31 May Fortnite: FNCS Chapter 2 – Season 6 Finals Recap & Results
ESTNN recaps and breaks down the FNCS Season 6 Finals.
The third consecutive trios Fortnite Champion Series (FNCS) granted teams worldwide the chance to cement their legacies in Chapter 2 – Season 6. Epic Games solidified the three-player team format before 2021, allowing for more consistency across the board as competitors looked to readjust and establish themselves in their respective scenes. The anticipation and build-up led to this weekend, where 33 trios in seven server regions competed for a share of $3M USD, the Axe of Champions and a guaranteed spot in the FNCS Chapter 2 – Season 7 Finals.
Storylines materialized rapidly throughout the season. Teams like the defending European FNCS Champions — Hen “GUILD Hen” Mclean, Jannis “GUID JannisZ” Matwin and Moussa “Chapix” Faour — fought to reclaim what they earned in Season 5. Others such as Martin “100T MrSavage” Foss Andersen, Endre “NVD Endretta” Byre and Oscar “Falcon Refsgaard” Dalgas Refsgaard attempted to win their first FNCS title.
North American East (NA East) teams led by Malachi “ENDL8SS Reverse2k” Greiner and Evan “FaZe Cented” Barron set out to complete a season of hard work with a 12 match marathon. However, only seven teams would ultimately earn the title of “best Fortnite trio.” Day one set the stage for an exciting finish.
Europe – The High-Ground Kings Topple the Opposition

The European region orchestrated an exciting finish to the season with only the best of the best atop the leaderboard. After leading on day one, MrSavage, Endretta and Refsgaard controlled the story with ultimate supremacy on the line. However, the high-ground dominance of Aleksa “LootBoy Queasy” Cvetkovic, Nikola “Glorious TruleX” Krudulj and Wave Jur3ky yielded them the Season 6 victory as staunch underdogs.
It was not easy; Queasy, TruleX and Jur3ky battled through adversity but found themselves in many advantageous positions. MrSavage and his teammates led until the final three-game stretch, where Queasy and company crept into first-place. A tournament-clinching seventh-place finish with three eliminations proved enough to ward off the storming Norwegians. Queasy’s team completed their FNCS title bid with 333 points, three Victory Royales and 53 eliminations. It was a storybook ending for a team no one gravitated to ahead of the finals.
While the top two jockeyed for position, two-time FNCS Champion Tai “GUILD TaySon” Starčič and Jérémy “Grizi 4zr” Dang and Nathan “nayte” Berquignol settled into third after an impressive run on day two. They usurped tournament favorites GUILD Flikk, GUILD Anas and GAMMA Th0masHD and grabbed the last automatic qualifier spot. The Season 5 Champions — Hen, JannisZ and chapix — struggled with spawn fights on day two and ultimately landed in eighth place.

NA East – Reverse2k, Deyy and Mero Become the Two-Time Champs
1st FNCS GRAND CHAMPIONS $150,000!!!! @MeroFN @DeyyFN pic.twitter.com/KmmOcMRasu
— ENDLESS Reverse2k (@Reverse2k) May 31, 2021
The NA East region refused to slow down and continued what has been perhaps the best Fortnite Champion Series event to date with a stellar conclusion. Josh “TSM Commandment” Roach, FaZe Cented and Benjamin “NRG Edgey” Peterson sat on the lead after six with full intentions of breaking their runner-up curse. However, the ENDL8SS trio of Reverse2k, Mero and Deyy snatched their second Axe of Champions in the last three seasons with a clutch final match.
History repeated itself as Reverse2k, Mero and Deyy put forth a performance of the ages with an unfathomable number of eliminations and consistent placement points. With echoes of Season 4, these three players did not even need a Victory Royale to win it all. Instead, 77 eliminations and an average placement of 8.17 proved enough to secure Reverse2k, Mero and Deyy another Axe of Champions and $150K USD to split. Reverse called his shot pre-tournament and delivered on his promises.
Commandment, Cented and Edgey finished in second place for the third straight FNCS. While it was an outstanding achievement, the three NA East powerhouses fell marginally short of their expectations. An untimely exit in the final match opened the door for the new champs to reign supreme. Nonetheless, Commandment, Cented and Edgey earned 361 points, including 55 eliminations and two Victory Royales. They’ll have another chance to break their runner-up curse in Chapter 2 – Season 7.
The leaderboard narrowed after first and second place, with four teams in striking distance of the ultra-important bronze position. It was Rocco “TrainH Saf” Morales, “Liquid STRETCH” and C9 Avery that finished second in the match 12 to take third overall. NA East did not disappoint whatsoever and there’s no telling what could occur next season. Here’s a look at the final leaderboard:
- 1st: ENDL8SS DEYYSIA, endless mero11, ENDLESS Reverse – 372 points – $150,000 / $50,000 each
- 2nd: TSM Cоmadon, FaZe Cented, NRG Edgey – 361 points – $105,000 / $35,000 each

The newly acquired Team New Age trio of Muz, looter and Speedy were too much for their Oceania opponents to contain. Despite trailing at the end of day one, the Season 5 Champions rallied back with some astounding stats. Their performance on day two included two Victory Royales and 46 eliminations, allowing them to reach an unfathomable 418 points. Muz, looter and Speedy collected another Axe of Champions and will venture to NA East to attempt the unthinkable; claim an FNCS title in a different region.
The three players split $22.5K and will represent Australia in arguably the second-most challenging scene. CLR Zedox, GLM sio and overt bathan finished runner-up after leading to end day one. Their tournament effort produced four Victory Royales. Oceania’s landscape will change significantly next season. The other top teams hope to claim the throne once the champions leave.

The always underrated Middle East region produced a two-time FNCS Champion as Season 4 winners vagnaR, KINGS I4XPRO and TU Dexefite experienced the best kind of deja vu.
