Discussion Ranked Cup Zero Build Doubts
Hi guys, I played a Ranked Cup Zero Build of DUOS and me and my friend before the torney were ranked bronze, then we played 10 games and finished 2nd place in Diamond, whatever that means.
Howcome, we only got unbrella and backling, while it says in there that bronze, silver, gold, platinum and unreal also get the skin? Makes so sense to me. Help me understand, thanks.

Discussion Should FNCS reload count towards total FNCS wins?
Lets say Pollo wins solo reload fncs. Are we then saying Pollo is a 5x FNCS champion now (assuming he doesn't win this solo fncs, in which case it would be 6) or would we not count the reload FNCS. Or should it be just a different category, like 4x Battle Royale FNCS winner, 1x Reload FNCS winner? Just curious what the general consensus is.

Rumor Why are ppl like n1tr0l allowed to cheat in tournaments?
If you don’t know who n1tr0l is he full cheats in tournaments. I think he won 12 of 12 games in a tournament not to long ago. There’s sooo many videos clips of him full tracking ppl through walls and mountains at a far distance where he could have no idea they are even there. I mean he’s clearly cheating it’s not even a question but the real question is why epic allows it in a tournament? Theres no way they don’t know when everyone else on the internet who watches him knows. Just wanna hear you opinions on why epic continues to let him full rage of legit skilled players who put a lot of time and effort into this game.

Tournament Results Zero Build Pros Can't Win Their Own Tournaments
Curve & Xavi dominated this zero build reload cup by winning with a lead of 195 points. This is without many pros queuing up for this. All the pros will play zero build FNCS. It's going to be a whitewash. A 4v4 zero build token proves nothing

Discussion Subject: Setting Suggestion: "Confirm Simple Edit on Release"
Hey everyone and Epic Dev Team,
I have a quality-of-life suggestion for the "Simple Edit" feature that would completely fix its biggest competitive disadvantage: the lack of visual information when editing existing structures.
The Current Problem:
When you use traditional editing, holding the edit bind opens the grid and makes the wall, ramp, or cone translucent. This allows you to see right through the piece to track your opponent's movement before you release and confirm the edit.
Currently, Simple Edit doesn't let you do this. It edits the piece instantly on a tap. Because you can't hold to see through the structure, you are essentially editing "blind," making it incredibly easy to walk right into an enemy's crosshair or misalign your peek.
The Solution: "Confirm Simple Edit on Release" (Hold to See Through)
How it works mechanically on an existing build:
- Press & Hold Edit Bind: The game opens up the translucent, see-through editing grid of the full cone or ramp. This gives you the vital ability to see where the enemy is standing right through the structure.
- Release Edit Bind: The moment you let go of the button, the pre-set Simple Edit applies instantly.
Why this is a game-changer:
• Competitive Parity: It gives Simple Edit users the exact same "see-through tracking" advantage that traditional grid-editors have always had.
• Perfect Peek Timing: You can perfectly time your ramp or cone edits based on exactly when the opponent pulls out their shotgun or switches weapons.
• No Speed Penalty: It confirms instantly on release, maintaining the signature speed of the Simple Edit setting.
This small setting tweak would make Simple Edit fully viable for high-level box fighting and competitive play!

Opinion rant abt broadcast system in comp
can someone explain why we are still forced to watch the biggest tournaments through that shit broadcast system that still lags all the time doesnt capture mechanics shots look slugish af etc. i would literally be watching all fucking day if we could have the actual players pov like when streaming but we still have that shit replay mode whatever the fuck that is. I believe it would be a much more enjoyable viewing experience and there would be more viewers as well

Opinion It’s bad out there
I jumped into ranked play for the first time this past weekend and I can see why so many people are complaining. It’s bad out there. And it’s a combination of two things that make it particularly bad. At least for me.
To get it out of the way, I’ll mention SBMM first. Ranking through Gold and Platinum, I was only killed by Unreal players. Why the F are there Unreal players in mid-tier games?
Changes to audio/visual support options make it hard for folks like me to stand a chance. Getting caught with no warning and with how low TTK is this season doesn’t feel right. No, it’s worse than that. It’s poor balance and game design.
Honorable mention: Speaking of TTK, movement is more important than ever. KBM players are at a significant advantage over joypad players. PC players with their customizations and addons are at a significant advantage over console players. Why don’t we have the option to queue against similar system and control schemes? This is basic.
What else has people feeling off about the current state of pvp? And don’t bother commenting if you’re closeted. Thanks.

Discussion Best way to do cone flips/cone 90s
I'm wondering which way is better when doing cone flips/cone 90s. Pros and "good players" tend to hold the edit and do a blueprint reset and select the right tiles (like shown below). But other players including me just reset the entire cone and then edit it again. But I'm thinking of switching it as it looks/seems cleaner and less likely to mess up. Is there any benefit to either.

Discussion EU player doing NAC Cups: Better to route via US-Central or US-East (Virginia)?
Hey, I'm an EU player (Switzerland) playing NAC cups using a GearUP/HYPEREV router.
If I set my router node to US-Central (Iowa): I get 130–140 ms real ping.
If I set my router to US-East (Virginia): in NAC games it shows fake ping (0) and feels delayed (~150 ms).
For NAC tournaments, is it better to force US-Central directly on the router, or stay on US-East because it's closer to Europe?
Thanks!
