Each tournament will be broken down into two rounds, with the best players from round one advancing to round two. For those players playing from the same regions as last year’s world champions, one fewer slot will be available for advancement in order to give the remaining players a chance to take on the best.
For today’s Fortnite duo’s tournament, that means those within the European Fortnite region will have their chance. However, just because you aren’t from Europe doesn’t mean you shouldn’t play as all regions will be handing out prizes to the best players.
Likewise, tomorrow’s solo tournament will allow players in the North American East tournament a shot against Bugha.
Aqua and nhyrox
Aqua and Nhyrox won last year’s duo tournament at the Fortnite World Cup, and both are strong contenders for the spot of best Fortnite player in the world at the moment. However, just because they were the best last year doesn’t mean they’ll be the best here. The Fortnite community has had a year to hone their skills and develop their techniques, and after winning the World Cup both of these players have been in the community’s spotlight.
Bugha
Bugha became a household name in the Fortnite community after winning $3 million at the World Cup. He was widely recognized as the best Fortnite player by a long shot after his performance showed that he could pull off tactics that even the other pros struggled to do.
Much like the other two, however, his performance has been the center of attention by the competitive Fortnite community, and after a year of adaptation it’s still possible that someone beats him in the upcoming tournament.
The reigning champs
These three players are currently the best Fortnite has seen, at least until someone can best them in a tournament setting. Although online tournaments don’t have the consistency and control of an in person LAN tournament, they are the best many players can hope for given the ongoing pandemic.
The player rankings will be published over at FortniteTracker.com, and be sure to check back here for a breakdown of the numbers on who won and how well the reigning champs did.
