Well, that was quick! The first FNCS of Chapter 3 wraps up today and some region’s winners have already been crowned.
Epic Games mysteriously condensed the FNCS format this season, meaning less than three weeks between Qualifier 1 and Finals. However, there was still time for plenty of hype moments, and with a total prize pool of over $3,000,000, the victors will be far from disappointed.
This was also the debut of the new Match Point system, in which a team can end the tournament early by reaching 500 points and earning 3 Victory Royales. After all 12 matches, Australian Open champs Basil and Jace came out on top again in OCE, grabbing 3 VRs and coming up just one point short of the threshold – so it’s sort of possible with a perfect match history, but highly unlikely to happen in any of the bigger regions.
Today’s the day…
