Streamers ‘OverpoweredOW’ and ‘Sonii_IRL’ have won the first ever KEEMSTAR Realm Royale Thursday tournament on July 19.
The pair secured the whopping $50,000 grand prize as they placed first overall in the competition’s standings.
The scoring of this Realm Royale Duos tournament is based on placement and kills across ten different matches. Teams receive positive points based on their placement and negative points based on each elimination.
The overall scores from each match are then calculated and added up, and the team with the lowest score after the ten matches wins.
Based on this scoring method, OverpoweredOW and Sonii put in a strong performance, placing first twice and second three times, with an overall kill count of 44.
Despite getting no kills or good placements in their last two matches, the pair still managed to get a score of 34, which was more than good enough to secure the championship.
Huge congratulations to the winners of the first @KEEMSTAR $100,000 Realm Royale tournament.
You both proved that you are the Top Chickens.
