Jelty might be the fastest growing Fortnite streamer

Jelty's Fortnite Beginnings

Currently, Jelty is 19 years old, but he got his start on console when he was a handful of years younger. Of course, he eventually switched over to PC and that is when his rise to stardom truly started.

Jelty began proving himself on Fortnite Island with awesome plays, incredible victories and YouTube uploads that garnered attention. It was what followed that saw his name start making rounds in the community.

Jelty had set his sights on the biggest and best in Fortnite. He would hunt down some of the most popular streamers, including Daequan and Nickmercs, live on stream in order to eliminate them and have his name show up on their end.

This got a lot of attention from both sides, some excited to see his thrill-seeking ways and others labeling him a stream sniper. Regardless, his goal was being met. The Fortnite world started knowing his name.

Competing in Tournaments

Jelty soon realized that his Fortnite aspirations would need to be adjusted. This is when he decided to start competing in numerous different tournaments, showing he is more than the alleged stream sniper.

This saw Jelty finally join an organization that would give him their support in his competitive career. He joined Timber Esports, a North American organization with a host of Latin American members.

Eventually he was given the nickname the "High Ping Warrior" due to competing with upwards of 80 Ping, placing top 10, and even placing 2nd place in one instance. Nothing is going to stop Jelty in Fortnite.
