The Katowice Royale 2019 just got over last week and half a million USD was distributed between the top positions. Tfue did not participate in this tournament hence he’s lost the top spot as the highest earning Fortnite player via tournaments. Significant changes have happened in the past week with a lot of new names coming into the mix.
Without further adieu, lets take a look at the top Fortnite players as per the tournament winnings. Don’t forget to bookmark this page, we’ve added the social media links for all the players.

- Total Earnings: $501,525
- Nationality: USA
Timothy Miller A.k.a Ghost Bizzle has officially overtaken Tfue to reach the top spot in total tournament earnings. His appearance and finishes in the Katowice royale 2019 rewarded him with enough prize money to go above Tfue by roughly 8000$. This year is going to be a hot race with Tfue and Bizzle.
2.Tfue
Code “Tfue”
— Tfue (@TTfue) November 7, 2018
- Total Earnings: $493,925
- Nationality: USA
Arguably the best Fortnite player in the planet, Tfue is now second on the list as he missed out on this years’ Katowice Royale. Tfue opted to skip the event in Poland and thus will have to fight Bizzle to get that top spot back. As previously mentioned, the difference is a mere $8k and can change in the next tournament.
3.Cloak

Tfue and cloak can often be spotted playing together both casually and in tournaments.
4. Natehill
I always knew I could be a professional gamer. It just took 6 years to even get a chance at it. For all y'all little people out there, just keep grinding, keep making contacts. Believe in yourself, or no one else will ?

Thomas Mulligan a.k.a 72Hrs is also a part of team Liquid and is just below their highest earner Poach. The competition between 72 hrs and Poach is marginal in terms of competitive earnings. Team Liquid has three solid players up there in the top 10 and all of them compliment each in many ways while playing together. Be sure to follow 72hours on all his social media platforms.

- Total Earnings: $273,264
- Nationality: Nederlands
Mitr0 is the highest earning “non-USA” Fortnite player. He is rated by many the best European player in the competitive circuit. Team Atlantis was quick enough to spot his talent and have signed him onto their team. Mitro is from Nederlands and is very active in appearing for European related esports tournaments. In fact he is the only player in the top 10 list that isn’t from USA. Majority of the Fortnite tournaments are held in USA and to still get your name in the “top 10” is highly commendable.
