Fortnite offers a competitive mode in addition to the Battle Royale. However, many do not understand the purpose of the related “Hype” and what it is needed for. We show you everything important about Hype here on MeinMMO.
What is Hype? Those who want to compete, especially in tournaments with a lot of money, need to have a lot of Hype in Fortnite. But for many players, the explanation of Hype is not clear. Hype is the “currency” that pro players need to participate in tournaments with cash prizes. This currency can only be earned in Arena matches.
So, if you want to start your collection of Hype, you will have to fight your way through many ranks to earn the Champion status.
Why do I need Hype? You need Hype to advance in the individual leagues of the Arena mode, so you can also participate in tournaments with cash prizes.
How do I best collect Hype? That varies. However, you do not receive Hype for opening chests or landing first. Rather, your placement and kills are what matter.
In doing so, you need to develop strategies on how to survive the longest and rack up the most kills. The better your placement and the more kills you achieve, the more points will be added to your Hype account.
Can you lose Hype? To prevent every player from sneaking into the cash tournaments, the bus driver charges a fee. This is only activated in the 4th division of the second league. The price that must be paid increases steadily in higher divisions. So you must regain the Hype paid to the bus driver through a good match with many kills and a good placement.
What do you think of Arena matches? Do you find them cool or do you think they are pointless? Let us know in the comments how you feel about it.
