Sketch’s appearance in a Fortnite Reload ad with fellow streamer Kai Cenat, when he humorously presented the question, highlighted this term.

The second emote depicts Sketch’s signature gesture of leaning forward with an arm flap. Although usually paired with the phrase “Special teams, special plays, special players,” this emoticon employs the “What’s up, brother?” line with a different accent, providing variation to the collection.
