1. Official EWC Final Points Table
The point distribution in the EWC heavily favored consistent placements over raw elimination counts.
| Rank | Player / Duo | Placement Points | Elim Points | Total Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🏆 1st | Falcons (Mero & Cooper) | 215 | 85 | 300 |
| 2nd | Karmine Corp (Swizzy & Veno) | 190 | 102 | 292 |
| 3rd | Guild (TaySon & Anas) | 175 | 90 | 265 |
| 4th | Dignitas (Bugha & Peterbot) | 140 | 115 | 255 |
| 5th | Exceed (Cold & Acorn) | 120 | 80 | 200 |
2. Tournament Fallouts & What to Watch
The biggest fallout from the EWC Paris event is the complete failure of the “W-Key” hyper-aggressive strategy. Teams like Dignitas secured the highest elimination points in the entire lobby, but because they constantly took mid-game fights, they routinely died outside the top 10, completely ruining their overall placement multiplier.
Going into the next FNCS major, keep a close eye on the Controller vs Keyboard/Mouse dynamic. The winning duo utilized a hybrid input strategy, allowing the controller player to secure close-range SMG eliminations while the KBM player focused entirely on tunneling and tarping materials in the final moving zones.

🛡️ EXPERT COMMENTS: THE RIGHT STRATEGY
What is the correct way to play the current Fortnite endgame meta?
The champions proved that High-Ground Retakes are no longer the optimal play in a 50-man moving zone. The right strategy is the “Low-Ground Heal-Off.” By preserving mobility items (like Shockwave Grenades) and flooding the bottom layer with metal builds, the winning team forced their opponents on the high ground to burn through their material caps. Instead of fighting for height, the optimal strategy is to stay directly below the chaos, conserve white-health healing items, and simply outlive the storm damage.
