removing the Bass Boost Gloves, Krypto Treats and Tracking Visor in Fortnite tournaments. The post did not provide a reason why they are being removed but clarified that the items will still be usable in Ranked play. Fortnite has not clarified whether this removal is temporary or permanent.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These three items all provide different use cases, but Bass Boost Gloves\u2019 removal will affect the movement of players. Replies under the post are already complaining about the loss of the item, as it is vital equipment when it comes to rotating around the map.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Heads up, Competitors!

Without the Bass Boost Gloves, the only movement options for players are dashes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It remains to be seen how large a meta change will happen due to the removal of these three items. FNCS Divisions 1 to 3 are about to happen as of the writing of this article, and this might give players an idea as to where the meta is headed.<\/p>\t\t<div class=\"spgn__social_share\"
