    Your consistent messaging on getting into fights to gain experience and not getting discouraged is really helpful. Feeling like you're not in control and you're "probably gonna lose this fight" and not being comfortable in close fights is so important. When you are in the zone, it feels like everything is moving more slowly and you can understand how the fight is playing out. You're a good coach, Jake! Also, I just used your creator code to get the free syrup emote. Thanks!

    Thank you! I just started playing a few weeks ago to play Fortnite with my son. I’m use to more stealth style games so when I started pushing in solo matches last week my adrenaline was going crazy. I feel like the tips in this video will be helpful for me bc I don’t want to always be carried. 😅

      Yeah MnK isnt just automatically gonna make you better at aiming or anything. It takes time to develop those skills, but once you get used to it and used to not having aim assist help you then it becomes a breeze for most people.

      @Rhythm.87 Месяц назад +1

      I played controller for the majority of my life and only recently switched to PC gaming about 2 years ago I think? And the biggest tip I have is it to take it slow and simple, it is unbeliavble how much staying calm and making slow movement helps! Slow is smooth and smooth is fast my friend. Building up the muscle memory is gonna be a little annoying at first but making all your movements smoothly with confidence will lead to some REALLLLY crispy aim and amazing beams

    I only started playing in Chapter 5, so I have no knowledge of the shotguns prior. I really liked the frenzy auto because it had 8 shots, and could shoot quickly. I miss it. I would like the Gatekeeper more if it came with 5 shots, and then you get 2-3 more at weapons mod station; 3 shots is a problem, and getting into a bunker isn't always an option.

    I gave you a like on this video as well as a sub, I think your way of explaining things is very straight-forward and to the point. You bring up some very good observations about hip-fire advantages that are in a sense "genius". By that I mean, it seems like when I hear you say "hip fire increases movement and evasiveness" it seems like something I should have been practicing for a while. I will admit I'm not too guilty on aiming down with shotty, although i have a bad habit of doing it with an SMG. I hope you have wonderful games ahead of you, and want to thank you for taking time to make this video.
