THIS is The Chapter 4 Meta (Fully Explained) 

Sorry there's not many clips of specifically what I'm talking about, at this point in the season I'm more just theory crafting ideas and there's no real clips of them yet. The first tournament is on the 18th of December so after that I'll have much more specific VODs to work with! Edit: you can both rotate with the Hammer so no need for both players to carry it!

The augments are overall a great addition, they allow for so many different strategies to cater to minute differences between play styles, and I can’t wait to see some unique strats in comp

Excaliber rifle is literally what the exotic heavy sniper should have been like

I honestly feel like the tac pistol is better than the scar in every way. It’s a super underrated gun, and if you can control the recoil, it fries. Not only this, but it uses light ammo. Add onto this the two pistol perks, one that increases mag size and another that decreases reload time, and it’s probably the best all-in-one gun in the game.

the thunder pump feels pretty consistent with its damage compared to maybe something like the striker shotgun, Im not sure if it is better than a prime shotgun though

You can get a launch pad as floor loot, as well as one spawning in already place from a specific reality rift that appears randomly on the map. Theres around 10-12 possible different rifts, so its EXTREMELY rare that you'll find one, but you can get one, technically, as floor loot.

I love the way how excalibur and hammer gives variety to players. Both of them are op in comp and i think it really depends on how you want to play

the mythic excalibers damage is super similar to the pre nerf (c2s2) heavy sniper thanks to 150 damage guaranteed on bodyshot which is already crazy for such an easy to use gun i also noticed while playing that i can just spam it at moving vehicles and constantly chip damage the vehicle and the players inside it thanks to the exploding projectile so if this doesnt get nerfed/removed from comp loot pool team tournaments gonna be really rough

In team-based modes, you can actually hit your teammate with the hammer’s primary attack and it’ll send them flying like a normal shockwave

Liked the video before watching because I'm excited about a Reisshub upload even during the ads

the best at is definitely the tac ar. not only does it have a new red dot sight but it also has 0 recoil and has 0 bloom in box. it also takes smg ammo

saw epikwhale launch himself and teammate with the hammer

Love this video explains everything perfectly

Great video Reiss!

Or you could just take a bunch of hammers and a chug cannon or chug splashes which is op for mobility and is pretty strong sometimes. Another combo is the party time augment with a sniper and something to destroy builds

I’ve noticed there’s times when I use the shockwave movement part of the hammer that like 95% of the time I launch myself and then there’s that 5% where it just randomly works on my teammate. But what I’ve been doing for that is I’ll tell my teammate to jump and then I’ll use the slam to launch them and then I’ll soon follow behind with the movement part of the hammer. It’s annoying and unfortunate but it works

Love it reiss👌

i reckon duo tournaments will be chaos with the angler augment as one player can sit in zone for several minutes just surviving on jellyfish while the other player can easily get surge.

Nice WAVE Highlight video! 😁

your video editing skill are too good

the partytime reality augment with a shockwave hammer is like a nibus cloud

good vid man

Took you long enough 🙃 Btw luv these vids!

I personally play zero build semi aggressively and my load out is usually the redeye ar/ tactical ar if it’s available to me, the thunder shotgun, tactical pistol, chugs or minis doesn’t really matter to me, and until I get the shockwave bow I’ll use the hammer

Excaliber I feel like is a cross between the boom sniper and the hunting rifle… I love it

I still believe that from what I played in Fortnite and what I’ve experienced the first version of the pumpkin launcher variant of the rpg was absolutely insane… damaging people inside their builds for 115+ damage

You can use the hammer to launch ur teammate so if they have glider redeploy it’s good also the hammer I used it to break through a build then to pump my opponents as he was exposed and I was above hin

I would say the best loadout would be: thunder shotgun, tac pistol (instead of a scar and/or smg), hammer or excaliber, and double heals as well, I think the pistol is one of the best weapons this season

i personally play with excalibur-thunder-shockhammer-duoble heal and as i rotation i do from the isle in the top snow and going to fish for flopper and there are some free chug

It’s crazy how you’re putting in 10x more work into these videos than any other fortnite creator but getting less views. Keep up the grind, it will eventually pay off

I find myself never picking up an AR. I’m use that ex cal as an ar basically. So I’ll run an ex cal, shotgun if I find a decent one, if I don’t find a decent one I’ll run a twin mag sub, hammer, then splashes or minis. Or take out splashes and then I’ll run an AR. That storm mark I believe it’s called? Where at the start of every zone move and zone close it marks nearby enemies. Love that perk. I’ll run that with forecast, bush warrior, and Arielist. Pretty decent set up

You can actually boost your teamate by hitting them with the hammer. And if they have the glider redeploy perk they can stop themselves from getting launched into zone

To launch your team mate you can do the melee attack

U can slam Hammer ur friend to fling him in the right direction (Edit): u can also use the storm marker reality augment to locate enemies

you can rotate as a duo with one hammer btw

Very helpful

My best loadout : thunder shotgun + pistol + mini + splash + hammer

you can launch pads from a secret npc and also by claimng an area

What about bows? I've been trying them out and the stink bow and flame bow are pretty goated to use instead of an AR. Helps with any rats that keep pushing for the bush positions

Solid content

don't you ever sleep on the versatility of the machine pistol, epic put the stats low to some guns so they get slept on.

My preferred load out is. Tactical ar/ red eye Combat shotgun/thunder shotgun Hammer/stink bow Minis Chug splashes I also like having the party time augments.

Not only are you missing out if you do not use the shockwave hammer, but you pretty much HAVE to use the shockwave hammer.

first lol. also nice vid, love to see you upload

yes u can launch your teamate with u the launch function has a small hitbox infront of u that launches people

Nice

I see the sword sniper as a reskin boom sniper

The tac. pistol is quite OP me and another guy headshot killed each other at the same time same pistol and rarity😢

How did you make the signs that appear on the screen?

What's better? The tactical pistol or twin mags? I love the pistol but can't get to grips with the twin mags.

Im not a comp player so this is all theory. Would it make sense to run a red eye rifle early and mid game for surge then when you get a refresh switch to a scar?

Is it good if i play it this way? 1. Reddot Rifle 2. Thundershotgun 3. Double mag SMG 4. Hammer or Excalibur 5. Heal is this good?

i use a shotgun, ex-caliber, hammer and two meds in all modes its so op

You can get perks in arena?

Ok so best load out is 3 hammers one shotgun. I would say either thunder or combat, depending on how well you can land headshots and dodge. The 4 hammers seem like a meme, and they are, but having 12 bounces and the ability to negate fall damage and have massive knock back is huge. You can choose your perks, but one you NEED is bush warrior, as you can’t carry heals so you need ways to quickly and consistently heal

For people who play zero build like me the uzi is probably a better smg as the twins smaller mag size can result in you dying from the stop in dps, the Excaliburs box breaching abilities are repurposed for killing people in cars and the maven is still kinda bad.

i use red eye maven shockwave hammer ex caliber and chug splashes

I genuinely can't wait to watch this video, will update my comment at the end of it

whats youre opinion on the materials? and where to farm them cause its so hard to get mats this season.

As a Fortnite enjoyer myself, I want to say 2 things. 1. Great video keep it up. 2. Fortnite is one of the few Bastions of Video game fun we have left. I hope we are careful to not META the fun out of it🤔🤘

I have been using the pistol or smg instead of any ar

The gameplay😩💀

My ideal load out is Chugs splash Tactical AR combat shotgun Hammer Smg/Excalibur/ grapple bow

W vid

Red eye is best in all scenarios. The other ARs are never worth using imo if u need something for close range you shouldn’t use an AR. Red eye is perfect for medium to extremely long range and is even better than the DMR. The gun is way overtuned and a must have. I only play zero build tho so the strategy is simpler

Epikwhale found a way too use one hammer in duos

whats the name of the skin your using?

I’m trying to get my video quality like you

I don't use dmr because it uses medium ammo aswell as a rifle and it just hurts my heaf

I hate that damn Excalibur gun

Correction: you can find tactical assaults in drones at hotspots as well

Bows?

u can use hammer with ur duo

I think the hammer should take up 2 slots.

Ive been playing red eye too much, cod has brought me round here, help

every weapon has been updated. some has been nerfed and some has been buffed and you should make another vid on this

Haven’t seen a single tactical weapon yet

2:26 what map is this? Please can someone tell me what is the creative map code for this one?

Combat shotgun >>

You forgot the burst assault rifle

You can get launchpads from npcs

I’m getting 20 kill wins bc of the hammer

All of the weapons feel underwhelming to me this season

Well the guy at 3:45 got blended

he cracked tho

are we not gonna talk reiss's insane math skills at 2:32

Meta…. Shockwave hammer, the end 🙄😂

I use machine on controller as a shotgun its abusive

Where’s the damn fish collection

Didn't you say that the tactical armory was bad as it was unessicary at the point where you get it?

Use Balloons and shockwave bow. I’ve won ~10 games with that. I forgot to mention that it only really works in no build.

pistol is op upclose

5:39 i tested it and apparently it only heals white

Funny I thought the hammer and an rpg was the meta lol

THIS is The Chapter 4 Meta (Fully Explained) ==> Skybase above renderdistance: Go to some always uncontested shit spot, camp there till storm is there, farm heals and mats (surely there is some metal here and there), build skybase, once on max height dip into zone, win or get top 2. ==> 7x top 2 every tournament

I disagree use tactical ar combat shotgun hammer Excalibur and chugs

where are you from? I like your accent

The meta is play No builds mode.

The thunder shot gun crosshairs are so shit same w the spread

The new AR has way more bloom than the OG scar, a legendary normal AR it is not worth taking over a gray red dot thing imo, it is way to unreliable
