FNCS Major 2 Semi-Finals Format
The FNCS Semi-Finals mark the final regular week of the Major tournament. The format is divided into two halves – the Lower Semis and Upper Semis, based on players’ leaderboard standings from previous rounds.
This three-day tournament includes an Upper round for the top 50 leaderboard players, competing in five matches. The winners proceed directly to the Grand Finals, while the rest earn points for the leaderboard. The top 25 move forward, while the others must compete in the lower bracket to secure their spot.
Duos ranking 26-50th move down to the Lower Semis round, where they face off against lower-placed Duos from qualifiers. Those who perform well in the top side of the lobby earn a chance to compete in a second Upper Semis round and then progress to the final round.
Once the Semi-Finals are complete, the players for the Grand Finals are determined. The FNCS Major 2 Semi-Finals promise to be an exciting few days as top Fortnite players vie for their spots in the finals.
New Skin for the FNCS

A new and exclusive bundle has been released to commemorate the FNCS Major 2 Semi-Finals – the Champion Siren skin. This skin has an interesting backstory.
FNCS skins typically offer new versions of existing characters, but the Champion Siren skin is unique. The original Siren skin design closely resembled a military figure from a controversial era, prompting Epic Games to discontinue its availability. With the addition of Lego Fortnite, a Lego version of the skin was introduced but not made available for purchase. The new Champion Siren skin provides a rare opportunity for players to obtain a version of this unique skin for the FNCS Major 2 Semi-Finals.
