These 64 players of the KEEMSTAR Friday Fortnite UMG Tournament bracket will compete in 32 teams of two in squads matches. Teams will battle to secure more kills than their opponents over the span of two matches. A third match will be played if the kill totals are tied after two games to determine the winner.
