Fortnite Duos Cash Cups in Chapter 5 Season 4

The Fortnite Duos Cash Cups this season are events taking place each week. There are two different tournaments, a Duos Cash cup in Battle Royale and a Zero Build Cash Cup. However, the format and scoring are the same for both. The biggest change is the meta, with the randomness of Zero Builds meaning players emphasize staying alive in that final circle a lot more.

Each of the Cash Cups is divided up into two different sessions. The first is ten rounds, where players earn points to try and qualify for Round 2. The second round is where points place you on a leaderboard, with high-ranking players getting a cash prize. Each of the events is cross platform, but with a different tournament running for each region. This is how the scoring will work and how players can earn points for the tournament:
