Players need just to have reached Contender League (Division I, II, or III) in Arena to be eligible to play in this season’s edition of the popular tournament. <\/p>\n If you are in the Champions League, then you want to check out Chopper’s Champion Cup<\/a>.<\/p>\n The action will also be everyone’s favourite game mode Trios, meaning you can team up your squad and battle it out with some of the best in your region for a chance at up to $3,000.<\/p>\n To find out how you can get involved, and the rules, format and everything else, read on.<\/p>\n There are currently three scheduled Castor’s Contender Cups. Each session lasts three hours.<\/p>\n Tuesday, 15th September<\/strong>: 6 pm – 9 pm CEST (EU) Teams of three (Trios) will have as many as ten matches to play in a three-hour window.<\/p>\n Each session will last approximately three (3) hours. Teams will earn points based on the scoring system detailed below.<\/p>\n Victory Royale: 14 points Each Elimination: 1 point, capped at 20 elimination points per match.<\/p>\n Each final standing listed below also will award the players with a Champions League event<\/a> token, giving them one time access to a tournament with those entry requirements.<\/p>\n Rank Prize Rank Prize For prizing for all the regions can be found in the Chapter 2 Season 4 rule book<\/a>.<\/p>\n Rules for this season’s competitive events have seen quite a few changes, most importantly all Cash Cups are now region locked. Meaning if you compete in any other region, you will not be able to compete in another region’s events on that same scheduled day.<\/p>\n Epic Games have also clarified what is and isn’t teaming<\/a> ahead of this season’s competitions, it is worth getting read up on these things lest you get caught out.<\/p>\n As this is the Contender Cup most of your favourite streamers won’t be playing this event, but rather will be competing in Chopper’s Champions Cup. These two events run-in tandem, so if you are interested in watching high-level Fortnite check out our tournament guide for Chopper’s event<\/a> and you will find some streams there.<\/p>\n
