depends if its a mechanically heavy game
fortnite should keep your aim and flicks in check

i could be wrong but playing on the same sens sounds suboptimal. cuz i feel like fortnite requires constant 180 degree rotations and quick camera movements for like editing and stuff. but val is the opposite

back when i played apex i needed my sens to be wayy higher than my val sens or else i would get fatigued moving that shit around constantly

The opposite for me I play better after not playing but it does make it harder for me to rank up since im not playing enough to rank up

i meant more my acs/hs% are the highest they've ever been rn which is nice i guess but its just so damn hard to rank up as a soloq sentinel main

yeah its rough got me contemplating role swaps all the time. just so hard to influence the game on senti where im just getting my site dodged every round on defense. i gotta be the only senti player alive wishing i could play attack for both halfs in the game lmfao

dont worry about if it makes worse or not just have fun and do what makes you happy

Riot knows when you play Fortnite, they don't want to lose a player, so I think it might be opposite, you will get good teammates / smurf on your team and you also hit shots magically since opponents are easier, that is until you play a critical amount of ranked games, after which you aren't special anymore.

If you play a lot though, then riot balances it out and sends you to the sewers and trenches of ranked.

I think it's fine as long as you're just playing an FPS. Don't worry too much
