The tournament is unique as it will see $50,000 going to the winning team’s chosen charities and a further $50,000 going to the chat on Twitch with no information yet how this will be distributed.
You can expect 100 Thieves CEO and former CoD pro Matthew “Nadeshot” Haag to be competing and probably alongside Fortnite’s Denis “Cloakzy” Lepore and Thomas “72hrs” Mulligan who he has been playing with since it’s release.
One player who is not yet confirmed, but would be notable by his absence, is Nick “Nickmercs” Kolcheff.
He has been loving the game since release, so much so, that in a recent stream he said he might be giving up Fortnite for good saying: “Man… Fortnite huh? What was it? Two years and some change? I think we had a good run.”
The only thing stopping his appearance though was the circumstances of his leaving 100 Thieves when he claimed that Nadeshot broke promises after a dispute about an equity deal regarding the esport organisation.
What we do know is that many of 100 Thieves roster will be playing including Noah “NoahJ456” Johnson and Jack “CouRage” Dunlop.
Pick me because I’m the only man on planet earth strong enough to catch @CouRageJD out of mid air. https://t.co/hP4EagqEskhttps://t.co/nvjrRV5g32
