In the Reddit clip shared by u/attack-in-black, Zemie can be seen in a Competitive Duo Zero Build match in Chapter 5 Season 1, donning the Green Goblin skin and navigating Champion Oscar's home, Lavish Lair. As Zemie strategically positioned themselves in a building and equipped themselves with a sniper, they exclaimed to their stream chat and teammate that they were going to try and take a random shot into a bush.
Without hesitation, Zemie seemingly selected one random bush from the ones in front of him and took a shot on a whim. However, interestingly enough, the shot landed perfectly, delivering an accurate headshot to an enemy hiding in the random bush. This has caused a stir within the community, with players not convinced of the circumstances in which the clip took place.
The extraordinary nature of the random and surprisingly accurate headshot has raised suspicions among players, especially due to Zemie's reputation as a known hacker within the Fortnite community. Many players highlighted Zemie's storied history of cheating in the game, casting doubt on the legitimacy of the shot, with some players even flat-out declaring that they refuse to believe any of Zemie's shots are real due to his history.
Some of the most notable reactions from the community are listed below:
Amidst the player outcry, some exclaimed how Zemie is cheating blatantly now, with many pointing out that his reaction after the shot further adds to the fakeness of this seemingly impossible shot. This has led to several players calling for Epic Games to take action against Zemie, with many expressing disbelief at the fact that he hasn't been banned yet.
As discussions surrounding Zemie and his position in the community continue to get more intricate, the Reddit clip highlighting the supposedly random headshot snipe has definitely raised important questions about the integrity of Fortnite's gameplay.
