During his time in esports, Captain Chapix played for Valhalla Vikings and Overtime EU, and he’s also done well for other organizations.

54. Flikk

Currently plying his trade with Guild, Flikk has played and won the competition with many Esports teams since the world cup in 2019. Starting his run with Team Atlantis, then making his way to Legends and Wave sport, eventually, he settled with Guild esports. He is one of the most popular streamers as a PRO player.

He hasn’t won the top spot in the recent esports Fortnite World Cups but has taken second and third spot in the last two of them. That’s quite a brilliant performance if thinking about the amount of competition and pressure in the game. He is a consistent player and regularly plays at high-level competitions.

His streams are fantastic to watch and learn from as he’s someone who has been pretty consistent in competitions where every new year new players occupy the top spot.

53. ANAS

As the third member of Guild Esports’ trios, ThomasHD is not a part of the team. In addition to being on the Rakos eSports team, he has also played for Singularity, Atlantis, and Gamma Gaming.

This most recent trio has been very successful for him, despite moving around a lot after Gamma Gaming. It’s too early to say whether ThomasHD will be a top player in 2021, but his previous performance makes him one to watch. He is considered among the best Fortnite players in the world.

51. MUZ

Muz is a member of team PWR. He has been growing recently by putting in a lot of amazing performances in the competitions. He doesn’t have large followings like other players in this list but is playing and competing against the best of them in the recent cups and winning over several of them.

He has won many cash cups and Fortnite competitions in Oceania since world cup in 2019.

He is a part of the Oceania server that makes up the best trio in the Fortnite community and he is also in top performer in solo events.

He’s one of the new players that you should look after if you’re looking for an exciting new player in the coming years.

50. LOOTER

Another Oceania player is Looter. Muz and SpeedyND are his teammates, and he was formerly a member of PWR. In recent months, he’s dominated the trios events alongside those players. Often time, those active in this region aren’t recognized the same way as those in NA or Europe. It shows, though, that when international events return, things will be more competitive.

We might see Looter abandoning Fortnite as well due to his dissatisfaction with how the OCE scene is going. But hope he keeps playing otherwise we may miss a big and exciting player in him.

49. SpeedyND

SpeedyND is someone to look out for in the future. As of now, he has been part of the big teams in competitions.

Currently, he’s a free agent but might join a team that may use his skills to perform at the top level.

He has played with Warrior ones, Notorious team, and eventually team process. After playing and coming on the top with so many teams he is a player that has the potential to go on playing well for more years but his solo performance hasn’t matched his team performances.

But he’s still a good player and one that we might enjoy watching in gaming tournaments more often.

47. Slackes

Slackes is one of the top players not only in performance but in his antics too. He was suspended by Epic for teaming up with other players in the final weeks of FNCS.

But apart from that, he’s another veteran player in the game that has consistently played at the top level for a ling-time and won a lot of medals to his name.

He was first in the last Fortnite world cup and came fifth in the one before that.

He’s from North America East and has won first place in cash cups and many other competitions. Together with Keys, he achieved 15th rank in the world cup in the duo competition.

He has been improving a lot recently and is someone we may see performing on the top for a long-time.

46. Acorn

In 2021, Acorn is regarded as one of the best Fortnite players and won a recent FNCS competition. The team he has been part of has certainly made an impact along with Slackes recently. To remain one of the top teams in 2021in north america east, they will need to keep these performances up. Since he doesn’t play many solos anymore, despite being prolific in solos and consistently good at them.

45. JAHQ

JAHQ is another professional fortnite player who’s been consistent in all the gaming tournaments he has played.

Jack Jahq Downs is climbing on higher levels recently and is making name for himself by winning major tournaments all over the year.

When in intense situations, his performance improves. In moments that matter, he gets hyper-focused and squeezes out the results that his team needs.

Jack Jahq Downs is definitely one for the future.

44. Bugha 

Bugha has also done well in other tournaments in addition to winning the last Fortnite World Cup. It’ll be the Fortnite players that accomplish these feats in 2021 that will be the best. It was an amazing performance by Bugha at the Fortnite World Cup. He is considered among the best Fortnite players in the world.

Kyle Bugha Giersdorf qualified for the World Cup the first time he tried, so he missed out. It is rare for a game as unpredictable as Fortnite to have a clear winner, but Bugha dominated in the grand finals and won definitively.

Since the World Cup, Bugha hasn’t kept the wins coming so consistently. In spite of the delay, he is still one of the best Fortnite players in the year 2021, despite being the reigning champ.

43. Andilex

Turner Tenney, known on Fortnite as Tfue, is a familiar face at FNCS competitive games and events. He gets roughly 30K daily viewers due to his competitive streaming.

Known for his popularity in Fortnite history, Tfue appears to opt to stick with streaming Fortnite instead of competing in contests and competing in tournaments.

With his popularity so high, he uses it to earn income through streaming and other methods.

The Fortnite World Cup did not qualify Animal for the finals. A few weeks ago, he competed in nearly every week of qualifying.
