Fortnite Betting?

[Casdinyard]

I like the idea of seeing fortnite added to Olympics. They can't ignore the fact that it's already a career these days. I'm an esports advocate/fan and would love to see any esports game be considered by the Olympics.

Indeed as even I myself are amazed with the community and unique idea of Fortnite, yet the biggest drawback is that the fact that Apex Legends and the new Valorant are pretty comparable to Fortnite. Comparable in ways that it all has the same idea as the CS:GO yet differs only in features such as shields, weapons, and in-game styles and plays. I said comparable because Fortnite's community rose drastically and fell down instantly as well. I'm not saying that Fortnite is already antiquated, it's just a fact that even Apex and Valorant wouldn't have that attention to be adapted by legitimate betting platforms as all of the game's idea came from CS:GO (in which CS:GO is still popular and have constant betting)

We all know that the Olympics is a showcase in which you could show off your skills in front of the whole world. It’s a sign of development in every kind of aspect, specifically in sports and electronics sports.

Fortnite isn't that famous around the world yet. Some still aren't tried playing it and it's viewers are still less compared to the top esports nowadays. And looking forward for it to be accepted in Olympics is somehow ridiculous, yet... why not right?


I've also looked up if there are Fortnite betting online, yet found only tournaments and live streams. I think it's community must increase and game strategy must improve to surpass and/or reach the peak of CS:GO and other bet-able esports games..

There are a lot of them online but I don't like betting on Fortnite or even PUBG. It is not that I dislike them, I play PUBG but in a game where a lot of players are fighting each other, it is hard to easily conclude who/which team will win. Unlike MOBAs where you can analyze a team's game and their opponents game. Like other FPS like CSGO where it is usually the popular esports to bet.

The game you mentioned has become very popular around the world in a very short time and has become the favorite of e-sports. It has been very unreasonable to have no serious betting losses in this game since the first day it was popular and there were no betting options for this game, where its broadcasts attracted great attention. I see that this option has caught the eye of service providers in order to re-activate the slowdown in the gambling industry, and has started working to provide this betting option to users. Although I do not know a company that provides betting options for this game, I would like to say that very popularly, many popular gambling companies and websites will provide this service to its users in a very short time. Gambling sector, which is in a downward trend, will start to revive in this way and many gambling companies and websites will have to provide this service due to high user demand.

The information I know about fortnite is that, it is a battle royal game with the same system such as PUBG and ROS. With fortnite being available in Esports gaming or betting, how could it be implemented? Are we going to bet to a single player that we think will win the match against tons of players? Because I saw competitive matches in CSGO and other FPS games where you can really bet for 1 team in each match. With battle royale, the system of betting is quite not clear even with teams.

In that worldcup you got points for being placed on the top, so with good RNG and only becoming 2nd or 3rd everygame you could still become the world champion. The fortnite format is just not great for Olympics.

Yes, I agree with you that there are definitely more suitable online games for Olympic disciplines. Spontaneously I can think of strategy games like Starcraft 2, although I honestly don't know if the competitive scene there is still big enough.

The luck factor is also indirectly present in other, classic Olympic disciplines like Soccer, not by drops but by referee decisions that can influence the game in one direction or another. So I don't really see a problem with allowing games that are (only to a small extent) dependent on the luck factor.

I think there aren't enough viewers in strategy games for any really large tournaments. In Asia strategy games are a bit more mainstream than in the West but still most people prefer to watch Shooters or Moba games.  Even though strategy games offer a perfect setting for competition. Most of the times its 1 vs 1 with a clear winner and loser. Personally I like strategy games, but watching pros play becomes a bit boring after a while.

Fortnite began to enjoy doing by gamers, with fortnite being available in Esports will certainly increase its popularity.
Now there are several fortnite betting that can be used, but I don't know yet whether fortnite betting support cryptocurrency
or not. But crypto fortnite betting should be available, given that cryptocurrency has been adopted for all online games.
But I agree with the opinion of most people that fortnite is not suitable for Olympics. Because of the picture quality as well
the game is still many online games are much better than fortnite.

Fortnite is ALREADY AN ESPORT and already popular. Do you have any links pertaining legitimate fortnite betting whether it does support crypto or not? The picture quality is good and was been imitated by other games such as Apex Legends  (in which Apex is somehow a Fortnite ripoff) in which Fortnite is also a ripoff of a much popular and crypto-betting accepted game Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Soon if it has a patch that eliminates similarities with other games it might be part of the Olympics.

But IMO, Fortnite is impossible to have online betting nor be accepted in Olympics. Yes, small bets in a small community is possible (adding a twitch stream of the game), but a world wide betting would be impossible.

People shifted to e-sports betting because there were no other sports in the last 2 months. However since the other sports are resuming now, most people will bet on those and leave the betting on CS:GO or PUBG. One of my colleague used to bet on https://vulkanbet.com/en/fortnite and even asked me to participate but i never listened him.

I like fortnite and it's a good game with good graphics. Since we're talking about bets, it's kinda hard to bet on which player who'll win in the game. Bettings on battle royale isn't effective, even the best player have the possibility to die at start if he don't have good loots. The chances of winning is very low since there are many players each game and it's not easy to be confident on someone you'll a bet on.

Yeah, it's true that eSports always hit in the gambling industry but not all.

The bookmaker doesn't care if a strong player wins or not. It is important for the bookmaker that the game is popular. The more popular the more bets will be placed. And given the difficult-to-predict nature of the winnings, it will be more difficult to place a bet on the winner.

[ryzaadit]

To be honest, betting for Fortnite and PUBG with survival game was really hard to predict cause there a lot player or team playing on the same match. Could be hard for us to predict and some chance to get the right betting was really low. Better to betting with a TEAM BATTLE like CSGO or DOTA when we really can predict the match. But betting on FORTNITE and PUBG until now still not seen some bookmaker who provides this betting game.

Most of them provide only DOTA 2, CSGO and LOL cause kinda popular and easy to bet.

Well, that would be true but most of the people that are betting online in these games are actually doing these wages and bets even before the lockdowns and this pandemic started. People betting on these matches might lessen but I don't call that leaving, I might call it going back to normal. Another thing is that they might consider now betting on these games so I don't think all of them will be leaving at all.

According this two news,
https://www.economist.com/leaders/2020/06/27/why-the-next-olympics-should-include-fortnite
https://techcrunch.com/2020/06/18/why-the-olympics-should-add-esports/
there is a big/huge interest to see eSPORTS like Fortnite in Olympics Games! (Starting soon with Tokyo 2021).

I was wondering.. there are official tournaments or site that give the option for bettings?
Since there are a lot of players it could be really interest try to win some bets... Any bookmaker or similar service?

The topic of counting esports as sports and including them to sport events like the Olympics is very relevant, and it became more so because the quarantine led to more attention than usual to these sports. Table tennis is an Olympic sport, and people there move not much more than gamers that have to click on the buttons with very high frequency. One of the problems about including esports is how to decide what to include or not. Why Fortnite and not CS or Dota is what I mean. And like others, I could not find Fortnite but CS:GO and Dota 2 are available for betting on Sportsbet.io, for instance. So I'm genuinely surprised they're thinking about Fortnite rather than these games.

[shoreno]

there are already gambling sites that caters esports bets   . they will include this fornite for olympics if only that were approved officialy but for now no because it was only a what if , but why fortnite ? there are other top esport games that most players prefer  .

one would be on my choice is dota ,cs go and others would be league of legends    . those games can gather more viewers and bettors  in my own opinion     .

[bitbollo]

well, first of all thanks so much for all of your replies. I think we can aspect at a certain points more eSports in Olympic games... and who knows a special edition/version dedicated only to eSports?
It sounds strange to me, I growth without these "games" or "other digital stuffs".
But probably if this is the future we should follow it and be part of this new stream.

If some one is aware, please post here any booking that allow to bet in Fortnite games with crytpocoins

I guess the regulator/regulators ignored  including the game in betting because it attracts mostly the young ones. And lots of countries do not allow alot of their young people to gamble with their money and time in physical/online casinos and betting centers. Besides, it is a violent video game and the graphics look like the real things. That is not the kind of game kids should be playing in my opinion... Combining it with betting could be addictive and more dangerous

Guess it's way, way better and so much less violent than most other games such as CS:GO where you literally stab others and have blood stains on walls. Fortnite is more focused on cartoonish graphics and non-graphic combat. Besides the fact that you have guns to shoot with, I would honestly not say it's violent for kids especially nowadays when you have CoD, CS:GO and other similar games.

and the graphics look like the real things.

Do the graphics look real to you..?

Isn't fortnite a dying game in fact even famous youtuber and game reviewer Pewdiepie hates it ? didn't they announced that that they'd be selling the game or it was getting banned by some country, if im not mistaken.

With the current downtrend in popularity of fortnite, i dont think sports bookies would be adding it in their list of betting games.

[YOSHIE]

Don't worry about the popularity of Fortnite during this pandemic, they have provided full entertainment to many of their fans such as CS: GO and Dota 2, before the viruscorona pandemic occurred, Fortnite is still popular today in the near future, if you check the game Fortnite you will find many games that are currently available, such as sports scenes, but on the other hand this will have a positive and beneficial impact on the player.

Even more interesting is: at this time they are focused on developing their latest platform in the launch of their latest competitive game, this is a sign that Fortnite has a positive sign of the best future.

I was wondering.. there are official tournaments or site that give the option for bettings?

You can see at a glance here, for the future.

The fact that one channel which happens to be the most popular one out there hates it doesn't mean the general opinion is the same. It's just the opinion of one guy. In fact, Fortnite is still going very well and had a massive ATH amount of >12M players live with a recent Travis Scott update.

Some popular channels still do Fortnite gameplays on a regular. The quite often updates also make for a good, constant high player count. I honestly think the opportunity for gambling businesses is still very, very high over there. The problem, as I said in an earlier post, is the age range of players. If most of them are kids and teens, it means they may be attracted to gambling addiction at too young ages.
