Ned Flanders Becomes Unexpected Fortnite Eliminator

The Simpsons' arrival in Fortnite has injected new life into the popular battle royale game, with the introduction of iconic characters like Homer, Marge, and Bart. However, one character has unexpectedly stolen the spotlight: Ned Flanders.

According to Epic Games, the developer of Fortnite, Ned Flanders has achieved a remarkable feat since the Simpsons mini-season began last week. The seemingly harmless neighbor has racked up over 33,000 eliminations of other players. This is particularly surprising given that Flanders is not a boss character and doesn't offer any significant loot to players. This suggests that players are either unaware of his defensive capabilities or are intentionally provoking him.

The game's mechanics have been in place for a while, where NPCs will defend themselves if attacked. It appears many players have underestimated Flanders' combat skills, leading to their swift elimination.

With the Simpsons mini-season still underway, and several weeks remaining before the launch of Chapter 7, Flanders' elimination count is expected to rise further. Some analysts predict he could surpass 100,000 eliminations by the end of the season.

BNN's Perspective:

While the unexpected success of Ned Flanders in Fortnite is amusing, it highlights the dynamic and unpredictable nature of the game. It also underscores the importance of understanding the game's mechanics and the potential consequences of player actions. This unexpected turn of events adds a layer of intrigue to the Simpsons mini-season, keeping players engaged and entertained.
