Where to follow/watch (free)
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FortniteGame/ Mixer: https://mixer.com/Fortnite Official Website: https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/en-US/watch-fortnite In-game: Epic Games have confirmed that they have introduced a brand new 'Picture-in-Picture' mode which will alow players to view the event while they search for Victory Royales. Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/fortnite


Notes about the livecams (from reddit)
You can watch the livestream on Twitch, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, in-game, or the Fortnite website. But in order to have access to the spectator cams, you need to watch from either: the Fortnite website at worldcup.fortnite.com or the YouTube channel. (You can also watch the POV cams from Twitch but you would need to change the URL everytime you want to switch perspectives - not recommended since it is kind of a hassle). The Fortnite website stream has real-time updated standings too so if you do choose to watch using a different source, you should at least have a tab of this website open for the standings (includes points, elims, who is still alive in current game, etc).

There are a total of 12 different cams, 10 of which are POV cams. Here they are:

- Main Cam - This is the main broadcast with casters commentating
- Map Cam - This is a cam showing the mini map with the location of everyone
  1. 1st place Cam - Shows the POV of the person/team currently in 1st place
  2. 2nd place Cam - Shows the POV of the person/team currently in 2nd place
  3. Player Spotlight Cam (A) - Shows the POV of a featured person/team
  4. Player Spotlight Cam (B) - Shows the POV of another featured person/team
  5. NA East Cam - Shows the POV of a random NA East person/team
  6. NA West Cam - Shows the POV of a random NA West person/team
  7. EU Cam - Shows the POV of a random EU person/team
  8. Brazil Cam - Shows the POV of a random Brazil person/team
  9. Asia Cam - Shows the POV of a random Asia person/team
  10. OCE Cam - Shows the POV of a random OCE person/team
All 10 of the POV cams change the person of interest regularly, meaning we will get a chance to see different players. However, the 1st Place Cam and the 2nd Place Cam only changes when the person/team in those positions is/are eliminated. The cam will then go to the next person/team who is/are in the lead. Unfortunately, we will NOT be able to watch a specific person for as long as we want, since there are no dedicated cams for all 100 players.

Just thought this would be helpful for those that did not know, as you probably do not want to be wasting time during the Solo/Duos games to be figuring out what each cam is for.


Scoring system
Players can earn points for match placement and from eliminations, with points awarded as follows:
  • Victory Royales: 10 Points
  • 2nd - 5th: 7 Points
  • 6th - 15: 5 Points
  • 16th - 25th: 3 Points
  • Each Elimination: 1 Point

Not sure, there's a few UK reps


And obviously the EU ones as well. Actually your homie never made the cut....

Esports player Ninja fails to qualify for Fortnite World Cup. Video game's biggest name won't be playing at the massive video game tournament next month. ... Ninja was eliminated from the solo competition two weeks ago, and on Friday he missed the cut for the duos competition.

Solo's about to get underway in next 15-20 mins for anyone interested, which is no-one. Apparently :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Checked one match out of curiosity. For someone who loves to watch CS:GO, the game is unwatchable visual mess just like Overwatch. 90% of the time I saw only walls. Everything is so colorful it's difficult to distinguish anything except for a guy the camera is locked on and his stupid box he has built around him. And the closer the game nears the end the worse it gets. They switched to overview cam and there were like 60 players in a very small circle with an entire maze of boxes built by them with those "wall building mechanics" making everything 100x worse.
