Let's attempt to get back to 1000 users on code "marrentm", it truly helps me out a ton! (epicpartner)

[@alyohin1235]

Imma use it

[@oz3s_]

after this video i gotchu 🙏🙏

[@KamisatoKota]

i use it

[@sduper2461]

marren we need the streams

[@clipswithskills]

he’s watching you 👀

[@doggofv]

You described the exact issue I have but then just failed to address the actual reason. These “good days” and “bad days” aren’t just mentality. It is literally something physical I haven’t been able to figure out. Like some days I will just wake up, hop on, not think about anything and just play like a god, the next day, same thing, no variance in mentality but I play like a bot. Significantly worse quality of play with seemingly no changes. I’ve tried testing sleep time, when I go to sleep, amount of sleep, what food I ate, when I ate, if I went outside, a ton of things yet nothing I found could replicate these seemingly random days where I feel like I am playing on a whole new level sure some of the things in this video are true but they do not solve the root of the issue you described in the title or intro

[@alexszn7204]

Sleep Is a huge huge factor to your Gameplay and reaction time

[@titanoncalculator7481]

Same here what to you play on

[@yschles]

I’ve never related to a comment this much before😭. For me personally though another huge thing is that on the days that I am playing good I’ll have, for lack of a better term passion or whatever where I’m fully invested in what I’m playing my mind is flowing my reflexes are flowing everything just makes sense. The rest of the days though I just don’t have it. It’s not that I’m playing bad I just don’t have the passion these other kids I go up against in ranked have. For example I’ll just not be invested enough to play my best which will result in me getting eliminated after not putting my all into staying alive and making the best decisions I can, no matter how much caffeine or sleep or warming up I get it doesn’t help. Thinking about it now I think it might just be dopamine depletion. After taking a few day break I’ll play my best and have that “passion times 1000 but if I play to much every day burnout can cause me to not play my best even if it’s my first hour on. Don’t know if u relate to this or if it made sense.

[@Expplained]

it’s probably the difference in delay from one day to another, makes the biggest difference to me

[@claudeheinrich3613]

same thing with me and sports, some days I am just way stronger and the next I can't do anything

[@LikeMikkel]

you are so right i used to never do warmups and play kinda bad and have these "bad days" but now i actually warm up and hit a lot of shots and my edits are on point thanks for the tips!

[@NorthA9]

thank you so much, your one of the only people thats actually helping my gameplay!!! pls keep uploading

[@noahmckinney4679]

I was just wondering this question today. Crazy you made a video. I had 3 bad games but brought it back 💪

[@pumpki01]

It’s me again! I start to notice this more often, and I don’t even know why! This video most definitely helped me try to stay a bit more consistent, and of course it was a marrent vid :)) love the vids dude helping me drastically words can’t describe how much I appreciate ur hard work and time into the vids!

[@Y00KA83]

Bro every time im experiencing problems with my game play, my fps, or just need to learn something, you happen to make a vid on it. Keep up the content bro I've learned so much from you!

[@NP_Com]

Hes probably Reading inside our minds

[@ugcflame8302]

Hey marren. I have been watching you since that early seasons of chapter 2. I just switched to kbm from controller and not sure what to practice to get better.Also keep up the great videos!

[@Ender-OC]

this video was perfect and helped A LOT

[@penguinarmy780]

Ur Videos are really helpful thank you!

[@ZhyxeLIVE]

For me it’s because normally I have around 20 ping, but half the time I’m around 50, and some days I’m at hard 0 so when I get used to 0 I play really good and the high ping I just start being trash

[@hunterhoneybear2318]

this helped lot thanks man

[@Cryxtalfn]

such a good video marren

[@kaiuuu5142]

keep up the amazing uploads :]

[@Fate3FN]

Hey Marren your content is amazing and super entertaining could you make a best kovaaks drills or playlists?

[@RAHmxndless]

Another one of these bangers marren

[@RAHmxndless]

Remember u did the same thing in chapter 2

[@ilycrakin]

One of your best videos I swear

[@ashwaves4580]

Thank you marren ur the goat

[@NOEL_the_real_one]

your videos helped me so much thx

[@marrentm]

Pleasure is all mine!

[@xzniperzx4545]

bro i love u and ur videos

[@rollastik]

W video w kaiuuuu in the background

[@ACEchoppy]

great video bro

[@SuperJG]

Love the video ❤

[@Ddaaaahs]

i figured it out myself it does kinda depend on what you feeling that day if you excited to hop on the game you’ll play really good you also need to sleep so you react faster and so what im saying is if you randomly get a energy boost during the day you’ll perform amazingly

[@Ddaaaahs]

By the way you also need good fps or ping if your playing creative you mostly need fps but if ur playing br you need both you need good fps and ping to keep up with your energy boost

[@Ceez187]

Marren what maps should I use in Kovak’s

[@jona2x]

Being tired from school is the main reason anyone has bad days 😭

[@iiBorxz]

I’m allergic to seafood.. I’m cooked💀💀💀🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@king_king_x7bw]

lol

[@marrentm]

Riiip brother :( you are indeed cooked

[@CozyHipnyk]

Is there any way that you can make your next vid about how to get god like aim, thank you

[@scout7446]

This also happens when you don’t take a break, i usually take a break for a day after playing bad and after that break day i warm up and practice a lot of mechanics using turtle fights by martoz or piece control maps and then if i play bad i usually warm up my edits and more and then go to public matches like ranked battle royale.

[@mizujxre]

i don't know how to practice at fortnite like due to my location (russia) epic games just disabled 95% of creative maps so i can't even play on raider's map. i have martoz box fight map tho, but i have 90 ping on it for no reason😢. but i have normal ping in ranked and 1v1s

[@scout7446]

@@mizujxre well, try to practice in normal matches if you don’t have access to most creative maps

[@HyperSZN1x]

Bro, this always happens to me. I thought I was the only one. I switched to a keyboard because this issue occurred frequently. Yet, once I got the hang of keyboard, the same thing happened. I blamed it on my hands. For example, one day I'm dropping 30 bombs in matches, but the next day, I still get high kills, though my mechanics are off. I was too 160 in unreal now I am 179.

[@choccymilkop3333]

Bro your not alone lol I was dropping 18 kill games then automatically I dropped down to diamond 2 bc I was getting 1kill a game like it don’t make sense

[@choccymilkop3333]

I was elite

[@grqfes]

yo this is literally me, the day after i got something done with my pc i was actually the most insanest player ever i could have won the box fight world cup finals. i still remember that day after like 2 years

[@grqfes]

you are a prophet

[@grqfes]

ill put the code in even tho i dont really buy stuff

[@Capfnbr_]

please make a vid on "why u feel like ur stuck" because i feel like im going no where overall in skill

[@LichaaFN]

Can you make a video about my problem and how to fix it? I warm up a Lot before tournaments, the first game of the tournament i always get top 5 with high kills, but then the next matchest get worse and worse, which makes me unable to qual

[@Saif_lx]

because you get matched with better players

[@Prodigyszn]

Marrentm is here to save us

[@EinusHoltus]

why did you have like 12 open background programs?

[@Tzariofnbr]

I had and broken finger and it Just got good, and now I’m washed, so I’m trying to play my best everyday but idk how I can get unwashed ?

[@champavr]

me subbing just because hes way to good at the game

[@BawsBoo]

This also feels like life advice lol

[@Sfetofar4o]

W helping me alot

[@TheLittleBunz]

How’d you make a video on what I was thinking about 😭

[@wyattmccluree]

this is my goat

[@DrehmerTheHunter]

I made 140 points on duo console cc, I'm starting to think that I am trash in this game. In my head I was suposed to make at least 250-300 points.

[@cyberrobinson8309]

U should get a pc if u wanna go pro but if you jus can’t get earning it’s alright there’s loads of other games out there and going pro isn’t for everyone but I believe in u bro 🙏🏾

[@Expplained]

its literally just down to the different delay everyday its such a joke

[@merlin4628]

nice love your vids

[@marrentm]

Appreciate that so much more than you think, merlin!

[@DIG_Kyle]

Nice vid

[@DEQX_EXE]

hey marrentm can you do a road to pro the hole next season

[@N1K0420]

you're without a doubt the best mentality coach, the way you tell us about your past mistakes, give us motivation and strategies to improve on is truly unmatched

2 MINUATES AGOO??? DIS IS CRAAAAZY

[@guzma5524]

1:49 did you just mention kovaaks in 2024 😟😟😟 we use aimlabs now unc 😭🙏

[@Supermeswavy]

Do u have aim map

[@cheese_2_drippy]

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think that you should play more aggressively when you are low on mats and ammo because the opponent will have all of these builds and ammo you need

[@JJHOW-sh4em]

I got to disagree with this

[@cheese_2_drippy]

@@JJHOW-sh4em it depends on your playing style tbh if you are aggressive you do that but if you rent and you want to play placement just try and farm mats and try not to use as many mats but still be protected

[@JJHOW-sh4em]

@@cheese_2_drippy I can for sure agree with this maybe just the way I play and think I would like to see a good player point on this

[@Giddyon749]

genuine question is there anything i can do to get my ping down i haave 130 ping in midle east and i live in south africa

Put your stuff in auto maybe I’m not sure

What happened to ur tournament content

[@agpgamer9]

Salmon is expensive in brazil

[@suavecu7513]

You might consider doing this video with just a camera. I'm not sure the Fortnite content in the background does much for the video. Might make it more evergreen as well. Great content regardless.

Right now I’m struggling with players that play like rats I’ll have a good drop kill 5 or 6 people then when I’m healing or something trying loot they’ll be a player hiding in a corner somewhere wearing all black like Bruhh

You should build a box if your healing and after a kill make a second box

if i play worse in duos should i then play with others or stick to solo because i have a duo but he plays like a dumbass in creative and ranked he is good but does dumb plays making us die early all the time and he dosent listen to coms

1:28 I think that you're kinda stupid for saying that ngl. not everybody would be on a kbm, and plus it would be better to work on your crosshair placement and piece control because that would help you with building, editing and aiming all at once.

[@JXSH722]

Ts don’t even make sense he’s not saying that piece control and builds shouldn’t be warmed up, he’s saying to give that same priority to aiming which is just as important

[@icyy_xia]

@@JXSH722 you could get better aim by using piece control and working on your crosshair placement smh
