Fortnite Global Championship 2024 format and players
It was a tight contest at the top of the FNCS, and now we sought our championship duo to reward them well: A massive $400,000 prize was up for grabs for the champion on Sept. 7 and 8.
The grand final was held over two days of competition, with six matches of Battle Royale taking place each day. Duos scored points based on team eliminations and final placement in each match; the team with the highest score after game 12 took out the championship.
Matches seven through 12 (day two) were scored with a 50 percent bonus, so even if a team dominated day one, it was still possible for a duo to make a comeback on championship Sunday. Here are the players who participated in the Fortnite Global Championship this year and how they got there.
