Here’s everything you need to know about the CCA Fall 2023 Creative Series featuring Fortnite.

The 3v3 collegiate competition deviates from the traditional Fortnite tournament format. Rather than a straightforward Battle Royale setup, the Fall 2023 Creative Series dips into the Fortnite Creative landscape.

Map makers specifically designed two maps based on familiar Call of Duty game modes Hardpoint and Control. The competition kicks off September 11 with the Open Qualifiers and continues for the next seven weeks.

Here are some key dates and the format explanation for the CCA Fall 2023 Creative Series:

All registered teams will be split into four regions by Event Admins after registration closes. Each region will participate in a double-elimination bracket to determine the top 16 teams per region. The top 16 teams per region will advance to the Seeding Swiss stage.

The Top 16 teams per region will be grouped into a Swiss group to determine their seeding. No teams will be eliminated in this stage. Following this stage, teams across all regions will be split into 8 groups of 8 teams based on their regional seedings.

The CCA Fall 2023 Creative Series Group Play stage will consist of 8 groups of 8 teams. Over three weeks, each group will play a round-robin where each team within will play each other exactly once. Upon completing Group Play, the top 2 teams per group will advance to the Finals Seeding Swiss. The 3rd-6th place teams per group will advance to the Last Chance Qualifier. The 7th and 8th place teams per group will be eliminated.

The Last Chance Qualifier will consist of a single round of matches, determined based on teams’ group placements. The winning team of each Last Chance Qualifier match will advance to the Finals, while the losing team will be eliminated.

The top two teams from each group, 16 total, will play in a Finals Seeding Swiss to determine seedings in the Finals. No teams will be eliminated in this stage.

The Finals will be a double elimination bracket. The 16 teams from the Finals Seeding Swiss stage will start in the upper bracket, while the 16 teams from the Last Chance Qualifier will start in the lower bracket.
