If you don’t want to be just an average player, but strive to be a champ, you will have to spend some time practicing some useful gaming techniques and obtaining vital skills. Building and positioning are among those skills. Thus, you have to master them as soon as you can.

Our tips and tricks will help you in this matter.

Always stay in motion—it is the best habit you can acquire in Fortnite!

If the fire is coming your way? Don’t waste a single second before you start building a cover!

Just wait until the opponents come to you or run away.

Building is a vital skill and you have to learn how to do it fast.

Pick a place to land wisely.

It is important to choose a good destination when you drop because the whole early game depends on this decision. A good option is Anarchy Acres. That option is always full of supplies yet quite open, which makes it safer than towns.

High positions always give you many advantages and allow you to kill enemies easier. Thus, don’t miss a chance to get higher.

This is probably the safest construction you can build in the game, so it is another skill to acquire.

Secret Tree

Climbing any tree in this game requires you to build something around it first, but that’s not the case with the secret tree. You can get on its top by simply jumping. It is located in Retail Row. You can use it as a good cover.

Only a few users know about this technique. However, it is super handy on the battlefield. For this go to the “Building Edit” tab while you are creating construction and turn your walls transparent. This will allow you to see through the walls of your cover!

Once you master creating simple constructions, it is the right time to learn some complicated building techniques. One of such is roof base building.

Learn how to create a pyramid on top of your cover.

This is a great tip for extra protection of your building.

Use wooden ramps.

To make your construction stronger and more durable you can support the walls of your cover with rock and metal. However, consider adding wooden ramps inside in order not to waste resources that are more precious.

Don’t build at the beginning of the game.

Since building requires collecting resources, which takes time and effort, try not to waste your resources at the beginning of the game. Instead, use natural covers such as rocks, walls, and so on.

Don’t neglect building ramps.

Even if it seems that your position is already quite advantageous, it is never a bad idea to build a ramp.

With these tips on building covers and taking advantage of your position, you will certainly score a win in this Battle Royale. More tips on this game and the best settings can be found at http://fortnitesettingspro.com
