Week 1 KEEMSTAR Friday Fortnite UMG Tournament Champion 100 Thieves streamer NICKMERCS responded to the reveal of what may be the next logo for the event and showed off his support of the new design with a simple, yet effective fire emoji.

The previous logo for the KEEMSTAR Friday Fortnite Tournament featured the name of the grassroots competitive event for the battle royale title from Epic Games in the same style of font of the game's title, but the next possible logo for the weekly series could feature a much more intricate design that features the personal logo of the Drama Alert host on a structure that is towering over what is likely a player celebrating a sweet victory royale. 

At the time of this writing, KEEMSTAR has not confirmed if the Friday Fortnite UMG Tournament will utilize the newly proposed logo. However, with another edition of the event coming Friday, June 15th and enough support from the community, fans of Friday Fortnite could possibly be seeing the tournament utilizing some new branding for this week's slate of action.
