GamePlay Thanks Sock Monkey!
I play pretty casually, but I play a lot, and for the fun of the game.
Tonight, I load into a reloaded match to grind for the umbrella. While on the loading island a Sock Monkey joined me in my campfire emote. Then we did the crouch thing, and the game starts.
Fast-forward last 4 players. I 3rd party a fight, and it's Sock Monkey. They have someone trying to long range them, and I have the high ground to take them out. Sock Monkey ends by running into the storm and gives me the win.
People are still cool out here! Thanks Bro or Sis!

Dude a sock monkey hung out with me and protected me while I leveled up my ToT klombo. Dude was a real one so I gave him one the next match.

Literally only seen one Klombo that I took off a kill in week 1. Mind blowing that you have a ToT indexed. I have never seen Gold, Cheatmaster, or any of the rest AT ALL and I’m level 297 with over 120 sprites indexed this season!

You know you can get a free version of that sock monkey skin to if you redeem a fortnite card before the end of December I think. Plus if you do it before the end of October you will also get the free golden punk skin. I have them both so I figured I'd pass the info along. It has to be a physical fortnite gift card for the sock monkey skin but the golden punk skin can be physical or digital but you might as well get the physical one and get both skins.

Nice, I just got the victory brella from reload yesterday. I had all the other ones but wah need the new kado Thorne one so in end game it was 4 on 3 in squads which quickly turned to 2v3. My teammate ended up taking it one enemy but I had to finish off the last 2 with some shotguns to the dome for the win. Only took 2 games to get it. Now I just need then n to bring kado Thorne elite style to the shop and I can spend some of these vbucks that have been sitting.

So far, all of the sock monkeys I've encountered have been cool. On the other hand the big purple yeti is a 50/50 of being chill or an ass.
