Tournament Mechanics

Tournament Mechanics

Here are the things to remember if you plan on participating during in-game tournaments!

Points Will Differ Per Tournament

The amount of points earned is different per tournament. Players can check specific in-game tournament details to know more about the points system.

Play Aggressively Or Stealthily!

With this new scoring format introduced, it will be up to you how to approach the battle! You can aggressively eliminate opponents, or sneak around to place in a higher rank!

Tips To Improve Your Aim

Get Matched Against Players Of The Same Level

Get Matched Against Players Of The Same Level

You will be matched with players with a similar skill level based on how well you are doing. This means that you may be matched with stronger players if you are having a particularly easy time, and vice-versa!

Earn Shiny Pins!

Possibly Advance To The Next Round

As of now, Epic is planning on how to further improve this competition. The pins you earn during the competition may be how you will proceed to further rounds, and compete more!
