Strategy

Strategy[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • The Submachine Gun is ideal paired with a Shotgun, due to their close range abilities, if you do not kill the enemy with the Shotgun, switch to the Submachine Gun to finish them off.
  • The Submachine Gun can be very good at destroying builds, as it has a high DPS, good magazine size and does not lose Structure Damage at range.

Counters[]

  • Keeping distance between you and an opponent using a Submachine Gun can be beneficial, as even when ADS, the Submachine Gun has somewhat poor accuracy.
