Before Fortnite came along and took over Twitch in 2018, the streaming landscape looked a lot different. Since then it has grown exponentially, with many of the internet’s biggest names coming from a Twitch streaming background.
While some broadcasters are closely tied to a single game, like Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney was with Fortnite for some time, others have built up followings on what’s known as ‘variety’ streaming. Others attract fans thanks to their skill-based content, sometimes doubling as professional players.
