A 1v1 is when you battle a player one on one. This can be in a normal game, but players will do 1v1s in Playground to practice their skills.
This is a term for a structure that is built by a player that is a one by one square built upwards. Myth, a famous streamer, used to be pretty infamous for building these up and camping them to get wins. The tactic is not used nearly as much anymore, most players are pretty aggressive.
This is a term for a specific technique of building that is considered the fastest way to get high ground on a player. To perform a 90, you place two walls, a floor, and a ramp. Each new section you are turning 90 degrees and doing it again. You would continue to do this until you've gotten above your enemy. I recommend watching a tutorial like the...
ADS stands for Aim Down Sights. You do this when you press and hold right click or left trigger. This zooms in the aim of your weapon and allows for a more accurate shot.
AFK stands for Away From Keyboard. It's pretty common computer slang for needing to leave your computer or game briefly to take care of something in real life.
Fortnite doesn't get a lot of cheaters, but a common cheat for shooter games is the Aimbot. This is a 3rd party program that basically aims for you, and will give you perfect aim on people. It tracks people through walls so you'll know where they are, and can do various other things. Using one of these in the game will get you banned really quick!
If you bait or you baited someone, it means that you tricked someone into doing something that did not end well for them. You "baited" a trap, which is typically a hunting term.
Bloom is what Fortnite uses to determine where shots go once they are fired. Each time you fire a bullet out of a weapon that has bloom, it will land somewhere within your crosshairs. You can lessen bloom by standing completely still or crouching. Guns like the assault rifle and smg are generally the most affected by bloom.

The term bot refers to a player who plays poorly. It originates from other shooter games where you can add Bot players (computer controlled) to a multiplayer lobby and play against them. Bots were usually pretty comical due to playing poorly, moving predictably, or getting stuck in spots.
- 90s. 90s is a specialized building technique, considered as one of the fastest methods of reaching a player who has the high ground advantage. This is a rather advanced method of building and requires a certain level of practicing.
- ADS. ADS is the shortened version of aim down sight. You can aim down the sights with almost all weapons in Fortnite by using your right mouse click. Using ADS will increase your accuracy.
- Aimbot. Fortnite had its fair share of hackers during its early days, but it’s safe to say that it’s almost impossible to run into cheaters these days. Aimbot is a popular cheat type in shooter games, and it’s also used to describe players with pinpoint accurate shots.
- Bad manners/BM. It’s hard to keep track of what’s being considered as “bad manners” on Fortnite since it heavily depends on the player. Bad-mannered actions simply refer to rubbing a good play in your opponents’ faces.
