Long-time creator Ali-A joins the growing list of recognized figures in Fortnite's exclusive Icon Series collection.
Here's all you need to know about Ali-Icon A's Series debut.
What Is the Fortnite Icon Series?
As per the news story of esports.gg, many of the game's most iconic creators have ties to the Fortnite Icon Series, such streamers Greg "TheGrefg" Cánovas Martnez, Tyler "Ninja" Blevins, and Kathleen "Loserfruit" Belsten. The Icon Series is a badge of honor for those who have put in the time and effort to make a name for themselves in Fortnite. The Fortnite Icon Series welcomed English YouTuber Alastair "Ali-A" Aiken on May 15.
A Zero Build tournament and a Creative Mode experience are among the products of this collaboration.
The Ali-A Cosmetic
Dot ESports reported that he unveiled his cosmetic on the Fortnite Creative map to his followers.
Default, Elevated, Matroix, and Ultra-Armor Matroix Styles
Sapphire Paragon, Sapphire Paragon (Revealed), Titanium Tac, and Titanium Tac (Revealed) Styles
He revealed in his Icon Series video that he worked with the developers for almost a year to bring the cosmetic to life. He is also the first content creator in the Fortnite Icon Series to receive a glider. The Ali-Tech Plasmawings glider is part of the Icon Set, which also includes the Ali-Tech Staff pickaxe, Ali-Tech Backplate back bling, and Blue A wrap.
Ali-A encouraged the developers to include four distinct lighting options in his cosmetics designs. Rare Reaper, Uncommon Combat, Epic Insurgent, and Legendarian are the default blue, green, purple, and gold colors, respectively.
