Solo Finals – July 2 @ 3PM PT / 6PM ET
Duo Finals - July 3 @ 3PM PT / 6PM ET

Currently we have no further details regarding the qualifiers. There doesn’t appear to be any option to register, so they may well only be open to certain groups of players. We will keep this article updated with the latest information.

What we do know is that you’ll be able to catch all the action live on both the FaZe Clan and Practice Server Twitch channels. Expect a high-quality production with commentary from popular Fortnite casters.
Additionally, viewers will have the chance to win some sweet FaZe merchandise! Giveaways will run throughout the broadcast, with entries available via Twitch chat and Discord.
Last year’s Elite Cup saw Slackes, Jahq, and Acorn taking first place, during a period where they were almost unstoppable as a Trio. The 2022 edition is sure to produce more exciting moments and will serve as an interesting preview of the upcoming FNCS.
