It’s that time of the week again – 64 top YouTubers, streamers and influencers are set to compete in the sixth running of the Friday Fortnite tournament hosted by KEEMSTAR and UMG Gaming.
The Friday Fortnite started from humble beginnings with a $5,000 prize pool, but after five successful weeks it now sits at a whopping $20,000 split between the top three teams.
Just as in previous weeks, there are lots of famous faces taking part in this week’s tournament.
Familiar names such as Ninja, FaZe Clan players Tfue and Cloak and Dr DisRespect are taking part. Ninja is coming in hot off his win at the Fortnite Pro-Am and will be partnering up with TSM player Daequan to form a formidable duo – they face previous winners TypicalGamer and SoaR Thief in round one.
New OpTic Gaming pro player ‘Baldy’ is also taking part, teaming up with OpTic content creator Jack “CouRage” Dunlop, and they will be facing off against NICKMERCS and Luminosity’s SypherPK in round one.
