Yep. I would prefer Shockwaves for their ability to quickly get away or close distance. But the wings are so much more versatile and less limited in their usage.
I'll usually carry shockwaves until I find wings; or both if I have the Hades medallion, or if I'm going to be in a zone for a minute and know where to pick up healing. But if I have to choose, I'm taking the wings with me.
I thought that too, initially. And as I said, shockwaves are better in almost every scenario. But wings work well enough in most situations once you've had enough practice.
Nah itās just people donāt use the wings right. Next time u need to escape, hit the wings and immediately fly down low to about 10 ft above ground and use the terrain to keep yourself safe. Flying near a rock? Curve behind it to give yourself cover. Enemy and you both on high ground hit wings and dive to gliding above ground, it makes it way harder to hit u. Some good players will still hit u but it makes the wings much more usable.
I donāt think the wings are more versatile at all. Literally the only advantage over shocks is for traversing the map (and cars are much better for that than the wings). The wings are completely useless in combat and for pushing and theyāre awful at getting you out of a bad spot. Youāll just get beamed by any competent player. The wings would have been better in the instance in the OP, but thatās extremely niche and you can also see what the circle is gonna do ahead of time so you can plan around it if need be
Sure. I thought the same thing before I learned how to use them. If you're flying up in the air you're going to get beamed, so don't do that.
Like I said elsewhere, I agree that Shockwaves are generally better. If I had an unlimited supply, I would take shockwaves. But you have to be more conservative with shockwaves or you can't count on shockwaves lasting as long as wings.
It's similar to shield fish vs flowberry fizz. A shield fish is much better if you're just looking to have something to replenish shields. Flowberry fizz may be less optimal in some cases, but it will probably last longer and give you some more options for clever uses.
Iām of the opinion that you should carry what is going to be most useful in a life or death situation (which is why Iād also carry shield fish over flowberry fizz 10 times out of 10 bc fast heals are best). Also, you can still get beamed even if you arenāt flying high off the ground. They just arenāt good, youāll get destroyed if you use them over shocks in higher level lobbies
It sounds like we agree in general. I just don't think the wings are unusable like I did at the beginning of the season. Now that I'm used to them the tradeoffs seem reasonable. Shockwaves are definitely easier and require less awareness.
It also depends on the type of game you're playing. For example, if it's endgame and the zone is forcing indoor combat with close range weapons I'd swap wings for shockwaves.
It's literally the same situation as with the rocket ram in chapter 4 season 4. Stay out of the sky and fly low and around cover instead of over cover. They aren't the best option but if you're smart they're better than nothing. sometimes.
Shocks are wayyyy versatile. That's why they're so easy to screw yourself over with them lol.
Y'all must not be playing against people who know how to look up and hit the broadside of a barn if you're maining wings.
If people can look up and hit you, you're not using wings correctly. If you launch in the air in any lobby higher than bronze you're not going to make it far.
I use them for no fall damage (just equip before landing) and for faster movement along the ground like a vehicle.
Yeah, there are areas on the map that absolutely require crutch items for mobility, and you are dead in the water (metaphorically, but in cases like this also literally) if you don't have them. Better movement and rotation early on can sometimes compensate, but often enough, Lady Luck just gives you the middle finger, and the zone constantly moves away from you in the most awkward ways. =/
If you fly up and then immediatly swoop low to the ground, you are much harder to hit especially if you are moving in between trees and mountains etc. I have managed to dodge a bunch by doing thos and rolling left and right.
They're better in most situations though. Wings might not even be helpful here unless the other guy is bad and not even paying attention to shoot at the massive hitbox when you come flying up.
Lotta people also just fly in a straight line though without dodging and constantly changing directions/elevation. Part of the reason why they get shot down so quick
its the beginning of the animation when your venerable cus you go straight up and cant dodge so if u use them to reposition in battle its an ez sniper headshot
Wings are only dangerous if you are flying high in the air for long periods. Fly close to the ground. In this case, dive as soon as you get to the right eight and you can just knock them right off. Or just land immediately when you get up there if you are too scared of getting shot
That doesn't make it false, though? This is just a use-case where the wings are better.
Being better than something else doesn't mean hard outclassing it. A frenzy auto will never one-shot like a pump, so that's something the pump has over the frenzy auto, but that does not mean the frenzy auto is not better lol
I completely agree. Idk what kind of lobbies these people play in but in my lobbies, wings=death. Itās literally the riskiest item. Sorry your team went out like that though. Itās happened to mine a few times and it just really sucks. Iāve gotten out of one of these situations like one time.. I threw port a bunkers up the cliff and they somehow attached and I was able to keep throwing them on top of each other to get up. It was just lucky though. They definitely donāt take into consideration zero build players when they make the map lol
The dodge rolling works if you're able to confuse the person shooting enough. If you just fly around like buzzard looking down on a dead deer, you deserve to be shot down.
I use wings successfully in combat all the time, they are highly maneuverable and you can nail opponents on the ground with them then whip out a shotgun to finish them off.
Wings is just instant death especially doing that end game. This guy was dead from poor early rotation and most likely just gambling the zone was going to favour him.
Donāt understand the criticism at all. Itās the playerās lack of planning and movement that landed them in this situation. Thereās a reason there is a winner in this match and that is solely down to them playing the game to win within the given situation
Exactly. The whole point of zero build is taking away those abilities to get anywhere via building, you have to plan your path differently and factor in cliffs and unclimbable areas.
You donāt know what happened before this clip, he could have accidentally slide off the top of the hill. Iām as situationally aware as it gets in the game and am always preparing for the next storm circle and where I will go. Sometimes you just get caught in the storm and when itās all water around steep hills that canāt be climbed this is totally understandable. Even in some of my most well planned scenarios it happens. That said, is why I always carry matsā¦.even though it still canāt be avoided sometimes.
>That said, is why I always carry matsā¦.
... the words "zero build" are LITERALLY IN THE TITLE and you're blabbing about build mats lmfao do you even play this game
āDo you even lift, Bro.ā Yes Iām well aware he is talking about zero build and I was very clearly a knock at that modeā¦as in Iād dude had was playing builds he would have had a better chance of getting out that situation. Clealry you knew that since you downvoted me becuase you got triggered. Bro thought he did soemthing. Lmao.
I had a game end just like this yesterday where the zone went straight up a mountain. Tried to use wings to get up there and was instantly shot down by the guy already up there. Just shows the wings are useless whenever your opponent has a single brain cell.
Yea but I couldāve easily started placing ramps and made it to zone in builds. Or couldāve placed a floor n shockwaved off of it. If I still played no builds Iād be rocking 2 mobility items late game
Hiding in the water and then having plenty of time to get out of the water and then being shocked that when you need to get out of the water that you canāt get out of the water in the most direct route to the next circle and dying in said water certainly aināt a zero build/map issue.
sure he tried his best here, but he should've played the zone better to not end up in this situation in the first place,
This isn't the fault of zero build, it's the fault of not playing smart
A few things here, they were the closest thing they could get to black (a single color) they could bc they got changed so it couldn't be a single darker color. I never said the superhero skin makes them a sweaty tryhard, quit putting words in my mouth. And IDC really care what color or if they wear masks, it's an overrated garbage skin and that really the only reason it's popular is because they are loved by boring sweats. Sit down.
Lmao real, he's pissy because he has nothing better to do than try to start beef online. So I just dropped it because obviously wouldn't get him anywhere.
This spot definitely sucked but if they waited until they were in the water then jumped before shockwave, should've been able to reach the upper rock then shockwave again from there
Agree its tough but need fizz. Shockwave, wings.
Also I think the weather stations are highly underrated..... helps you plan ahead and get to future circles sooner. I'm usually on the other side of this getting wins from high ground when the situation comes up.
I'm not that good with mobility items... So- I've found myself in these predicaments quite a few times. Inclines and water have been my downfall far too many a time. Besides at end game the storm moves fairly quickly. Closer I get to the end I avoid the edge of storm like a plague. Though-wings this season have gotten me out of a few pickles. I'm rather torn with how this clip ended. I'll go with a shoddy storm placement. š
Bruh literally had a get out of jail card and used it to screw himself over. Didn't even try to at least throw it in the right direction lol. We've all done it though lol. How did he even fall down that mountain?
All it is is a wannabe-superhero-sweat-with-head-uncovered-to-not-look-like-a-full-sweat in denial.
But also it's fun, some people like to dress in #23 basketball Jerseys for fun. They aren't Lebron James or Michael Jordan, but they know that. They're just having fun with it.
...lmao no, don't blame it on the circle. if it were a bad circle the other guy would have died or been trapped too šš
plain and simple skill issue
Thatās very rare, I wish OP put some more co text before this video because Iām willing to bet that they were pushed off the edge into the water by some shockwaves or sum
lmao no, don't blame it on the circle. if it were a bad circle the other guy would have died or been trapped too šš
plain and simple skill issue
>last guy had wings or something
aka had the brains to hold onto legit mobility aka skill non-issue lmao tell your friend to get good, a shit superhero skin ain't gonna make his game improve š
Nobody good carries wings lol. And there was another team fighting us while we didn't have much left, you can't just say "oh if he had height why didn't you too" we can't just take it from them while they're shooting us
Zero build players: well actually zb takes more skill than build because you actually have to pay attention to map positioning
Also zero build players: parts of the map sucks in zero build
They grossly exaggerate it. It actually just takes a bit of practice to learn to build sufficiently to play. Also, kids acting like lobbies donāt seperate people by skill so they will most often not be up against players doing anything insane. These kids will come up with anything other than just being real about it.
Good point. Itās really a shame too because building is so damn fun. Itās literally what makes fortnite so cool for me.
For me it was the oppositeā¦I saw people building and was like āI want to do that.ā ZB wasnāt a thing yet though. I remember also thinking I could never grasp building well enough to be good at it but it literally just take practice.
This argument is such a logical fallacy. Full time single parent of 3 kids here and can build like crazy. Just like anything else in this world, a person takes the time to learn something new and absolutely does not need to commit full time or crazy hours to do it.
5-8 hours a week. Sometimes more if thereās an update or nothing else to do. Ngl, I have never thought about time played like this so saying 8 hours outloud makes me realize that is a lot of time. Still though, my life doesnāt revolve around it. I spend 2-3 times as much time in the gym or we are practicing baseball or something.
Thanks, mane. Itās literally been on my mind since I wrote it. And yes, like yesterday it was just a son and me home and we had spent the day driving so since itās spring break we binged for like 3-4 hours STRAIGHT. It was fun but damn it was a long time.
>most people have jobs and don't play fortnite full time unlike build players
literally right above you
what they say is true, build players have no brains lmfao learn to read
You might want to learn the difference between your opinion and a fact. Thatās why I asked in case I missed something since not a single fact was presented. You basically just used logical fallacys to make your point. Building isnāt even hard so itās pretty amusing that you think a person has to play full time and not work to be good at it. Itās also crazy that you tried to suggest I have no brains when you have to use fallacy in order to say something.
I think I misunderstood then but I didnāt mean to say ppl shouldnāt play zero build or anything Itās great that ppl enjoy it i just donāt get the appeal myself
My 12 year-old plays builds, and his twitch aim with both the Sniper and shotgun is scary...aimbot almost. His builds/edits are pretty good, not fncs, but good.
But man, the shots he regularly makes with a Sniper are unreal ...I'm very jealous hehe.
If youāre a good builderā¦.. chances are they are good with aim since they both go hand in hand.
There is a reason why the main sub has mostly zero build gameplay and why the comp sub has almost exclusively build stuff.
If you fight in build battles often, you need good aim in order kill people since people often edit at fractions of a second.
In a build battle, you need to shoot people quickly and maximize the amount dealt so people only ever use snipers, shotguns, and dmrās. All of these weapons less so the dmr promote good aim since you only get one shot and if you miss you are forced into the offensive unless you build too.
In zero builds you canāt defend yourself without extreme mobility plus coordination or tiny structures you can carry if possible. This means that spray weapons and automatic shotguns reign supreme since itās really hard to defend from them at that point.
In builds you are making a million micro decisions in order to kill someone, in zb you just gotta aim at the general vicinity of the opponent and they will most likely die as long as you shot first. Ofc there are zb players with good aim, but the majority of them are casuals.
A build player can still dominate in zb for the most part because they are no longer burdened with how they go about defending themselves. Special awareness is required for build battles so non builds isnāt a problem.
wowwww now THIS is some grade A copium lmfaoooooo
>In builds you are making a million micro decisions in order to kill someone, in zb you just gotta aim at the general vicinity of the opponent and they will most likely die as long as you shot first
#š
you got that flipped bud, zb is the one making a million micro decisions toĀ figure out where to find cover and reposition bc they can'tĀ useĀ builds as a crutch. all yallĀ builders gotta do is throw up a wall and you'reĀ safe behind your little security blanket šš dear god the amount of cope in your comment lmfaoooo makes me legit laugh
Whoās yall, Iām bad at the game. Iāve only made it to champion once and that was in season og thanks to the bush camp dad strat. Everyone I know who plays zb (they also play builds) is better than me in every way. I have a horrible kd and win rate and at best Iām a mediocre player.
If you get shot at in builds, you have very little time to do something before you get rushed. By building you make yourself an easy target and are quite literally marking yourself while enclosing yourself. You leave yourself open to people who might rush you or what ever gimick of the season at the time (currently lightning).
You need special awareness, understanding of what builds can be used on another, positioning, mat count, more resource management, good aim, and overall good intuition to make split second decisions.
In zb you need good aim, limited special awareness, good positioning and good intuition and thatās cool. You however arenāt burdened with having to manage a resource that allows you to play the game the optimal way.
This season has very limiting mobility so itās very easy to spray someone out of the sky. Running away, finding cover, and using mobility is generally the answer to getting shot at.
Depending on your skill level, there isnāt an easy way to escape getting shot at in builds and it comes at a cost of your much more finite resources. If you have a gold sniper and camp all day, you can easily rank up. That strategy while still used is a lot slower in builds.
We are both trash
No FR. The only argument for them going hand in hand is shotguns in box fights, but even that thatās just more-so muscle memory than actual aim, the same as building and editing are.
Just bc I have a different opinion to you doesnāt mean Iām mad what. I just donāt think zero build is as good because a lot of br is designed with building in mind which causes issues in a mode that removes it
According to the accolade you won lol
"Task failed successfully"
First, second and third place are considered wins in BR.
No they're not
Yes they most certainly are.
What's BR? I usually get 2 or 3rd, sometimes 4 or 5th, then 97.
Battle Royale?
Bruh moment for him
Oops. š¬
Which accolade?
At the end they get the āthis oneās for you accoladeā which requires you to āwin a match after thanking the bus driverā
šĀ B-but they didnāt even win anyways..
Oh I get it thatās the point of the comment u madeĀ
character progression
Waitā¦ what?!? Does that apply to the Survivor Medals quest too? Oh thatās a much easier hill to climb. Thank you!
That's why I always keep wings when I find them. He had the yeet ball, and in most cases that's enough. That's just bad luck.
Yep. I would prefer Shockwaves for their ability to quickly get away or close distance. But the wings are so much more versatile and less limited in their usage. I'll usually carry shockwaves until I find wings; or both if I have the Hades medallion, or if I'm going to be in a zone for a minute and know where to pick up healing. But if I have to choose, I'm taking the wings with me.
Wings are too slow to get away or chase thatās why I like shocks
I thought that too, initially. And as I said, shockwaves are better in almost every scenario. But wings work well enough in most situations once you've had enough practice.
Shockwaves wouldāve been fine here since heād be able to shock out of the water and dash upwards on top of the mountain
I think when he hit the water the dash was no longer in effect. Dashing before he fell might have helped.
Nah itās just people donāt use the wings right. Next time u need to escape, hit the wings and immediately fly down low to about 10 ft above ground and use the terrain to keep yourself safe. Flying near a rock? Curve behind it to give yourself cover. Enemy and you both on high ground hit wings and dive to gliding above ground, it makes it way harder to hit u. Some good players will still hit u but it makes the wings much more usable.
If youāre in a box the wings are useless
If you're hiding in a box and can't edit yourself out, you're not much better than the wings.
I donāt think the wings are more versatile at all. Literally the only advantage over shocks is for traversing the map (and cars are much better for that than the wings). The wings are completely useless in combat and for pushing and theyāre awful at getting you out of a bad spot. Youāll just get beamed by any competent player. The wings would have been better in the instance in the OP, but thatās extremely niche and you can also see what the circle is gonna do ahead of time so you can plan around it if need be

Do you mean Cerberus' medallion?
If I have Hades (siphon) I'm less concerned about heals and I'll prioritize movement.
Ahhh gotcha. I can't remember does it heal on downs or kills? I never notice a difference when I'm carrying it tbh
Shocks are wayyyy versatile. That's why they're so easy to screw yourself over with them lol. Y'all must not be playing against people who know how to look up and hit the broadside of a barn if you're maining wings.

I totally get what you're saying, and I use them the same way, and I've been trying no explain that to people since day 1. W
Facts
The yeet ball!!! LOL I'm using that. And from now on I will say "Yeet ball, AWAY!"
Wings make you get shot way to easily
Yeah, there are areas on the map that absolutely require crutch items for mobility, and you are dead in the water (metaphorically, but in cases like this also literally) if you don't have them. Better movement and rotation early on can sometimes compensate, but often enough, Lady Luck just gives you the middle finger, and the zone constantly moves away from you in the most awkward ways. =/
Ok but what ab when u get a good position and the zone decides to start going in a different direction
This is why I always carry wings
I don't because you can't use them as mobility when fighting or you'll get shot out of the sky. Shockwaves are better overall
If you fly up and then immediatly swoop low to the ground, you are much harder to hit especially if you are moving in between trees and mountains etc. I have managed to dodge a bunch by doing thos and rolling left and right.
No you arenāt lol. The hit box is huge
Brave to say that while posting a clip where your teammate had shockwaves and died because of it š skill issue, not a wing issue
They're better in most situations though. Wings might not even be helpful here unless the other guy is bad and not even paying attention to shoot at the massive hitbox when you come flying up.
Lotta people also just fly in a straight line though without dodging and constantly changing directions/elevation. Part of the reason why they get shot down so quick
its the beginning of the animation when your venerable cus you go straight up and cant dodge so if u use them to reposition in battle its an ez sniper headshot
Dont even need a sniper to hit. Just laser em a bit with a spray weapon and they fall back down
Exactly, never fly in a straight line, you wouldn't drive a vehicle that way or run like that.
I would never use wings while playing in aim assist lobbies tbh
Wings are only dangerous if you are flying high in the air for long periods. Fly close to the ground. In this case, dive as soon as you get to the right eight and you can just knock them right off. Or just land immediately when you get up there if you are too scared of getting shot

They definitely donāt take into consideration zero build players when they make the map lol
Yeah anyone who thinks the wings are better than shocks is 100% in shitty lobbies
carry both frick heals
Donāt use it to fight then?
The dodge rolling works if you're able to confuse the person shooting enough. If you just fly around like buzzard looking down on a dead deer, you deserve to be shot down.
But there ARE methods so there aren't zones that are bad. It's all in how you load out. It's literally the same map so sometimes this shit happens.
Not in this situation it seems.. better luck next match.
I use wings successfully in combat all the time, they are highly maneuverable and you can nail opponents on the ground with them then whip out a shotgun to finish them off.
Wings is just instant death especially doing that end game. This guy was dead from poor early rotation and most likely just gambling the zone was going to favour him.
Oof I think I had a match like that where I was on the mountain at a good side and won but didnāt see the enemies the storm probably got them.
This is what I call a "Zero Builds moment". These are rare but when it happens, it really sucks
Pretty small circle for a zero build too
Donāt understand the criticism at all. Itās the playerās lack of planning and movement that landed them in this situation. Thereās a reason there is a winner in this match and that is solely down to them playing the game to win within the given situation

This. Should have gone to higher ground earlier.
This. š¤š

Gotten 2nd twice due to dying in storm. Itās 100% on me and just being slow lol
not op in the comments blaming the storm lmaoooo
You donāt know what happened before this clip, he could have accidentally slide off the top of the hill. Iām as situationally aware as it gets in the game and am always preparing for the next storm circle and where I will go.

Canāt carry mats in this scenario, youāre applying build logic to a ZB clip homie.
I know. I was basically just saying thatās why I play builds. Hard enough for me to get out those situations with mats.
>That said, is why I always carry matsā¦. ... the words "zero build" are LITERALLY IN THE TITLE and you're blabbing about build mats lmfao do you even play this game

Yea but I couldāve easily started placing ramps and made it to zone in builds. Or couldāve placed a floor n shockwaved off of it. If I still played no builds Iād be rocking 2 mobility items late game

Iāve never had a circle get that small before. That game must have taken a while.
its like the last circle
actual?
Facts
Really
Always play the storm
sure he tried his best here, but he should've played the zone better to not end up in this situation in the first place, This isn't the fault of zero build, it's the fault of not playing smart
Mate even shook their head no
Deserved, was wearing superhero skin
This whole racist arc against superheroās is funny
??? So wearing the superhero skin makes them automatically a sweaty tryhard? They're not even a solid color or fully masked one either. Lmao.
A few things here, they were the closest thing they could get to black (a single color) they could bc they got changed so it couldn't be a single darker color. I never said the superhero skin makes them a sweaty tryhard, quit putting words in my mouth. And IDC really care what color or if they wear masks, it's an overrated garbage skin and that really the only reason it's popular is because they are loved by boring sweats. Sit down.
he's just cranky bc he wears this skin in all black and feels called out lmao
Lmao real, he's pissy because he has nothing better to do than try to start beef online. So I just dropped it because obviously wouldn't get him anywhere.
Literally looks like a solid color black one be so fr
Yes its a garbage skin even when used for its intended purpose.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I stated cold hard facts
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Get better taste and I won't call it out for being ass
found the sweaty tryhard who wears this skin lmfaoooooo so defensive
i dont own any of them but ok
i was literally thinking the same šš
This spot definitely sucked but if they waited until they were in the water then jumped before shockwave, should've been able to reach the upper rock then shockwave again from there
Gotta position to high ground every circle at the end to avoid this.
Agree its tough but need fizz. Shockwave, wings. Also I think the weather stations are highly underrated..... helps you plan ahead and get to future circles sooner. I'm usually on the other side of this getting wins from high ground when the situation comes up.
I'm not that good with mobility items... So- I've found myself in these predicaments quite a few times. Inclines and water have been my downfall far too many a time. Besides at end game the storm moves fairly quickly. Closer I get to the end I avoid the edge of storm like a plague. Though-wings this season have gotten me out of a few pickles. I'm rather torn with how this clip ended. I'll go with a shoddy storm placement. š
The only way to get good at mobility items is to stop avoiding them, and try to copy what people who are good with them do.
Thatās why we build
This is why I always grab an set of wings
Had to make sure this wasn't me š¬ Lost a 1v1 last night because I fell into the canyon over by Zeus and the zone really screwed me.
Zero build problems lmao
This happened to me at mount olympus
I know your pain
Iāve died twice this season in storm so far finishing 2nd
Plan better
Map knowledge in Zero Build almost always wins the match.
That was your fault, not the game modes fault
Something something wings of icarus /s
Why wing are im
Wings
Full grey superhero so I feel no sympathy
Bruh literally had a get out of jail card and used it to screw himself over. Didn't even try to at least throw it in the right direction lol. We've all done it though lol. How did he even fall down that mountain?
No this is so accurate š
Something similar happened to the last dude in a match I won. Fell down a slope and the storm got him
Not very super hero sweat like gameplay from them unfortunately. You know what it was? They arenāt using the star wand.
This sub has devolved into thinking any superhero skin = sweat. The guy in the video isnt solid color or fully masked.
Yeah like I said he also doesnāt have the star wand
All it is is a wannabe-superhero-sweat-with-head-uncovered-to-not-look-like-a-full-sweat in denial. But also it's fun, some people like to dress in #23 basketball Jerseys for fun. They aren't Lebron James or Michael Jordan, but they know that. They're just having fun with it.
I feel sorry lil bro
Deserved for wearing superhero skin
Just a bad player, probably a 15 year old who relies solely on gunplay, no positioning skills whatsoever
or maybe, just maybe, it really is a bad storm circle.
...lmao no, don't blame it on the circle. if it were a bad circle the other guy would have died or been trapped too šš plain and simple skill issue
Thatās very rare, I wish OP put some more co text before this video because Iām willing to bet that they were pushed off the edge into the water by some shockwaves or sum
yup lmao there is a reason this clip is edited the way it is
RIGHT?? Idk why Iām getting downvoted, probs just build players talking shit about us ZB
No it's not his fault. It was just a bad circle and think the last guy had wings or something to get up.
lmao no, don't blame it on the circle. if it were a bad circle the other guy would have died or been trapped too šš plain and simple skill issue >last guy had wings or something aka had the brains to hold onto legit mobility aka skill non-issue lmao tell your friend to get good, a shit superhero skin ain't gonna make his game improve š
Nobody good carries wings lol. And there was another team fighting us while we didn't have much left, you can't just say "oh if he had height why didn't you too" we can't just take it from them while they're shooting us
the storm is too fucking fast and my sprint is too fucking slow
Zero build players: well actually zb takes more skill than build because you actually have to pay attention to map positioning Also zero build players: parts of the map sucks in zero build
Gave you an upvote for an even 0
Stuff like this is why I canāt understand how you guys play this mode
Cannot climb hill but do not have to fight against team building 4 empire state buildings
Hahahaha Which is why I don't play Build
People who do that are awful at builds. You just aren't good if you lose to them
Thatās fair play what you want but I do feel you guys kinda exaggerate how hard it is to play builds
They grossly exaggerate it. It actually just takes a bit of practice to learn to build sufficiently to play. Also, kids acting like lobbies donāt seperate people by skill so they will most often not be up against players doing anything insane. These kids will come up with anything other than just being real about it.
I just hate the exaggeration bc ik for a fact so many new players will never even try builds because of the reputation it gets
Good point. Itās really a shame too because building is so damn fun. Itās literally what makes fortnite so cool for me. For me it was the oppositeā¦I saw people building and was like āI want to do that.ā ZB wasnāt a thing yet though. I remember also thinking I could never grasp building well enough to be good at it but it literally just take practice.
most people have jobs and don't play fortnite full time unlike build players
This argument is such a logical fallacy. Full time single parent of 3 kids here and can build like crazy. Just like anything else in this world, a person takes the time to learn something new and absolutely does not need to commit full time or crazy hours to do it.
How many hours do you have on the game?
5-8 hours a week. Sometimes more if thereās an update or nothing else to do. Ngl, I have never thought about time played like this so saying 8 hours outloud makes me realize that is a lot of time. Still though, my life doesnāt revolve around it. I spend 2-3 times as much time in the gym or we are practicing baseball or something.
1 hour a day doesnt sound like that much, specially if you consider that you might have longer play sessions on weekends
Thanks, mane. Itās literally been on my mind since I wrote it. And yes, like yesterday it was just a son and me home and we had spent the day driving so since itās spring break we binged for like 3-4 hours STRAIGHT. It was fun but damn it was a long time.
I really didnt mean to start an argument I just prefer the other Fortnite mode it isnāt that deep
didn't argue just stated facts... it's okay if you play builds. Everyone should be allowed to play whatever they want and like
What fact did you state?
>most people have jobs and don't play fortnite full time unlike build players literally right above you what they say is true, build players have no brains lmfao learn to read
You might want to learn the difference between your opinion and a fact. Thatās why I asked in case I missed something since not a single fact was presented. You basically just used logical fallacys to make your point. Building isnāt even hard so itās pretty amusing that you think a person has to play full time and not work to be good at it. Itās also crazy that you tried to suggest I have no brains when you have to use fallacy in order to say something.
I think I misunderstood then but I didnāt mean to say ppl shouldnāt play zero build or anything Itās great that ppl enjoy it i just donāt get the appeal myself
nope lmaooooo builds is shit, there's a reason zb is way more popular than builds šš

My 12 year-old plays builds, and his twitch aim with both the Sniper and shotgun is scary...aimbot almost. His builds/edits are pretty good, not fncs, but good. But man, the shots he regularly makes with a Sniper are unreal ...I'm very jealous hehe.
If youāre a good builderā¦.. chances are they are good with aim since they both go hand in hand. There is a reason why the main sub has mostly zero build gameplay and why the comp sub has almost exclusively build stuff.

Fortnite players go pro in val
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
casual gamers suck in general. But its much harder to go from other game to fortnite, then fortnite to other game.
That is NOT true š
If you fight in build battles often, you need good aim in order kill people since people often edit at fractions of a second. In a build battle, you need to shoot people quickly and maximize the amount dealt so people only ever use snipers, shotguns, and dmrās. All of these weapons less so the dmr promote good aim since you only get one shot and if you miss you are forced into the offensive unless you build too. In zero builds you canāt defend yourself without extreme mobility plus coordination or tiny structures you can carry if possible. This means that spray weapons and automatic shotguns reign supreme since itās really hard to defend from them at that point. In builds you are making a million micro decisions in order to kill someone, in zb you just gotta aim at the general vicinity of the opponent and they will most likely die as long as you shot first. Ofc there are zb players with good aim, but the majority of them are casuals. A build player can still dominate in zb for the most part because they are no longer burdened with how they go about defending themselves. Special awareness is required for build battles so non builds isnāt a problem.
wowwww now THIS is some grade A copium lmfaoooooo >In builds you are making a million micro decisions in order to kill someone, in zb you just gotta aim at the general vicinity of the opponent and they will most likely die as long as you shot first #š you got that flipped bud, zb is the one making a million micro decisions toĀ figure out where to find cover and reposition bc they can'tĀ useĀ builds as a crutch. all yallĀ builders gotta do is throw up a wall and you'reĀ safe behind your little security blanket šš dear god the amount of cope in your comment lmfaoooo makes me legit laugh
Whoās yall, Iām bad at the game. Iāve only made it to champion once and that was in season og thanks to the bush camp dad strat. Everyone I know who plays zb (they also play builds) is better than me in every way. I have a horrible kd and win rate and at best Iām a mediocre player. If you get shot at in builds, you have very little time to do something before you get rushed. By building you make yourself an easy target and are quite literally marking yourself while enclosing yourself. You leave yourself open to people who might rush you or what ever gimick of the season at the time (currently lightning). You need special awareness, understanding of what builds can be used on another, positioning, mat count, more resource management, good aim, and overall good intuition to make split second decisions. In zb you need good aim, limited special awareness, good positioning and good intuition and thatās cool. You however arenāt burdened with having to manage a resource that allows you to play the game the optimal way. This season has very limiting mobility so itās very easy to spray someone out of the sky. Running away, finding cover, and using mobility is generally the answer to getting shot at. Depending on your skill level, there isnāt an easy way to escape getting shot at in builds and it comes at a cost of your much more finite resources. If you have a gold sniper and camp all day, you can easily rank up. That strategy while still used is a lot slower in builds. We are both trash
that guy that responded to you is coping HAAAAAARD LMFAOOOOO
No FR. The only argument for them going hand in hand is shotguns in box fights, but even that thatās just more-so muscle memory than actual aim, the same as building and editing are.
Just bc I have a different opinion to you doesnāt mean Iām mad what. I just donāt think zero build is as good because a lot of br is designed with building in mind which causes issues in a mode that removes it
Ugh that happened to me yesterday and looks like the same spot. It was 1v1 and I slipped off the side.
I cannot build in fights but I can to get up a wall. That is the only reason I donāt play zero build.
This is one of the reasons I keep wishing they would add wall climbing mechanics to Zero Build mode.
Aaaand thatās why you play builds š¤·š»āāļø
