun And
20:44
yeah, just being prepared being prepared for anything is
20:46
really important when it comes to new foreign season
20:48
if you're content creator Right you want to be?
20:51
You want to be there to give people what
20:53
they want to see right and like a brain
20:56
a season is a great new way of getting Viewers to your
20:58
channel as well and you know just getting more eyes on you
21:00
because obviously people want to check out what the new season is
21:02
like Follow a question
21:05
which caught of we talked about this am I
21:07
staying up late or waking up early
21:09
to catch the launch? So
21:12
if it's a new chapter If
21:14
it's a new chapter, we're staying up late if it's a new
21:16
chapter You know, we're more
21:18
than likely staying up late if
21:20
it's a new season we're getting up early and And
21:23
sometimes almost not even staying up late I think
21:25
we did one when it was the when it
21:27
was OG for night coming out and that was
21:29
like a no-brainer had to Do that that
21:32
a new chair. It has to be it has to be out of this world
21:35
has to be worth me You
21:37
know, I prioritize my health. It preserves my sleep. I'm sorry.
21:39
I prioritize all that stuff now
21:41
just like setting an alarm for two in the morning or one in the
21:43
morning or something like that to Because
21:45
at the end of the day all does it's
21:47
all about viewership, right? So It's
21:51
like does your ship mean that much to me where
21:53
I'm gonna wake up at 2 in the morning to
21:55
like compete against Like cipher and Nick a 30 and
21:57
all these guys who are gonna be pulling 24 hours
21:59
like streaming like sleeping until in or however
22:01
they do that. Nah,
22:04
man. No shade to
22:06
them but like I'd rather
22:08
sleep. I'd
22:10
rather get my sleep and you know eventually
22:12
they'll go offline or you know the
22:14
people who want to watch me, plan watch me,
22:17
you know. I'll
22:19
be there. But
22:21
again, priorities just shift as you get a
22:23
little older. This

23:46
did I plan to spend
23:48
the first hours of season
23:53
five chapter? It's
23:59
chapter five. season 2. I
24:02
planned to play with
24:04
Legion early in the morning and then my brother as
24:06
well early in the morning and then I was gonna
24:08
play with Legion Cypher Kirsh. That was the plan. But
24:11
then the season got delayed 16 hours. I did
24:13
an 18 hour stream and I
24:15
ended up still playing with Legion after playing some
24:17
solos and then ended up playing with Jon as
24:20
well. My brother a little bit after
24:22
that for some duos. Had some
24:24
really cool games and hit some really
24:26
sick clips but that is
24:29
not what I anticipated. But it
24:31
was fun and lit nonetheless. Well
24:34
I'll be playing solo duos or squad matches to kick
24:36
off the new season. So obviously I've already been I
24:38
always try to prioritize like solos at the start to
24:40
get an early win really get a feel for the
24:42
weapons and feel for the items. It's a little bit
24:44
more difficult to kind of go super in-depth into the
24:46
items into the map when you're like talking with other
24:48
people and playing like that. So usually
24:51
like first couple of hours I usually go solo but
24:53
then I probably play
24:55
more duos and squads at the beginning of a new season
24:57
than ever because a lot of my friends like it's kind
24:59
of you know sad to say but a lot of my
25:01
friends don't really play at all or
25:04
early in the morning. So but a
25:06
lot of you know Cypher Kirsh all these guys Legion actually
25:08
wake up making a party to get on a little bit
25:10
earlier when it comes to these new
25:13
seasons. So I try to take
25:15
advantage of that into play with some friends.
25:17
Do I have any predictions for or
25:20
predictions or surprises? Predictions
25:22
for surprises or events in the
25:24
new season? I
25:27
have no clue. I don't dive.
25:29
It's interesting question. I
25:31
don't dive into myths
25:34
at all or like rumors and things like that. I
25:36
really do try to just keep it like I hate
25:38
I never tried to like look and find presents when
25:40
I was a kid on Christmas. I never tried to
25:42
I never tried to spoil anything like that. I really
25:44
feel like like I
25:46
want to be surprised. I want to
25:48
be surprised. I don't want to know what's going on. You know
25:51
get it away from me. I don't want to
25:53
I don't want to predict any of that stuff. And
25:56
am I prepared for the potential cast of the new
25:58
meta shifts and weapon adjustments? We're
26:01
already diving in bro. We're already diving in.
26:03
The every weapon, the gatekeeper
26:05
shotgun in my opinion is meta. It's the best shotgun for
26:07
zero build. It's right. It's S tier for
26:09
sure. The warforged assault rifle
26:11
is with an actual proper sight on
26:14
it is easily the best AR in the
26:16
game now. The hunter's DMR
26:18
is a decent replacement for a sniper rifle. I
26:20
actually really enjoy using that too. You know, and
26:23
the harbinger SMG, the new SMG is kind of
26:25
like a buffed up hype SMG, which is what
26:28
was in our last game, always in
26:30
last season. That's also really good. And
26:32
I'm absolutely always ready, dude. You have to move with the meta or
26:34
you're just going to lose a bunch of games and, you know, get
26:36
dumpster on by players who are trying to think they're better than you
26:38
did. You know what I mean? Just rocking, sweating
26:40
it out, rocking the cringe stuff. And it's
26:42
like, can't beat them, join them is a
26:44
kind of, kind of unfortunately
26:46
the meta. But that's fine. Final
26:49
question, guys. What are my hopes and
26:52
dreams for the four night adventures in
26:54
the season two chapter five? Just
26:59
a little bit more, right? A little bit
27:01
more than last season. I already love, I
27:03
already love again, it's a great layout right
27:05
now. I like maybe some
27:07
map changes mid season. I think
27:09
that'd be cool because there's almost no
27:12
reason to go to any other spot on the map.
27:14
If you're like trying to actually explore the map and
27:17
like get a few get like half fun on the new map, there's
27:20
only like four places to land that are really new. And then,
27:22
you know, so I really hope that maybe some new, maybe some
27:24
new map changes to make every
27:26
spot kind of cooler and a little
27:28
bit more themed, right? With a Greek mythology and
27:31
yeah, maybe like just a new weapon, like a
27:34
couple more new weapons throughout the season sprinkled in.
27:36
That's always helpful to keep things
27:38
fresh and to keep
27:41
it, you know, just, just a little bit fresh.
27:43
So that's, that's it.
27:45
That's it. That's all I'm hoping for. All
27:48
right. There you have it folks.
