This could involve killing multiple players or surviving a fight with bad weapons or limited health. ClutchĬlutch is essentially the opposite of choking, where a player comes out on top against the odds. While “chopping” implies the use of harvesting tools, it still counts as chopping if being intentionally shot out. ChoppingĬhopping is when builds are broken from the bottom to bring the players at the top of them down.

Having better guns, more health and the high ground but still losing the fight would be an example of choking. Choking is used to describe losing a situation that was originally poised in your favour. If your teammate says this, don’t panic unless they sound like they really are. Places of interest can be buffed, too, by having increased chest or vehicle spawns, or being close to other areas or items that provide an advantage. New guns won’t usually be used unless they compare in damage per second to scars or pumps. Guns that need a buff are guns that are unbalanced on the weak side. If something is returned to as broken, then it’s usually particularly overpowered or offers unintentional uses or side effects. If you’re boxed, your only way out is to break a wall which takes more time than an edit. Boxedīeing ‘boxed’ is different from just sitting in a box in the fact that none of the build belong to you so you cannot edit them.

BoxĪ full box is a set of builds, using any material, that involves four walls around a player, with floors below and above them, topped off with a cone for another layer of protection. “Bot” is still more often used to describe bad players than to refer to AI players, which are identifiable by their unusual movement and playing style.

While there are AI players in Fortnite, the term “bot” was adopted for unskilled players before AIs were even a thing. Blanksīlanks are when you see your bullet hit your enemy but no damage is registered due to a server issue. Two of these can be used to top your shield up to 100. This person is chucking you a large shield potion, which will give you 50 shield after 5 seconds of use. “Bandies” is simply the slang term for bandages, which drop in stacks of 5 and can be used to heal 15hp every 5 seconds up to 75hp max. While AR usually refers to a common, uncommon or rare standard assault rifle, it could also mean a burst assault rifle or SCAR. ARĪn AR, as you’d expect, is an assault rifle. Players then build out onto another single ramp then repeat.

This can be done three times in succession before jump fatigue sets in. To crank a 90, players run forward up a single ramp, but as they jump, turbo-build two walls and a ramp while turning 90 degrees to the left or right. When first discovered, shortly after the game implemented turbo build, this technique was the pinnacle of skill in relation to the building mechanic of the game. 90sĩ0s are a building method with which you can gain altitude the quickest. Some of the terms may be fairly self-explanatory, especially if you’ve played other shooter games, but we’ll go over absolutely everything anyway just to ensure you’re not left in the dark.
