Competitive Fortnite players taking part in the next Ranked Cup have the chance to unlock the Elite Daigo skin.

The Elite Daigo skin has been met with excitement from the Fortnite community, but it could be quite difficult to unlock the cosmetic.

The grind toward unlocking the Elite Daigo skin will begin on Saturday, January 10th. Fortnite Ranked Cups are time-limited tournaments where players from the same rank must compete in a three-hour session to place the highest on a leaderboard. The top players within that time limit will earn special prizes, like the Elite Daigo skin.

How to Unlock the Elite Daigo skin

Gamers were initially excited when they saw the award for the upcoming Ranked Cup. However, some players quickly pointed out that the requirements are quite difficult, even more than usual.

To get the Elite Daigo skin, players must place in the Top 2 in Elite, the third-highest rank. This is not a condition that everyone can meet over the weekend. The bundle is even tougher to unlock, requiring players to have qualified for the Reload Elite Series Heats.

The Ranked Cup rewards have been a topic of discussion for quite some time now in the Fortnite community, with many frustrated at how difficult it is to get the skins.

However, players that don’t think they’ll place in the Top 2 in Elite will likely have the chance to purchase the Elite Daigo skin in the Item Shop later on. Most Elite skins have hit the Shop in the past, so there’s definitely a chance to pay for Elite Daigo if you miss this opportunity.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
