Fast Mechanics In Fortnite Are Overrated 

Nowadays it’s more smart than really fast which is good to see so i dont have to get put into someones highlights 🤣

These tips are really helpful for fights and practicing it in creative. Having slow mechanics it can really help in thinking what to do in fights and controlling those fights easily and faster. Aiming and crosshair placement in these clips are the crucial points to when fighting as it allows you for good building and fighting like w-keying. W-keying in these clips also comes down to practicing fights which can get you better in fortnite. Getting down the basics can make you the best player there is in fortnite. ❤❤

How is he able to explain this perfectly and we all understand it like it's Nothing. Respect

I wouldn’t say fast mechanics are overrated, since they are still good in certain situations. But the thing is that a lot of players already have fast mechanics nowadays so mechanics alone isn’t going to set you apart. The real things that set regular players apart from pros is their aim, and their Good game sense ( smart decision making )

0:01 that transition is fire

The editing on these videos are phenomenal, keep up the good work bro!

THE TRANSITION IN THE FIRST 2 SECONDS WAS SO SMOOT, GOOD JOB

I never knew esport was this serious and not just building and shooting. Im a gamer myself with pretty good reaction times and fast thinking and problem solving but this is just crazy how these people can do the most insane things in milliseconds. Like thinking about what the opponent will do, what he should do, actually doing it and meanwhile being precise and always having the crosshair on the enemy even when theres a wall between them. Insane respect.

Your editing is always so clean, the replays mixed with the edits are so awesome

I think a really good idea is to breakdown Martoz’s gameplay, I think it would be very interesting especially with all the unique plays he does. Also a story video about Martoz would be great as his life story is very different to other people especially where he came from. Edit: Although I think he doesn’t play too much competitive fortnite and only plays ranked.

I'm an old player by Fortnite standards and my biggest problem in FN BR is not that my mechanics are too slow (we play in public lobbies mostly) but that I can't track the opponent, I often feel lost under pressure and don't know the right decision for the particular situation. In Zero Builds I'm fairly competent for average difficulty. Jeez, BR is complicated.

I loveee this channel. It shows a mature perspective of the game. keeping going, you're amazing

I thought I was getting decent, this shows me there is muchhhhh to go. Absolutely amazing gameplay and fantastic commentating. Love your content. I don't remember the last time I subbed anything, O wait I do, just now!

its nice and all but none of this is doable on high ping

EVEN PROS DONT CARE ABOUT BIG FLASHY SWEATY STUFF. It would be wrong to say that pros are not sweats (just look at their combos lol) but the way they play when anything is on the line is nearly completely void of any triple edits or edit courses. Most players think you need to wear a certain skin and be able to edit 42 times in a row in order to Jill someone, but pros show just how little sweaty mechanics actually matter. If you want good mechanics, learn how to: 1. Take walls 2. Tarp (while still conserving mats) 3. Protect yourself from all angles (I.e. boxing up, double editing, etc. 4. Edit walls smart (not standing right in front of your window edits, for example.) And there you go. That’s the basics and most of what you need.

You’re video always helpful

these tips are really good i realize i have to play a lot more confedeint as i see in thomas gameplay he gets a beam on one and has an instant healt advantage and thats a big step to winning fihgts

Do I play build mode at all? No. Did I watch the whole video? Yes.

so all ive heard from this is that thomas hd just has 0 ping and can take the opponents wall first try, and also get a cone in the box at the same time

This is so much to take all at once. Aiming and building and predicting must be very well practiced. And that’s one of those well predicted enemy building direction, right?

Bro reiss's editing is so good like wht

All I have to comment on is that the editing on this video is phenomenal.

Really helpful video Reiss 👍👍

holy shit that camera movement at 50 seconds is such a great video edit, i love it

ive been saying this, people try and do fancy shit and it opens so many doors for mistakes, just stay calm and slow tf down and u watch the little panicy tantrums unfold

If you’re not hitting clips you’re not having fun - Socrates

the editing is clean af🔥

it should really be added that epic hates fast mechanics and has been trying to balance the game to make it less mechanical since season 5. theres purposely added delay when first selecting a building piece and then turbo building is capped to a specific rate to allow the odd bullets through your build. all this combined with server latency makes building slower and more inconsistent. shot gun pullout times were increased to nerf switching between shotgun and building and smgs were super buffed to shoot through turbo building. and then ofc they removed phase boost mechanics for no reason other than good builders could use them. so whats left is we have a fortnite where the person who wins is the one who sprays the other player first. what a surprise

being able to box someone is already an incredibly high level mechanic

I totally agree with you and started to realize it. You just need to be clean and calm.

Amazing the quality of your videos, keep it up

edits insane, explaining insane, and teaching insane. keep it up

What I got from this video Intelligence > flashy builds

Fast mechanics certainly have their place though, particularly in staying alive

Loved this video, I’d also love to see a video about winning fights when you are low HP or 1v2

could not explain it better myself keep the amazing content up!

nice vid keep up the good work bro!

Its really nice to know that you can go pro without fast or high mechs

These tips help me to be a better fighter in Fortnite and it helps me end fights fast. It is so easy to learn these moves in creative. 😁🙂

You don’t need fast mechanics anymore you need low ping. Especially in solos. Duos can you get away with high ping but in a solos the person with lower ping probably has a 20% higher chance of winning the fight

i love this guy he just sprays and runs into their box so cool!

Tip 1: make sure you have 6 slurps

Finally someone who understands. I started playing very recently and I can compete with my friends who have been playing since 2018 and they build lightning fast (it’s scary and overwhelming) but I just slow down and build accordingly to their actions.

The only thing more impressive then Thomas's 30 bomb is that reiss uses K to edit, FREAKING K. 💀

your video editor needs a raise, awesome video!

W REISS LOVE THE CONTENT

At first glance, it seems like; "Oh! I can do that!" but than you realize it is 0.1x speed😒

Really good video prob best informational video ive seen on youtube

This is why I didn’t play fortnite again for years until zero build because everyone got absurdly good at building and there was just no way I would want to learn how to do that

I just wish epic can make the game in such a way that everyone gets low ping , after the whole central thing I now get 60ping in comp 😞u can have all the skill in the world but what sense that makes if you can’t hold a wall … , everything is just base on ping in this game. I love the game a lot but it’s hard out here on high ping man

How did i know this was a video on thomashd before i even clicked on it

Man fortnite is actually a really complicated game. People think its just get gun and shoot, but really its a lot of tactics, instincts and ability to adapt

3:08 crazy skill that’s so smart

I feel like you need to have half decent mechanics but you don’t need to be like the people doing 100 edits a second

This is why I still wouldn't have ever played Fortnite if Zero Build hadn't been introduced. Of course, some may say I still haven't, since I've only played ZB. This mode ceased to be a shooter long time a go. Its incredible. Don't get me wrong, but I find the gameplay almost incomprehensible to watch. I know its just me, because I'm not a builds player, but these clips were in slow motion and it still seemed like a LOT was going on.

i really dont like when the meta is a lot based on smg's... So annoying ppl keeping spamming over and over again

Another prime example of this, not a comp players but, is Martoz bro is insane

I think what you're missing is that this is hardly skillful in the slightest due to the entire meta revolving around barrel-stuffing (or as people like to say to make it sound "skillful", "W-keying") and spraying. Nowhere here is long-range aim skill or strategic positioning and planning required, and the buffed slurp juice effectively means that you do not have to worry about taking damage, as it can all be negated in a matter of moments, and almost everyone is going to have them to replenish your stock in a competitive match. The buffs to build speed, and the slow removal of any form of delay (build, edit, etc.) over the years has changed the game in that internet connection trumps over skill, so it favors people that live in places where they can purchase high-speed internet. To add on top of this, builds now have much less health and take much more damage than before, effectively making them useless in protecting you, which is a direct result of the removal of build delay. As you can imagine, this has completely erased the original intention of building, and a huge part of what made Fortnite so unique at the time - you could strategically set up cover and create a FORT to use as good positioning each storm circle. Rather than having to time your moves, in which everyone would have the chance to match you regardless of if they have 60 ping or 0, and would come down entirely to skill, positioning, and aim, you now have to be the first person to clip into someone's builds and shove your gun in their face, compared to before, where you had to strategically position yourself, time & place your shots well, and use your building pieces as defensive cover rather than as an aggressive weapon. It hardly matters if you have a strategic position or if you rush into every fight you see these days, which, as said, is NOT skillful. If you look at any other successful competitive games, you'd see that favoring connection speed and aggressiveness with unbalanced items or weapons over strategy and TRUE skill _DOES NOT WORK_ in a competitive scene. For the long-term health of the game, and its competitive modes, this is incredibly bad, and even competitive players can tell that something is wrong (but not exactly what it is that's wrong, as you can tell by the incessant complaining on social media lol). You'd also see that a strong distinction between casual and competitive modes is incredibly important for the health of the game. Blurring the line between the two has only made this game less enjoyable for new players and people that do not wish to play competitively, and that is NOT good for the game, as we have progressively seen happen over the years. Less and less new & old players play BR, and many have left the game for that reason, as BR is the main selling point of Fortnite. Zero-Build has helped in raising those numbers slightly, but it doesn't work for long, as people start to realize that these core issues of Fortnite are present in both modes due to the lack of a strong distinction between modes. Zero-Build is, at its core and effectively, BR without building, which does not work as you can imagine lol. Just my two cents, and obviously it's a lot more complex than that haha.

Ryan gosling: I am a famous actor Elon musk: I’m the richest man ever Me: I am Antonio verlice

the editing is insane wtf its like it changed overnight

Kinda helps to have 0 ping for actually taking stuff first if you’re gonna have textbook but slow mechanics.

The main problem I have with Fortnite is the Ping . All of these videos and clips of the pros look like they’re playing on easy mode and the basic wall take , wall edit and cone slide looks so easy in their gameplay but when you’re playing on a high ping you can’t just fight *simple* , you have to 50/50 a lot of the times or just catch your opponent lacking with a double cone and floor above

I do similar things to that, but I somehow get shot AFTER placing the builds.

That intro was fire

this will not help a player with a ping of 90-100.

Thank god, I was getting worried I had to use my keyboard and mouse in build mode too 😅

they’re not overrated, it’s just that they’re overhyped. mechs aren’t something that should be the only thing you’re focusing on trying to improve, rather they should be used as a single tool in a big tool box for certain situations.

How does he beam with the combat smg, the recoil seems crazy to me

such a good video (as always). how did you get the cinematics

DENMARK THOMAS HD LESS GOO

I'm much older than the average Fortnite player and the reason I can beat them sometimes is because I hit my flick shots / right hand peaks and I'm patient, waiting for them to slip up.

I got destroyed in elite ranked by bucke i need this next video

I feel like most people feel like they need to be really fast in fortnite but you really dont need to stress practicing flashy mechanics.

Agree.. ping is underrated

blud dropped the craziest transition and thought i wouldn't notice💀

title screams "I'm old and slow and need to try and prove why i'm still superior"

Great work, keep it up !

that first transition was clean as hell

ok but there’s no way all that thought actually goes into his actions while he’s playing tho right? how do people learn how to play like this and comprehend all of this that’s going on?

3:25 bro he's not learning all of that I promise to you

Love this, bro. Thank you so much.

Never knew 5 people could be first

Very entertaining and cool video this one is

sup. Love ur vids!

ThomasHD Glazing

New video idea is how to finish fights fast idk if it’s just me but sometimes I try to play aggressive but by the time the game end I’ll die and I’ll have like 2 kills

You can easily say you don’t need fast mechs but Thomas has the best aim and crosshair placement which we can learn but his is supernatural

First 🐐

In summary, what most people consider fast mechanics, reisshub does not

Me after watching some one who uses "simple edits", bro that would take me years to jump and place two cones.

what I've learned: have awful wifi. its funny wacthing all of thier shots full on miss and still do almost all the opponents health

Is it just me or is he hitting even though his crosshair isn't on the enemy? Or is it just the spectator mode?

Loved this one

Fast mechanics are objectively better assuming every other aspect is equal.

You're right but wrong at the same time, if you are able to have fast mechanics while having a mindset like this you could be unstoppable.

It's not that fast mechanics are overrated it's that having fast mechanics that aren't consistent isn't going to get you very far.

I believe that its good to have fast mechs so u know what to do but I think fighting iq in comp is more valuable

i love ur videos ❤❤

but what happens when hes getting pressured and hes low... if you dont got fast mechanics youre not gonna be able to get out of situations like that

ni vid the goat!!
