The legends

Ninja made Fortnite streaming mainstream. In March 2018 he played with Drake and other celebrities, and the stream set a Twitch record for viewers at the time. He's still one of the most-followed channels on Twitch.

Bugha won the solo final of the first Fortnite World Cup in July 2019, aged 16, and took home $3 million. It was one of the biggest prizes any single esports player had won, and it made Fortnite a serious esport overnight.

Aqua and Nyhrox won the duos final at the same World Cup, and Psalm and EpikWhale finished second and third in solos. That one event is why so many of the all-time top earners date back to 2019.
