Fortnite OG Ranked Cups explained
This abbreviated season has led to Ranked Cups—a new way for players to participate in Fortnite OG tournaments outside of Cash Cups. These competitions offer three formats: Squads, Duos, and Solos. You can compete in any one that you’d like, and you have the option to compete as a Solo, with a complete team, or you can turn the ‘Fill’ option on to find a group of random teammates.
Ranked Cup competitors who earn at least 75 points in a session between November 9 and November 12 will receive the in-game Competitor’s Skyblades Glider. Those who do the same in a session between November 23 and November 26 will unlock the Competitor’s Time Brella Glider.
Both Gliders will shine with the color of your highest rank reached in the Fortnite OG season. If you plan to compete with a group of friends, you must ensure your entire party falls under the same ranks as defined below.
- Bronze
- Silver
- Gold
- Platinum
- Diamond/Champion/Elite/Unreal
