8:51 Tip 13 is actually such an underrated and probably overlooked tip by anyone. I’m surprised that this was brought up and it’s actually a great tip. If you’re trying to improve, playing and grinding when you know you shouldn’t will probably affect your mentality and performance when playing that I never thought about. Genuinely a good piece of advice not just for playing Fortnite but in general for life as well.

Thank you so much for sharing this valuable information. It is not a common topic that people talk about, and the aspects you mentioned in the video were very useful. After watching your video, I checked my DPI and realized it was actually 400, not 800 as I had thought. This helped me identify what was causing my low sensitivity - I had 400 DPI and 7 in-game sensitivity. Additionally, the software you mentioned in the video was very helpful, and I have already started using it. One thing you forgot to mention was pre-editing, which is also an important aspect to consider. ps i used Grammar (thats why i sound like a bot)

bro thins video is ridiculously good, hes even talking about things that no one else does, like ive never heard a fn content creator/pro tell us about minimising distractions before playing by completing tasks. Hes literally getting us better at not only fortnite but at being a well organised individual when it comes to life. Im hopefully going to get a pc next year if i can get good results in my gcses so ive been doing research on building one because i play on a PS so i know nothing about them, and now i know a lot about the things he was talking about when it came to setting up your PC by tweaking different settings to improve performance. This is also another thing which isnt talked about enough by most content creators, and is another reason as to how good this video really is. im honestly so surprised i wasnt expecting this and i havent even finished the video yet

also another thing for players with 120+ ping is to play defensively and slowly bc if knowing that the enemy has less ping than you...playing slowly might catch them of guard and give potential opportunities to win the fight and will make you better on lower ping as well.

Hey @marrentm I like the bit ab the aim tension thing, I forget the name of the video but it's from a pro aim coach for val and he talks about tension management and how it applies to different aim styles based on ur game, so like jn games like val you would on avg have a higher tension, because they use more clicking and flicky movements, whereas a game like apex or arena shooters you should almost have no tension in the mouse and how it's needed for some actions vs others

You are right about having unique skills. I have (for pros) a very average build and edit skills but my medium and long range aim is way above average along with my strategical thinking which is why my friends call me “The master mind” you have to have a unique skill set to play your way and control the game your way. I do it with my mind and aim. I use my aim to pin players and effectively flank in my own way.

i agree on almost everything except one point and its the sensitivity, if u look at stats most pro players are close 48-64 edpi whit very few going far away from that range, so i would recommend a sensibility of that range, event tho for some people its low its proven to work since majority of pros are using that( that would be arround 800dpi 6-8%) edit: you will be suprised how many people have their wireless mouse set up wrong, plugging the wirless usb directly to the back of the pc instead of pc -> cable -> dongle -> wireless usb that is a massive difference that a lot of people dont do

I have a few common issues in my games: 1) I have bad internet and my ping spikes at random 2) I get a lot of lag 3) I play on console which means I’m fighting opponents who are also on console and have some form of aim assist 4) I agree that if you’re weak, try and do some counter damage to get the other player to back off, however, I’ve had multiple cases where the other player is still weak and will still push me instead or healing which then takes me by surprise and I die. One important tip I’ve learned from pros is strategic awareness near the end game: find high ground to spray at everyone else below or claim a bottom layer to not get focused on, look for 3rd party opportunities, and always stay on front side of zone so you can look back and spray everyone on backside.

Marren, some research has showed that 1600 onwards has the least input delay, 800 dpi is signicantly inferior when it comes to input lag, so people should infact change to atleast 1600 because there are benefits to it.Of course 800 dpi is better than 400, but 1600 is still better than both and onwards doesnt have a huge difference.
