Fortnite's building and editing UI is designed around 16:9, so almost the entire pro scene plays at native widescreen. Lower resolutions show up for FPS reasons, not visual preference.
Only if your framerate is dipping below your monitor refresh rate. Fortnite is more FPS-sensitive than CS or Valorant (building, edits, render distance) — if you can't hold ~360 fps stably at 1440p, dropping to 1080p is a real upgrade.
A small minority of creators play stretched 4:3 for wider-model rendering, similar to CS. The pro scene at large stays on 1920×1080 native.
1920x1080 — 103 of 111 pros (92.8%).
A small minority do for wider models, but most pros stay on native 16:9. Stretched costs FOV and most Fortnite UI is built around 16:9.
Only via FPS gains. The lower-res rendering itself doesn't help aim — it's the framerate boost that does.
