Mongraal Cup dates
The Mongraal Cup 2020 has been scheduled to take place on July 14 at 7:30 PM and July 15 at 2:30 AM.
Fortnite Mongraal Cup registration
Fortnite players can register for the Mongraal Cup on the official website of Epic Games at the link here. Once you land on the page, hit the 'Register' button, which will prompt you to confirm if you are a registered Fortnite player. Post confirmation, you will be asked to choose a platform, and log in to your Epic Games account either directly or using Facebook, Google, Xbox Live, PlayStation Network or other platforms. From here, you simply need to follow the on-screen instructions and provide the requested details.
Scoring
The Fortnite Mongraal Cup is only open to players in the European region, meaning that those who live outside of Europe won't be able to participate in the tournament. You should also note that this will be an open tournament, allowing every Fornite player to register and try out their luck. Even ones who do not have a Fortnite account yet can create a new one and sign up for the contest. However, to qualify for the next stage, players will have to be among the 1,000 best players based on the scale below.

Mongraal Cup prize pool
The event will be held over two days and have the ultimate prize pool of $10,000. It is unclear how the prize will be distributed, however, it is believed to be similar to the Benjyfishy Cup where the top 1 will be rewarded with $5000 while the second and third place will receive $3000 and $2000 respectively.
Kyle Jackson isn't the first Fortnite player who is being honoured with a tournament of such kind. His former brother-in-arms Benjyfishy and MrSavage are two popular Fortnite stars who recently collaborated with Epic Games to organize their own competitions.
