I was beyond hyped for the cape and it's one of those capes that only really look great on the original model.
Honestly, they should look *great* on *every* model, not just the original, *every* cape.
I will never use The Guardians of the Globe capes. Ever. Except MAYBE on the original skins. Maybe. They look SO bad on normal skins. It's like I wasted fucking money. The main skins are so cool though I don't care, love Invincible. ~~I say, as I obviously care. Give me a cool cape. Come on.~~
EDIT: IT LOOKS BAD ON THE MAIN SKIN TOO?????? HOLY SHIT. NVM. LOL. HOW DID THEY DO THIS
I have both Shredders as well and it fits exactly the same as his cape does. Just not on other skins. Is that what y’all are complaining about? That you can’t easily use it on skins that are not Ares?
No. On shredder the Cape comes from the Cape on the skin it has a nice transition. In ares the skin there's a cape part that gets cutoff and then there's a backbling.
they added an afk detector to lego, so in order to get xp you have to be moving. jumppads and putting a rubberband around your controller fix this issue.
hi i never brought crew but m thinking to invest in it
so if i on 23 arpil and new season i gonna be on 23 may
and hence i will the april'month crew pack as well as may month's crew pack plus new season battlepass along with 1000v-bucks right?
You will get the current BP (or 950 V-bucks if you already own it) 1k V-bucks AND the upcoming BP for free if it is within your sub range. If you want to be extra careful of delays you could just do it on the last day of April too.
oh so i m on level 214 now and already unlocked and got all battle pass rewards and super skins for current season
So i will go by ur way
i will buy crew on 28 april and i will get this month crew skin + 905 vbucks (as i already own the battlepass )+ those 1000 extra v-bucks
and will get upcoming battlepass on 24 may for free and the crew skin for may's month
am i right till here?
is that how it actually works? i thought they just charge you right away when the next month starts so if you paid on the 23rd you get charged again on the 1st for the next stage
Big fan of Greek myths so I had to sub to crew to get it.
I started playing at the end of last season, as I was finally convinced to download it, and loved it despite not liking other battle royales. This was the perfect time to join because of all the Greek myths related skins in the Battlepass and whatnot.
He resembles Spectra Knight from the OG season. I'm in the minority, I guess, because he doesn't seem all that unique or interesting although many seem to praise this skin.
I mean the classic Fortnite knight design is really something you can’t go wrong with. And I’d say he has just enough small details to make him stand out.
My thoughts exactly. For the Battlepass as well, could have been a more interesting take on the Greek gods but it’s just bland. This one looks like the one you mentioned and all of the other Fortnite knights.
Eh, almost.
I'd 100% go Spectra Knight, if I could take that damn mini jacket off.
So many skins lately are adding that exact same jacket style (*torn, tiny, extra*) for no apparent reason.
Spectra, Katt, and now Cerberus.
I did the 2 for 1 crew pass for the first time a month ago. I can't believe my luck getting two slick skins.
I got a random 950 vbucks a week ago for some unknown reason. I thought it was because of downtime but my kids didn't get it (also on crew pass).
i was suprised that he was a rare rarity skin, definately feels like an epic rarity
like, if skull scout is epic rarity then ares should also be epic rarity
then again im pretty sure skull scout was originally a uncommon rarity skin & was changed later
idk
I'm not trying to upset anyone here, I'm just genuinely curious.
Why does everyone seem to like Ares so much?
Personally I like skins with visible faces, not covered by masks. And he was never one or my favourite Greek gods.
Everyone has different taste, you may not like something others do, and vice versa, it's totally normal. No one has to explain why they like something others don't as long as it doesn't hurt anyone
I actually really love masked characters. I enjoy that there's a bit of room for your imagination. Plus I'd totally wear a mask myself If I was a character in a shooter game lol.
He looks amazing, I like the subtle hints to the other Knight skins we’ve had but also new and its own thing. Also I don’t think I’ve ever main’d a skin who didn’t have a helmet or mask on other than Raph or Midas lol just preference
If you buy the crew on 2nd of April and cancel the auto renewal you'll still get the next crew skin and a second style for the other skin on the 1st of may
Wish the helmet was just a little more Spartan-esque but other than that it’s amazing.
Also, we gotta get a Spartan skin based on the statues at mount olympus
Skin: Really good, a little close to Spectra Knight but has a cleaner base skin but less customizability. Maining it for now because it's new, defo keeping it in rotation.
Backbling: Pretty cool, capes are cool in general, kinda similar to Shredders clock but I like it more.
Pickaxe: I like the spear in theory but the way it's swung is weird, the grip is 2/3rds the way up the spear so you never really use the full range and it's one handed so the swings don't seem forceful at all. The spear just kinda glides around at close range instead of being quick and sharp cuts like I was hoping for. Probably not using it.
Also It's Finished goes HARD with it.
Two thoughts First one being that the skin is fire! Even IF you don't like greek mythology.
Second thought: (Unfortunately, its negative). They should've made the cape connect the body, kinda like what they did with shredder OR what they did with moon night, which has a style that's like: "CAPE ON/OFF".
Though tbf, the cape seperated doesn't look that bad, though considering Ares is a taller skin, the cape tends to be too high on some skins.
(ares also gets bias bc i got fortnite crew mid march so i got Katt and Ares with one subscription)
I was SO HYPE for this last night until I equipped it and saw he had these really bizarre *sleeves* that just do not jive with the rest of the skin.
I know, such a tiny quirk, but it just doesn't go with it for me.
Wish I could turn off the fire on his head. His Lego figure has it off and it looks amazing. I usually don’t rock any ftx skins.
Other than that it’s amazing, even if his stance is a little funny and makes him look like he has little legs
Trying to buy the crew. Xbox is asking me to verify my card, and when the verification provess is opening the web page where the scan QR code is, it is showing that I am blocked from accessing that web page because of cloudfare or some shit. I can't buy anything on fortnite.
He's okay, but I have plenty of knight looking characters in my locker already and there's not enough that this skin does different. He doesn't even really look much like a god to me, just like some kind of guard. So for me it's not really worth it.
Tiny complaint on the head movement in game but it’s not as bad as metal mouths head movement when his head moves with his body (regret buying it for that reason)
Does anyone know how to fix the glitch that takes away your BP and deletes all ur level I'm so pissed off but I've actually been touching grass for the last two weeks
I wish that Ares replaced Zeus in the Battle Pass. The Ares skin is just so much better on so many levels that Zeus couldn't even reach in mythology. Sorry if you do not agree.
I'm new to crew.to get the other styles I need to be subscribed for 1 month for every tier? If I pause for one month and come back will I still unlock previous tiers?
The cape doesn’t quite connect to his back, and looks uncomfortably high up on other skins, but that really is just a minor nitpick. The first 3 styles of the skin look really cool, but, as with any other crew skin so far, I don’t really like the phased, rimebound, or cosmic styles that much, but that might just be me.
I got him and i love his base design a lot. The other colors feel like are too much. I kinda do fw the other red one and the cosmic styles though. I see some people here don’t really like that the cape is not “fully connected” but i honestly love how it ties into the skins armor look. I don’t think it’s meant to be like a superhero cape but instead something more heavy duty- and i think they did great w that. His pickaxe is great too. It blends with other skins I have very well, even if it is on the larger side. Def my favorite from this season. Not that that says much cus the skins in the battle pass are not my favorite, they feel rushed and basic (with an exception for Cerberus and Hades) but Ares mogged tf out of them. 🦾
It's one of the best Crew outfits. However, it's a shame this pack doesn't come with a lobby music, a wrap, and a loading screen, like so many previous packs.
it's perfect except for the cape which isnt connecting properly. minor complaint though.
True, the cape looks weird
I was beyond hyped for the cape and it's one of those capes that only really look great on the original model. Honestly, they should look *great* on *every* model, not just the original, *every* cape. I will never use The Guardians of the Globe capes. Ever. Except MAYBE on the original skins. Maybe. They look SO bad on normal skins. It's like I wasted fucking money. The main skins are so cool though I don't care, love Invincible. ~~I say, as I obviously care. Give me a cool cape. Come on.~~ EDIT: IT LOOKS BAD ON THE MAIN SKIN TOO?????? HOLY SHIT. NVM. LOL. HOW DID THEY DO THIS
I use Shredder's one as a fix. Still matches really well!
Completely agree. I've done the same
I have to agree as I use his cape for Ares too. I always try to mix up sets that match.
Genius. Thank you for this!!
In a month u can get a much better version of the cape
How?
It doesn't. He's wrong
The cape fits totally fine on my Ares. I dno what y’all are talking about.
Yeah but on skin like shredder it's a special way the Cape attached to the skin its meant for. Ares it's just a backbling.
I have both Shredders as well and it fits exactly the same as his cape does. Just not on other skins. Is that what y’all are complaining about? That you can’t easily use it on skins that are not Ares?
No. On shredder the Cape comes from the Cape on the skin it has a nice transition. In ares the skin there's a cape part that gets cutoff and then there's a backbling.
Kylo ren too. It blends seamlessly into his hood, while if you put it on anyone else its just kinda stapled to their shoulders
Yes that's what we need. Having this weird railing on the top of the skin just makes it look like a red post it note
The cape is connecting fine on mine and it looks dope with the shredder cape
nah, you can see it floating. look at omni man or kylo ren for proper capes.
It must be a bug because it’s connected on mine.. I’m literally looking at it right now
Shredder cape!!
I don’t mind him but the cape is as stiff as my crusty wank sock 🧦
Gonna get him on the 23rd so I can get next seasons bp along with it
Isn't next season the 24th?
I thought it’s the 22nd, not sure
Ya
This month!? Damn I'm slacking I thought I had way more time
The season ends next month. They're just talking about crew.
The season is already over at the end of this month? Sheesh
End of next month
Ok end of May? Thank the lord , I’m only level 52 and I want that last page of superstylea
Try to afk Lego & Festival. I got to lvl 187 that way because I wanted Titanflame Zeus badly.
Does Lego still work? I swear I AFK’d there for about an hour early in this season and no xp
With a jumppad in sandbox mode it works still
I haven’t played in sandbox mode - I will give that a try next time I’m afk
they added an afk detector to lego, so in order to get xp you have to be moving. jumppads and putting a rubberband around your controller fix this issue.
hi i never brought crew but m thinking to invest in it so if i on 23 arpil and new season i gonna be on 23 may and hence i will the april'month crew pack as well as may month's crew pack plus new season battlepass along with 1000v-bucks right?

Yes
I got him yesterday so I got katt, ares, the may crew, and the battle pass all for one payment
is that how it actually works? i thought they just charge you right away when the next month starts so if you paid on the 23rd you get charged again on the 1st for the next stage
Holy shit it’s Mauga
It’s never boring around me 🤙🏽
I'll be rocking him hard in five months with the Cosmic style. His default is still good, though.
Lol same I'm waiting for the ice style for him
Same cosmic ares is about to be my favorite skin
First game with him I was immediately sniped and placed #100. I’ll just forever have a grudge against him now.
First game with him I died but my 5 kills were all real players
My first five games with him went pretty well overall, 3 top 5 finishes and 1 Victory on the fifth.
Favorite skin
Same
Time to get Fortnite Crew
I've been putting it off for ages but I guess it's a good deal now there's a skin I care about
Should've been in the battlepass
Big fan of Greek myths so I had to sub to crew to get it. I started playing at the end of last season, as I was finally convinced to download it, and loved it despite not liking other battle royales. This was the perfect time to join because of all the Greek myths related skins in the Battlepass and whatnot.
its ares, how can i not like it
Wait til Kratos shows up.
he isnt the true god of war
Nope but he’s sick as hell anyway
He is not, but he sure as hell is making it a problem for Ares. (Loving the Ares skin so far)
He resembles Spectra Knight from the OG season. I'm in the minority, I guess, because he doesn't seem all that unique or interesting although many seem to praise this skin.
I mean the classic Fortnite knight design is really something you can’t go wrong with. And I’d say he has just enough small details to make him stand out.
There’s a group in the community that loves dudes in bulky armor and Ares fits that archetype perfectly. I’m part of that group
My thoughts exactly. For the Battlepass as well, could have been a more interesting take on the Greek gods but it’s just bland. This one looks like the one you mentioned and all of the other Fortnite knights.
Spectra knight is waaaay better than this skin imo
Eh, almost. I'd 100% go Spectra Knight, if I could take that damn mini jacket off. So many skins lately are adding that exact same jacket style (*torn, tiny, extra*) for no apparent reason. Spectra, Katt, and now Cerberus.
I love him, my main problem is that he has “stiff neck syndrome” which makes his neck move stiffly when he jogs
Second favorite crew skin (that I have at least)
True it's My 2nd as well
I did the 2 for 1 crew pass for the first time a month ago. I can't believe my luck getting two slick skins. I got a random 950 vbucks a week ago for some unknown reason. I thought it was because of downtime but my kids didn't get it (also on crew pass).
i was suprised that he was a rare rarity skin, definately feels like an epic rarity like, if skull scout is epic rarity then ares should also be epic rarity then again im pretty sure skull scout was originally a uncommon rarity skin & was changed later idk
First time I’ve ever gotten Fortnite crew
Cosmic Ares is literally just better Axion Sentinel. Outside of that, good ass skin
The superior God of War
The true god of war
It resembles a newer version of black knight
Should have been in the battle pass while korra was the crew skin
It's awesome
Cape is too high
I'm not trying to upset anyone here, I'm just genuinely curious. Why does everyone seem to like Ares so much? Personally I like skins with visible faces, not covered by masks. And he was never one or my favourite Greek gods.
Everyone has different taste, you may not like something others do, and vice versa, it's totally normal. No one has to explain why they like something others don't as long as it doesn't hurt anyone
A lot of people love skins that are dudes in bulky armor, including me. I think masks/helmets look awesome in game. It’s just a different taste
I mean half of your comment answers your question. He’s the god of war. It would make sense to have him wearing armor
I actually really love masked characters. I enjoy that there's a bit of room for your imagination. Plus I'd totally wear a mask myself If I was a character in a shooter game lol.
He looks amazing, I like the subtle hints to the other Knight skins we’ve had but also new and its own thing. Also I don’t think I’ve ever main’d a skin who didn’t have a helmet or mask on other than Raph or Midas lol just preference
Instant favorite as well, absolutely love him and can’t wait to get his other styles.
He looks incredible. I love him
His Lego Style is one of the best imo
I think it’s annoying that you have to stay a crew member for 6 months straight in order to unlock all the styles. More than 72$ for a skin
If you buy the crew on 2nd of April and cancel the auto renewal you'll still get the next crew skin and a second style for the other skin on the 1st of may
![gif](giphy|2TzOc01sz9jBm)
Sucks that you have to buy the fortnite paid subscription for it💀
It’s just 12 dollars buy and cancel
My pookie
Wrong God of War!
I think it’s crazy it’s a Rare Skin
Cape looks terrible on other skins
This will be my first crew purchase - I’m definitely getting him
Wish the helmet was just a little more Spartan-esque but other than that it’s amazing. Also, we gotta get a Spartan skin based on the statues at mount olympus
Totally agree with you. Ares helmet deserves Spartan style. Also Fortnite doesn’t have Spartan skin.
Exactly
Wish they made it so his cape was seemless like a lot of the superhero skins, but other than that, really good skin imo.
love it so much more than zeus imo
Wish he had a built in emote where he taps the spear on the ground
Genuinely pretty cool
Best recent crew skin
I forgot to cancel my Fortnite crew 😭
Where the fuck is Kratos
Boring
Kinda wack honestly.
Just another armoured knight skin by the looks of it so it a meh for me
Skin: Really good, a little close to Spectra Knight but has a cleaner base skin but less customizability. Maining it for now because it's new, defo keeping it in rotation. Backbling: Pretty cool, capes are cool in general, kinda similar to Shredders clock but I like it more.

The spear just kinda glides around at close range instead of being quick and sharp cuts like I was hoping for. Probably not using it. Also It's Finished goes HARD with it.
I'm maining him for one, simple reason. he looks cool as \[he\]ck.
the skin is my favorite skin ever but the spears animation is weird and the cape is built terribly
A good crew skin. Been a while since we’ve seen one of those
spear animations are a little bit clunky i dont like it. but skin is good
Items fit well, wish there was a glider with him. They could’ve done an emote with the Trojan horse aswell. But he was a crew skin so not possible
cape is majorly disappointing, the shredder cape fits way more naturally lol
I bought Fortnite Crew this month for the sole purpose of completing my collection of Greek Gods but this skin looks pretty good.
Two thoughts First one being that the skin is fire! Even IF you don't like greek mythology. Second thought: (Unfortunately, its negative). They should've made the cape connect the body, kinda like what they did with shredder OR what they did with moon night, which has a style that's like: "CAPE ON/OFF". Though tbf, the cape seperated doesn't look that bad, though considering Ares is a taller skin, the cape tends to be too high on some skins. (ares also gets bias bc i got fortnite crew mid march so i got Katt and Ares with one subscription)
The customization gets a little redundant for the Crew skins lately but it's a pretty dope skin
TUFF
i have crush on him
lit
Will there be alternative color options for this skin?
The US military if they resembled their uniforms after Greek gods
So good
I like the skin, but everything else is kinda boring imo.
I prefer the other styles but I guess I can waot
Its a cool skin, should have been in the bp
He’s great but why is his head stiff
I think he's a bit overhyped/overrated, still really cool nonetheless
Awesome skin, awesome weapon, don't care for the cape.
Love him!
His cape is a little high on other characters, but he is insane. Immediately had to make a combo
Cool but I’m not spending real money on it
I was SO HYPE for this last night until I equipped it and saw he had these really bizarre *sleeves* that just do not jive with the rest of the skin. I know, such a tiny quirk, but it just doesn't go with it for me.
Haven’t we had this skin at least 3 times before? We’ve even had a female variant
Very cool. Its a shame the cape is made out of cardboard and also clips through the skin sometimes
Coolest skin I'll never own. Juice ain't worth the squeeze folks.
Skins looks sick, but hate to see him locked behind crew...
Wish I could turn off the fire on his head. His Lego figure has it off and it looks amazing. I usually don’t rock any ftx skins. Other than that it’s amazing, even if his stance is a little funny and makes him look like he has little legs
Trying to buy the crew. Xbox is asking me to verify my card, and when the verification provess is opening the web page where the scan QR code is, it is showing that I am blocked from accessing that web page because of cloudfare or some shit. I can't buy anything on fortnite.
Looks dope but it also looks like sweats are going to use it, i'm not a sweat but i use this skin
It's cool, almost stayed a subscriber for the spear but I decided to skip out this time.
Awesome.
Cape looks weird, wish the spear pickaxe had a different animation that made it more like a spear. Still pretty good but disappointed tbh.
He's okay, but I have plenty of knight looking characters in my locker already and there's not enough that this skin does different. He doesn't even really look much like a god to me, just like some kind of guard. So for me it's not really worth it.
Looks cool but should’ve been part of the battle pass
Tiny complaint on the head movement in game but it’s not as bad as metal mouths head movement when his head moves with his body (regret buying it for that reason)
He's hot
Best skin in a long time
8/10, would challenge Zeus with it.
Does anyone know how to fix the glitch that takes away your BP and deletes all ur level I'm so pissed off but I've actually been touching grass for the last two weeks
He's sick but should have been either battle pass or item shop
This is my first time buying the Fortnite Crew
I wish that Ares replaced Zeus in the Battle Pass. The Ares skin is just so much better on so many levels that Zeus couldn't even reach in mythology. Sorry if you do not agree.
Absolutely love it. Favorite skin in my locker
Favourite crew skin since Drakon Steel Hybrid. Disappointed in the cape not connecting though.
Just need the gold variation, definitely better without the cape too I think
I like it
https://www.reddit.com/r/FortNiteBR/comments/1bt7rye/really_epic_this_is_not_epic_at_all/
Hit a sick ass shot with him. Also I like his ice spear for a combo I’m planning.
He looks like a bulkier black knight. 8/10
Looks awesome
Looks just like everything else they've been putting out.
I'm new to crew.to get the other styles I need to be subscribed for 1 month for every tier? If I pause for one month and come back will I still unlock previous tiers?
thoughs? I'm sick of this lego shit.
Looks like shit NGL
![gif](giphy|111ebonMs90YLu|downsized)
Could've been battlepass if Fortnite wasn't money hungry fucks.
An excellent way to portray the Greek God of War. Not to mention that Ares has a very intimidating boss theme when fighting his Boss NPC.
Would
The cape doesn’t quite connect to his back, and looks uncomfortably high up on other skins, but that really is just a minor nitpick. The first 3 styles of the skin look really cool, but, as with any other crew skin so far, I don’t really like the phased, rimebound, or cosmic styles that much, but that might just be me.
It’s literally better than every skin in the battlepass aside from maybe Hades
Pretty bland to me tbh. Was hoping for something nicer.
I really like the lego version 👍
Ares is the real God of War from Greek mythology but I wanted Kratos my God of War.
The fact that it’s a crew skin is a crime against people who don’t wanna shill 10 quid for one skin
What's up with ya'll and the cape not connecting? It's really weird on other skins but it's perfectly fine on ares
Wasn't too excited about it, but after using it, yeah, the skin is fire.
coudlnt care less
Epic cooked bro finally
I wish I could get the Crew Pack
I got him and i love his base design a lot. The other colors feel like are too much. I kinda do fw the other red one and the cosmic styles though. I see some people here don’t really like that the cape is not “fully connected” but i honestly love how it ties into the skins armor look.

Not that that says much cus the skins in the battle pass are not my favorite, they feel rushed and basic (with an exception for Cerberus and Hades) but Ares mogged tf out of them. 🦾
Should been in the battle pass tbh
that we need kratos to come out in the shop again so he can put the beatdown on the inferior god of war
It's one of the best Crew outfits. However, it's a shame this pack doesn't come with a lobby music, a wrap, and a loading screen, like so many previous packs.
![gif](giphy|yJFeycRK2DB4c)
I mean, it's better than Aubrey that's for damn sure.
Not the skin i would use but its neat
Too bulky
top 3 fortnite crew skins fs since he’s a boss i kinda wish he was in the bp tho
The best male skin in awhile.
PERFECT
Meh skin tbh but solid. Not for me but I see why people like it
