Ludwig Mondays: Fortnite event format
Little is known about Ludwig’s planned Fortnite events. For now, all the YouTube streamer has confirmed is the prize pool and obviously, the game itself.
$100,000 is set to be split across however many events he runs. This funding comes directly from Epic Games thanks to a new partnership.
Epic GamesFirst on the agenda is a tournament focusing on “small creators.” This means any upcoming personalities with “less than 1,000 average viewers” could join in on the action and win some cash. Each team of budding streamers is set to be joined by a “big streamer friend” of Ludwig’s in the captain spot.
We’re likely to see custom lobbies in effect for each Fortnite event, with standard rules in effect. Kills and placement in each match will presumably be just as important as ever.
As always, we’ll keep you updated right here once the finalized ruleset is made public. Though knowing Ludwig, it’s sure to be a messy event right up until the final moments.
