The Biggest Mistakes You Make in Free Fire

I’m going to show you the biggest mistakes you always make and the reasons why you are losing your matches, from the mistakes you make when shooting to the abilities you should not use and much more.

Prepare your popcorn, pour yourself a drink, and get comfortable because we are starting.

Number Nine: Hiding on the Map

If you are new to Free Fire or have been playing for a while, it is completely normal to feel insecure and want to hide on the map to avoid fights, with the idea of ranking up faster.

And yes, at first it can seem like a good strategy, especially when you do not have much experience and prefer to avoid the risk of dying and losing points. Who am I kidding? We are rats.

But I warn you that this is a fatal mistake in the long term. If you get used to the strategy of hiding and not facing enemies, you will not only lose the opportunity to learn from your mistakes, but little by little you will become a player who is afraid.

This mentality affects several things: your ability to anticipate the movements of other players, improve your aim, and react quickly under pressure.

A solution to this problem is to start landing in places such as P, or the blue zone of the map, where many more enemies can land. These places are ideal for training because you will constantly face enemies, allowing you to quickly learn how to make decisions under pressure and improve as a player.

Besides, you should take advantage of the fact that if you play solo and get eliminated at the beginning, you can come back to life.

Although at first it may scare you to jump into these places, you will get used to it much faster than you imagine. So move, look for fights, and do not stay still waiting for things to happen.

Number Eight: Not Warming Up Before Playing

Warming up is key to having good performance in matches, and many players do not give enough importance to preparing before starting a match. This can make a big difference between winning and losing.

If you do not warm up properly, you risk making mistakes due to a lack of agility or precision, since your hands are your main tools as a player. If they are not ready, your performance will be affected.

That is why, before entering a match, spend at least 15 minutes in Training Mode and try the different weapons.

This will improve your reaction speed and movements. So when you enter a ranked match, you will be faster, more precise, and have your reflexes active.

Number Seven: Placing Gloo Walls Incorrectly

Gloo Walls are one of the most valuable resources during fights. However, if you place them incorrectly, they can become your worst enemy instead of your salvation.

Placing Gloo Walls too far away or at the wrong angle can leave you completely exposed. Even worse, if you are one of those players who take too long to place walls or simply have trouble using them, I am going to give you a solution.

Activate the Smart Throw option for Gloo Walls. This option allows you to place Gloo Walls by simply pressing their icon, making them quick and efficient to use.

If you are a beginner or usually have problems placing them, this configuration is perfect for you because it will help you react faster and protect yourself without complications.

And it is not enough to know how to place Gloo Walls correctly. You also need enough walls so you do not get stuck in the middle of fights.

For this, I recommend equipping the Pocket, which gives you a level two Gloo Wall generator and two extra walls when starting a match.

Power it up even more with the Gloo Kit, which allows you to obtain more walls, the Gloo Box, which gives you four additional walls, and the Gloo Catalyst, which increases the speed of generating walls.

That way, you can make sure you never run out.

Number Six: Leaving a Like on the Video

What do you think? Funny? Nothing. Just kidding.

I only wanted to tell you that this video takes me a lot of time, so your like is a thank you to me.

Number Six: Shooting First Without Thinking

It is very common to shoot first when you see an enemy, but shooting first is not always the best strategy.

When you do this, your character stops, which makes you an easy target, and your enemy will be able to eliminate you very quickly.

Another very important thing is that in ranked matches, insane shots do not matter. The only thing that really counts is winning.

Only the player who survives until the end gets the victory. So play with strategy and intelligence.

By the way, shooting first can be tempting, but in 60% of cases, this increases the chances of your enemy beating you.

If you decide to shoot first and miss, it is very important to move quickly or place a Gloo Wall to protect yourself and avoid giving yourself away.

Which brings me to the next point.

Number Five: Wasting Time Outside the Zone

If you stay outside the zone for too long, you will not only lose health, but you will also be at a disadvantage against other players who are already inside the zone.

Also, while you are trying to reach the safe zone, other players can take advantage of this to shoot you and get some kills.

That is why, if you manage to reach the center of the zone, you will gain a huge strategic advantage.

You will be able to see your enemies and anticipate their movements because they have to enter the safe zone.

Besides, you will be the one who can get some easy kills.

Remember that as the game progresses, positioning becomes much more important. The better positioned you are, the easier it will be to take control of the match.

Number Four: Moving Badly or Staying Still

Mobility is key.

It is not enough to simply move. You have to do it intelligently and strategically.

If you stay still or do not constantly change your position, you become an easy target for enemies.

The best players are those who know how to trick their enemies and make it difficult for them to aim easily.

To improve your mobility, you must practice moving smoothly. Constantly change direction, crouch, jump, change weapons, and take advantage of the map’s cover to move between them.

This will help you stay alert. Also, if an enemy shoots at you, it will be much harder for them to hit their shots.

For this reason, you should use elevations, trees, rocks, and other things. This will help reduce your exposure while you move.

This brings me to mention the fact that you should never loot while standing or sitting still because it is a big mistake in ranked matches, since enemies can easily aim at you.

So whenever you are going to loot, place a Gloo Wall where you think the enemy could shoot you.

Or even better, move in circles so it is much harder for them to hit you.

Number Three: Jumping Too Much

Jumping can be very useful, but doing it all the time is a mistake.

While you are jumping, the enemy has more than an 80% chance of hitting headshots because you are in the air, and when you land, you make it easier for them to raise their aim.

I am not telling you to never jump again. Instead, use jumps strategically, whether to move between cover or surprise enemies.

Do not turn jumping into an unnecessary habit because instead of helping you, it will make you vulnerable.

But if you really need to jump, always have a Gloo Wall ready to place. This will allow you to move forward with cover while avoiding being exposed.

Number Two: Getting Nervous

It is normal to feel some pressure when only a few players remain in the match, but nervousness is your worst enemy at these moments.

If you let fear and anxiety control you, you will make mistakes that can make you lose the match.

That is why I always give the advice of playing solo versus duo or solo versus squad.

It does not matter if you lose at first. What matters is that you face several enemies at the same time because this forces you to think faster and make better decisions under pressure.

This way, you gain confidence and stop playing with fear, which will turn you into a better, more aggressive, and strategic player.

Number One: Using Character Abilities Incorrectly

Character abilities can be the key to winning or losing a fight.

However, many players make the mistake of choosing abilities randomly or not using them at the right moment, wasting their true potential.

The most important thing is to choose abilities that fit your playstyle and combine them in the best way.

For example, if you are aggressive, what you need are abilities that increase your speed and damage.

Tsuya, J, Luna, and Nikita are a very good combination if what you want is to rush.

But if you want a better and more powerful combination, I invite you to watch the five best and most powerful combinations in all of Free Fire.

Without anything else to say, I send you a big hug from a distance.

Bye, bye.
