What mode were you playing? If it was Team Rumble (which it sounds like you were based on dying once or twice and only having 60 people in the lobby), then you were simply on the winning team.

As for sniping, I've become decent at it and have a few 250m+ snipes. It takes some practice with the bullet drop and what not. I just don't know how I always get lasered from across the map by regular ARs and other guns. Some people have ridiculous aim.

It was a team competition. It said I was #1 out of 60 after two different battles.

Yeah, it will say that in Team Rumble if you're on the winning team. Doesn't mean you were the #1 player.

Ok that's what was really confusing since I knew I couldn't be the #1 player since I didn't take out anyone....

My friend and I won our very first match in the Duos tournament... This game is a lot of fun when you're playing against a lobby of potatoes!

Re: Fortnite

It looks like Fortnite has came to an end. Of course, we all know there will be another, but I would hate to be one of the people who have spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on the game.
