Fortnite: Benjyfishy finds his mom in the ‘Mongraal cup’ tournament, and his reaction is hilarious!

Fortnite's Chapter 2 Season 3 has seen a sudden rise in the number of competitive tournaments that Epic hosts. The tournaments have been well received by fans, and thousands of players are coming forward to take part in them.

The Mongraal Cup was a Solo only tournament conducted earlier this month. The tournament was held in Europe, and saw more than 500,000 registrations.

The tournament was hosted and administered by Kyle Jackson, aka Mongraal. He's a popular Fortnite streamer with more than 3 million followers on YouTube. The Mongraal Cup was a Solo only tournament with prizes worth $10,000, and was divided into two rounds. Only the top 1000 from the first round moved to the second round.

With such a high number of participants, it was entirely possible for people to run into somebody they know in real life. That is exactly what happened with Benjyfishy, another popular Fortnite streamer who plays competitively for the NRG Fortnite team.
