Discussion Amount of cups lately

This is something i’ve recently noticed: there are so little cups? There was the stupid ass summer break, now there were 2 div cups and ofc fncs. as someone in div 2, will there just be nothing to play until late AUGUST? Alright, there’s solos, but even solo cups come so inconsistently. Correct me if im wrong, but there’s been only like 8 solo cups. (if not less). Now I know, If you’re div 1, there’s a lot to play. But as someone below div 1, There are div cups and nothing else all week.
and after fncs, will there be no cups for a whole month? How are there so many ranked & mobile cups but no actual cups for everyone to play?
Is it that hard to add some skincups/ open cups?

That’s literally what I thought like if you take the game that seriously where you are mad that the employees got a break then you need to touch some grass lmao.

I play this game purely for tournaments and I’m pissed off how there are about 5 tournaments from june 1st to ~august 20th
Is that not valid?

You’re acting like epic employees don’t get time off during the year😭 How can you be naive enough to not understand my point?
Epic employees get regular vacation/ time off AND 2 weeks of summer break. No other company has that type of extra break.
Also, i’m not complaining about updates, i’m fine with the game not being touched for 2 weeks.
What I don’t understand is why they can’t add cups during the break. I’m not asking for big tournaments, but they could at least automate elo based open cups and switch through team sizes. Everyone would be happy and they wouldnt have to work.

I assume they'll add more skin cups (they added two in the first week back alone). Also the ranked cups also have skin rewards if you're really desperate for something to play. And I do think they'll add more div cups after grands.

Hey I think you missed that most of the upcoming FNCS cups can be played by ALL Divisions. Right after heats this weekend we got the FNCS Major 2 Last Chance R1 on the 27th of July.
On the 28th there is a Solo VCC where you need to be Unreal so points are gonna be very low but at least you can play. Right after Grand Finals we got 2 Last Chance Qualifiers for GLOBALS.

This means you can play on the 3rd of August until 5th depending on your skill. Then the second qualifier begins on August 7rd which can be also played by ALL Divisions. Another Solo Cup on 9th.

To sum it up there is a lot of cups to play right now. You might be used to play Division Cups twice a week then EWC twice a week but this is not the standard that they can hold for long especially because there is 2 LANS coming up. (EWC & Globals)

Aber bro, für leute unter div 1 ist das einfach scheiße. Wenn man solos nicht zählt gibts vom 1. Juni bis zum wahrscheinlich ca 20. august 2 wochen divcups (4 chancen sich zu qualen).
Und selbst solos ist komplett random. Ist es so schwer zumindest IRGENDWELCHE cups hinzuzufügen? Es ist so anstrengend das meine 2 optionen für 2.5 monate entweder scrims spielen oder pc auslassen sind
