First win is average? Not sure what you mean by that but solo is the hardest to win. Just keep at it.

he's asking "on average, how many solo games did it take yall until your first win?"

im not sure lol. i got probably 6 or 7 2nds before i got my first solo win.



to give you an idea, jcole, my lifetime percentages are:

Solo: 25% Top 10 vs 2.7% Win
Duo: 17% Top 5 vs 4.2% Win
Squad: 20% Top 3 vs 7.3% Win


For Season 4 (still early, obv):

Solo: 24% Top 10 vs 8% Win
Duo: 21% Top 5 vs 7.1% Win
Squad: 26% Top 3 vs 8.6% Win


Basically, as you play more, you will convert a higher number of the Top X appearances into Wins. Dont be upset, it's just about getting comfortable in the pressure cooker situations and knowing what to do, when.

i used to have my heart beat at 200bpm when I saw 10 left, now it doesn't start beating until top 3 or 4. I have a buddy going through what you're going through right now - he keeps getting Top 5s and 10s and hasnt gotten a solo W yet. Just keep working at it and you'll get one, then it will be a lot less stressful later.

if you're on either console (doubt it, im assuming you're PC), id be glad to help



ETA: I have more solo/duo wins than the game shows (with screenshot proof), but there was a period around the halloween update where no stats updated. my win % could be higher, but there's a chance that the games weren't even logged in games played, so there's no way of knowing the impact on percentage.

I've probably logged 800+ solo games and haven't wont yet

Oh I feel much better then

You still on PC right? If so, make sure you have your building keys rebound to something more comfortable.

No idea why fortnite decided the function keys were a good default

Just looked those up. Holy shite those are janky

There's no way I can switch weapons off of my 1-5 keys. It's been ingrained in my brain that way from all other shooters.

I have Walls as a mouse button, stairs and flat surface as my Q and E (I don't remember which is which), pick axe as X, and then my meds are other keys

I may try to play this game some more this week, depending on how burnt I get with PUBG.

He is freaking fantastic.

If anybody wants to see how to play on console, watch nickmercs. He is not a good builder but he is very smart and hits his shots.

That’s a shame. They’d make a loooooot of money off me if there was a Thanos skin

That's kinda important in any shooting game

Well no shite

I'm just saying it's hard to do on console to get that type of aim. Regardless of how you feel about aim assist, it can really mess with close and tracking shots.

SphyerPK has tutorial for using an xbox controller - on pc- and owns people. I'm pretty sure he isnt actually human.

I dunno but I can't stand that delay.

I’ve been getting kills with the pump shotty. I don’t think it’s as lethal as before (all you had to do is point in a general direction) and it requires a bit more skill. I’m pretty good at out maneuvering others when it becomes a shotgun firefight. I was trash before cuz I’d get the jump on a guy bit hos reflexes were better.

Imo this season is much more balanced between the shotguns and smgs. I have a small sample size though
