Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 “Runners” is here, and it’s brought a completely revamped Sprite system that’s changing how you play every single match. 6Sprites are one of the most unique and important mechanics this season — these small companions provide powerful passive abilities that help players during a match.3 The biggest feature of Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 is Sprites. Unlike their implementation in Chapter 6 Season 1, you can now collect them permanently and carry them over to future matches.
But with 610 Sprites currently available, some are clearly more valuable than others. So which ones should you prioritize? Let’s break it down.\

Top 5 Best Sprites to Use Right Now
1. 🔥 Fire Sprite — Best for Aggressive Players
6 The Fire Sprite is one of the best offensive Sprites this season. Its ability creates a fiery burst whenever you deal enough damage to an enemy. 1 The burst of fire is great for finishing off an enemy, especially if you need to reload.
2. 😈 Demon Sprite — The Siphon King
6 Whenever you eliminate an opponent, the Sprite gives health and shields back to you, just like the siphon mechanic in older seasons. In duos or squads, this can be very valuable as it allows you to push constantly. 6 Late-game storm circles often end up in chaotic fights happening one after another. Having free health and shield restoration in such situations can completely change the outcome.
3. 👻 Ghost Sprite — The Stealth Savior
6 The Ghost Sprite might sound simple on paper, but it can be surprisingly powerful. This creature gives a cloaking effect whenever you reload a weapon. Reloading is usually a vulnerable moment and the cloaking effect helps reduce that risk by making you significantly harder to spot.
4. ⚡ Zero Point Sprite — The Ultimate Clutch
7 While it might be rare, the Zero Point Sprite is definitely involved in the meta. You can pause a fight just by healing, as you’ll have a shield to protect you while you med-up. 9 It’s the clear number one — healing while protected is massive in any game mode.
5. 🌍 Earth Sprite — Best Early-Game Pick
6 The Earth Sprite focuses on loot rather than combat. 10 It suits players who land hot for loot and crack open as many chests as possible. The extra chance at rare items helps you walk away with stronger gear.
How to Collect & Level Up Sprites
9 Sprites can’t simply be picked up and used immediately like in Chapter 6. When you find one on the map, you’ll need to bring it to an Extraction Point to add it to your collection. 4 Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 has also introduced Sprite Dust. According to Epic Games, this is a “currency that powers your collection in future matches.” 1 Once your Sprite reaches level 5, you should extract it at the nearest Extraction Site. This permanently locks it at level 5, mastering the Sprite.
