The popular online multiplayer action Fortnite: Battle Royale, presented by the American developer Epic Games on September 26, 2017, attracts the attention of users with bright content. The mechanics of the shooter consists of competitive battles (both singles and doubles), group battles, completing missions and tasks.
By completing different missions, Battle Royale gamers receive rewards in the form of experience points, rare types of weapons, and unique skins. Winning or losing, users use emotional gestures that complete one of the completed stages. One of these is Take the L.
Meaning of “Teik ze El”
Musical emoji gestures are used by players in the Royal Battle in case of victory or defeat, emphasizing the current mood of the gamer.
The collection of dances in Fortnite is constantly updated, and some of them “go to life.”
For example, the “Accept Your Loss” dance, invented by Irish game designer Brendan Green in 2018, is now often performed by famous football players who have defeated rivals.
Description of the Take the L emote
The Take the El emote was given as the 31st level of the Battle Pass in Fortnite Season 3: Battle Royale. It belongs to the rare type. If you see in the game a dancing skin of a girl or a young man with his hand pressed to his head and his index finger raised up and thumb laid aside, it means that you have peeled in the battle and must come to terms with your defeat. A playful melody and a goofy dance call for a humorous attitude to the pocket.
After all, there are many interesting and difficult tasks ahead, after passing which you yourself will be able to hook the defeated enemy.
How and where to get a dance
The Teik ze El emote first appeared in the Battle Royale in Season 3. She was given out for reaching the 31st level of the Battle Pass. Gamers immediately appreciated the design of the skin and the musical composition that accompanies the ironic dance. After the presentation in the game, the “Accept your defeat” gesture became popular with athletes as well. So, the striker of the Spanish team Atlético, Frenchman Antoine Griezmann, after scoring a goal, performed it, laughing at the players of the Lisbon football club Sporting.
Those who did not manage to get Take the El for the 31st level of the Battle Pass can subscribe to the popular channel or blog of one of the Battle Royale gamers and become a participant in the drawing of free prizes, which may include the famous Take the L dance.
What it looks like in Fortnite
In the adventure shooter Fortnite: Battle Royale, the “Accept Your Defeat” emote is represented by dancing skins. They throw their legs in different directions to the orchestral music, pressing the raised hand to the forehead. At the same time, the index finger of the hand is raised up, and the thumb is set aside, which graphically resembles the capital English letter L. The word The Lose itself means “defeat”. This is now a popular, frequently used gesture that has resonated outside of the game.
