Epic Games is wrapping up the "Fortnite" Marvel Knockout Series with its final tournament, the Venom Cup, on November 18. Read on as we have provided complete "Fortnite" Venom Cup Details such as how to register, regional start times, and how to win the free Venom "Fortnite" skin and other freebies.
'Fortnite' Venom Cup: How to Register?
Joining the Venom Cup is easy, but participants must adhere on basic requirements to play in the tournament. Since the Venom Cup is a Duos event, this means you will need a Duo partner and both participating accounts should be at least Level 30 with two-factor authentication enabled. Take note that matchmaking has been disabled, so players would need to tag along a friend to join the tournament.
To check the level of the account, click on the tab under Career in the top right of the lobby screen. If the 2FA is not yet activated, players may visit https://epicgames.com/2FA, log in to their Epic accounts, and follow instructions on the screen.
For those who are eligible to play, they just need to go to the Compete tab in the game lobby and look for the Venom Cup. Make sure to check the regional start times to avoid missing the event. However, in case you failed to join the first event, check out the second one, which will be held just hours after the first. Players can join in both sessions and get two chances to win.
Important Details: What time does the Venom Cup in 'Fortnite' start?
There will be two sessions in the "Fortnite" Venom Cup on November 18: 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST). Those who participated in the first event can also join the second one, so there are two chances to compete in this tournament. Each tournament session takes three hours.
With regional differences in location, there will be different start times for each region, so players need to play with extra coordination. Here is the different Venom Cup start times converted into EST.

'Fortnite' Venom Cup scoring
For the Venom Cup, players will need to play in Duos and focus on the Marvel Knockout LTM. Players could spawn with four random Superpowers mirrored between each competing team, so regardless if they have great or terrible abilities, their enemies will be fighting at a similar level. This playing mode aims to accrue the most number of Eliminations within the limited time in a series of rounds. Winners of each round would advance in the in-match ladder while pairs are scored based on their level in up to 10 match ladders.
First Ladder: 25 points
Second Ladder: 10 Points
Third-fourth Ladder: 5points
Fifth-eighth Ladder: 3 points
Ninth-16th Ladder: 1 point
How to get the 'Fortnite' Venom skin?
Duos who could place high enough after 10 matches in either session can get the Venom skin early. Based on the provided scoring system, within three hours playing for each tournament session, duos with the highest total points in 10 matches will emerge as winners.
The leaderboard can be viewed in the Venom Cup page. Meanwhile, the number of winners is different for each region, please check below:
Oceania: First-150th
Asia: First-150th
Middle East: First-150th
Europe: First-1200th
Brazil: First-300th
NA East: First-750th
NA West: First-300th
To get the free Venom "Fortnite" skin, players will need reach the 150th place for Oceania, Asia, and Middle East; 300th place for Brazil and NA West, 750th place for NA East, and 1,200th place for Europe. While it would be quite difficult to get this free skin through Venom Cup placement, it will soon be available in the "Fortnite" Item Shop as well as the pickaxe and other cosmetics later this week.
Aside from the skin, "Fortnite" Venom Cup players can also earn the Symbiote Slasher Pickaxe, Tendril Tote Back Bling, and We Are Venom Built-In Emote before they hit the Shop.
"Fortnite" is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, Android, and Switch.
