MrBeast, the popular YouTube celebrity, unveiled the Creator League, a brand-new esports competition that will include eight of the most prominent influencers and content producers. Over the course of the first season, these eight creators and their supporters will compete in a variety of tournaments. M rBeast has collaborated with the staff of eFuse to host Creator League even though he is not personally involved in the competition.
Starting with Season 1, the Creator League is prepared to conduct a year-round schedule of competitions and events with sizable prize pools. Notably, the first season will be divided into four parts, with the first part beginning on September 8 and ending on October 5. On September 19, the League will have its first competitive Fortnite event. The Fortnite main event for Split 1 has a prize pool of $200,000.
The Creator League showcases a long list of influencers as followed:
Darren Jason Watkins Jr aka IShowSpeed
Sapnap
One True King Network
Bella Poarch
Optic Gaming (Scump and H3CZ)
Vinnie Hacker
Connor Marc Colquhoun aka CDawgVA
Cody "Clix" Conrod
The founder of eFuse Matthew Benson told Forbes, "We wanted to amplify with one of the biggest megaphones, if not the biggest megaphone, in the world with MrBeast's reach.” Benson touched upon how the creators who are a part of the Founders Edition and the first season of Creator League are more than capable of drawing in a crowd themselves, eFuse wanted it to make it even bigger.
In Split 1, teams will compete against one another in Hardpoint, Capture the Flag, and Oddball 3v3 zero-build Fortnite events. In addition to the $50,000 prize, there will also be an open qualifying competition where fans can take part and qualify for the League.
In the Creator League, the community pass has a significant impact. Fans can participate in the open qualifying tournament by purchasing a community pass for the team of their choice. They will also participate in important choices that will alter the league's course. In addition to other benefits, fans will be able to vote on team strategy and draught picks.
