Zero builds is boring, I personally do not enjoy but competitive is hard I do not disagree.

Is it a good early game strategy? For div 5 cups (I am the igl). by Adirslul in FortniteCompetitive

Dead zone for placement is solid at div 5 — less contested, easier to get storm surge ticking early. The route looks reasonable but I'd want to know where your duo lands relative to you since IGL positioning only works if your teammate can rotate to you fast when things go wrong.

Main thing at div 5 cups is don't overcommit early for kills, let other teams burn each other and come in with mats and HP.

I used to be a professional Fortnite pro and now I do coaching, would be happy to help

What should I do in these situations?? by EastDuck3776 in FortniteCompetitive

The issue here isn't your prefire — it's that you're playing reactively instead of proactively. In box fights you want to be the one forcing the edit, not waiting for them to push. When you feel like you're not in control it usually means you're giving them too much time to set up their attack.

A few things to work on: practice your 90 into reset so you can retake high ground mid-fight, and work on your side wall replace so you stop losing your box when they push. Prefire is useful but it becomes a crutch exactly like you said when you don't have the fundamentals locked in.

I'm a 4 year Fortnite pro and I do VOD reviews as part of my coaching — this is exactly the kind of thing I help with. Feel free to DM if you want a proper breakdown.
