A major detail having been announced is that there will be 100 teams competing in the newly announced event, which is sure to allow for the organizer to field a bracket consisting of a multitude of high profile players that have participated in past events, such as Tyler "Ninja" Belvins, Turner "Tfue" Tenney and Dennis "Cloak" Lepore of FaZe Clan and others.

New tournament format will be in place on the 22nd!
- 100 TEAMS (Duos)
- NO DOWNTIME (No waiting hours for games)
- $20,000 Prize Pool
Looking for creators willing to test this out. May be a few hiccups but it will be the future of tournaments!
In a previous announcement regarding the creation of the new tournament format, the group stated that the event will have a prize pool of $20,000 and that there will be no downtime between matches in order to avoid the long wait times that would likely come from a bracket full of 100 teams.
With two previous successful events under their belt, the popularity of competitive Fortnite at an all time high and the introduction of a brand new format, the NerdOut x Bebo Invitational Tournament has the potential to deliver a spectacular show to the community.
