If you are relatively new to Fortnite<\/strong>, you are probably struggling with the multitude of unique mechanics the game consists of, primarily the importance of building and playing around these builds, this might have led you to prefer Zero Build<\/strong> as your gamemode of choice, which presents players with a new array of obstacles even through omitting the building mechanics. You will often find yourself encountering enemies from multiple different angles<\/strong> and without the safety of being able to build a defensive structure while caught out in the open, which will force you to adapt through your ability to move evasively and hone your aim mechanics<\/a><\/strong>.

To compensate for the lack of defensive building<\/strong>, you will need to train your ability to react swiftly to potential threats from various directions, there is nothing worse than getting ambushed from multiple directions and being unable to respond adeptly due to poor mechanics. It is important that you feel comfortable widely adjusting your crosshair and turning to face long-distance attackers. Remember, try to refrain from getting caught out in the open<\/strong> too frequently, make use of the map\u2019s layout<\/strong> to your advantage by maintaining cover and always opting for the high ground<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting accustomed to multi-directional engagements can be tough, and due to the nature of the battle royal genre, simply playing the game will not allow you to engage in combat frequently enough to hone individual mechanics, especially not in the context of something as specific as practicing flicking while being surrounded by opponents. This selected task will train your ability to deal with such encounters by spawning a multitude of targets around, effectively forcing you to get comfortable with situations where you are getting attacked from all angles. Focus on practicing target acquisition<\/strong>, flicking<\/strong> to your targets, and correcting<\/strong> your aim to click on the target as quickly as possible without compromising your accuracy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ability to react swiftly to threats from all directions is a critical skill to have for Zero Build Fortnite, as getting caught off guard<\/a><\/strong> without the ability to build can be a total disaster. Remember to utilize the map’s features for cover<\/strong>, look out for high ground<\/strong> to tilt engagements into your favorite, and use the ability that you have developed with this practice to seal the deal!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
