With everyone stuck at home due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Epic has decided to give everyone something to do by announcing a brand new tournament – the Daily Duos Cup.<\/p>\n
This event is set to run for 37(!) consecutive days starting from tomorrow, Wednesday 25th March and running until 30th April.<\/p>\n
The event will be played between for three hours in an afternoon slot – the European region playing between 2-5 pm in the first week before moving to the later time of 3-6 pm.<\/p>\n
In an interesting take, only the daily winners of each region will take home a cash prize which stands at $750. PC and Console\/Mobile players will play in separate lobbies. <\/p>\n
The format is also all-new, heavily favouring placement with duos getting awarded on a sliding scale from top 28 all the way to the Victory Royale.<\/p>\n
In other news, Epic has decided to amalgamate the Contender Cash Cups<\/a>, which are currently split between Ghost and Shadow variants, whilst also combining their prize pools.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Victory Royale: 13 Points Each Elimination: 1 Point<\/p>\n This format will heavily favour placement so it will be all about staying alive until the end game. <\/p>\n It will be interesting to see if players will play that way or still favour “w” keying but those that decide to go all-out attack will likely not be at the top of the leaderboard by the end of the tournament.<\/p>\n Daily Duos will run daily for 36 days starting from 26th March and ending on 30th April.<\/p>\n That means some days we will have both the Fortnite Championship Series or Cash or Solo Cups on the same day.<\/p>\n For that reason, the Daily Duos are scheduled for between 1-6 pm in their respective regions timezones. <\/p>\n The Daily Duos will not have an official broadcast but here are some players and their streams who are likely to be competing.<\/p>\n EU:<\/strong><\/p>\n NAE:<\/strong><\/p>\n NAW:<\/strong><\/p>\n Daily Duos is rather unique in its prizing, only the 1st place Duo from each region will take home $750, there are separate tournaments for PC and Console\/Mobile players with both having the same $750 prize pool.<\/p>\n With six regions and 70 tournaments each that gives the Daily Duos an overall prize pool of $315,000.<\/p>\nScoring System<\/h2>\n
