Fortnite returns as fastest growing Twitch Channel \u2013 Full List Epic Games\/TwitchFortnite has become the fastest-growing channel on Twitch, thanks largely to their black hole event that saw the end of Season X and brought in Fortnite Chapter 2. In the latter part of 2019, Fortnite had started to placate (at least by their standards) in terms of their follower growth, with streamers such as Nicholas \u2018NickEh30\u2019 Amyoony, Amouranth, and Kyle \u2018Bugha\u2019 Giersdorf and suspicious anomaly \u2018AnimeFan_30\u2019 growing fastest in September. Often you\u2019ll see channels that aren\u2019t necessarily the most followed at the top of the fastest-growing channels, simply because they already have so many followers as it is, especially with how much Fortnite blew up on Twitch in the last couple of years. However, with the launch of Fortnite Chapter 2, the official Fortnite Twitch channel has seen tremendous growth in October, seeing an increase of more than 450,000 new followers according to TwitchMetrics.net. Millions tuned in on Sunday, October 13 to watch the \u2018black hole\u2019 appear for \u2018The End\u2019 event \u2013 which even appeared to crash Twitch itself due to the influx of viewers. The competition between Fortnite and it\u2019s nearest competition is pretty close, though: Spanish Fortnite streamer TheGrefg has amassed just over 440,000 new followers this month, whilst fellow Spanish variety streamer auronplay is in third place with nearly 270,000 new followers on the platform. Rounding out the most followed Twitch channels in October are well-known names such as Riot Games and Ali \u2018SypherPK\u2019 Hassan, as well as streamers more popular across the world such as Spanish variety streamer Rubius. Channels such as Tfue\u2019s, shroud\u2019s and Bugha\u2019s somehow manage to keep picking up masses of followers despite their huge following already, a testament to their consistency and how entertaining they are. Fortnite has definitely seen somewhat of a revival thanks to the launch of Chapter 2, with some fans becoming alienated from the game in the final seasons of what is now being referred to as Chapter 1. Most interesting is how many of these followers would have gone to the Fortnite Twitch channel during the black hole event, which saw thousands of players tune in to watch a black hole on their screen \u2013 an event that lasted for over 36 hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
