What makes the Fortnite Daredevil Cup unique?

Epic has marketed this specific Fortnite tournament as the Daredevil Cup, referring to the blind lawyer Matthew Murdock portrayed on film and through the Netflix series. Of course, just giving this tournament the title of a Marvel character wouldn’t be enough to really make this into a “Daredevil” event as opposed to a generic Fortnite tournament.

What sets this apart is that it will be based around the Marvel Knockout LTM as opposed to the mainstay Battle Royale format. Marvel Knockout has players form teams of three superpowered characters, with powers based on popular Marvel characters.

This means that the Daredevil Cup will play out a little bit more like an Overwatch tournament than a traditional Fortnite tournament.

Players play 4 rounds, with each team getting the same randomized loadouts each time.
