Repeat Fortnite tournaments have slowed down in recent months, but we are hoping to get them back very soon
Fortnite daily, weekly and monthly tournaments have been reduced or gone away for the last few months and we’re diligently working with Epic to get them back up and running in a way that will be beneficial to both parties.
Unfortunately there are things we are unable to share at the moment, but rest assured we are doing whatever we can to comply with Epic and are working directly with them to help benefit the Fortnite Esports community as much as we are able.
We appreciate your support, feedback, and patience during this phase.
Major Fortnite Tournaments Updates

Message from our Fortnite Game Admin
Hey guys, I’m Spades the Fortnite admin for Repeat.gg. I’m always available in direct messages on discord (Spades#7325). Feel free to reach out to me to chat, voice concerns or report a problem with anything Fortnite and other games.
I am committed to providing users a great experience with us and try to hear what everyone has to say. While Fortnite is still only one tournament a week, I’m still looking to hear feedback on scoring / formatting to make sure users are getting the best experience in our events. There is a lot of exciting news in the future and I can’t wait to tell you all.
These professional misplays in Esports will go down as some of the biggest Esports competition fails of all time.
Esports professionals represent their chosen game at the highest echelons of competitive play. Professional players train endlessly to stay on top of their game and ahead of their opponents.
During tournaments, audiences expect nothing less but stellar and entertaining gameplay when these top teams clash. However, amid all the intense matches, sometimes professionals have a lapse in judgment and commit the biggest mistakes of their careers.
While there’s no shortage of professional misplays to choose from, these fails were specifically picked for how shockingly awful they were. These plays will go down as some of the biggest Esports competition fails of all time.
Apex Legends — Team ESA loses a 3 vs. 0
Skittlecakes, dooplex, and Knoqd are considered some of the best competitive players in Apex Legends and are currently playing for OpTic Gaming. But before that, they made a big name for themselves as the best team in North America during their time as team Esports Arena.
However, during the Apex Legends Global Series (ALGS) Pro League NA Region, team ESA spotted a Caustic canister inside an RV. They made the call to engage and swooped down on the vehicle, guns and abilities blazing.
The main issue is that there’s no enemy in there. To make it even worse, the whole team died to the aforementioned toxic canister. The embarrassing moment of how team ESA lost a 3 vs. 0 was caught from their perspective, including team comms.
Guilty Gear — Most Memorable Evo Moment since Moment #37
The Evolution Champion Series (better known as Evo) is where all the biggest names in fighting games come to compete. Despite that, one moment during Evo 2015 will be fondly remembered as why players shouldn’t celebrate their wins too early.
One of Esports biggest competition fails of all time happened during the winner’s semi-finals of Guilty Gear Xrd. The iconic match was between players Ogawazato and Woshige. Both players won one set each, and it was down to the third and final set.
Ogawazato took the first round; then, Woshige snatched the second round with a sliver of health left. The crowd went wild, the shout casters started screaming in excitement, and in that adrenaline-fueled moment, Woshige stood up and proclaimed victory.
Except, the match wasn’t over. Ogawazato didn’t wait for his opponent to sit back down. He capitalized on his opponent’s blunder and ended the match without a scratch to his health bar. Then, after he won, Ogawazato popped off on stage while Woshige laughed away the pain on the desk.
Dota 2 — kYxY Denying the Aegis during TI3
The International is Dota 2’s grandest tournament where only the best team’s quality. A Malaysian team called Orange.Neolution was a strong contender during the tournament, especially their star player Mushi, who consistently performed well.
In the lower bracket, Orange was up against TI1 champion Natus Vincere. During their third and final match, Orange was looking primed to take the set, as they were up in gold, kills, and objectives. Orange pushed their lead and took down Roshan without a fight from Na’vi.
At this moment, Orange’s kYxY denied the Aegis, an item that could resurrect fallen players. He later said in an interview that he was rapidly spamming the attack button on Roshan, which is why he accidentally denied the rare drop.
While this was certainly one of the biggest Esports competition fails of all time, there were also other misplays from Orange during that match. In the end, Na’vi was able to seize a win and went to fight Alliance during the grand finals.
Overwatch — The Painful Origins of C9
C9 is one of the most common terms in Overwatch. It is used when a team forgets to touch the objective or payload which causes them to lose the match.
The meme stemmed from Overwatch Apex Season 2 back in 2017. When Cloud9, filled with strong players such as Surefour and Gods, faced off against Afreeca Freecs Blue.
The first time happened during overtime in Lijiang Tower, where they won the team fight but failed to touch the point. While one time was an unfortunate mistake, this incident happened two more times during the match. This simple but repeated mistake is one of the biggest Esports competition fails of all time, which is why the term is often used today.
League of Legends — Doublelift’s High Risk, Low Reward Offensive
Doublelift is one of the most recognized AD carries in League of Legends. Over his decade-long career, he’s appeared at Worlds multiple times and holds the most LCS championships in the game’s history.
Doublelift was representing Team SoloMid during Worlds 2017. TSM was up against a Korean powerhouse team, Samsung Galaxy. TSM needed one more win to exit the group stage and move on to the playoffs.
TSM was on the back foot the entire match. While SSG destroyed more towers than their opponents, they couldn’t push the lead since TSM was almost even in gold.
Around the 37-minute mark, TSM was able to scrap a winning teamfight while keeping all members alive. TSM immediately looked to take Baron in order to fight objectives with its buff. However, Doublelift had other plans.
Doublelift attempted to eliminate Crown’s Viktor—then died within a blink of an eye. TSM had to concede their biggest lead during that game without their primary damage dealer and lost their shot at Worlds shortly after.
PUBG — Team Brazil’s Legendary Throw Becomes One Of The Biggest Esports Competition Fails
PUBG held its first-ever Nations Cup back in 2019. This was an event where all-stars from the 16 selected countries fought in 15 matches over the course of 3 days.
During the 10th match of the tournament, the match was nearing its conclusion with three teams left in the final moment. Brazil just eliminated South Korea’s lone player, leaving the game at a 3v1 against Thailand.
At this moment, Brazil was the lowest-scoring team, so this almost guaranteed win would greatly boost their scores. Thailand’s DUCKMANZ found a solid position, and was trading blows against the likely winners. He knocked down one of Brazil’s players during this exchange.
Out of nowhere, Brazil’s Rdnx decided to hop in a car and attempted to flank the lone opponent. As he drove behind his target, he peeked out the window and started shooting. Instead, he ended up driving into the circle and into Thailand’s line of fire.
Now in the final 1v1, Thailand didn’t have the circle in their favor. Against all odds, DUCKMANZ scored the final kill to bag the chicken dinner. While Thailand’s last player certainly kept his cool during the final moments, team Brazil dropped the ball when they committed the funniest and biggest Esports competition fails of all time.
Repeat Warzone Tournaments have never been better or had higher prize pools, and we cannot wait to continue these improvements with Warzone 2 upcoming.
Warzone tournaments on Repeat.gg have gotten a major facelift in the recent months, from adding new scoring systems to our regular tournaments, adding Fortune’s Keep and Rebirth specific tournaments, and ramping up prize pools with our daily, monthly, and weekly tournaments.
We are please to bring you the first of many updates on Warzone. These will include what we have done, what we plan to do, and any major news we can share about Warzone tournaments.
What have we done with our tournaments?
In September we worked with a couple of major Warzone influencers to introduce the game to new audiences. Thanks to Kesto and ScopeShot for these amazing video campaigns! Check them out below and make sure to give them a follow on their channels.
Updates to Scoring
We’ve listened to the feedback the community has given us, introducing more tournaments with Fortune’s Keep and including more tournaments on the weekends. We’ve added Fortune’s Keep to Daily Freebies on an alternating schedule with Caldera.
With Warzone 2 around the corner we’ll be sure to stay on top of introducing new and exciting tournaments for users to indulge with as soon as possible.
What are we going to do with our tournaments?
With Warzone 2 coming within a month or so we will be introducing new tournaments on Al Mazrah. New scoring formats, more tournaments, more fun. With the fan favorite map Rebirth island sticking around, we reintroduced Rebirth weeklies and will be providing these for as long as the playlist is available on Warzone.
Please note: the next Rebirth weekly that begins Oct 7th will end on Oct 13 at midnight PST due to the Rebirth playlist expected to give way to a LTM. The following week, when Rebirth comes back, there will be another Rebirth Weekly.
Warzone 2 releases November 16th with MW2 releasing October 28th. In conjunction with these two major releases, in October we will be hosting Warzone 1 tournaments which will giveaway FREE copies of Modern Warfare 2.
These prizes will not depend on your placement in the tournament. The winners will be chosen at random, all you have to do is enter and play the minimum amount of games for your score to count and you can win.
Message from our Warzone Game Admin
I am always available in direct messages on Discord (fraeway#4556), feel free to reach out to me to chat, to voice a concern or report a problem. I am committed to continually providing the best user experience I can. With Warzone 2 coming soon we’re going to do it bigger and better than ever, there are a lot of new and exciting features coming to Repeat in the next few months and I hope you’ll stick around and enjoy all the hard work the team has put in.
Welcome to the Repeat League of Legends tournaments monthly update for September! Every month we will be providing an overview of what has been happening with League of Legends and what we plan to do in the future.
We take feedback from our users very seriously and will always welcome suggestions. If you want to be part of this discussion, I encourage you to join our Discord.
With that, lets get on with the monthly update!
What we have done with Repeat League of Legends tournaments
This month we had the pleasure to work with influencers such as Kerios and RememberTheBeat to promote our League of Legends tournaments.
Be sure to check out Kerios’ gameplay video on AP Tristanaand RememberTheBeat playing with Japanese friends on the Japanese Server!
You may have noticed our tournament’s prizes have doubled for our Weekly and Monthly League of Legends tournaments. We have also increased the frequency of our Daily Tournaments from Friday to Sunday, you will now be finding eight tournaments per day rather than four, this means double the prizes from daily tournaments on weekends!
What are we planning to do with our tournaments
We are planning to improve our League of Legends scoring system, our current scoring heavily encourages players to cheat and abuse the rules to the maximum. We will be bringing a band-aid fix to our scoring system that includes higher rewards for winning games and some punishments if you let your games run too long. The goal should be to win games as solidly, cleanly and quickly as possible, not to extend games as much as possible for kills.
Due to our recent acquisition by Sony, also do expect more changes to tournaments and prizing in the future!
Updates to League of Legends
There haven’t been any major updates to League of Legends recently, although the most recent patch is the version of the game which will be used for the World Championships starting this week. Can’t wait!
Promotions
We are currently doing giveaways for all of our game titles, be sure to check our Twitter page for more information on it!
Ongoing Issues
We are aware of issues with users pushing the boundaries of our rules to attempt to gain unfair advantage in our tournaments. The scoring update should improve this situation, but we are also working on improvements to our rules and punishments to improve the situation. Thank you for your patience
You can find me on our Discord under the nickname of Vannish. Just leave a message in #general, #chat-to-support or #lol-general and I’ll give you the best help I can.
We always want to make things better for our users, and to that end we have an exciting update to share with you all about Repeat tournaments.
Daily tournaments have been a staple for Repeat users for some time now, and we see how much you love them (we are working hard to get Fortnite dailies back). This is maybe the biggest update to dailies since we started!
Increased Frequency & Prize Pools of Daily Repeat Tournaments
League of Legends, Call of Duty: Warzone and Dota 2 daily tournament prize pools will now include a completely new schedule along with increased prize pools and increased number of entries for Warzone and Dota 2.
Knowing how much our users love to game on weekends, we have doubled the amount daily tournaments that will be run from Friday to Sunday (in Pacific time zone). Not only that, but every single daily tournament on the schedule has seen an increase in prize pools of 10-20%, depending on the game.
We hope to have an update on Fortnite and PUBG daily tournaments very soon.
Weekly & Monthly Tournament Update
We didn’t forget about our long term tournaments! These prize pools have also increased by 300% to 500%, depending on the game and tournament.
Our regularly scheduled Monthly and Weekly tournaments will often be used to showcase some of the flexibility within the game themselves by highlighting different types of games or roles available, such as Rebirth or Fortune’s Keep in Warzone, or different roles in Dota 2 and League of Legends.
If you have any ideas on how we could improve these, join our Discord and let us know! We would love to hear from you and get helpful feedback any time.
Give us a follow on our social media to be kept in the loop on future changes, new tournaments, and other exciting content.
As Call of Duty: Warzone tournaments on Repeat continue to rotate game modes and maps, we will be releasing these updates to let you know our plans for the schedule.
With the ever-changing schedule provided by Call of Duty: Warzone, Repeat tournaments will adjust as we know more.
The Last Stand update
The most recent update for the Last Stand season, which will run until the release of Warzone 2, included a change in the way they are rotating the available playlists.
For the first four weeks of Season Five they will be supporting daily rotations on Mondays through Thursdays, while weekends will be catered to an LTM plus usual rotations. The following game modes will always be available on Mondays through Thursdays:
Rebirth Resurgance and Caldera Resurgance for Quads will also rotate in on a weekday (Mon-Thur) basis at random.
What does this mean for Warzone Tournaments on Repeat?
Since Caldera and Fortune’s Keep will be on a continuous rotation every day, with just the game modes occasionally changing to Quads only, we will continue to run both of these tournament styles. Games should always continue to count no matter the team sizes allowed in the game.
Rebirth tournaments will be temporarily going away as they are not always going to be available to play each day with the rotating weekday plans and also going to a LTM at certain times. However, given that Rebirth Resurgence was added back shortly after the release of the above schedule, they may be coming back full time sooner than we think.
Continue to check back for more updates to the Warzone playlist if anything changes in the future.
If you are not following Repeat on Social Media, you should! We announce new tournaments, updates, and much more fun stuff there.
You can also join our Discord with the link above where we can usually quickly answer any support questions, you can give us feedback on what we should be doing with Repeat tournaments, and sometimes we even host AMAs with the team.
Repeat is excited to announce our next chapter, as we will be a part of the Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) family, the home of PlayStation and many amazing game studios.
This marks the most significant milestone in Repeat’s history as we continue to reimagine esports and tournaments.
We have been talking with SIE for some time now as we wanted to ensure that our vision and goals aligned.
At Repeat, we have always focused on “Esports for Everyone”. We want to bring the thrill and rush of competition to every gamer, no matter your skill level.
We did this by creating automated, easy to enter tournaments that can scale to millions of simultaneous players and have always focused on creating an inclusive environment where players could compete, improve and have fun!
SIE mirrors this vision, and with their support, Repeat will have the opportunity to scale and create esports events for millions of players. Our goal is to deliver some truly unique experiences at a scale we would not be able to without SIE’s support.
This will lead the way for an amazing future for Repeat, with plenty more game titles, features and updates which we are excited to share with you all in due time.
What does this mean for Repeat?
We will have access to more resources, game titles and technology, which will allow us to grow the team to push Repeat in directions that we had never thought would be possible.
This will allow us to grow Repeat significantly over the next couple of years with plenty of new features, continuing our mission to become synonymous with esports by creating a home where everyone has a chance to compete and win.
Is Repeat going to be PlayStation only
No, Repeat is a gaming community first and foremost and will continue with that focus in mind. We will continue to support PC, mobile and other consoles alongside PlayStation.
This includes the addition of the most popular competitive game titles, regardless of what platform they are available on.
What happens now?
For the short term it will be business as normal for Repeat, and we don’t expect any significant changes.
In the background we will be planning, working and as always getting stuff done!
We are so excited for the future and the ability to work alongside such a powerhouse in gaming; we can’t wait to share what we have planned for the future.
Thank you to those who have given us feedback, competed in tournaments and been active in our community.
The journey has only just begun! Stay tuned for updates and check out our FAQ for more info. For any help setting up your account or questions you have, please join our Discord.
How to Add Your Game ID and Enter Tournaments on Repeat.gg
How Standard Scoring Works
The below video explains how Fortnite scoring works for standard tournaments.
The below video explains how Warzone scoring works for standard tournaments.
The below video explains how League of Legends scoring works for standard tournaments.
The below video explains how Dota 2 scoring works for standard tournaments.
The below video explains how PUBG scoring works for standard tournaments.
With Call of Duty: Warzone Tournaments on Repeat.gg, we will follow the game’s lead in which game modes are available.
Calling all Call of Duty: Warzone players on Repeat! We are going to be following a schedule and trying out some new tournaments for Warzone based on the new schedule Call of Duty has made publicly available.
Currently we have added three new tournaments which are live and currently counting scores, one for Fortune’s Keep, one for Rebirth, and one in the typical BR mode for Caldera.
The Rebirth tournament will be Quads only, but once the game releases more modes on July 21 then those same modes will all count.
Keep in mind, these Rebirth and Fortune’s Keep tournaments are meant so only the games played in that playlist will count towards your total score in these tournaments.
What about Caldera Warzone tournaments?
Of course, we have not forgotten about the Caldera tournaments and these will continue to run as long as that map is available. The plan moving forward will be to implement these new maps and game modes into our daily and weekly tournament schedule, and potentially even use different formats for the Monthly Championship series.
All of this depends on the game modes allowed by Warzone and whether these new maps are limited time only or part of their long term plan. We will not do tournaments for limited time modes or events at any point.
We have implemented scoring templates that cater to each map’s playstyle and will continue to evaluate the scoring system as Warzone introduces new maps / playlists. If you have any suggestions to help make this better, we are always open to feedback. Reach out to us at [email protected] if you have feedback to offer.
We have made a change to our Fortnite tournaments in the short term and wanted to give you an update for the future of these tournaments.
As you most likely noticed, many of the Fortnite tournaments have stopped appearing on Repeat.gg and we know you may be confused as to what is happening. Below you will find some insights into the decision and the plan moving forward.
What Happened to Fortnite Tournaments?
For the foreseeable future, we will only be hosting one tournament per week for Fortnite which will be a $1,000 tournament with Pubs and Arenas. This tournament will reappear at the same time every week.
Within the next 30-60 days we will have talks with Epic about how we can get back to running more tournaments and resume our normal schedule.
During this time we would love any feedback on what you would want us to work on with the tournament we will be running and also feedback for tournaments to run in the future.
We’re very sorry for this inconvenience, but we are hoping it will return back to normal shortly. Thank you for your understanding.
How Will The Weekly Fortnite Tournament Work?
The tournament will appear on the website on Sunday night / Monday morning and open registration will last 5 days. Games will begin counting at 12pm PST on Friday and run until 5pm PST on Sunday.
This tournament will be open to Pubs and Arenas, but only the building game mode for now. We will be exploring no builds tournaments in the future.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to our new game admins on Discord as they will be able to answer to the best of their ability, or you can always email support.
Make sure you are following us on social media for more updates like this. You can find all of our pages here.
Looking for reasons to play on the weekend? You just found them as Repeat has added Weekend Cash and Coin Cups.
While some of you prefer to only play in our free-entry tournaments, we know the real competitive Repeat players are looking for ways to challenge themselves every day. This is where our cash and coin entry tournaments come in to play, which gives users the ability to bet on themselves and keep earning in their account.
Good news for those of you willing to part with those hard-earn coins or cash, Repeat has added even more with the introduction of the Weekend Cash Cup and Weekend Coin Cups.
Weekend Cash Cups
The Weekend Cash Cups (and the Weekend Coin Cups for League of Legends) will have a bit more prestige that come along with playing in them.
Winners of these will get a shout out on our social media pages and also be granted entry into the following weekend’s events for FREE.
This, of course, is on top of the benefit of winning more cash into your account so you can get that item in the Repeat Marketplace you’ve had your eyes on.
Weekend Coin Cups
The Weekend Coin Cups for our non-League of Legends games are just a fun way to add coins into your account if you place high enough in them. If you’ve been sitting on coins in your account, why not try to put them to good use by getting even more?
Both tournament types will take place over the entire weekend. They will start counting games at 12pm PST and go all the way until 11:59pm PST on Sunday night. And both of these tournaments will have a regular and an “elite” version, which are for the top competitors and come with a higher entry fee, but also a higher payout.
Repeat Adds Game Admins To Help Protect Against Cheating
One of the biggest issues we face as a tournament hosting platform are cheaters. Repeat have recently added Game Admins who are experts in the games we have and are in a unique position to identify cheaters and assist our support staff.
