Are you wondering who the best Fortnite streamers are? You’ve come to the right place. The streaming community did not start because of the battle royale game, but Fortnite absolutely helped in the streaming boom, with several of the following leading the way. These are the ones you’re going to want to check out if you’re looking for a new streamer.
2xnowel might not be on most gamers’ radar, but the streamer should be. He is quickly growing and becoming more and more popular, so much so that he’s dominating the growth charts on Twitch. He is up 441,000 followers this month. The next closest? Peterbot, one the top Fortnite players, with an increase of over 58,000. No one is growing quite like 2xnowel, and there’s a good reason for it.
Is Mongraal still the most relevant streamer? Not as much anymore, as he ranks 38th in watch hours this month. However, he remains supremely popular with fans, as he’s still got the fourth-most followers on Twitch, behind Ninja, Clix, and SypherPK, which is a who’s who in this field. Mongraal is also 15th in peak viewership and 17th in average viewership. He’s still got it.
Nikof is easily one of the best streamers out there. Take your pick of stream metrics, and he’s near the top. He’s second in popularity (to the official Fortnite Twitch account, so he might as well be first) with 12,509 average viewers. Nikof is fourth in watch hours. He’s fourth in peak viewership. No matter how you look at it, he’s among the best, and it’s thanks to a great screen presence and incredible skills.

You don’t get to where faxuty is today without being a really good streamer. 1.15 million hours watched in the first few weeks of August alone does not come by accident. He’s a newer streamer to the scene than some others on this list, but he’s still exceptional. Thanks to consistent performances in competitive play, faxuty has built up a devoted community and become one of the best gamers in the world.
Doubling as a legitimate content creator, SypherPK is one of the best media personalities for the game. Even though he’s not as popular as he once was, he has still pulled in almost 230,000 hours from viewers this month. He’s a good player who has a good community to play with, so you could do a lot worse if you’re looking for a streamer to watch. He’s very committed, as he streams and makes content for other platforms all the time.
The game is not inherently for children, but it does skew to a younger audience with bright, vibrant graphics and a lack of blood. It’s also an “elimination,” not a “kill,” for a reason. And Nick Eh 30 has been fantastic at bringing the game to that younger audience. He’s almost comically family-friendly, but he is a good player and a very safe one to watch, even all these years later.
Ninja deserves some credit for practically launching the Fortnite streaming scene. He’s been doing it since virtually the beginning, and doing it better than most. Is he in his prime anymore? Not at all, and he would be the first to admit that, having stopped playing much competitively and playing Zero Build now for his ease. But even still, he ranks ninth in viewership in August, so he’s clearly still a major pull.

MrSavage ranks sixth among all streamers for Fortnite in August with over 600,000 hours. Those are good numbers, proving he deserves a spot on this list. But he’s also just one of the best players out there. He has some unbelievable clips in competitive play, so he might honestly bring a unique angle for viewers in that he’s just that good. He does things others wouldn’t even think of, and you can usually find that on his stream.

For proof of AussieAntics’ status in the streaming world, look no further than his viewer hours. He tops all Fortnite streamers in August with nearly two million hours already. That’s almost 300,000 more than anyone else. He is the face of streaming right now, and he has a strong case as the best one. He’s had some success competitively, too, so he is obviously a great player.

Clix is one of the best players in the world, and he’s one of the top streamers in Fortnite as well. He brings a quality of play that few others do, and it clearly translates to watch time. In August, he ranks second among all streamers for the game with 1.7 million hours from viewers. He competes in a ton of tournaments, so his streams usually bring something different to the table than just standard match play.
