If you crap you pants the second your duo goes down, this is the guide for you. However advanced tactics are throughout that could help even the elite.
Firstly, know the value of each mode. You need to play solos to learn how to not rely on others...you need to play duos/squads to learn how to work with others and learn teammate habits. You need to play creative to work on building and editing routines so they happen effortlessly in emergencies. You need to play solo duos to learn how to not rely on teammates against multiple enemies at a time, and solo squads...that’s how you become an army of one. Once you don’t fear any amount of enemies...you will almost look forward to them knocking your teammates for the adrenaline boost (high) you get from overcoming a situation intentionally...almost lol.
‘Divide and conquer’ is as true in Fortnite as it is in anything else. You need to be able to confuse your enemies, never let them guess your next move.
You need to learn how to spot the team leader of any given team, and you need to take that person out first. (the team leader is the cocky one/the one who isn’t crouching(noob trait)/the person in the front of everyone else/the one that can build the best/mr edit pro) Once a team loses the person they all most rely on and revere...they panic.
You need to know the difference between when someone fears you, when they are flat out panicking, when they have no clue what to do now other than run, and when they are luring you into a trap.
Know that when you knock the team leader, more often than not...he doesn’t think his team can hack it without him and demands to be revived...read into that, and use it to your advantage. He will stress out the other already stressed teammates and that’s when you add another layer on top.
Most importantly, know how and when to build for EVERY scenario. Incoming grenades/rockets/smg fire/snipes...each scenario requires a different approach to counter building to maximize survival chances. Need to heal? DO NOT STAND OUT IN THE OPEN. Learning how to edit any type of panel and switch immediately back to your weapon will take you even farther up the greatness ladder.
Learn how to spot snipers, then learn how to trick them. That’s a tough logic to explain, but basically it comes down to predicting them while being unpredictable yourself. Use third person to your advantage or ramp/roof edits to see through straight to the enemies. DO NOT POKE YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE SAME PLACE TWICE IN A FIREFIGHT, OR EVEN TO LOOK FOR ENEMIES...Get them beaded onto a spot they are sure you will pop out of, and then change to a spot where ideally you think you would least expect someone to pop out and snipe you if you were them...then be quick. Didn’t work? CHANGE to a 3rd position...this will psychologically annihilate them.
You need to stop fearing rocket launchers (especially you people who get so frustrated that you start demanding they be vaulted). As with snipers, you need to be able to spot the guy with the rpg ASAP as well as what type of rpg he has to gauge danger, warn others immediately, and take rpg guy out FIRST in almost any situation if possible. If that’s not possible, you need to have enough mats to reverse build and put as much between you and them to destroy as possible to keep yourself/ teammates safe from blast. This is also how you will exhaust/waste their rocket supply. Count 13 rockets and they are out of ammo. It only takes one wooden panel to keep you from a blast...use that knowledge to get right up to a person who is dead set on killing you with a rocket to blow it up in their face with a wall or ceiling. Know the timing between rockets...always plan for the fastest reload unless you know otherwise for certain...use it to whatever advantage you have at the time.
If you kill someone inside a building, and know their friend is going to come. Know that the friend will be telling them where you are most likely to be...don’t be there, be opposite and shoot them in the back of their unsuspecting heads. Also a great time to put a trap down if you know someone’s going to come...if the friend didn’t get hit with a trap and the other is to far to have heard it...they have no warning other than their own situational awareness...use that.
If you’re teammate gets knocked in a build, know that the enemy wants them eliminated...also know that they potentially used all the steps mentioned above and are progressing to finish the job ASAP. They will assume often that you will stay right there and revive them...throw up enough panels to give them something to shoot at and suggest that you are staying to protect and revive...now your job is to pick them up, REMAIN UNSEEN, and bring them to the LAST PLACE you think the enemy is going to think you’ll possibly be while they still think you are there and are firing rockets/rounds to keep you held in place guarding your teammate. They will try to bring the whole place down to find you, but by then your teammates back up and you are one guard while they heal.
SOMETIMES HEALING ISNT AN OPTION...sometimes you have to finish the job NOW.
Time everything out in your head. Knowing that an enemy will get a revive before you will on your teammate is vital info. Knowing that if you revive a teammate in the storm you will both die instead of just them is vital information. They should be understanding, don’t let their cry’s sway you...they have their whole lives to get over it lol.
Lastly, if an enemy or a teammate does something that impresses/confuses/enrages/bewilders you...you can too. Figure out what they did, go into creative if it was a build technique you want to reverse engineer, add it to your routine and use it against them or for your own advantage. If it looks efficient and logical, it was probably done on purpose. Record and watch replays to get the fine details and learn from others and also yourself.
Feel free to follow me in case you need to re-reference any of of the info. (If that’s even how this works)
This started as a comment I made to someone wanting to get better and stop being afraid and asking how to go about playing with others without being overwhelmed...but it was too much info to give to just one person...decided to post it as well to reach more of you. Reworded it because it started out weird and catered to them specifically...didn’t think I’d type all this, but couldn’t stop after I started lol. Hope this helps with critical thinking. I’ll add things as they come to mind, and am open to addendums if any key things are brought up. Happy Fortniting boys and girls.
