It is no surprise that Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 has been replete with unexpected and entertaining moments, with the developers completely flipping the game on its head by introducing Vehicle Mods to the loot pool. These powerful attachments have turned the battlefield into a Thunderdome filled with modded-out vehicles, leading players to experiment with these new mechanics while succumbing to them at times.

This is perfectly captured in a recent Reddit clip shared by u/Just_Recognition_195, where the player can be seen in a solo match in Chapter 5 Season 3, donning the Hope Outfit and fighting an enemy using the Nitro Fists.

While the player managed to eliminate their enemy using the Frenzy Auto Shotgun, their victory was shortlived as another enemy quickly drove into their box and eliminated them.

Reddit user u/Reciter5613 stated how, since they only play the Zero Build game modes, they are able to avoid situations like the one featured in the Reddit clip.

Nitro Fists were added to the game with the launch of Chapter 5 Season 3, providing players with not only a means for melee combat but also an efficient way to traverse the map. Fortunately for players, Nitro Fists are not a rare item, since the Fists can be found in Chests and floor loot.

Additionally, if you want to go for the most powerful version of the Nitro Fists, you can find and defeat Megalo Don at the Brutal Beachhead POI to acquire Megalo Don's Mythic Nitro Fists. These Fists not only deal increased damage but also have an extra charge, allowing players more opportunities to deal damage and escape certain encounters.
