Can anyone explain "highground" to me? Like for what reason is it good to be higher than your opponent. Is my IQ like below 20 or why dont I understand it?

You have an advantage because it's easier to shoot downwards and shit that doesn't apply only for n1 btw.

Anakin,i have the High ground!

i dont think its easier to shot downwards. From above, the hitbox is smaller and from the side its wayyy bigger

(+2)

Yup, that's how angles work.

doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out

Think about any battle in history where someone had height, also if u play fortnite u know that u want to box up mid game on height like a mountain or hill

But WHY did they have an advantage with highground?

I dont play Fortnite

"High ground is easier to defend as it provides an advantage in both defense and offense. From a defensive standpoint: you're able to see your enemy approach from distance, you can perform overhead attacks easier with with help of gravity" 

"Fighting from an elevated position is said to be easier for a number of tactical reasons. Holding the high ground offers an elevated vantage point with a wide field of view, enabling surveillance of the surrounding landscape, in contrast to valleys which offer a limited field of view."

"Being up on the high ground gives you more choice of when you drop to engage an enemy, giving you control over the fight, and a natural advantage. Another way high ground gives you a better angle to fight."

so you mean to do this:

like where he jumped down

(1 edit)

yes kinda, he was doing a trickshot tho so he wasn't really using height to his advantage that much

If he stayed on roof, shot until flag got close to their base, then jumped, 180 pooster, and shot on his way down . 

W guy

It's good to be higher cos it's harder for enemies to hit u..I think

But it's also harder for me to hit the enemy...

true.....I guess it's just something else everyone's got to work on to be better at n1...

how do u have 50k posts?

I've been on this platform for a few years, I used to be active everyday for like multiple hours straight lol
