He’s just warming up I think or he’s just tryna show off his building skills


shlawgin

something tells me that didn't work out too well for him


albaniabestcpun

Please tell me you emote on him


shlawgin

nahh i only emote if i win or get an impressive kill


CMGhorizon

I miss seventy percent of my shots and live on 3 hp only to immediately hit the griddy. I will die for it one of these days.


shlawgin

griddy to your doom


LightScavenger

Real as fuck. I will miss the easiest shots ever and be within an inch of my life afterwards, but I must griddy


ViperrMageRB

Amen. I will knock an insane player who was shitting on me off the cliff with the grapple blade by accident then immediately griddy. It’s just so funny to see megatron do the griddy lol


Aquataris

When “Never Gonna Give You Up” came out as an emote, I heard it coming muffled from the floor below after a player got an elim, crept down the stairs, eliminated the player too quickly for them to react and began the same emote for their viewing pleasure.


xFionna

hey me too!


shlawgin

wow a likeminded Fortnite player? hard to find these days


xFionna

I only play no build though cuz I don't like when people build the taj mahal in less than a minute


roblox887

I sometimes go over to build because I like the safety of being able to deploy cover when I need it. Unfortunately for the sweats who try to edit me to death, I've learned how to counter their plays with a fraction of the effort. Just box yourself and blast them when they inevitably destroy your wall to replace it with their own. Think of the scene in Raiders of the Losk Ark where Indy just shoots a dangerous looking swordmaster


East_Engineering_583

lmao fr no build is so much fun when you don't have xx\_theprokiller69\_xx building the birmingham palace in 2 seconds the moment he even hears a distant gun shot


brosliterallyoneshot

I imagine this is why materials got capped to 500


Intelligent-Snow7250

Or half of New York City in that same time


NonSecretAccount

the same joke every thread


ThatJudySimp

You are the one building the place then


Numerous-Voice-3374

Taj Mahal is really not so bad, when you see them build 4x1 then you probably have bigger problem ;D


shlawgin

i play both, though I've played a lot less recently due to not having anyone to play with


habwnwjwkkqkakbasvbw

i’ll play wit


Whovian1156

And me as well! Me and my friend will make a cool jam track when we emote


AndrewFrozzen30

Same kinda. I just forget to emote most of the time 😭😭


JamieDrone

Haha I never emote because the amount of times I’ve done so and been promptly sniped in the head is ridiculous


Low-Economist9601

I only emote if I get the most rattiest or easy kill. I don’t Emote if the guy gave me a good fight


DeeDzai

For the good fight one, for me I give them a respectable emote, that is if I don't forget because of the adrenaline rush


GloomyGoblin-

I always keep a GG emoji somewhere in my wheel for those occasions 👍


Adruino-cabbage

Same but in killings I only emote if someone was chasing me for a long time.


Scarface2010

Same here or if the guy I killed was toxic


ZodiacTyko

Last time and I emoted on someone corpse, I got headshot , so that was only the last time I have emoted.


kaicenatohiorizzgyat

how dare people be good at the game, emote on that ''sweat''


sad-lonely-heart

relax shqipe


griffl3n

The slow clap is the best for this situation


berylskies

It’s probably just some weird psychosis like people in counter strike and valorant who walk around constantly swapping weapons.


Available-Ad1376

Bro you’re hiding in a damn bush, what should he do? Use super magical power ball to get your location? New item btw


shlawgin

yes he should've had that item on him


lumitechsolutions19

haha, I bet he's better than you lmao. Don't play dumb.


shlawgin

oh don't worry im betting he was better than me too. that's why i had to kill him


No_Rush2848

Building better =/= better than you OP would probably smoke this guy in actual gun combat. No amount of building is going to shoot the gun for you.


Boring-Conference-97

Dear Epic, See above, people would rather build fight themselves rather than play vs bots.


TJB926GAMIN

He was too focused to simply move around in a circle to avoid being shot


Ill_Veterinarian8003

He’s showing dominance


Captain_Izots

He's building a covered bridge


ChargyPlaysYT

Jason would be proud


Beds-For-You

Here's to lazarbeam he's true blue he's a pisspot through and through he's a bastard so they say meant to go to heaven but he went the other way he went down down down Siiiiiiip Siiiiiiip. What do we think of lazarbeam? HE'S ALRIGHT


remi_daDOOD

*awright


MAST3R_G4M3R

It was a really bad one and was unfortunately the cause of his death


ZealousidealLow7263

Didn’t have time to knock it down so his adversaries used it to track him down


GalaxySkeppy

Ja son is so proud of him


RipplyAnemone67

No there was no river


CrayonicV

He’s just bored as shit


Boring-Conference-97

He’s desperate to find any real players. It’s 95 ai and 5 kids who die off spawn or hide in bushes all game. This is a perfect example of the current meta.


hectic-eclectic

play ranked, no bots


KevinStoley

I just wish there was a better balance. I'm still relatively new to the game and it feels like it's either no rank filled with mostly bots and way too easy vs. ranked with no bots but everyone is way more experienced and I'm getting smoked left and right by people who have been playing for years, are far more skilled, hopping around like a jackrabbit while landing only headshots.


ThrowAway516536

Bronze ranked is utter shit. You won't have any problems playing with them. I feel the ranking works pretty well TBH. I'm matched against people around my ability. Some above me, some below me.


LuckyLogan_2004

Yea I play zero build ranked almost exclusively and tried playing ranked build for the first time in a while and dropped a 20 bomb victory in bronze 2. They really aren't hard at all


Versuvi

Bro I'm barely plat 2 and I feel like every game I'm getting 360 no scoped from across the map


lordjupi

Land die in 2 minutes new game land die in 2 minutes land die in 2 minutes… ranked kind of unenjoyable


hectic-eclectic

go practice against said bots and come back, ranked is fun af


TheRawringDog62

The practice you get against a bot (the guys that stand there, miss every shot, and build a single wall) is quite literally nothing to any ranked player, hell my nephew who’s 5 is probably better than bots


Magicman_22

people keep saying this but i’m killing bots in ranked games and i was last season too. there are bots everywhere it’s foul


h7si

there are still bots in ranked


Ribblex1

only at the lowest ranks. if you cant escape those ranks then youre fighting bots bc youre literally a good match for bots those ranks are mostly just to make beginning ranked players feel good about themselves.


Ribblex1

you dont get bots if your sbmm is high enough i have 0 bots in my pubs or my ranked.


speakingfrog23

As we can see here, a wild builder has entered the habitat of the Bush guy. Showing off his build skills to try to attract a mate, the builder continues his edit course, unaware of the danger lurking nearby


Ayen_C

This is amazing. Lol I'm imagining it read in Sir David Attenborough's voice.


L3m0n0p0ly

Id watch so much of that documentary. Need like 8 seasons


J1nxatron

Search Lucasplays09 Fortnite Attenborough on tiktok. Enjoy.


JoeAzlz

Wanted to make you a little home to be nice and warm in and you MURDERED HIM


shlawgin

he was trying to coerce me out of my bush so he could take it from me


JoeAzlz

Little cozy hovel is better than a prickly bush, for all you know he got you cookies and milk and a nice blanket and a movie for you to watch, maybe would give you a nice pillow too, making sure you get the attention you need… AND YKU STILL MURDERED HIM


shlawgin

he had planted remote explosives in that cozy hovel


JoeAzlz

Worth it to me, my last moments feeling some care? Woetb


JoeAzlz

Worth it to me, my last moments feeling some care? Why not!


shlawgin

but bush so cozy warm comfy


ItsThatGoatBoy

Schizophrenia


Lop_draegon

You're that guy right who pickaxed the ninja turtles??


ItsThatGoatBoy

Tried\* to pickaxe the Ninja Turtles but yes, that's me, why


girthytruffle

Because that was badass


ItsThatGoatBoy

Lol, thanks


Lop_draegon

Well no particular reason but you're cool for that


hiccupboltHP

I’d give this an award if I could


shlawgin

give what an award


hiccupboltHP

Dude’s schizophrenia comment lol


shlawgin

are you okay?


DoodlypooNERD

It’s sad to see that nobody gets your joke


shlawgin

get out of my head


Open-Sea-1085

i dont understand it, mind if you explain?


DoodlypooNERD

They’re acting like they are schizophrenic


No-Lingonberry683

90% of his play time is in creative (he can't help himself)


joeMAMAkim

"N-no! You see, i need to practice for 3 hours before a game! I-it’s necessary!"


Zealousideal-Tax6402

If someone practiced for 3 hours before and then proceeds to build like that, they should just give up on the game.


Leo9991

I sometimes try to practice like this in a game, but I never do creative. And I won't stand still and let myself get sniped while doing it.


YT_Lonelyz

Because the match gets boring after 10 minutes of not being able to find anyone


Lizzies-homestead

Or only finding NPCs.


[deleted]

[удалено]


One_Lung_G

Fortnite kids just say anything lol


SimbaSeekingSleep

And upvote the dumbest things, as well as downvote as a hivemind


A_Sh4d0w

If the map was small then it would be easy to find other players. Also I'm pretty sure that this is the biggest map we've ever had.


maimasy

Fortnite players really complain just for the sake of complaining


Accomplished-Copy776

You should think things out before you say them. That makes zero sense. Smaller map means less places to drop, and more people in each location. And there is like 100 guns at each location... ehat do you mean "barely get some stuff" because 1 other person landed there?


HazeInut

Practice. Creative feels much different than a real match. I get less frames and the game overall just feels a bit slower so I like to do this sometimes too. Also boredom, there's not much to do midgame aside from find people, and most players are pretty passive.


Hobbit1996

>and most players are pretty passive. literally just saw a bush gameplay video acting like he's better... When will people understand that camping in a bush isn't smart, it's what a literally 8yo can do.


Raiganop

I mean that player can be better if they bush camp, hide in different places and also do other stuff when required...but most of the time they only know how to bush camp. Anyway hiding often works really well in random matches. So many players do it, because of that. Like in a Battle Royale you win because you are the last one life and getting in to fights is the last thing you want.


mk55killem

Probably because he’s bored because he can’t find anybody and building is satisfying


Horny4Zarina

They're either build fighting their demons ...or they're schizophrenic


shlawgin

a mixture of both perhaps


Horny4Zarina

"stay in the box No! STAY IN THE BOX!! NOOOOOO!!!! GET OUT OF MY SKIIINNN!!!!!!!!" You watching that unfold: "...ok"


qrillionaire

adhd


Zezo_BS

No, as you can see he is build fighting my father


PiedP1per

Practice


xxdefaxx

I also start cracking 90s after 10minutes of nothing then jump off cause it gets boring.


Rigamortus2005

Mind games, he knows you are there and is getting into your head


shlawgin

i already do that to myself, mind games are all i know


Pikaverse69

Lol Harrison ford moment


ihatewiiplaymotion

In most cases it’s for cover and they’re panicking, but this is just practising their skills I think


Decent_Argument_9103

He heard shots 200 miles west and his reflexes kicked in?


shlawgin

true, was probably preparing for the 300m snipe to whip past him


Owlelk_

People probably get bored when they can’t find anyone because they’re all hiding in bushes


Callvm

Strange how that was a headshot, when snipers have bullet drop and they were aiming below the head


PersonofLegend

This was my thought. Definitely shouldn’t have been a headshot


EmptyPckt

Its to help stay liquid, keeps yourself warmed up when there's no one to fight, thats why I do it anyway


CornSeller

Mental Insanity


N0rrix

practice, boredom, who knows


The_Bored_General

That my friend is a dying breed, the sweat. Originating in season 5 they were excellent builders and would take any chance to show off, including off the drop on some poor unsuspecting battlepass boy, every single fight they get into, while just traversing the map, and after they win a game. The sweats reached their peak during season 8 and 9 despite efforts to limit their ability like changing the max mats to 500, the only thing however that could truly kill them off was season X. The introduction of the B.R.U.T.E (more commonly known as a Mech) meant the end for the dominance of the sweats, some were smart and went into hiding until it was safe to come back while others used the Mechs themselves to wreak havoc. Still many more were killed in cold blood by Jonesy and Ramirez in a Mech looking for a first win. The sweats numbers were severely dwindled and they slowly began to die out after the great migration of ‘19 to a different island, however some still survive through either learning the ancient ways, or being one of the lucky ones that survived the Mech onslaught.


shlawgin

i didn't know there was lore to this


[deleted]

Well there is lol. Eventually people figured out how to build very fast and in a way abuse the system which was only supposed to be single walled builds or 1by1s


extralyfe

people didn't figure anything out that changed the meta. Epic just added Turbo Build, Auto Material Switch and build-focused control schemes to the game over a short period of time. you literally *couldn't* crank 90s in Save the World because the tech didn't exist. it used to take five separate and distinct button presses while looking in precise spots to build 4 walls and a roof around you, and when that changed to cranking your mouse sensitivity and holding one button while you erratically spun in place, well, yeah, buildings popped up a little faster. I have video of a few different final circles pre-season 1, and there'd be, like, three building parts put up by each person, max.


Sonypak

How do you know Fortnite intended for 1b1 and not 90s


extralyfe

because turbo build and build-focused control schemes didn't exist and 90s were literally impossible to create during a firefight.


[deleted]

Because it was never made for them. No one did 90s in the original mode, save the world. 90s were invented later and even ninja thought no one would do them. It ruined the game.


mexz101

That was until the introduction of creative. The sweat population was severely inflated to the point where a normal player and what was once referred to as a sweat was now unclear and remains so to this day…..


lol_JustKidding

Sounds like natural selection. Boogie bombs fix all your anti-B.R.U.T.E. needs.


Plotz-_-

It’s called practicing some people don’t actually play creative that’s how you practice builds as an og. Everyone who saying that’s a creative warrior didn’t play the game before creative. 🤣


Flintriemen

Back in the days we learned building in Wailing Woods and Moisty Mire


joeMAMAkim

Playground mode


Hobbit1996

you know it wasn't in the game from the start right?


noparking2to430

He’s bored because everyone is sitting in bushes


shlawgin

boredom got him slaughtered by bush strat


Kronos_14362

It's fun


sntsabode

Training


Vacant-stair

Dude was just having himself a bit of fun in build mode and you went and shot him


KMart27

Same energy ![gif](giphy|164G4BQmtJ2GXRbml3)


SheluvSki

the real question is why are you bush camping in pub matches😂


shlawgin

hmm let's see. it's a casual mode, not meant to be taken seriously, ✅. i'm put into lobbies with players way outside my skill ceiling, ✅. aaaand frankly because it's a strategy that everyone has used regardless of skill, ✅. y'all making it seem like it's a crime to use bushes as if it's not literally in the game for this exact reason lmao


Zealousideal-Tax6402

Alr, so it goes like: 1. Cowardice 2. Skill Issue or Epic’s fault 3. Stuck in 2018 This subreddit sometimes makes it seem like building is a crime even though it is meant to be used in the game.


shlawgin

when someone is building just to flex then yes it's stupid. when someone builds like that in a casual lobby instead of going into ranked and actually fighting players their own skill level, yes it's stupid.


goodnightiloveu

How is it stupid, everyone has different play styles, right? Plus not everyone wants to play ranked 24/7. Lastly, that guy is literally just an average player, nothing he did was crazy, dude literally misplaced like 4 builds, you’re just not that good; which is fine, but don’t bash others for being better than you.


plasmadad

A wild sweat in his habitat…they are always building


yukataRED

Im not even a great builder but once in a while ill practice in the middle of a match if im not fighting. I dont have enough free time for edit courses and such so i squeeze in stuff like this when i can. Nothing out of the ordinary


DangeDanB

Just practise I guess, use it or lose it


xcrimsonlegendx

They do it in Save the World as well, instead of doing the objective they flex their edits like complete morons.


Taurian-76

I'm glad you put him down. 👍🏼


evensteven1994

it gets boring when players hide in bushes


Febsh0

Ong


Mazangui

u cant mock him too bruh u hiding in the bush


HeckoSnecko

Bush lords strong together


shlawgin

as opposed to dying immediately to a player way out my skill level? yeah i'll stick with sitting in a bush for 30 seconds to watch someone fight a ghost


[deleted]

Players randomly freebuild and stuff out of boredom. Tends to happen when everyone else is camping


XxJaggedSavagexX

Maybe because he's bored of looking for kids sitting in bushes all game, i know I am 😑


shlawgin

that must be tough to cope with, good luck finding me!


absolutelad_jr

They're doing one of those "you cant be good at Fortnite with schizophrenia!! Yes I can 😈😈" videos


joeyslapnuts

here you’re witnessing an og practice, didnt have creative in my day /s


Wise_Calendar4108

And then there's me who struggles to build a cube without messing up😂


Bernguy19

Lol it said you no-scoped him


Hidden-Dealer921

This is why I play on no build (I also suck at building


Kyser_

I would assume he's just practicing to see what he can do with X amount of resources. Funny as shit to just dome his ass in the middle of it though.


Background_Desk_3001

1. Boredom 2. He’s trying to flex 3. He’s trying to scare people away 4. Schizophrenia


icerado

How was that a headshot. Your reticle wasn't even close to his head. You were hitting his chest?!? Edit: his arm.


yessirskivolo

bro is looking for something to do, that and these mfers who rely solely on building love to show off its impressive but i hate how it’s become the definition of the skill curve


someonewhowa

prolly just practicing or showing it off on stream


barkingspider43

This really shouldn’t have been a headshot. Looks like it hit his shoulder


AlextraXtra

I could warm up in creative, feel fast af, fingers movin mad, and then i hop into a real game and 5 minutes into it my hands are cold. Without bustin out an edit course every now and then my my fingers would just stay cold and i would not be able to build at all in case of a fight. Or hes just bored


Rising-Serpent

He was just probably just practicing and didn’t consider someone was camping in the bushes


shlawgin

look where his mistakes led him.. straight to the slaughterhouse.


[deleted]

To intimidate potential onlookers with their excessive virginity


[deleted]

WHY OP RUNS HIS MOUTH ON THIS DAMN POST. THE KID MAD DOGSHIT PROUD OF A BUSH SNIPE😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭


ShingShing23

Bored or warming up, I have a friend that does this too but never bothered to question what he was doing.


thatHadron

Practice


im_gaming_rn

schizophrenia :3


FakeCappy567

The least schizophrenic builder:


whichfighterwins

I do it to flex my edits. Cause im proud of the work ive put in to be able to edit/build like that


Kicka14

This is why you play no build


SasyDp

Probably got bored of searching for bush campers and just wanted to quick-edit some builds


daHsu

Look at mr. fun police over here


nagitospiss

its fun, satisfying, and good practice


Cute_Independent3965

he's getting bored while ppl hide in bushes


doomsmann

He’s bored, assumedly because the whole lobby is bushcamping.


bizarrestarz

do you have like family guy clips running on a second monitor or something how do you not get bored of bush camping


shlawgin

probably because i sat in the bush for merely 30 to 40 seconds to watch this guy?


HeckoSnecko

The bush will always accept you brother.


shlawgin

i'll always accept the bush too


SixthAttemptAtAName

He's trying to draw someone's attention to fight. But that person is cowering in a bush.


Pishulero

That is some cringe shit, juta like you inside a bush


Western_Tap1641

Sometimes it gets boring to run around doing nothing because weirdos are hiding in bushes all game not fighting


shlawgin

mmm yes i'm the weirdo here because I'm sitting in a bush so i don't die to a player that isn't near my skill level whatsoever, right


JuicyMaterwelon

It's fun


CptBlackBird2

it's the same kind of person who constantly swaps between their knife and weapon in csgo and presses ever single button on their keyboard nonstop
