The Way to Get Points and How Shiny Pins Work in Fortnite Beta Tournament

Last week Fortnite Battle Royale launched a brand new update featuring in-game tournament capabilities towards the game. This started with the Fortnite Alpha Tournaments, which admittedly, had some teething troubles. But yesterday Epic Games launched the Beta tournament, which unlike Alpha, will concentrate on Duo matches.


Like before though, this really is Fortnite's way of developing a pathway and chance for just about every player to compete straight alongside the games biggest pros. But how do Fortnite Beta Tournaments function and what are the shiny pins? All this explained and more...

NO.1 How do in-game Tournaments work?

Each tournament features a series of scheduled dates and times during which the competition will likely be run. Each of these scheduled sessions is usually an entirely clean slate - all players will commence together with the identical score and compete more than many hours of intense competition to earn as lots of points and Fortnite V-Bucks as possible.

Players can earn points by either attaining high placements or eliminating many opponents. Matchmaking for the duration of a tournament session will pair players with similar point standings, so if you're playing nicely within the session you'll come across yourself matched with stronger opponents. If you are struggling then you definitely need to uncover a less difficult time the longer the session goes on.

NO.2 Fortnite Beta Tournament Details:



The Beta Tournament gets underway Today beginning at four pm BST for those of you participating in the UK. These duo matches will take place daily for the next 3 days until October 25th.

The in-game menu also carries the following facts to explain how scoring operates:

"Score up to 6 points each and every match by eliminating several opponents and surviving against the competitors. Score at the very least 20 total points within a session to earn a shiny pin!"

NO.3 Here is how you are able to score points:



4 Eliminations (1 point)
6 Eliminations (1 point)
Eight Eliminations (1 point)
Attain Top 5 (1 point)
Attain Top rated 3 (1 point)
Victory Royale (1 point)

NO.4 What are Pins?

Tournaments will function a target score to strive towards - reaching this score will award you with a shiny pin celebrating your accomplishment.

Within the future, earning a pin may advance you for the next round of a tournament or qualify you to win Genuine prizes.
