I think a great way to improve at specific fundamental mechanics is to go into red vs blue creative or whatever creative map to get fights in and specifically limit yourself to learning and utilizing that mechanic. Trying to learn close range fighting without aiming down sights? Grab a wrapon and only fight while not aiming. Trying to learn weapon swapping? Take fights and force yourself to weapon swap between pump and spray
Getting absolutely beamed by gold twin mags is the bane of my existence. Knocked almost instantly.
I love the satisfying shot of gold twin mag 😌
Actually skill issue, not even kidding.
That shit is op, ruined this season for me at least

I got a 17 Elim victory royale today by just constantly moving and third partying fights with a shotgun in the jungle. Thanks for the tips on here. You've done more to help me improve my game than any other content creator.
I feel the golden lama back bling made me painfully aware of my areas to improve. The way you offer a different frame of thought to the game has helped a lot. Im currently working a lot on my shotgun hip fire accuracy and man do the little things matter.
That play where you turned around and shock waved behind the person while already facing them: 1mil IQ. 🔥
Coming 2nd is my new hobby this season apparently
Same, probable gotten over 50 second places this season 😭😭
@@Saikosan123 I’ve got 40 crowns so far I should have like 100 but I just keepin getting beamed 😂
@@jayfern9798 I got like 59 wins this season, I would have probably gotten more if I didn't suck at solos. Only 6 wins in like 350 matches😭 I haven't gotten more than 10 solo wins in a season since chapter 3 s4 even tho I play more than like 300 solo matches every season
@@Saikosan123 how many solo wins u got altogether
@@jayfern9798 51 wins in 3700 matches
I am back, because of your other videos i was able to get my first win and after this video i was able to get my first crown win(B2B Win). Thank you so much for your help!
I don't know if I play too little. It is not that I only play one hour a week. But sometimes, I only play one hour a day. I don't know what is a good amount of matches to have in a day. I would love to play 4 hours a day. I don't think that is too much time. I don't think 4 hours a day is too much time playing Fork Knife.
Otherwise, there is a lot of other mistakes I make as well. Like chasing too much and opting into 50/50 too much. I also tend to get tilted and hate myself for making mistakes. That is something I need to work on.
started playing some creative maps (zb pit, 2v2 w my duo, and red v blue) and have already noticed such a difference in my skill! ty for the great tips!
Great video. Playing too much is a real problem. Easy to get lazy and then frustrated. Thanks
Your tips, feedback and encouragement is always on point and immensely helpful. Thank you Jake, for all your detailed and well thought out advice!
I know I’m late and you probably won’t see this (I’ll comment it in the next vid) but I absolutely love the showcase of your deaths and mistakes, helps me learn a lot. Thought it’d be awesome to see more of this but take you time, your vids have made my gameplay go from like gold 3 to diamond 3 to champ.
Thanks for the video. I’m definitely working right shoulder peek and use of cover more. I’m use to just being in the open and using my ar on people.
Great video!
Your tips have been so helpful.
The tip that has helped me the most is getting in more fights.
I never thought I would kill kado let alone land at ecclipse in solos but I just went for it and finally got to him and beat him.
I started playing a year ago ch4S1, and I haven’t played shooters since the original Unreal series on PC (yeah, I’m 47). But I love this game and play every night for about 3 hours.
Using a controller setup was a totally new thing for me and at first I thought I’d never get it, but I’m relieved to say you can develop better muscle memory even at my age. Your videos have helped so much, but not with my aim - I have to learn that myself. But tactically speaking your advice on right shoulder peek, shockwave and mobility, using creative, is great.
I’m currently working on learning how to shockwave sideways through cover to get behind the player - that is genius.
Since they launched ZB ranked I’ve got (very slowly) to Platinum 1, and I’m really happy with that. But close range fighting is so quick and one small error just destroys you.
Learning the basics and not getting lazy is an absolute must.
I’m nervous about season5 - if they make all the changes they’re talking about I’m not sure I’ll enjoy it as much. I never play build as it’s just too much too fast to try and learn how to build at the speed you guys do!
People who are build player but watch Jake cause the content is just that good 👇
I’m here!
Me lol
sometimes i like to join duos matches as a solo to make it more difficult for myself, and want to find targets faster
Speaking of this topic, this is how I ended up quitting Fortnite:
I personally had a HYPERACTIVE period this summer (aka last season), I was playing pretty much all day long. Even during that, I saw the issues. In the first 2 hours of the (pointless at this point) daily session, it was fine, getting like average 2 crown wins a day (got to 102 crowns at the 50-day mark) and stuff like that, but playing further the same day was pretty much pointless and had no result at all. After taking a 5 day vacation (on August 8-13), I jumped right back in,, only to feel terrible and playing just out of addiction 😞
Season 4 came out and I felt a bit refreshed. In fact, I even got 46 crowns, until September 17th when I didn't have as much time to play. I was playing less and less, until September 24th, when I ended up taking the hit and entirely ABANDONING MY PC due to it consuming all of my time. Plus, by October, my cravings to play Fortnite had fully stopped, and I haven't logged on since.
In short, don't be too active, doing so can ruin your experience.
I see myself coming back if it ever comes to my mind in the future, who knows? In about a year?
Also, why does it seem to me that I quit right when all the content dropped?
I’ve played less than an hour the past two weeks but still watch Jake’s daily updates. Love the game, just have no free time for it now.
I played fortnite chapter 1 season 2-4, took a break till season 8 where i played only that season. Then i came back which ever season they released the deadpool skin for and played till i got that skin and quit which took like no time at all. Then i just started playing again chapter 4 season 3 at the end of the season because my buddy talked me into downloading the game. At the end of the day i just see gaming as a hobby, playing with my friends and goofing off after a long day of work is just what i wanna do sometimes.
@@tmoney1487 Good for you, it's just a game anyway. Don't be like me, who tends to take games a bit too seriously, even if I'm not necessarily up to it.
@@K008gri have the same problem. Burn out makes you want to stop doing the things you like.
I have 2 states:
- I get too tunnelvision, play ultra aggro and make stupid decisions (like shockwave on someone without opening tags and die)
or
- I'm too scared to do anything, and I'm ratting all game long.
Nothing in between
The glider kills around two mins are awesome!
I've actually been doing better thanks to your advice
Thank you Jake.
Thanks for the tips!
Yo playing in auto pilot and not remembering fundamentals got me thinking and going to try it out thank you
I think you're right because when I play aggressive I get more kills and feel more relaxed.
My biggest problem is over chasing too. Wasting a stack of shockwaves to go after someone only to be 3rd partied with no way of getting out again. And taking too many 50/50 fights. I can beat most players in those situations but only have to miss one pump shot or come around a tree the wrong way and it’s back to the lobby.
i’ve always tried to not third party because i hate being third partied, but lately i’ve been trying to just go after fights i hear and third partying, and i’ve been getting more wins and higher kill games so maybe that’s the strat
Thanks for another great video Jake. I recently came across a creator that makes very similar videos 🤔 does that stuff bother you or do you just attribute it as part of the game and continue on just doing your thing? Their channel kind of bothered me.
No I wasnt the first person to make informative videos on a video game and I wont be the last.
@@EvolveJake no doubt 🤙🤙
i use to play in this creative map for zero build, i swear this map is really helping me out, i play there everday, i like this map bc there some very good players, high lvl lobbys there
What's the name of this map?

On the subject of getting in more fights to improve:

One thing that's been making me insane lately, really ruining the quality of my games, is I feel like I'm running all around the map all day long and never seeing anybody. The broom has cut down on this a little bit due to the greater mobility, but there are just so many wide open areas of the game where there's nobody there. Feels like the map is too big and or many areas have poor traversal.
I win 1 out of every 3 games I play for sure. I want that to go up to 2 out of 3 tho. Ur videos have def helped
1 out of 3 is crazy good already!!!
Haha me over here at 1 out of 25 giving you the side eye 😂
Enjoying your content alot 👍 What other games did you play in your earlier years to form your strategic and tactical thinking i games? For me its been cs, wow and wot😂🤣
CoD, Halo, Battlefield, Destiny, Rainbow Six Siege. Lots of shooters.
You should discuss the new next season leaks on a video and the implications of the removal of mantling and tactical sprinting
I will tomorrow
What? They’re removing mantling??
I saw a post where they’re supposedly removing ZB too, but mantling and sprinting?
This seems OTT
Is it because we’re time shifting back to 2018 when those things weren’t possible?
Thanks for the video Jake. Can you tell me some creative maps to practice for zero build death match that you mentioned in the video? Thanks 🙌
I found a game called “the pit” which also has a “the pit zero build”. You get to pick your loadout from most vaulted guns/equipment and just play ffa against 8-12 people. I’m getting 50+ engagements in a half hour and if I were to play regular BR that could take me hours. Super fun too and has a solid public player base!!!
@@dillenbeck16 Thank you! I'm going to jump in now and check it out
Jake has some maps in the description of this video. I personally like "Red vs Blue rumble"
Also you should use weapons that are in the current loot pool if you want to improve
I used to be super nervous late game to the point of shaking. Now I just don't care I treat 1v1 just the same as off spawn fights if I loose on a 1v1 I just have another game.
What’s your sensitivity?
Played the pit, so much fun. Who cares if you die. Just the amount of action is awesome. Learn shockwaves easily!
I play 34 for my x and y look sens on the controller and it works out perfectly 🤷🏽♂️
Hi EJ, Thanks for all of the great content. I was watching this episode and noticed that you can spam crouch while shooting very well with a controller Can you teach us how you do that? Thanks!
I use right stick crouch and just spam click it. There is not really much to it aside from that
I don't like creative lobbies. I get in there and get spammed spammed spammed. I don't get a chance to learn anything. At least in pubs I can watch as I play and lurk around the ones who elim'd me and learn from that. Slower for sure but being a 3 in a lobby with 10s.... no way to learn.
Have you tried playing Pixalateddreams’s Anvil FFA? There’s a mix of decent to pro players at all times of the day. It’s a great way to practice weapon combos and even AR shots.
Whats the creative map code from this video?
What's the code of the Zero build creative map that you are playing?

Main reason is I was on ps4 so I quit about a year ago and haven’t improved since😂
This game is so dookie on ps4
@@ackakkagreed game is way too laggy on ps4
Lately I’ve been focusing more on utility and not fighting for some stupid reason.
Jake does adding extension grip on thumb stick controller can make a better aim?
it can its mostly preference tho. I use a high rise galaxy kontrol freek on the right stick and then nothing on the left. Code EvolveJake saves 10% on KontrolFreek orders iirc.
@@EvolveJake damn might try it on, no wonder my aim is going in places and not accurate
Call me crazy but I've been having alot of fun lately using the suppressed assault.
You are crazy.
You’re crazy dude!
Nah I agree - I avoided it for ages because EJ was so down on it, but actually at medium distance it’s pretty solid because of the lack of recoil (I’m not very good at aiming)
@@davidmuaddib ye it can be good but it sucks at longer ranges compared to the twin-mag
this may be off topic but why did he use the shield if he was max health
Pretty new to the game. Have a question: why do some people have recoil and some people don’t? I’m on PS5 and have crazy recoil! Frustrating!
I pull down when shooting to counter the recoil.
I honestly don’t stress during late game it’s always just early and middle someone tell me why
4:38 very rare moment of seeing Jake die
The challenge I have is not moving my cross hair while pushing on the right stick. Obviously you have figured it out. 😊
I do use a high rise galaxy kontrol freek on my right stick. Not sure if this helps with that cause Ive used them since like 2011

i been watching alot of these vids but i still cant improve
to those apprehensive about creative: you gotta try different modes, find one you enjoy- not j the most popular ones bc that’s where the sweats are waiting. i swear, creative can be fun! plus, you learn a lot about yourself as a player. i’ve met most of my fortnite friends in creative :) and it fr has made me into a MUCH better player. don’t get discouraged >.
Jake I just got a switch.. download fornite .. didn't buy pass . Bought switch because it is cheaper than ps5... Can you do a video for players on switch.. .. the game feels different on it
I have never owned or played on switch so I have no idea
Im guilty of getting complacent
Can’t see creator map codes in the description
updated it
My problem is playing with random who have no mics and don't know how to push properly

it’s crazy how people are scared of temporary failure for long term success, I met someone still using combat pro the other day 🤦♂️😂
I’m out here getting headshot sniped from 300 meters while in a car. I swear there’s more cheaters in this game than in years past
I don't think it's possible to snipe a person in a car with cheats, since the snipers are not hit-scan. Car moves so predictably that even me who never snipes could hit a player in a car
I think I’m at a disadvantage bc I play on ps4 and have terrible internet
What's this creative map code ? 7:52

My tip is track the bullet
Bro i’ve been playing regularly for 2 years and i just never get better
I challenge you to do the impossible. Do a video on how to cope with squad fills. I will bet you can’t.
thats what I call a Fortnitemare 😂
at 3:25 how did he even see that person ? -__- seriously
Ah my problem is a skill issue
I’m tired of snipers being meta lol
Thats what my bro does he dont know how to use the twin mag so he said its horrible and uses a sniper
There is a skill cap on console
He forgot to say upgrade you wifi
Did you test mero s setting ?
The aim is 6 h and 8 V
Pretty low
he plays similar base sens to me 41 41 linear. When i was talking about someones sens being super low i was talking about their base sens not aim
@@EvolveJake correct . But the aim is also very important in my mind
wow I was already catching up on your videos and I refreshed and this popped up 1 min ago sick 🫡
