How does OMD work?

If you’ve watched the AoT anime, you probably know now that it can launch the users into the air and grapple onto something. In Fortnite, much of the mechanics work similarly to the anime. You can catapult yourself into the sky, attack other players, and then launch back into the air.  If you’re a fan of other movement shooters such as Titanfall, you could find this way of playing Fortnite familiar. It’s also interesting because the battle royal has seemed to be moving slowly towards becoming a movement shooter. With additions like Webslingers from Spider-Man, the game itself has seemingly taken on a new form.
