- I Used Optimal Binds in Fortnite For 1 MONTH
Many tips and tricks Fortnite RUclipsrs have covered optimal binds for controller, claw and keyboard and mouse, for both PC and console. Since I never have, I decided to see how much I'd improve using them. Made me feel like an absolute beginner. Martoz and AussieAntics have odd binds that use a thumbstick to move.

I put the binds at the end of the video, however I DON'T recommend you copy them. There's a tonne of optimising I still need to do for non build / edit buttons.
In January I turned my sense up to maximum for controller (steam deck) and now m&k sense is higher it may be time to switch from joystick to joystick mouse
My arm hurt something wild when I turned up the gas and I have likely an injury but "superluminal box up" is definitely something worth struggling for
When you have the best optimal binds can you say it in a video because I have really bad optimal binds I would love it
Yooooooooo Reisshub!!!, I've been using this from season 6 an I've always been wondering that are ppl really that ____ not to thnik out of the box, finally someone does! Job Well Done!
using right click select edit will cause issue of stuck in aim down sight once confirm edit and swap to gun
4:12 This excat bug happens if you have your aim in and shoot buttons are swapped. I have been dealing with this bug for 4 years lmao
For the people interested in switching binds, I can really recommend using side mouse buttons for builds, one build with pinky and then one with thumb (floor in my case) and then also edit with thumb. No thumb overload and full movement while building and editing. You can even have pickaxe and all weapons distributed on pinky/thumb/mouse (mouse being pickaxe on scroll wheel click in my case) so you really get optimal binds for the most important stuff without overloading.
For some reason one of my side mouse buttons work any other binds I could use
@@rubbIeo Are you in a position where you can buy a new mouse? Honestly just go for that, side mouse buttons are too nice for Fortnite. If push came to shove you could try mouse wheel press, if memory serves right Vadeal does that for a build, not sure though and I feel for a build bind it's rather awkward.
@@ZIMAFICATION yea I could get a mouse but like one of my mouse buttons work so for like when im holding the build button for the working side button it build and for the other it dont 🙏
@@rubbIeo Yeah just get a new mouse (or refund the old one if possible still). Really can recommend the g pro x superlight wireless, bit expensive though, otherwise hyper x pulsefire haste was nice too (also available wireless)
@@ZIMAFICATION yea
As someone who switched to optimal binds about three weeks ago (much like his, but almost exactly as Sly Jack’s video recommends) I can say it was *totally* worth it and the best thing I’ve ever done for my game. *Always* being able to hit *every* movement bind (including crouch and jump and mostly sprint) feels amazing, and allows me to fight in a much faster, more agile way.
I would seriously recommend it to anyone who feels limited by their binds or just wants to break their current skill ceiling. Keep in mind, I had been using the same binds (really rather optimal already) for like 5 years before I switched.
and by the way, I think Sly Jack’s ch 4 keybind video is spot on - I have *zero* complaints with the binds, and these may be virtually the only binds someone can say that with.
I switched to these too, tho I have one complaint. The problem with putting left and right strafe on one finger is that it's much harder to right-hand peek in my experience. Iv'e only been playing with these binds for about a week tho but do you also have this issue?
@@crobbe9190keep going bro its just ur muscle memory and youll get used to it in the near future
@@crobbe9190im in the same stage as u rn. Just practice in creative on a bot and practice right hand edits constantly. Ull get the rhythm
The wasq is genius, i didnt even think about changing that. I however just put edit on right click and aim on Alt (you dont need to jump and aim at the same time). Using one hand for editing is also easier for coordination. This is another way to optimize your binds if you dont want to change wasd
You still can't move in one direction when switching weapon slots/pickaxe, but it was extremely easy to get used to for me. After ~3 days (maybe 4 h each) I was already better than on my previous binds.
@@rickplayz2193 how many points u on
@@IbrahimAli-bd4fc I don't play anymore. I was usually around top 5k in the EU tourneys and champions divion obviously.
@@rickplayz2193 You can literally just bind edit to ALT and the problem with editing dissapears lol.
OR u can use a mous button to edit
😆
Yo wassup

I have been using WASQ for 2-3 years now. It is really amazing to have the index finger free. I think I found this movement from an overwatch video at that time. However, the drawback effect is that I am not able to play WASD anymore, so I have to change the movement in all other video games now.
I'm using both.
same i used to play with my ring finger on w
How did you learn the wasq movement, I’m really struggling atm to learn movement
@@BioBozo just play with it alot, move around alot in genreal
I’m on Nintendo😤😩
My PC has been in the shop for months now and I'm getting it back next week. I think returning to Fortnite with at least the Q bind to right will improve my movement tremendously. Thank you Reiss!
3:20 i changed my 'place build' bind to right-mouse click. It took like 3 days to get fully used to it. but I can say that it definitely improved my editing speed (i use edit on release on), cuz u dont need to place,start edit and select tile al with left click.
do u think it made you more consistent or about the same?
@@jamosefica yea i think so
@@vunshywhen i first switched to kbm some comment told me this and a tried it and it’s the only thing i’ve ever known . nobody seems to do this or even know about this but i feel like it’s a cheat and really helpful
wouldnt be better to do the oppositr, placing with left and editing with right
Having your hand rest on the right side of the keyboard also essentially gives you more desk space for the mouse since more of the kayboard is on the 'outside' of your setup.
Bro what is that dirty apex pro 😂
actually really disgusting
@@Shyzufn he could’ve at least tried cleaning that fuzzy ass thing before the vid lol
And the mouse
I physically recoiled and instantly tried to find a comment like this. WTF
😅
Actually Sly Jack moved his had to righter so the left finger can press more buttons. Been using those binds for a while, very practical
Did you improve?
The most important thing to remember is that optimality is subjective. What's the optimal control scheme for one player may be awful for another player
If you have a strong little finger, you can also just edit Caps Lock, where the little finger sits naturally
Always releasing bangers
I find my binds pretty optimal, I use WASD to move, caps lock for cone, c for floor, and then my mouse buttons for ramp and wall. I only have a movement restriction on the floor, which is the least used build
i got the same binds i just copied them from polarized
@@sasa.4317pxlarized uses shift as floor and v for cone
I use QERcapslock for all builds, shift for sprint and edit button on side of mouse, X for pickup.
Drastic change in my speed. Find what works for you and tweak it over time if you need, is what i found.
I used right mouse button to Edit on release and it was super good for my Mecs, and used a foot pedal to ads and switch material, however i felt that my aim was affected because you lose grip stability and other things, so i went back. Anyways foot pedals can help with some keybinds, like sprinting. I can sprint and cancel very easily for example. You can Also use for inventory slots like healings or someothers where the delay doesnt matter
@XyphonYt is not build. Is edit. Hás reiss explain on video
What does ads stand for?
i personally still prefer wasd as it helps me keep muscle memory throughout games like csgo where to counterstrafe you need to be able to press a and d separately, also because im too lazy and comfortable with my binds
wdym by separately, with wasq you can do that
Awesome video, my friend! Good luck on your journey and I’m looking forward to the next video.
I use WASD, F for ramp, V for wall, X for floor, Q for cone. I use mousebutton 5 to edit, mouse button 4 to tack sprint
wtf spaghetti fingers.
I took inspiration from this video and found it interesting so went ahead and basically made my movement keys WASQ and 1 year later only just made the choice to used d for edit as well as moving a build piece for my thumb to use so index isnt using edit as well as floor and wow is it easier. You are the goat
the thing that most dont put into account in terms of setting their binds is what comes natural and unnatural for you to do during building / editing and different retakes and popular widely used build moves... and hence how likely you are to use them during a fight / just playing in general... you want everything to be as comfortable to be done and satisfying and fast... not necessarely having as few actions per finger...
thanks for the ideas! i use shoot as my F key so by using WASQ I can now make my shoot D and also be able to strafe right then shoot much faster! thanks so much!
why dont you shoot on mouse? lol
Here’s something I use for editing and placing building.
I place builds with right click, instead of the usual left click.
I edit tiles with left click.
So the whole time, I’m using holding down my right click to build.
i know everyone hates the martoz joystick but i switched 3 months ago and I like to think im pretty good (my channel has some of my stuff even tho promo lol) if you have the time its actually a really incredible switch and works really well and took me ~2 weeks to get to where i was before and now im 300% better now however as a slyjack viewer his binds do make since and could be worth the switch as well but if you have the time definitely switch to the joystick its so worth it
4:09 , I switch to right click for select edit years ago but then only played for a month before taking a break for a couple years. I have only noticed recently the ads problem it gives and its so annoying.
that putting the select building edit on rightclick optimisation was MASSIVE for me. i switched to it and within a minute i was already edit coursing faster
ive been using binds like these for a bit and its actually a lot easier to learn the movement bindes if you just play a bunch of deathruns
Try switching around the right n left click. I haven't had a problem with that. Been using it since chapter 2 s 2. Def worth it!
why tho? make sno sense.
@@mepik15 after editing you immediately build no delay at all, you can even hold right click whilst editing(if u change ur edit reset bind) and you ll notice the difference
Reiss. You a goat bro. Fkin awesome videos every week. Best in FN scene BY FAR. And Reiss explains will have 1m subs by the end of the year. Content is so well produced.
Thing is is that i use was and left shift(for moving to the right) and i would think that that is significantly easier to use than wasq as you still have the same advantages, but again people are different so what ever works for u then use that
So the 12 day is the best day to feel yourself. Got it 😮
4:05 its fine if u dont believe me but there's no bug it's just very difficult to get the timing consistent to where u dont do it anymore
@@matthiasmcauley4819 no, i play arena on 60
@@matthiasmcauley4819 and not saying it to be a ahole just to inspire those who made a good choice to switch to rightclick builds but might be discouraged when they get ADS because it is annoying it took me over a year to not do it anymore
Also, the true optimal solution is to use B as right movement. It frees up E,R,T,D,F, and C to be used as you please.
keep goin' reiss!❤
that keyboard oh my god
Can you do a video on controller. I want to know what exactly binds are the most maximal effecient to a 4 paddle controller no claw
Like do you have switch mode on l3 or one of the paddels or should you use edit on l3 and which button do you sprint on etc. Like is there a Way to not take thumb off joystick a whole game except for marker and map? A good old Reishub analytic on this would be so fucking awsome😃💯💯💯
I edit with shift using my pinky, I use side buttons for ramp and wall and used to have Q for cone and E for floor. Back then my middle mouse click wasn't working but when i got a new mouse I switched cone to V (my old use/pickup bind) to mouse click. I use scroll down for pickaxe and scroll up for reset. I sprint with caps lock so i find it really smooth to sprint while building because i just move my pinky slightly to edit.
I personally use edit on release on but that's just cuz I'm used to it and don't have the time to get REused to something different (i get about 2 hours daily MAX, normally like 30mins perday)
Keep on the grind man love the content! I will definitely be trying out some of these binds
Been using these keybinds for 1 day and I really like them but the only set back is spaming crouch while strafing
Yea it’s good for editing and building but the movement is terrible when it comes to fighting
@@Khalid-yn2zm update been using them for 3 months now and I'm not looking back. Perfect for editing and building and that's what matters most the time :)
this is a good insight on what to use and what not to use
My “optimal” binds to inspire ideas:
movement - TFGY
jump - rAlt elevated with adhesive foam (wrist)
edit - k (thumb)
ramp wall - side mouse
floor - x (pinky)
cone - right click
ads/switch mat - j (thumb)
reload - l (thumb)
sprint - m (thumb)
shotgun - scroll wheel up
other slots - 67UH (index)
axe - r (ring)
Feedback to further optimize is appreciated
change to TFGR because R is being used by axe, which is a waste, wasq>optimal axe bind, and can put less stress on the thumb 1 as resting bottom of thumb on r-alt makes hitting all binds difficult as thumb is curled (im 6'3 with massive hands so idk if it changes for you, but its how it works for me
because of above, thumb can now easily hit i, u, j, k, but this overlaps with the index finger so we slide all movement down one, TGFR-> RFDE
change pinky location from x->z because of the TGFR-RFDE change, but now pinky cannot move downwards because of the windows key being unbindable, now we move the pinky from z->s. now the pinky can move down, and to the sides
make reset to scroll down- finger retracts quicker than it expands
state keyboard tilt, for optimal and comfortabily i use it at a 90 degree
change jump from r-alt to s, and crouch from whatever it was to z. bc one cannot crouch and jump at the same time
because of the above change, r-alt is unbound, switch it to floor as that was what x was
change axe to mouse wheel down as it doesnt restrict movement and is still optimal
change other weapon slots to TY67 for index finger
thats all, so now your fingers sit on
pinky- S
ring- D
middle- R
index- hovers around TY67
thumb- knuckle on r-alt and tip on I
nah.. liar. or spaghetti fingers.
Reiss would you recommend to switch from controller to kbm ?
If you're going to put in a lot of work then yes I believe it's better in the long run. I do however think the average person will be better on Controller though, so depends where your skill is at. Getting consistent with aim is the hardest part undoubtedly.
@@Reisshub Thank u
ive been playing on the same basically default binds for years now but now i actually want to try to get good so ill try out some of the things you mentioned
what i have for my builds is Q floor G cone and side mouse for ramp and wall, however where my movement comes into play is that i use my ring finger on W and there for when i want to slide left i have to put my ring finger all the way down diagonally onto my W and A at the same time. very awkward but ive learned how to deal with it and make the best of it
Bro finally u doing a vid about Overall better keybind/settings❤❤❤
Thank you man now I have have perfected my binds
Finally someone who understands my weard binds
Doesn’t Noahreyli do that select edit thing too? I think it’s also supposed to be helpful for fighting while trying to hold a wall.
He has earned off so it happens automatically
W vid helps me keep up with the meta
that video is crazy ! approved
Did this about 6 months ago and did find it was worth it in the long run I just swap between a different keyboard setting that i rebound and its been decent
id like to say that right mouse tile select never used to give that aim glitch up until somewhat recently in which after so long i switched back to left click
I tried the right click for selecting edits in chapter two but was so put off by ads bug but if they somehow fix it I would 100 percent go back
I use an Azeron Cyborg and absolutely love it. I still suck at fortnite but ever since being on pc and the azeron I decided for the same reasons you explained to make select tiles right mouse click and also reload. I also didn’t like having ADS on my mouse. Just wasn’t a fan of it. I have ads as an azeron button and I don’t have the issue of being stuck in ADS after editing 😃. My binds are fantastic, the only problem is that I’m still dookie at fortnite🙃
an alternative to the hold left click for faster builds is to just use it on right click. There’s no change in settings and if u don’t wanna use it then it won’t matter and it’s always there when u need
swapping to right click place build, is so much faster. i can hold it while editing and just focus on editing with my left click.
@@okctrl exactly
Damn i just want to switch my movement keys to be on wasq and I know it will be a massive pain, but you switched every bind, and all at once
this is the video i needed
I had this same problem around 3 months ago and looked for a solution. I came around to both that you mentioned, but I realized wasq wasn’t going to allow me to play other games, so I tried the martoz joystick. I loved it, although it was very difficult at first. I’d say I have improved and fixed the issues I once had. I do have one problem however. My turbo build has just stopped working. I don’t know why maybe it didn’t register properly with the game or whatever, but if I’m being sprayed, I cannot just hold left click to defend my self, and this makes life more difficult in a variety of ways. If anyone has a solution to this problem lmk, but overall great video and I highly recommend switching to this if you have the same problem
"but I realized wasq wasn’t going to allow me to play other games"
I switch between other games with no problem and I don't use WASQ in those games. It's pretty natural, you won't be giving up anything on other games by switching on fortnite.
It might be because when you move the joystick the game inputs it as a controller, you can try turning lock input method as mouse on. If you tried that and it still doesn’t let you turbo build then idk bro
@@Nisowyd ok thank you
@@Nisowyd thank you! sorry for the late reply but it worked! I switched the setting and now i can turbo build again. tysm
2:17 but i do, i use left shift to efit with my thumb so its going under my hand
I have used a lot. including joystick and such. (before it was even possible. (I bound double movement bind keys to the joystick)). but my problem was that I couldn't counter strafe with a joystick. but that was probably my fault as I thought I also had to use the joystick in games like csgo when I could have probably be able to use both jostick in fn and wasd in csgo at the same time.
I currently have bound place building to my wrist rest (not joking)
Bro I literally use default binds except I switch pickaxe out form F to 1 and then I am hitting champions league div 9 arena every season sooooo I don’t think that it is that big of a deal what binds you use as long as you get good finger placement and good control of what you are doing then it’s all good! Taking in the fact that I play on a old laptop on 35-100 fps
CLEAN THAT KEYBOARD OML
You on handicap keybinds > me on psychopath keybinds 😭
Really optimal binds are for. Wall:Mouse button 5 Floor:L-shift. Stair:Mouse button 4. cone:V
i use p l ; @ as my wasd and i have like 6 buttons i can press with my thumb - its the most optimal that im comfy with
Love your content bro but you gotta clean that keyboard
v edit... it doesnt hinder your jumping because you can hit both at the same time or just one and the space bar and v are right next to each other.
also a lot of keyboards come with wasd or f and q special buttons that are angled and taller. i use the q on the v from a corshair keyboard to make the thumb movement a pull. and for reference: q is stair, e is wall, shift is cone and c is floor. regular wasd for movement. if you angle your keyboard a bit you can rotate your hand to hit stair while angle running left foward
My keybinds aren’t really the best but what I did to fix the problem of not being to move right because of f being the edit button is changing the edit button to left shift. It kinda works but it makes other problems along the way
since chapter 2 season 3 I've used uhjk as move binds and to see someone else also use that side of the keyboard surprises me because I get called weird for using uhjk even though it's sorta similar to using esdf for move binds
Move your hand to the middle of the keyboard and use space to Edit, Right Alt to jump, mostly you wont be editing while jumping and Space is hella fast to press 😊
The first clip gave me flashbacks to the 2020/2021 Reiss vids 🥲
im kinda late but if you use C you can keep hitting the space bar with the side of your thuumb and hit C as you edit with the tip of your thumb and you dont have to move your fingers
I use my 2 side mouse buttons for my shotgun and my edit bind. And use my scroll wheel as scroll through my inventory
The only thing I learned from the video is to clean your keyboard 0:19
Dunno if u will read this but for ur inventory on kbm just hold left alt and it will bring up ur inventory for as long as you press the button and disappear after u release it
so just for the first major thing, on pc at least, you can bind 2 keys to one function like editing. i found (if you dont wanna switch of wasd) you can bind it to your normal key and the bind the second one to something like v or b next to space, common for jumping too making it easy for jumping edits as well.
i have now spend about a year switching to kbm from controller but i just do not have the discipline to commit fully to it. sure i do not have the worst mechanics but it is still all very shaky. When season og dropped i tried switching completely but it didnt work out as ranking up was easier and i was in higher ranks quick and after then i never really tried completely switching. now i play box fights on kbm bcs i think that is the best place to make the switch and find suitable keybinds and getting used to them but battle royale is still on controller.
today is the first day i changed my binds, it didn't change much because i still have stairs, walls and roof on a bind that rests the same way my previous ones did, but i'm having a lot of trouble on adjusting to the new movement binds, anyone have any maps or just tips to get used to the movement binds quicker?
as a player with wierd keybinds, i recommend you playing with zqsd if youre on qwerty or wasd if youre on azerty
I think theres some keyboard on ur dust
Thanks for not only showing the good clips and give people false hope man!❤
For me, setting edit bind to left alt is a happy medium for not using wasq
Enjoyable and interesting video… but goddam u need a keyboard hover/ clean ur keyboard
i use Q for edit C for floor V roof and the side mouse bottoms for wall and staircase and WSAD to move
I, unlike u, did switch to the gmk joystick, its been 2 weeks and mechs are great but its the map, inv, croutch etc that im not used to yet. i feel u
i have movement keys on esdf, i thought by myself that that was genius, but later seen a vibin jivan using same, anyways, to build ramp and floor y just use my pinky, due that u cant sprint while building, and i use g for wall and r for edit, i cant walk right with that binds, but due to the fact that there are the closest to movement, makes no sense to change them, cuz is the fastest way to build a wall to protect, also with edit on release, u can just edit fast and then move with f. If u have diagonal movement, your ch wouldn't change direction if u stop pressing right for a second, so for me is the best binds. I also have the build button on mouse 5, with that u get 0 delay between building and editing
i recommend using shift to edit and caps to sprint, trust me
i have been using the same binds since chapter 2 season 1 and gotten very used to it (its basically same as the content creator loeya's binds) and I have never thought of the issue of not being able to edit while going to the right or having issues placing a cone, should I shift to "optimal binds" or stick with the ones I have rn?
use shift for edit and q-e for ramp wall and mouse 4-5 for floor cone and shotgun on G since ui can use ur thumb and pickaxe on scroll up or down
Last year I watched this changed all my binds practiced just to play no build😂
How long have you been on keyboard and mouse and how long did it take to become somewhat ok at it like u would have been in controller coz I’m doing the switch and want to know what it’s like also what are your current binds
Low key I recommend playing a game without so many binds after/before fortnite. I play osu! and I enjoy just playing something knowing I don't have to optimize anything (you still can but I choose not to). It's like a cold glass of water in summer
Ima Xbox SS KBM player I would’ve love using an analog stick but can’t sadly, so I just changed some Binds to be more optimal.
My keybinds 👇🏾
Normal WASD Movement
Wall (MB5) Floor (Shift) Stairs (MB4) Cone (E) Edit (V)
.
Personally, my idea of optimal binds are not only finding easier to press keys but also finding a balance for example, some fingers have too many buttons to press and others don’t
I have pretty weird binds (according to my friends), they are wasd for movement, q for wall, e for ramp, r for floor, caps for cone, Tab for pickaxe ( my reload button is z). Should I change it? I'm pretty comfortable with these binds.
I wanted to keep floor as left alt because my thumb can reach from spacebar to there.
Please help me or give me some tips
Idk if you'll even read this but what are good binds for a controller with 2 paddles
Disgusting keyboard good vid xD
Do you recommend switching to these if you are about to switch from controller to keyboard and mouse?
I use E for edit and C,X,Z,V for builds and i press all of them with my index. Should i swap keybinds?
is edit on release and auto reset after clicking any good, or should i change them back
