The Most Complete Fortnite Ninja Heroes Guide - Swordmaster

Swordmaster is really a Ninja Hero subclass and at present the only Ninja to become accessible inside the highest rarity, mythic. Swordmaster does not scale nicely. There's a requirement that you simply kill 1 Husk each 4 seconds in an effort to keep his damage up. That 'kill' also calls for you to finish them off with a melee ability, if they die from any other damage (e.g, trap, teammate shoots the husk) then he doesn't get the advantage.
