What Is Storm Surge (Fortnite)?
Storm Surge is Fortnite’s way of saying “fight or die.”
If too many players are alive during certain storm phases, the game checks who’s done the least damage. Those players start taking 25 damage every 5 seconds until enough are eliminated. It’s meant to stop camping and force aggression.
- Triggered at player thresholds (like 70, 50, 30).
- Punishes passive players.
- Encourages constant fighting and rotation.
Why It Works in Massive Minecraft Wars (100v100)
In big Minecraft battles, people love to hide, camp, or lag out the server by avoiding fights. Storm Surge would:
- Prevent stalemates by pushing passive players into combat.
- Speed up the match by auto-eliminating campers.
- Reward aggression, strategy, and teamwork.
- Keep the server cleaner, since fewer players = less lag.
