The 2022 Fortnite Invitational has come to an end, and the victor has been crowned. Here is a recap of all the action day two had to offer.
Fortnite's official 2022 Invitational has come to an end, and along with that is the hype and excitement it brought with it. The best players from around the world got together in one place to see who would be crowned Fortnite's champions.
A weekend to remember, brought by thousands of excited fans. Here is our recap of day two of the Fortnite Invitational.
The day started off hot with Veno and Queasy in first for the Fortnite Invitational
Going into day two, Europe's finest, Veno and Queasy, had their grip on first place. With six games already played the day before, the duo knew they had an easy road ahead of them.
Or so they thought.
With multiple teams looking to drop them out of first, it was a rocky trail ahead of them. Although this was expected, Veno and Queasy made sure to keep themselves ahead of the game as much as they could.
With a total of four victory royales throughout the weekend, these two competitors showed up ready to represent. After grabbing the lead towards the beginning of day two, the duo made it clear they were not slowing down.
A dull moment was never seen throughout the Fortnite Invitational's finals
While holding themselves in third place for the majority of the day, Cented and Cold's battle never gave up. The two put up a fight that very few other players can say the same for.
After achieving a victory royale on day one, the team held momentum that set them apart from others during day two.
Going into the final game, Cold and Cented had a chance to potentially put themselves in second, with first having too high of a lead. Unfortunately, they were not able to take that position but still walked away with a third place.
