Best Fortnite Keybinds for Beginners and Pros

In this article, I discuss the importance of keybinding. Keybinding plays an integral role in your success as a PC gamer. Keyboards fulfill a greater purpose than simply filling a blank page. It is the practice of assigning various actions to a specific, unique key on the keyboard or mouse, or to a unique combination of keys. The benefits it offers are substantial. It saves time and effort. Quicker, faster actions per minute and higher response times will become your new norms.

Why are keybinds important?

Fortnite: Battle Royale a unique mixture of survival, shooter and builder. There are quite a few controls to master. Fortifying your position with an impromptu defensive structure to shield you from enemy fire is strange. What’s even stranger is also entering into a long distance shootout with rifles while you’re still stuck on the first engagement. You’re trying to balance offensive and defensive actions in a short period of time. Such a herculean task requires a special set of skills. And since most of your competitors have likely adopted the skill-set already, you’re at a significant disadvantage if you neglect to learn it.

When you’re versed in the art of keybinding, and then master it, you become a superhuman gamer. Additional appendages or fingers will not be needed to perform multiple actions. Doing it correctly, and then steadily building up your muscle memory, will elevate your gaming experience to the next level.

What are the best keybinds?

For players who have never made use of Fortnite keybinds before, I recommend keybinding only one or two actions to start with and then adding more only after those keybinds have been mastered. I also recommend that these one or two actions be the most commonly used, in order to force the player to make use of the new keybinds.

Mrsavage settings are much simpler and adaptive: the most important and most used actions should be bound as close to your natural hand position on the keyboard as possible, without modifiers or special combinations. They need to be close to hand and easy to use.

To modify your keybinds, launch Fortnite and then swing over to ‘Input’ settings from the Main Menu. This page is going to demand careful attention. First, let’s briefly cover things that you will not need to change. Leave your movement inputs alone.

W or Up – Move Forward | A or Left – Move Left |S or Down – Move Backward | Down D or Right– Move Right | |Jump – Spacebar | Sprint – Left Shift

Also, I recommend you leave your Fire, Target and Reload inputs unchanged.

Fire – Left Mouse Button | Target – Right Mouse Button | Reload – R

Now, once we scroll down to E this is where the magic happens and your real training begins. E – Use
