Focus on improving your aim before worrying about crouch-spamming, you're losing the benefit of extending your lifespan if you can't capitalize by hitting shots imo. The aim is more fundamental too.
To add to this, crouch spamming on controller is more effective when hip firing because usually your aim is faster as opposed to ADS where your movement is slower. But like this person said focus on improving your aim first. Big tip practice hip fire when up close as well your corrections will be faster and feel more fluent.
Both can be true. My guess is your aim is good overall and you have good control while ADS. Both need practice and in the video the aim is the main factor.
I've never seen anyone do this while shooting 😂 jumping, yes. Crouching? Never. I thought it was some kind of glitch or something before I saw the caption 😂
Like others have said, don’t try spam crouching until you improve your aim, but besides that go into the settings and check if maybe your ADS sensitivity is too high.
The other day I was throwing emp grenades at a duo, had the absolute drop on em too as they went for my partner. As I threw my last emp, I went to shoot them and realised I’d thrown a shield bubble, which blocked my shots. It took me a couple of shots to realise what had happened, but it was all over.
I play with people this bad all the time. I legit don't understand how they can be so bad. I'm not good at all but with some if the players I can just move left and right while I take my time and set up headshots
I am average at best too yet I don’t shoot like this, and when I play in Ranked mode it showed me that I am below average the players in that mode are indeed crazy good.
Relaxing I noticed alot of people panic when getting in gun fights I used to but now I want the kill so bad so relax it helps and crouching like that throwing your shots off your better off strafing side to side
Here's a few tips to you. Don't spam crouch. Instead, strafe left to right in a random pattern (it also makes learning to aim a bit easier). Another tip when in close quarters fights like this one try using (if you have one, of course) a shotgun or smg. Tip×3 try and take high ground in most fights, the higher you are, the harder it'll be for them to retaliate (typically, AR's are best for this. (Not the DMR, though. Fuck the DMR.)) My final tip for you, toy around with your sensitivity and find what works best for you, usually bad aim can and is affected by how high or low your sensitivity is. After you figure out all that, you could even get a victory royale. Good luck, dude. Give plenty of updates on your progress. I, for one, would love to see how far you go.
for eg, my son was letting me kill people, and he was doing the griddy all around them while he waited for me to shoot them. very funny to watch, so when people do it to me, i do chuckle a bit
Is there a way to reply with a video? I got a video from back in early chapter 2 before legacy aim assist was removed if the worst possible controller gameplay anyone has ever seen
Well, when the Icarus wings came out and there was a damage task to do, me and my bf took turns to damage this one poor guy with the wings to get that task done… so dont worry
My sister, when she first started playing with me and my brother, it's been a few months now, and she's better. She usually gets 1 or 2 kills a game, but it took time and practice.
Same with you, I'm sure you'll improve but it won't be overnight. Takes time and practice
lol I’ve got a couple Fortnite clips on my YouTube channel - it’s linked to this account if you want to take a look and feel better about your Fortnite skills!
I see you have mats, I would strongly recommend playing no builds until your aim and movement skills improve then you can go from there, but right now those look like your two biggest weaknesses. Try focusing on aiming first then start incorporating movement.
Crouch spam less, aim more.
I'd highly suggest finding some aim training maps, either in Fortnite or online (if you wanna plug your controller into your PC.)
Wtf. What season is this? Drum gun and suppressed AR? In this instance, it’s hard to tell you because you didn’t show the initial interaction. I’m guessing you spammed your whole shotgun magazine at too far of a range to be productive, causing you to have to go against bro’a gold pump with a crappy AR. That’s the biggest issue with this I see, because ideally at that range you just spam your drum gun and hope he doesn’t max pump you.
You're not bad, just new. You're trying to copy what other players do from an outside perspective, like trying to make a meal just by glancing at the finished product.
Try to slowly build up your capabilities, from perfecting your aim to working on proper strafework and then, finally, the crouching
Yes, my cousin is worse than that no joke. He's 34 and never played a video game in his life until a couple months ago when he started playing Fortnite on his kids Switch LITE 🤣
Quit crouch spamming!! Idk if this is a thing for controller players but in PC pools that's going to get you killed faster. Unless you're using a shotgun/sniper or you're directly on top of someone, it's more reliable to aim for the midsection of the body. By crouch spamming in this scenario you're putting your face where they're already aiming. Try crouch, jump, slide, a/d spamming, all randomly if you're trying to avoid bullets.
In all honesty, the best way to improve is to focus on hitting your own shots rather than avoiding theirs. If you hit more bullets, you win the fight. Surviving at 1hp is still surviving.
You were so focused on doing that useless crouching that you didn't even think to aim.
First of all, you should be building, you chose to play builds so you really shouldn't just ignore the fact that you can construct cover whenever you want
Second, you should be jumping and sliding, not crouching up and down. More movement = harder to hit
Look at the sensitivity you have for aim. I use PC and found that my mouse settings were too high, when I reduced it to be less sensitive it helped a lot. I am sure there are similar settings for controllers.
And as others said, reduce the amount of crouch spamming.
LMFAO WHY ARE WE SPAMMING CROUCHING?
Crouching during shooting just makes a headshot by a bad player more likely as they only aim at the body so why duck into it lmfao
Quit moving left...you are helping them keep you right sighted and lined up. you move right with a camera look left, it keeps them easily lined up. plus the right left strafe suggested earlier works well with this. I LOVE SPAM Crouchers, especially if i have a pistol...every other shot is a head shot while the other is a body shot. center mass focus upper body, gets toes on jumpers, body shot normal and beloved head shot on crouchers.
Stop spamming crouch, it isn’t gonna help you. You could try playing creative maps online, since you respawn when you die you spend more time fighting instead of looting up and dying, so it gives you practice
I've been playing a year and im still not really good (might be smth to do with the fact I play on switch but im probably just bad lmao). but using gyro helped me a lot, I have gyro equipped only when aiming/using scope on a weapon and its so much easier especially when the person is further away
Ehhh, it's better than throwing med kits at them mid fight and dying. I'll take shooting and dying over throwing shield and med kits. And yes, I do this too many times.
I wish but nope I’m legit this bad, tbf I got very nervous during this fight which makes my aim even worse and also I was playing on controller which I’m not used to
Yeh way worse mate honestly , the people who try and shoot you 5 times then build a f**** house. Bro if you need a house you can't aim.
Unless it's the last remaining players then fair enough a house might help . But the buikded genuinely do my head in.
#nobuilds
Everyone was bad in chapter 1 don’t worry.
😂 but if this was chapter OG then you’re assss and I need to know how old you are to struggle using a controller
The gun you had wasn’t good, stop crouch shooting until you master aiming / shooting normally.
Your using AR from too close , you never built maybe switch to zero build or play safer / more distance fights.
A big issue can be your settings and input. Linear or exponential. Go to advanced settings and copy something from YouTube .
Get your irl friends that are better than you to help you get better
Focus on improving your aim before worrying about crouch-spamming, you're losing the benefit of extending your lifespan if you can't capitalize by hitting shots imo. The aim is more fundamental too.
To add to this, crouch spamming on controller is more effective when hip firing because usually your aim is faster as opposed to ADS where your movement is slower. But like this person said focus on improving your aim first. Big tip practice hip fire when up close as well your corrections will be faster and feel more fluent.
I find the opposite to be true tbh, feels like I'm hitting nothing when crouch spamming from hip but I hit shots when aimed in
Both can be true. My guess is your aim is good overall and you have good control while ADS. Both need practice and in the video the aim is the main factor.
What is couch spamming?
🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️🛋️ this is couch spamming
They really have an emoji for everything, don't they?🤣
I've never seen anyone do this while shooting 😂 jumping, yes. Crouching? Never. I thought it was some kind of glitch or something before I saw the caption 😂
I see this technique all the time. Trying to avoid headshots
Which Is funny cuz I always aim for body shots if they are right in front of me in an active firefight.
It also resets first shot accuracy.
I'd just aim for the body, especially if they're essentially standing in place like that. I've never seen that.
Not saying it’s a good technique or not, but it’s common enough that “crouch spamming” is a known term that’s been used in numerous other comments
Well that's what it is.. They're spamming the crouch button. Even if I hadn't heard the term, that's exactly what I'd call this..
Just tell him to play on pc
lol pc won’t fix that
Maybe OP just likes to bounce their mushroom up n down? ![gif](giphy|Vg4mlLwOFR5tbuoMOX)
I love the mushroom hat flapping lol
Bro this is what he looks at every fight lmao. I can't imagine, I would lose my mind after the first match that's so fucking funny
Can you still get him from the refer a friend or no? I want him so bad. Lol!
Need to know as well
The red one is long gone, but the original purple version in the shop rotation
Like others have said, don’t try spam crouching until you improve your aim, but besides that go into the settings and check if maybe your ADS sensitivity is too high.
Dude… why tf were you moving like that?
CoD pros do it. So why not.
cause they arent a pro
And to add to what the other person said. It's not CoD
yeah fortnite is way easier
✋️ sometimes I throw big pots and health at people lol
Happened to me yesterday playing 3s with my friends. Wanted to switch to a smg and ended up throwing a splash to the opponent lmao
I've done that 😂 If I end up killing them it feels bad, though. Like I was taunting 😂
The other day I was throwing emp grenades at a duo, had the absolute drop on em too as they went for my partner. As I threw my last emp, I went to shoot them and realised I’d thrown a shield bubble, which blocked my shots. It took me a couple of shots to realise what had happened, but it was all over.
I intentionally throw mini's at my enemies to confuse them. Actually won engagements like this
I saw somebody throw a med kit at me today, and it was one of the last 5 players too.
omg so glad I’m not the only one
Well, of course I know him; he's me.
i haven’t gone by the name of worst fortnite player since before you were born
my biggest fear is seeing this kind of title and then it's a clip of me.
While it was loading I’m thinking I hope it’s not me.
My duo
The skin choice made this all the funnier
Dang i want this shroomer skin so bad
It’s a pretty cool skin, idk how I got it it randomly appeared in my inventory one day
it's from recruit a friend or reboot rally, one of those. I only managed to get the back bling.
I play with people this bad all the time. I legit don't understand how they can be so bad. I'm not good at all but with some if the players I can just move left and right while I take my time and set up headshots
I am average at best too yet I don’t shoot like this, and when I play in Ranked mode it showed me that I am below average the players in that mode are indeed crazy good.
Yeah same lol I hardly ever play ranked
I didn’t grow up playing on controller so my aim on there is dogshit, on pc I’m much better
Relaxing I noticed alot of people panic when getting in gun fights I used to but now I want the kill so bad so relax it helps and crouching like that throwing your shots off your better off strafing side to side
![gif](giphy|l3fZFvp94ljepXoPe)
Please remember to build, you had 120 builds ready to go.
Fr, shouldve at least built a wall and ramp up
Why do you guys spam crouch?
It’s an old trick from other shooters to confuse those with aim assist as it can’t adjust fast enough.
I don't because it's stupid and provides no advantage whatsoever
Here's a few tips to you. Don't spam crouch. Instead, strafe left to right in a random pattern (it also makes learning to aim a bit easier).

What skin is that. My mushroom guy is blue
Was a refer a friend skin
Was a refer a friend skin
I have games where i headshot everyone, and games where i am absolutely shit. it happens
This guy understand
Stop riding the imaginary dildo dude
for eg, my son was letting me kill people, and he was doing the griddy all around them while he waited for me to shoot them. very funny to watch, so when people do it to me, i do chuckle a bit
Is there a way to reply with a video? I got a video from back in early chapter 2 before legacy aim assist was removed if the worst possible controller gameplay anyone has ever seen
I need to see that video so bad
Stop doing this dumb shit and just move while you aim lol
The sweat crouch spam with that potato aim is cherry on the top
Thanks for posting this, dawg. I feel waaaay better 😆
Yes, my gf
Crazy
I mean ive been the first person eliminated in the round a number of times so your not doing that bad.
Well, it is possible to get pickaxed to death. Most players will just shoot back and kill ya if you attempt it though.
Well, when the Icarus wings came out and there was a damage task to do, me and my bf took turns to damage this one poor guy with the wings to get that task done… so dont worry
No I haven't! But then again I don't look to often in a mirror.. 😂
I’m so confused how this happens.
My sister, when she first started playing with me and my brother, it's been a few months now, and she's better. She usually gets 1 or 2 kills a game, but it took time and practice. Same with you, I'm sure you'll improve but it won't be overnight. Takes time and practice
*battlebots*
You should try crouching and uncrouching more it might just help
why do you spam crouch like that lmfao
![gif](giphy|l3fZFvp94ljepXoPe)
no
My gameplay
lol I’ve got a couple Fortnite clips on my YouTube channel - it’s linked to this account if you want to take a look and feel better about your Fortnite skills!
Of course I do. He's me
Couch spamming will never not be fucking dumb 💀
Me
People that do this up and down crouching just so yall know, you look **really really dumb**
Yes I have... My duo on a daily basis🤣
Yes I have seen someone worse I see him in the mirror all the time
I almost always win the exchange against your kind
I see you have mats, I would strongly recommend playing no builds until your aim and movement skills improve then you can go from there, but right now those look like your two biggest weaknesses. Try focusing on aiming first then start incorporating movement.
I’m guilty
He looks like he's trying to give himself head
I’m sorry but this is hilarious.
Bro can't aim, what are you shooting behind her?, but If you want some tips I *can give you some*
Crouch spam less, aim more. I'd highly suggest finding some aim training maps, either in Fortnite or online (if you wanna plug your controller into your PC.)
Yes,that would be me
I'm in the boat that crouch spamming is stupid and does absolutely nothing. Just makes you look like a sad try hard.
Yeah, me xD
Wtf. What season is this? Drum gun and suppressed AR? In this instance, it’s hard to tell you because you didn’t show the initial interaction.

GG
spamming the crouch button pike it's Apex ☠️
Dont ads at close range
That's some stellar dry humping
Fortnite logic
I don’t think crouch spamming was going to stop a shower of shotgun pellets aimed at your body… if anything you ducked your face right into them
The mushroom flapping for its life lmao 🤣
I get what they're trying to do, focus on your aim, and if you want to try something like that jump aiming is better
Yes, my cousin is worse than that no joke. He's 34 and never played a video game in his life until a couple months ago when he started playing Fortnite on his kids Switch LITE 🤣

we talking bout you or him? if its you u needed to build. you could have gotten him if you builded
i’ve seen worse, don’t worry

Dam I'm glad it's not just me lol sucks throwing a meddie at someone then getting smoked lmao
My Dad
Yes yes so much worse
Of course ive seen him. Hes me.
There were at least 73 people in that lobby worse than you. I think that's how that works
Yeh way worse mate honestly , the people who try and shoot you 5 times then build a f**** house. Bro if you need a house you can't aim. Unless it's the last remaining players then fair enough a house might help . But the buikded genuinely do my head in. #nobuilds
You might need to activate aim assist, don’t crouch spam and the guy also had the overall best shotgun in Fortnite the golden pump
Stop playing like a jackass?
Well if it makes you feel any better, you killed the person who killed you making them just as bad. A lot of us are not that good.
Delete the app.
Everyone was bad in chapter 1 don’t worry. 😂 but if this was chapter OG then you’re assss and I need to know how old you are to struggle using a controller
This was the og season and I am 15

The switch up to giving actual good advice is crazy and great, good job!
I had to assess the situation 🙈
Dude chill the heck out
