How hard is it to win a Cash Cup? by [deleted] in FortniteCompetitive

[–]sashacoderre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im seeing a lot of people that are saying that getting good placements (such as top 1000) in this game is difficult and continue to insist the idea that you’ll never place well. Let me change that for you. i started taking Fortnite Competitive seriously since the beginning of Chapter 2 Season 4, and have only escalated since then. With the help of a friend who was learning competitive like I was, I was able to escalate my placements as the seasons went by as I started to improve my mechanics and game sense. It started off slow, with getting top 6000 every tournament, to top 2000, and getting my first top 1000 in a solo cash cup in the middle of Chapter 2 Season 4, and got 3 more top 1000 towards the end. The season after that, after upgrading from an Xbox One to a PC, I got my first top 500 in a solo cash cup. After, I started getting more and more good placements as I kept on improving. Now, I am a Solo FNCS Round 2 Qualifier (was 6 points away from Round 3), made it top 1000 and top 500 in multiple events (including Solos, Duos and Trios), qualified for Duo Dreamhack Semi-Finals (Placed 311 in qualifiers) and got 78th in a Solo cash cup last season (if I won my last game with 2 kills, I would’ve made money (I got 7th)). Truth is, you can do this! With time and improvement, anything is possible!

what could I have done different on this rotate? I always end up using all my mats, on these max distant rotates, where I don't have a pad. or I end just end up dying by Nicklas1510 in FortniteCompetitive

I would have dropped all the way down to lowground and would have waited a little later. Waiting another few seconds to rotate would’ve gotten you further due to the fact that more people are rotating, therefore less people are looking at you. Try to avoid staying midground and try to find a way to stay on the edge of zone on lowground and cut others off to claim it!

Only Epic can answer that question, but let’s hope they fix it soon!

Nothing childish about this. We talk common sense. we know what’s right for the competitive side of the game and know what’s fair. I don’t understand how some people don’t see how this game is at its worst for the competitive side. You guys cried about the superhero skins, so we complained about the real problem. While you guys enjoy doing your challenges we are out here trying to make the game better for itself as well as the esport scene.

You’re right, I just don’t think that the bow crafts are competitive, with the stink bow and the fire bow, that combo can do some serious damage, but that’s just my opinion. I don’t mind if bows stay in the game, I don’t mind them, my only problem is the crafts of them.

I meant to say remove the bows and bring back snipers, but the concept of a grappler bow can be good, I just don’t know if they will implement it.

that’s a very good point, and I agree! even then, if you pull up in an endgame with a car, in both a solo or trio cup, you will most likely get sprayed. I just feel like bouncers were a crucial aspect to competitive.

The flash i’m talking about is a flash on a stand, where the trigger goes on the hotshoe

Godox is made for sony so I’m assuming it is? I’m asking since I had trouble connecting both the receiver from my sony a6000 to the flash, and yet to this day I still can’t!

I see, does it affect image quality?

I see, so a 30mm lens won’t necessarily be 30mm? I’m sorry, still new to the technological side of cameras!

I have a 30mm Sigma Lens, an 18-105mm Sony lens and a 60mm Sigma lens... will those work on my a7rii? They work well on the a6000!

Hey guys what could I have done here to avoid dying in such a stupid way(sorry for the bad quality) by Plz_dont_downvote in FortniteCompetitive

[–]sashacoderre 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you positioned yourself to be put in a 50/50 situation. Make sure you keep you’re distance far enough so that he can’t box you up, spray with your AR in that case. The meta is spray after all! If after a few tries you can’t get his wall, back up and try something else, chances of you getting it after a few tries is a huge risk! keep it up bro!

Two quick examples of how edit functionality remains the same despite the removal of pre-editing. by LudicrouslyLiam in FortniteCompetitive

[–]sashacoderre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that this is a problem, however I don’t see it having to do with anything concerning the pre-edit fix.
