| 7s | What's Up fortnight fam sundown here and |
| 10s | today we're going to cover some of the |
| 12s | basic terminology you should know when |
| 15s | watching competitive fortnight if you're |
| 17s | familiar with high-level gameplay these |
| 19s | should be commonplace in a nice little |
| 21s | refresher if you're a little newer |
| 22s | buckle in because you're about to learn |
| 24s | out rotations a rotation is the path of |
| 30s | player or team takes to get from their |
| 32s | current location to the next safe zone |
| 35s | rotations cover not only the direction |
| 37s | the players choose the path but also the |
| 40s | method they use to get there a lot of |
| 43s | different forms of utility enable |
| 45s | rotations including vehicles rift agos |
| 48s | building shadow bombs and glider |
| 50s | redeployed a player's ability to rotate |
| 53s | effectively is key because this |
| 55s | determines what type of engagements |
| 57s | they'll be facing and whether or not |
| 59s | they're at an advantage or disadvantage |
| 63s | gatekeeping gatekeeping is when a player |
| 66s | who is secure inside the safe zone puts |
| 69s | pressure on an opponent who is forced to |
| 71s | rotate because of the storm closing in |
| 73s | on them the gatekeeper is able to get |
| 76s | uncontested shots on to the opponent as |
| 78s | they are forced to move due to not |
| 80s | wanting to take damage from the storm |
| 82s | you will see a lot of top players |
| 84s | utilize this in order to create |
| 86s | opportunities to get eliminations and |
| 88s | points high ground advantage high ground |
| 93s | advantage is when you have a height |
| 94s | advantage over your opponent and are |
| 96s | looking down on them having the high |
| 98s | ground enables you to have more access |
| 100s | to information and easier ability to |
| 103s | take and hit shots you will frequently |
| 106s | see players battling for high ground in |
| 108s | all stages of game but in particular |
| 111s | during the late game the ultimate high |
| 113s | ground is generally the player or team |
| 116s | who controls the highest level during |
| 118s | the final circles and they have a number |
| 121s | of advantages they are typically the |
| 123s | least threatened can decide when to drop |
| 126s | down and start taking fights and also |
| 128s | have great angles to punish opponents |
| 130s | with AoE weapons or rifle fire |
| 136s | low ground warrior the next term is the |
| 140s | opposite of the high ground the low |
| 142s | ground Warrior is the player looking to |
| 144s | sweep along the ground floor taking |
| 146s | close quarter combat fights in forcing |
| 149s | opponents to make the first move this |
| 151s | can also be efficient because it often |
| 153s | doesn't require as many materials or as |
| 155s | much of a risk to gain control of but |
| 157s | can also lead to being in a lot more |
| 159s | chaotic of an environment back side of |
| 163s | the storm |
| 164s | speaking of chaotic environments our |
| 167s | next term is possibly the most perfect |
| 169s | embodiment of this the backside of the |
| 171s | storm is when the safe zone is closing |
| 174s | in towards a new one and the players are |
| 175s | clustered in towards one edge generally |
| 178s | it is very high density of competitors |
| 181s | and you will find a lot of interactions |
| 183s | engagements dis engagements and |
| 185s | eliminations occurring at this point |
| 187s | particularly for those low ground |
| 189s | warriors we just talked about one by one |
| 194s | one by ones are the most basic proponent |
| 197s | of building in competitive fortnight |
| 199s | this is when a player boxes themselves |
| 201s | in using their own builds making them |
| 204s | safe from outside fire this technique |
| 206s | can be expanded on to allow for players |
| 208s | to take control of a space around them |
| 210s | but it all starts with the four walls |
| 212s | around you than a floor / ceiling that |
| 214s | each have a pyramid on |
| 218s | tunneling tunneling is the first basic |
| 222s | expansion of the one by ones tunneling |
| 225s | is when players create a tunnel out of |
| 227s | their own builds in order to rotate |
| 229s | safely this is typically done by putting |
| 232s | out floors and ceilings in either a |
| 234s | straight or diagonal path then covering |
| 237s | your sides with walls as you advance |
| 239s | this allows players without utility to |
| 242s | rotate for maximum safety 90s 90s are |
| 249s | when players utilize vertical 90 degree |
| 251s | rotational building in order to build |
| 254s | upwards as fast as possible while also |
| 257s | remade in cover this enables players to |
| 260s | try and gain high ground advantage or |
| 262s | outplay their opponent to get a quick |
| 264s | different angle you'll frequently see |
| 267s | them use in mid game build fights or in |
| 269s | endgame scenarios where players have to |
| 272s | build up very quickly this has been a |
| 274s | quick rundown of the common competitive |
| 277s | terms that are frequently used on |
| 279s | broadcast if there are any other terms |
| 281s | you are unfamiliar with let us know |
| 283s | using the hashtag fortnight World Cup in |
| 285s | asking for an explanation we hope this |
| 288s | helps you level up and we'll see you all |
| 289s | on the battle bus |
