I started playing Fortnite when Zero Build came out and the best advice I’ve ever been given was to avoid gun fights unless you have at least half shield, if you have below half shield avoid fights at all costs (except for extremely specific situations) because you will get two shot by anything and everything.

Probably not for everyone because I know how annoying fill teammates can be, but playing in squad fills with no mic has helped me practice no-mic comms and I’ve gained a better sense of awareness within the game. Also the pressure of a teammate spectating you REALLY makes you think about your decisions 😂

[@sonicskadoosh]

I won’t lie, this video made me take a serious look at my game and sometimes my aim isn’t the best, but I can hit my shots well enough my biggest weakness was deciding what to do in fights and how to rotate. Zero build truly requires a different level of thinking than builds and thanks to this video I was able to make smarter choices in fights and better rotations and got a 16 kill dub thanks to this video. I was getting into so many fights back to back but made smarter choices choices, end game was the first time I ever played so slow but it was smart because everyone else ran out in the open making it easy to take the win

These tips helped me a lot. I'm a casual Fortnite player and I play with my wife, especially the Zero Build mode. I wanted to improve so I could take responsibility for myself and make her more comfortable to have fun with the game without too much stress. I'm from Brazil and I can say that your video came at a good time and is much better than a lot of content here. Thanks!

[@RealSkello]

I prefer shocks in the middle between my shotgun and sniper because when I’m using a sniper I don’t usually quickscope but I can swap to it quick to get out of a situation

[@windillboy]

I have to say this is sooooo useful! Nowadays I play more of a balance of builds and zero builds, but it used to be exclusively zero builds, so my aim has massively improved from that and I can usually get high kill games relying on my aim

[@WookieeRage]

Enjoying your tips! I'm an older player who needs all the help he can get. Going for at least one victory this season. I like your no hype, clear and organized advise. Thank you. Other than the "get good" responses other people might leave, would you think I have better odds of a victory in random teams or just slogging it out in solos?

[@p1xelpengu1n]

Most likely solos. Random fill usually pairs you with some random dude who isn’t great and then you’re up against full teams of people who have decent teamwork. Probably better to go solo or find a friend to play with if you do team modes.

[@Dr.Dude42069]

I would try squads or duos if you're struggling to get a win. Not everybody has the same ability and skills and some play styles are better suited to playing with others. Learning to support your teammates effectively will also make you a better solo player in my opinion

Pc, low ping, high fps, good game awareness and positioning, little bit of skill = wins

[@p1xelpengu1n]

TBH FPS and having a PC aren't as important as the other stuff! I played on a monitor that was 60Hz almost my entire life. While getting higher frame rate did help me, I still played well on 60 FPS. And yes game awareness and positioning is definitely one of the most important factors of zero build.

[@redtesta]

The best tutorial. Clear and broken down. Doesn't even need to do this but helping out players be better , and things we could even use if we ran up against him, is very unselfish. Much appreciated. Now i need to look to see if you have a video on what are the best attachments for specific guns. fyi ( something i noticed, 12:26 at .5 video speed, he is shooting you when you are stationary. Once you move , the bullets track you and end up shooting the rock yet he is still aiming where you were and then he drags over) Not sure about fortnite what that means :) but being a long time apex player , well. Bullets should track where you are aiming. Anyway, going to look at your other videos.

[@p1xelpengu1n]

Unfortunately not yet. I just started YT! The one thing I will definitely say though is put a drum mag on the gatekeeper. And put the laser attachment on the burst smg

Loadout that works for me is 3 or 4 guns lined up in order of damage range, then 1 or 2 health item slots. I tend to say screw the shockwave and emp by just fighting smart and hard and then healing up after

[@p1xelpengu1n]

@@bradysteeley7414 4 weapons is never worth it imo. Once you have more than three weapons they start to overlap in their use cases. Like having a sniper and a crossbow both do long range well so you only need one. If you’re playing zero build you absolutely need need need a movement item
