The qualifiers are over and the Fortnite Champion Series for Season X is about to begin with a massive $10 million prize pool. Here’s all you need to know.

New to Season 10 was the Champion Series, which helped keep the esports scene rolling along, even though the World Cup was over.

Players had to compete in the Trios format, which was a nice change of pace from the solos and duos of the World Cup.

The Fortnite Champion Series Finals are here.

With qualifiers now wrapped up, all eyes are set on who will come out on top in the finals on Sunday, September 22.

Many of the big names you’ll recognize here, notably Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney who was able to snag a qualifying spot in the final week, leaving Cloak and 72hrs without a spot even though the three secured a spot together.
