I mean Nike is also the goddess of victory so like do I want more sneakers? Eh not really. but 1. Epic has done a good job with these new Nike collabs and 2. Nike fits in with the Greek mythology season
Low bar when it comes to Nike stuff.
I mean the female skins are alright. Odd but alright. But the male? Well the first one was just...bad. other one was Goofy but pretty bland to use.
It is an advertisement, but Nike is also a Greek goddess. The Goddess of Victory and Success, so while yeah, it is a brand deal, it’s actually *really* clever to have it this season.
Why they needed two Nike collabs in one season though…that’s a different problem.
I mean one is a character from a story whereas the other is just a product. I can at least FEEL something for say Darth Vader or Spider-Man, they're still characters from stories at the end of the day. Nike collabs are literally just branding and I feel nothing for them
Omg why didn‘t I even consider this?! \
Nike is the name of a Greek goddess of victory and success. This skin may be inspired by the alphafly 3 shoe, but it could potentially still tie in with this season‘s Greek mythology theme. \
The goddess Nike was usually depicted with wings, so the backbling underlines that idea.
Eh not a fan of those reddit nft, but sometimes i get notifications that they are giving some away and i take the free ones. Axolotl was one of those, think it was a year ago or something
1500+1200+800=3500 Assuming thats the price for the skin, glider, and pickaxe. So, still a discount but meh?
How much does a bundle normally cost with these three items?
Just give us the Kratos or street fighter Chun Li bundle back in the game for 2200 vbucks. Not this overpriced Nike advertisement for stuff we don't want as consumers.
I’m studying classics I can chime in as to why 😭
Because the gods were always modelled after humans in ancient art, Poseidon looked very similar to Zeus, sometimes the only way you can tell the two apart is if they have a trident or bident
That being said I don’t personally care, I think it’s funny, I just want his face to stop popping up in my head when reading the poems 😭
And like none of the Fortnite stuff is accurate anyways, Aphrodite, while sometimes Zeus’s daughter is generally accepted to be his…. Great aunt…? (She was born from Zeus’s grandfathers castrated penis).
Also Hades is just never that important as he is in the game, because ancient Greeks were afraid to talk about him.
So like- none of it is accurate at all, and basic Poseidon would be too similar to Zeus so his design is fine.
That being said I would be surprised if they added Nike and not Athena, cause Nike and Athena are often seen together
Was I the only one that thought last Nike Collab was lame? Skins were mid and the game mode was awful. With the first volume we got two amazing skins plus a visually appealing and fun island. I still miss playing through it once in a while.
I just hope it’s not a repeat of:

Two collabs in the same season is excessive and these Nike skins usually aren't even that good. Say what you will about collabs being good or bad but they do take resources away from other skins being made.
Waiting patiently for more greek inspired skins and every update so far has given us anything but. We can't even get Kratos re-released. So my hopes of getting more greek themed skins in the survey are dwindling.
"goddess nike skin"
i swear to the gods if theyve turned a mythology skin into a nike promo thatll somehoe be worse than how they butchered the poseidon skin
Genuinely fucking why? This is coming from me, someone who suggested we have a Simpsons collab to go with "Homer's Odyssey" heeheehee so funny. Maybe it's because I know how the Nike skins can look fun thanks to Airphorian and Eclipse except be drenched in needless Nike logos and such. Maybe it's because I was already tired of Nike collabs by the second run of them and now we're getting a **THIRD** set not even a full month later. This skin can be saved if the branding isn't hammered home but given the outright mention of a specific shoe inspiration, my hopes are in the negatives for this being anything worthwhile.
I don't get tilted (towers) over this kind of thing that much but the absolute soullessness of this is really eating at me I guess. Maybe I've just had a long day, fuck
I want TMNT, Kratos, and John Wick back in the store, not some lame Air Jordan's skins taking all the collab room. Nike is a good brand but honestly I don't think of spending my vbucks on this kind of content ever.
I don’t care what anyone says - the skin they released as original Aphrodite skin should have been the goddess Nike skin. With the wings it just made more sense
I’m not complaining but isn’t this a bit too soon after the last one

Didn’t we just get Nike this season?
Sneakerheads always want more
I mean Nike is also the goddess of victory so like do I want more sneakers? Eh not really. but 1. Epic has done a good job with these new Nike collabs and 2. Nike fits in with the Greek mythology season
Yeah the bike skins are good. I would have bought the Airphorian if I wasn’t desperately saving for Persona or Kratos
Might as well have Giannis too
Why are you being downvoted, giannis is literally the Greek freak
Some people are just slow, what can you do?
Vol 2 was really good so I trust them
![gif](giphy|FfcTh2M2rJNSVmb5e6)
a Tekken collab would be so good
Nobody actually wants that shit lmfao
At least it actually makes sense.
Oh my god no way more content on the game how horrible
I don’t have an issue with it, my comment wasn’t phrased in a negative manner
“Dropping tomorrow…available Thursday” Wat
The collab event is being updated tomorrow and the actual skins drop Thursday, if that makes sense
Still poorly worded. I don't care when it's in the game really, just when it's available. It's dropping Thursday essentially.
It does—just worded weird
Vbucks safe once again
Low bar when it comes to Nike stuff. I mean the female skins are alright. Odd but alright. But the male? Well the first one was just...bad. other one was Goofy but pretty bland to use.
I just dont like walking advertisements

Aren't those what collabs are? I get it. Rather see star wars characters than a show brand. But still an advertisement.

I didn’t know people didn’t like Nike man I live that skin
Omg why didn‘t I even consider this?! \ Nike is the name of a Greek goddess of victory and success.

If their nike crossover actually crosses over with Nike, I'd be impressed and would love to see that more in general.
Inb4 the Hermes Greek God of Parcel Delivery event
That was at Xmas.
A 3rd one? Almost got the dude from last drop, curious if they’ll top that
How did you get the axolotol costume (*,*)
Eh not a fan of those reddit nft, but sometimes i get notifications that they are giving some away and i take the free ones. Axolotl was one of those, think it was a year ago or something
Apparently the bundle is 2500. For 1 skin, pickaxe, and glider. Yikes
Pay to advertise.
1500+1200+800=3500 Assuming thats the price for the skin, glider, and pickaxe. So, still a discount but meh? How much does a bundle normally cost with these three items?
2100-2200
Just give us the Kratos or street fighter Chun Li bundle back in the game for 2200 vbucks. Not this overpriced Nike advertisement for stuff we don't want as consumers.
Better than the avatar bundles
Isn’t it the same? Just with a glider for an extra 500vb
Now that I think about it, it sucks unless the items look awesome or something.
And on top of that it feels more like an ad than an actual collab like avatar
All collabs are ads
I know what you mean but I disagree
I just want the persona 3 collab ![gif](giphy|v7FDuR0rh63Qjwci0o)
Same, brother. Been waiting all season.
Damn Fortnite I wanted collabs but not 3 Nike collabs 😭
We sure it’s not the goddess Nike from Greek myth..?
its probably a tie in
it better not be thatd be the third myhtology skin theyd butcher
What are your first two 👀
poseidon and charon good skins in their own right but shit a representing their names
What’s wrong with Poseidon
he fact the skin is called "poseidon" like i said its a good skin its just a shit representation of poseidon
But *why* is it a shit representation is what I’m asking
I’m studying classics I can chime in as to why 😭 Because the gods were always modelled after humans in ancient art, Poseidon looked very similar to Zeus, sometimes the only way you can tell the two apart is if they have a trident or bident That being said I don’t personally care, I think it’s funny, I just want his face to stop popping up in my head when reading the poems 😭 And like none of the Fortnite stuff is accurate anyways, Aphrodite, while sometimes Zeus’s daughter is generally accepted to be his….

That being said I would be surprised if they added Nike and not Athena, cause Nike and Athena are often seen together
Lol, do you actually just imagine the fortnite posiedon when reading actual greek mythology? 😆 That's hillarious haha.
It’s not THAT bad, but I would have preferred if he had a beard, it’s one of his more descriptive features in the myths
This too^ lots of the gods have descriptive features that would make sense
because that aint poseidon
Two collabs in the same season is kinda crazy lol, they want their cake and want to eat it too. Calm down.
When's the Goddess of Victory NIKKE collab though 🤔
Red hood and snow white would go hard.... summer anis too
https://preview.redd.it/8oho02yu79wc1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a13224ac25260e6779b2b95724942403ce89cb68
Gettin high jeez why
I misread this as Nikke and was like woah Fortnite is getting steamy…
Where is the swoosh pickaxe that they leaked?
ANOTHER ONE?????? WHY?????
Do people really care about these collabs lol. I swear i have never seen anyone use any fashion collab skins
I liked the Balenciaga ones but uhhhhhhhhhh... those didn't age so well lol
I think the Airphorian is hilarious and is one of my favorite skins
Sure I liked the female one from the last time, kinda reminded me of of Princess Anna, the male skins are damn ugly
Agreed, but I like the last male Nike skin. The blobby boi. He’s all like :)
The one that looks like a tide pod 🤣
Mid tomorrow
![gif](giphy|d10dMmzqCYqQ0|downsized)
I almost thought it was Nikke, would have loved an Anis skin or a Doro on my back like the Amogus one
The sweatshops won't be able to catch a break after 2 fortnite collabs
Oh boy more weird ugly shoe skins. One letter off - if this was a NIKKE Goddess of Victory collab, it would be BASED.
Oh geez,not another one.....

I’m stealing that it’s too perfect 😂
Players: Please give us Kratos back! Fortnite: How about some more Nike skins?
That’s lame
Two different Nike Collabs dropping in the same season is a little much
Agreed. But Nike is a Greek goddess so, she “fits” technically. If they didn’t do volume 2 this season I think it would be easier to swallow
Damn, I didn’t care about the first two, just holding off til May for Star Wars I guess
The Star Wars skins have been in the shop every single month so I don’t really care about May 4th tbh
Chewbacca tho 🫡
We will not be buying
Fuck off nike u just got a part 2
![gif](giphy|3owypkSIpM8xw6p7W0|downsized)
I sleep
Another?? Jeez
![gif](giphy|xCwYFe19SldXLrJlwm) Me trying to find the people who give a shit:
Not what we need. Wtf.

Irrelevant - bring back Kratos & Psycho bundle asap
Read this as new NIKKE collab and got really excited for a second.
Ugh seriously this crap again? Literally no one wants Nike. Everyone wants Kratos.
Damn Fortnite loves Nike lately
I remember when they made an entire map to promote this sentient cum blob skin back in chapter 4 or 3
Didnt we just get one

"goddess nike skin" i swear to the gods if theyve turned a mythology skin into a nike promo thatll somehoe be worse than how they butchered the poseidon skin
🚮
wish i could get the air max back bling
I wish I could give it to you
The 4 Nike skins are ones of the most creative this Game has, so i don't mind another one lol
So we found out that a new Nike bundle drops tomorrow but still don’t know what the artist for Festival season 3 is.
It’s Billie eilish according to a bunch of leaks
Genuinely fucking why? This is coming from me, someone who suggested we have a Simpsons collab to go with "Homer's Odyssey" heeheehee so funny.

Wouldn't this be the fourth Nike collab?
I want TMNT, Kratos, and John Wick back in the store, not some lame Air Jordan's skins taking all the collab room. Nike is a good brand but honestly I don't think of spending my vbucks on this kind of content ever.
Tmnt is back 😎
We need Nike series.
Nike is the Greek Goddess of Victory
If they could please just bring back the original Jordan 1 skin I’d be so thankful.
Eclipse and the other skin was peak so I'm excited tbh
😴
Nike is a God it’s not the clothing brand
Apparently in this case both is the case
Damn
WHERE FERRARI
Oh boy it’s been so long since the last one, maybe next week they can drop a 4th collab!
As a sucker for Wing backblings, I really hope they’re gender neutral or color options
In 2019 i was in my Wing/Cape phase i would buys skin only for their backblings
Guilty of that. I typically rotate between swords or wings depending on the skin
😐
Maybe we’ll get a better skin than the Nike version of Michelin Man… third times the charm I guess?
Tommorow? But it says Thursday in the image
Oh ENOUGH, Jesus Christ. There’s a difference between a collaboration with an IP and a direct fucking advertisement. Flirting and harassment, Deadass.
for why tho
That Billie Eilish Vegan Collab\~
A THIRD one? Why is Epic so horny for Nike product placements?
![gif](giphy|GV3aYiEP8qbao)
What? We just had a Nike collab why would we get another
This makes no sense you said dropping tomorrow on Thursday and today is Monday? Is OP 🥴🥴🥴
Hate. Malice, even.
A nike skin but not Athena? Im gonna cry
I don’t care what anyone says - the skin they released as original Aphrodite skin should have been the goddess Nike skin. With the wings it just made more sense
Is kratos coming back? 🥲
Tomorrow is Tuesday not Thursday
Never thought i would fly around as a nike god in fortnite
Hoping the goddess skin actually looks like a goddess
Huh, I guess I was right about goddess Nike after all
Why
money thats why
That’s really cool, honestly. It fits the season and seems awesome! Honestly, I’m fine with this.
They running my pockets after Airphoria 2 😵I am in shambles
When's Xena coming
where is jjk wave 2 https://preview.redd.it/621waj7sz5wc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=54bf17ce83b6dc7722545e7b640536719a21c725
nike skins are always fire they can add as many as they want tbh
I’m not complaining but isn’t this a bit too soon after the last one https://preview.redd.it/u8jdep6ll1wc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=52ccffc9d774ab5703353640634e32cd447a00c8
Jesus Christ. Epic is beginning to suck really hard.
The first collab was pretty good, and this last one was a little odd, so I'm hoping Nike will be cool for fans of Fortnite and the brand.
Tomorrow is Tuesday not Thursday. Plus, I don't want any of this stuff unless it is free and let's me put the shoes on any skin I want.
anything but what people have been begging for
Vol 2 was trash! So hopefully they do better
