SypherPK's Fortnite weapon tier list
Epic Games have added a lot of weapons in Fortnite and thus, the 30-minute video showcases almost all weapons that were used in normal and competitive matches. In Super OP++ tier, SypherPK has two weapons: Infinity Blade and Thanos Gauntlet. These weapons broke the game when they were introduced, and many players got free limitations in matches when using them. And for a good reason, they are vaulted.
