Well, FNCS has come back from Sunday without any hype from way-too-hyped Fortnite fans! Just to confirm that Epic Games dropped the announcement just minutes ago, so no wonder the competitive scene is jittery-and why are the comments oddly empty? Where are y’all at??

This is how it works: FNCS Major 2 Group 1 kicks off with EU players battling against each other at 16:40 CEST (10:40 am ET for you folks in the good ol’ US). At that time frame, NAC (North America Central) takes over at 22:40 CEST (4:40 pm ET). What else? You get the Aces Wild Card Spray just for tuning in-which is not exactly a Victory Royale but hey, free stuff is free stuff! Right?

The missing thing is replies, usually FNCS tweets are hyped with funny memes or begging from players requesting that the loot pool be touched. Not today? Nothing even close. Crickets. Maybe they’re all busy grinding in Creative or sobbing over the latest meta change. Now for the conspiracy theory: maybe the tweet just came out, and all hell is about to break loose. Hold on.

In case those dark pieces have been under a Battle Bus, FNCS is basically where the big boys play. Mad building styles, clutch editing, and the kind of moments that make you really shout at your screen. Well, Major 2 is where the competitive season continues, and this is where the pressure makes its start in Group 1. You win here, and you get one step closer to bagging the money at the finals. Lose? Well then…there’s always the next season.

If there’s a lack of replies, that indicates nothing spicy to say, no drama, and that, without doubt, “why is EU always first?” complaint will be incoming! But if you ask me, it is kind of an eerie silence. Who knows; maybe they are saving all their energy for Sunday. Or they are all in shock that Epic actually remembered to schedule something on time!

So mark your calendar, set your alarms, and prepare your viewing parties for the greatest players in the world to welcome below. And if you’re that brave, you might just break the ice by leaving a response under that tweet.
