Shroud’s team headlines a star-studded collection of names for today’s Code Red Apex Legends tournament.Format and rules
Unlike most previous Code Red tournaments, the March 26 running doesn’t feature a bracket, instead pitting all of the teams against each other in a ‘race against the clock’ type format.
All squads have four hours to queue into matches and get as many eliminations as they can. Leaderboards are determined by kills only, and since wins/placement don’t award points, teams have the option of leaving matches early if they feel it offers them a better chance at getting more eliminations.

After the four hours, each team’s five highest kill games will be eligible, and the squad that has the most eliminations will be declared the winner.
If there is are any ties, they will be decided by the following tiebreakers:
- Player w/ highest individual Eliminations
- If still tied, compare 2nd highest from both teams
- If 3rd on both teams are tied, both teams will get in one additional game w/ same Eliminations & tiebreakers format.
