Fortnite players' worlds come crashing down after realizing 'Shield Potions' are a hot drink

Gulping down the blue Shield Potions in Fortnite is a feeling every player is acquainted with. The refreshing feeling of getting a few more shield points after an exhausting fight is something everyone enjoys.

Players have always thought that chugging a Shield Potion would feel like drinking a cool icy slurp. Moreover, the speed with which players drink shields could only indicate that it was a cool drink. Unfortunately, the description of the Metal Team Leader skin is going to disappoint everyone who thinks so.
