Tournament Preview
The duos competition is going to feature the Big Bonus scoring system previously used during both the Summer Skirmish and earlier in the Fall Skirmish.
It’s a balanced format that awards three points for a Victory Royale, two points for finishing second or third and one point for coming in fourth or fifth. It also grants a point for three or four eliminations, two points for five or six eliminations and three points for seven or more eliminations.
In an effort to add further incentive to play aggressively, teams can earn a bonus point for each kill after their seventh combined.
Other bonuses include $50,000 for each win during the Grand Finals and $50,000…
