Great survey of different tactics! Love the style of organizing them into “animal” archetypes. Good point that the best players have the skills to play any style and can switch between them. I’m going to try to learn more Viper Style tactics since I have been taking fights indiscriminately lately.

Another great video, Toby! I think I may slowly be adapting the Tiger style. Im a long way from where I could be, but that's okay. This video also taught me that we don't have to become the dragon to be good at the game. Thank you!

[@kscott1459]

I would say I am a tiger but in lower levels like a baby tiger lol great video toby!!

I think you are also a baby dragon 😂😊

[@rickgiesler2891]

I always enjoy how you layout the videos. Very well explained.

[@ShaneCarrigan]

I play like a viper with just a touch of tiger. I average around 10 eliminations per game, and rotate a lot, always moving, but not hunting down fights. I don't like to camp, it's boring, so I'm more likely to encounter fights because of high-rotation but they are most always defensive (unless I am 4x scope third partying). I try to begin games by dropping at a location I know very well, but isn't always hot (i like Rebels Roost), try my best to get a gatekeeper with drum for slot 1, and then waterbending/war-forged AR/thunderburst SMG for slot 2. for early and mid game I like slot 3 to be a DMR with 4x. then heals/bunks/shocks for slot 4 and 5. (i leave the wings alone entirely) When 10 players are left I switch my DMR for Chains of Hades as it is so good for close-range end-game fights. I prioritize constantly getting in zone early and getting very good cover and not initiating fights unless they are AI or a sure thing. I employ the come and find out strategy quite a bit. When a fight starts I move around a lot, and put on a lot of pressure. When game is down to 3 remaining players, I try to let the last two remaining players fight each other by being stealthy, and then using Chains of Hades for the last fight, and with that strategy I have been winning almost every other game. 95% of the time I am top two and If I lose it was a very even/close 1v1.

[@carloscollazo6418]

That's that kind of playstyle I need to start doing.

[@carloscollazo6418]

I need to play like that too

[@VGCMarrell]

Toby, this video has been extremely helpful, hopefully there are more playstyles you can talk about for no build!

[@JonathanHolt1988]

I've not done any research or strategic planning before watching this video, but the Viper play strategy describes my gameplay PERFECTLY.

[@kbb_bbk]

This video was so great! Was playing some great games with my younger cousin over the weekend, picked up a couple dubs in a row. Your lessons carried me to victory! I was landing some nasty damage and elims in midrange solely because I kept right side peek and my opponents didn’t.

[@DieterBohlen-v9f]

„please dont unsubscribe“ 😂

[@TheRepublicJediYT]

I play most like a viper. I always try to position myself and get the best loadout, most of my engagements are played in viper style but more aggressive

[@cartoonistjack]

I apologize for being a giant nerd, but I think this is a viable style I’ve been using that has given me a lot of success. I’d encourage you to try it. I call this method Bull Style in the vain of the naming convention. The goal of Bull is to use an SUV to cause as much damage to other players as possible. Seems straight forward, but not so much. In order to do this, you need an ally to man the guns as you will be focused on driving. SUV with grenades, bulletproof tires and spiked bumper is the best (Don’s SUV is even better). Once you build your bull, look around for fights on the map between other players. Then use your turbo boost to ram into other players while your ally rains down a storm of grenades. You will catch so many players off guard who are focused on combat strategy against the player they were already fighting. You will eliminate A LOT of players if done correctly. I almost always make it to the top 3 and have had my fair share of victories as a Bull. Some drawbacks and tips: Know the map and where your gas stations are. When you get below half your vehicle’s damage, it’s time to refuel and repair. Use your turbo boost to get out of a fight quickly if necessary. You can always come back later when you’re ready. The Bull doesn’t stand their ground, they catch players off guard and charge away when in danger. When safe to do so, check the loot of eliminated players. You probably won’t be able to use your car when there is only two players left. I’ve eliminated players who drop legendary weapons that have been essential to a victory at the end game. Reiterating, you really need an ally for this method. This works best if you know where allies spawn and recruit one ASAP. Always be moving. If you stop, especially in a fight, another player can easily steal your vehicle. If you lose your vehicle, you and your ally will need to fight your opponents on foot until you can get another SUV. Make sure you have weapons at least at the purple tier if needed. Watch out for that darn Magneto power. If someone is REALLY good with it, run. Chances are, another player will take them out. If you’re down to only two players, it might be worth it to abandon the bull and use your legendary weapon against someone using Magneto Power. Anyway, I might not have been the person to discover this method, but I haven’t seen anyone else mention it yet. Give it a try and drop a comment! Happy Fortniting! 🙂

[@GODsSPECTRE]

I definitely play as a tiger. Adapting my playstyle depending on the terrain. And who I'm fighting.

[@JamalGleeson]

I like Tiger and play with all three styles in my heart really. I call it Wolf Style, bloodlust is there, instinctively know where people are/going to be, let them tire themselves out with fights with others then just cull teams left right and center. You don’t know the wolf is there, you know it is on the map somewhere but you don’t know they are in deadly range until you hear death upon you. Of course wolves almost never hunt solo, either using that third/fourth/fifth party tactic of using other teams to weaken your targets for you OR kill your targets then go hidden/silent once more into the shadows. The most important aspect, are there more of them or just one and they are making you think there are more of them. I guess in militaristic sense you can call it a sniper build but in animal terms wolf is a fun spirit to embody.

[@maptinx4130]

Love that video man. Such cool way to explain different ways to enjoy and win games. I've been a viper my whole fortnite "career" since chapter 1 season 3. Sometimes i do play agressive but only when i damage enemies before getting into close shotgun combat. I rely on my Nemesis or DMR shots.

[@shad0w7x56]

Honestly, I just play mole style. I hide in structures when I feel I should, then peak out of holes to catch opponents off guard. If I’m met with dragon lvl aggression I’ll dip, though if I have team mates with me, I’ll bear my claws. I just made that mole style stuff up cause everyone else is, though you can just call me a viper bro.

I just camp in bushes and I can't seem to get better/apply creative skills to Actual Games. My goal is to get to Unreal and play like a Dragon or Tiger. If you have any tips, that would be helpful. Thanks!

[@sweetsunshine6476]

Practice pushing with ranked mode turned off. Or get used to close combat in creative maps like 1v1 or the pit. You hesitate cause you lack confidence, which is cause you lack experience. Dont be afraid to make mistakes and die. Just keep trying and you will surely improve! If you can't figure out what you're doing wrong, go to your replays and see what happened. Watch from your opponents pov too. You got this!!

Nothing beats the RottenTwinkies playstyle...period.

[@claudemcgarren]

If it's ok i ask i would really appreciate a video on more Vipers, i come from and do very well in Battlefield and the first MW remake. In those games and now in Fortnite I tend to have a focus on ars, pistols, and smgs I'm primarily a mid a ranger. I've made it to Elite and am trying to keep a focus on playing like I'm in those mentioned games, like a Viper player, like that Tfue video you did. Not jump shotting all the time like some do, not panicking and moving around way too much and losing my aim when i don't need to evade like that, being ready. And it's not that i don't push fights and try to get 3rd parties but i push when i should be keeping my range and need to break that habit like you mention and do it smarter.

[@OldManLocello]

Thank you for the video. I have been struggling with finding a play style, this video helped me understand how I have been losing against different player types. Thanks again.

[@hoomakoa]

Thanks for this! I find that I play, mainly like a viper, but as I’ve gotten more comfortable with the game, have grown into a little bit of a tiger. I’d like to merge these styles and create a cobra category.

top tier video here. I love watching Z play and Ive tried the dragon playstyle to some success but its not how I naturally play or enjoy this game, I prefer to outsmart my opponents

[@AngryLlama87]

You're absolutely right. This is a very nerdy topic 😅In all seriousness, thank you for the hard work on the content :)

[@1000milesaway-pt5cg]

Did you mention that the dragon style is often the type of player who has a very large ego and becomes toxic when things don't go his way??? I've noticed that.

[@ReadTheR00M]

Just found the channel, and I already enjoy and appreciate all the helpful tips and commentary! I’m currently Unreal in ZB, utilizing the “Snake” style, prioritizing end game, and keeping tabs on everyone and where they might be/will be, I always just thought of it as having a tactical approach

[@JaStorm561]

I’ll say I have the tiger playstyle currently because I can be aggressive but I know that I need to run away and knowing that one player is knocked or weak is something that can bait the other team. I know I can come off as a dragon since I love the close combat, but I find myself having that mid range pressure and I always carry 3 weapons with movement and the fizz

[@hominho8243]

How difficult will it be to train this "dragon" style of play on mobile, obviously not impossible, but how difficult will it be?

[@DontStopMeGaLo]

Similar to your concept of Dragon, Tiger and Viper playstyles, there's a theory made by an FGC (Fighting Games Community) player named Laugh, describing three types of players: Brains, Heart and Body. Brains AKA Viper - Smart and strategic players with the baggage of knowledge of the game, that tend to calculate every move to achieve goals with minimal risks. Heart AKA Tiger - emotion-driven players, that like to do mind games and making reads, during the heat of the match. Body AKA Dragon - a type of players, known for their physical capabilities, which in a game like Fortnite, a good aim and movement. A most straight forward one. In a perfect scenario, all three attributes are required to be a good video game player, although it's impossible to completely embody all of the types, or just one of them. That's sorta how in RPGs, characters have different stats. So, just like how players can switch between different styles in your concept, players in Laugh's theory tend to be close to a certain type, while having something from others.

Im a Viper , But a little bit of a tiger. I’m a very strategic player, I like to kill and damage from a distance. Taking them by surprise. Before I push. My team is the same we push as a unit. I really think about what I’m going to do before hand. How I’m going to attack, my escape plan if it goes side ways, then execute. Key positioning, Same with preparation for rotation, mid and end game. With this we win more than we lose. Lead my team to over 250 wins this season. 117 crowns.

[@Dinodude-u7f]

I made my own style called the ghost style. It’s a combination between dragon and viper. I do my best to stay hidden until someone tries shooting at me then I show no mercy so far it’s worked out a lot right now. I’m gold three and at my next match, I’ll be platinum one. Also, I could really use some help with training. The only thing I can hit shots with is either a sniper or shotgun.

[@Raptus2018]

I think dragon in the early game, tiger in the mid, and viper in late game, at least in pubs because there’s no downside so might as well be aggressive early and then play more carefully as the lobby dwindles. In ranked, at low ranks the dragon will probably rank you up quicker and transition to viper as you get higher.

[@ErykRoll]

Nah on pubs u can go full dragon or full tiger since ur not risking anything important (rank loss), unless ur trying to farm crown wins then rush everyone u see and clean the lobby before the 10th zone
