Mongraal is another flashy player from the European scene. He plays Fortnite for FaZe Clan and is very entertaining to watch.

Zayt is the first North American player to make it last. Truly, Fortnite's European scene is becoming very strong, but do not forgot about the American scene. Zayt is another NRG player who is truly fun to watch. Zayt is not afraid to speak his mind and back it up with actions on the Fortnite island. His aggressive playstyle is a spectacle to behold.


#1 – Bugha

By now, everyone knows who Bugha is. While there are other competitive Fortnite players gaining ground on him in terms of popularity, Bugha has one thing they don't. He is the first, and currently only, Fortnite Solos World Cup Champion. Until another is crowned, Bugha may just be automatically considered the best player in the world. Being able to say you are watching the Fortnite World Cup Champion is just cool in its own right.
