After months of anticipation, the Fortnite World Cup finally happened in New York on July 26-28. Over $30 million in prize money was given away across the Creative World Cup, Pro-Am, solos, and duos events. Kyle \u2018Bugha\u2019 Giersdorf was able to succeed without any help to scoop up the $3 million grand prize in solo play with his stunning skills, yet the duos competition was more tightly contested. While european partners Aqua and Nyhrox came out as the victors, their run at the top has already come to an end. In the early hours of Friday, August 2, Aqua tweeted out that he would be partnering with Klaus \u2018stompy\u2019 Konstanzer for the next duos tournament \u2013 whenever that may be.
