When does Fortnite Daredevil cup kick-off?

Fortnite's ongoing collaboration with Marvel has brought upon an opportunity for fans to get their hands on the Daredevil skin for free. The Daredevil Cup will be starting on October 14, 2020, though as of now, Epic has not announced at what time the competition will commence. Winning a Daredevil skin is not an easy task as teams need to reach to a top-level in their specific region, however, it will be a free skin and players competing will not have to shell out their V-Bucks for the same.

The real prize of the competition is $1 million which will be announced after four cups. Since the first cup has been named the 'Daredevil Cup' it only implies that the future competitions in the final tournament will be named after different characters. Perhaps the four cups could be named for the four Defenders like Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Daredevil, and Jessica Jones, but there has been no confirmation about the same yet.
