0:28
fortnite tips tricks and tutorials guys don't forget to subscribe but appreciate it here we go
0:34
this is the article let's dive right in here so fortnite competitive update hello fortnite
0:41
competitors uh here we're basically saying we're going to talk about tournaments rules
0:47
enforcements policies fortnite official broadcast basically here they're saying they did the fncs invitational broadcast people enjoyed it they're going to continue to do that
0:59
going forward which is great because it's nice to watch those i think it'll be more entertaining now
1:04
that it's just not breaking into someone's box locking on with aim control and plowing through
1:08
them so this will be great uh fortnite seasonal items update here it's basically saying if you are
1:17
in the season and a new item drops they're going to wait two weeks until it goes into arena
1:22
so they're gonna keep it there and try it out first in the main area and if it goes over well
1:30
they'll put it over an arena if the evaluation works they may change it they may delete it
1:35
they may you know do whatever they need to and that's basically what they're saying here that's
1:41
good they're gonna stick with the competitive and make sure the items work well before they
1:47
throw them into arena so they aren't just blindsided by something new
1:51
Fortnite competitive integrity update. Whether you're a new or returning competitive player, we encourage everyone to make sure
1:59
they understand our rules. Future event eligibility policy If a player is caught breaking an official rule that results in a 30 or longer competitive ban that player will also be ineligible for the next season FNCS or other
2:16
pinnacle events, regardless of competitive ban timing. So they're kind of pushing the ban. If you
2:24
get in trouble, you're not going to play for a while, basically anything big. Also multiple counts
2:29
and smurfing effective immediately players will not be permitted to play in the same season's
2:35
tournaments across multiple accounts this includes restarting a tournament on a different account
2:41
to gain an unfair advantage or having multiple accounts on the same machine additionally this
2:49
season will have some cash cups broken out by arena level that is an important little thing
2:58
I just read there. Any instance of smurfing players on a secondary account that has a lower
3:04
rank than your main account in the lower level tournaments result in actions against both your
3:10
main account and smurf account. Let's unpack that because there's a lot to it. Basically what they're
3:17
saying there is say you're arena five and you can't get any higher they're gonna have competitions
3:24
tournaments for arena five that's interesting but i don't know how they're going to do that because
3:33
what about players that are really good that haven't played yet they might just go to like
3:38
arena five and stop and then win the cash cup that is going to be a very very hard thing to deal with
3:46
i don't know how they're doing it i love that they're doing it i just don't know how they're
3:50
going to be able to moderate that. Let me know what you think in the comments
3:54
if you're excited for that, and what arena you're currently in. Display name policy is another huge thing
4:02
Part of our broadcast goal is to share Fortnite competitive with a global, diverse viewer base
4:07
It is our responsibility to make sure that all parts of our broadcast are living room safe including the display names of all competitors Any player who has a questionable display name is required to change it now
4:21
Now. Or will be disqualified from current tournaments and ineligible for next season's FNCS
4:30
depending on severity or repeated rule breaks. Woo. So yeah, that's going to be tough
4:38
what names are inappropriate good luck they're leaving that up to you they're not giving you any
4:44
reference basically I guess they're saying if you have to think about it it's probably inappropriate
4:49
but they don't say it so good luck I guess if you're in that boat sometimes it's all right and
4:56
I think it's funny personally but I understand where they're going with that so let's go ahead
5:01
and keep going they also have the fortnight season three competitive tournament schedule here
5:06
so those are all the days there with the contender trio champion trio platform cash cup every thursday
5:15
hype night every sunday fncs qualifier one two three and four and then the finals in mid-august
5:24
all dates are subject to change so that's nice but don't forget dreamhack was announced today
5:30
and they're also referencing it here dreamhack online tournaments featuring fortnite we are
5:36
continuing to build out our competitive ecosystem and expanding competitive options for players with
5:41
a partnership with dreamhack the first competition will be the dreamhack open featuring fortnite
5:48
starting in july with more online tournaments being scheduled for the rest of 2020 more info
5:53
on that coming is in Dreamcast press release here so that's pretty interesting they also say here
6:02
Epic is taking time off between July 3rd and July 12th there will be no tournaments and no prizes in
6:09
those dates so if you're in competitive and you need a break that would be your time frame unless
6:14
you want to get the extra grind in and do what you can very interesting and if we go over the The Dreamhack they do an announcement here in very small print let make that a little bigger for you basically it saying we good to go with
6:28
dream hack i was actually going to make a video about dream hack opening tournaments and i saw
6:33
this i'm like well why don't we just all push it together i see a total of 1.75 million dollars
6:39
will be rewarded in 2020 prize pool of 250 000 will be up for grabs every month that's nice
6:46
considering that's extra compared to what Fortnite's offering. Oh my goodness, does it pay to be a Fortnite Pro player right now
6:55
Maybe I'm in the wrong career here. So this is pretty amazing
7:01
Let me know what you think. What tournaments you're interested in. Comment down below
7:06
Are you mad about changing your name? Do you have to change your name? I would say comment your name, but let's not start any drama here
7:14
thanks so much for watching appreciate it and one last thing i just want to say if you haven't heard
7:20
mixer is closing yes that's pretty insane can't believe it i was actually streaming there just
7:28
how many months ago and they're closing their whole platform i'm just in shock i'm hoping
7:34
i don't know i don't know what i'm hoping for it's going to be interesting to see where those
7:40
viewers and those streamers go I'm guessing between YouTube and Twitch I don't think many
7:47
of them will go to Facebook gaming unless they're in a certain racket because if they are partnered
7:52
they get their partnership if they move over to Facebook so but what is about the ninja the shroud
7:59
you know Ewok those kind of people are they going to be going to Twitch uh I mean they burned some
8:06
bridges some of them like i think ninja might have youtube gaming we want ninja on this platform i
8:11
think it'd be cool i don't know so much i'll talk about but let's not get all carried away let's end
8:17
this here thanks so much for watching here's some other videos i know you'll enjoy see you over there
