It's so refreshing to see Fortnite content that isn't overedited clickbait garbage. This whole channel is high quality and full of genuinely helpful stuff. Thanks for making these videos.

[GregCook]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I sometimes get frustrated with my teammates taking a long time to loot, especially when we end up third-partied because of it.

Back when I first started watching you, I incorporated the sliding move (and "moving like a wild man" in general) as a normal part of my gameplay. It has made a huge difference.

Amazing video Toby! This is actually the exact way I got better in my games, I ran solo vs squads with the intention to find as many players as possible and end fights quickly. running the same predictable route faster and faster and try to add in more moves to fill the gaps makes you a better player for two reasons. You make decisions and actions faster, and you process and discard irrelevant information quicker. Expect to lose your games and just focus on making yourself super efficient and eventually the right plays just become very obvious since you have a trained eye. Still I'm very surprised that anyone made a video about this concept in an FPS game. Thanks for bringing something new to the FPS scene! :D

Never heard of APM before, but it seems to make sense. It’s like keeping your mind moving fluidly and not letting your focus get stagnant while also moving efficiently . That “skating” movement breaks my mind when I drill it.though; I have trouble keeping the momentum up. Thanks for another great video. Anyone else having serious problems with the sprinting glitch

[GrimReaperX_]

What an extremely instructive video for those who didn't know about it, and a good refresher for those who are aware of APM. I have a background in playing strategy games since I was like 9 years old, but true to your statement, it is not really spoken about much in Fortnite. I never used to do this until recently, and the results have been absolutely insane. Thank you for always providing us with such instructional content!

[TacticalTizm]

As someone who played a lot of WoW and Starcraft as well as shooters this concept is life the ability to give myself more possibilities to change the outcome is huge. I always enjoy hearing your takes on the cerebral side of fortnite so thank you for your time and effort.

I've been playing rts games for a very long time and the main ways i've found to increase my apm are
1. Be very consistent and practice weird scenarios. In fortnite weird scenarios be things like scuffed edits or any buttons or button sequence you have an awkward time pressing, a lot of people have higher apm than their average when they're doing things in their comfort zone or things they've already practiced a ton but it's when they get in scenarios theyre not used to that their apm starts dropping especially under pressure so practice those.
2. Increase your typing speed, and the good thing about this one is that it helps your finger speed and your accuracy with your keyboard across all games, this is probably the thing that helps me the most, i'd almost say that if you're fast at typing you probably won't need to worry about apm that much in games.

Hi Toby, I really want to thank you a lot for your content. I started playing fortnite at the end of chapter 4 and especially with the OG Season because my friends started playing it again. I‘ve always been the worst player in our team. Now that I started watching your videos for a few weeks I learned a lot and can finally help my team out. You‘re videos are so good and helpful I now understand whats important when playing fortnite zero build. Thanks a lot. I really appreciate your content ❤

[Grimsforge-Gaming]

Love this and YES!
Something that almost cut my stamina consumption in half on PC was turning off the Toggle Sprint button. This allowed me to simple sprint and let off the sprint when jumping. I could then sprint and the jumps didn’t consume stamina at all 😮

I've been buying on the store without supporting anyone, but I've been checking your videos so I'll support you with your code :) TobyWanShinobi, keep it up!

[alanwillis]

I highly recommend a membership! It's a great community that will make you a better human being and player.

[EthanTyler__]

This video alone drastically improved my gameplay. I always use to run out of stamina and be killed but with this I almost never run out and play way better than I ever did before thank you toby. Valuable content 👍

[mohammadm-urvh]

really great video... im still working on my movement and iam rally getting better with it even my friends are noticing the difference

[WVTarheel]

Nice, bringing a new concept to the space, and then illustrating with concrete examples, great video.

[Schlupi]

Dude I absolutely love your videos. I just started playing the game and you're my favorite CC I've found. I love your informative and non time wasting approach and very eloquent explanations on how to perform more advanced techniques. Thank you for your videos man.

The "touching grass" aspect was definitely apparent to me today. Since I went to the gym a little later than usual, I felt better when I started to play, and my second game was a five-kill win (no bots killed by the way) where I was hitting nearly every shot at 100 metres and out, on top of successfully keeping tabs on a medallion player and an unclaimed Forecast Tower. Having a healthy lifestyle can get you extremely far, and not enough people seem to realise.

The advice regarding inventory management is also crucial, and part of why everyone should experiment with the preferred item slots setting. I'm extremely likely to fumble early-game fights when I'm carrying random loot and not my ideal loadout, but the odds of that happening vanish the moment I get my preferred three weapons. It's especially critical for an avid bush camper such as myself, since realising it's time to swap has given me two wins recently.

Lastly, have you considered making a video about the light ammo weapons of the season? I strongly believe both the Thunder Burst SMG and the Ranger Pistol are very strong alternatives to the Striker AR (on top of being much easier on the ammo usage). I guess the Lock-On Pistol can be included too, but it's a little too gimmicky for general use.

[CwoodWolfpack]

Videos like this is exactly why I support you in the item shop. Other Fortnite creators are good, but you're completely unselfish about teaching us how to excel at this game. Thank you!

[MoonieTheGrey]

Any video exolaing about fighting in a tight space like houses. Or how to counter attack when low health and the enemy pushed

[patty]

1:04 agree 100%. This is why the ranked system is just broken; it relies on too many games for a persons, rank to settle. I can watch a person play for 30 seconds and know if their general movement/combat is good.

This lack of sitting still is the best thing for newbies to learn. I’m playing with a new guy now and he is CONSTANTLY getting sniped because he cannot move while aiming, etc

[KermitKlips]

I wondered how you always have so much stamina and move so quick. You just took my game from 1 win every few days to 6 wins outtta 10 games!
