Follow Us
Owing to the Coronavirus pandemic, online platforms of entertainment like YouTube and Twitch witnessed a sudden surge in their user base. Several new creators made a name for themselves during nationwide lockdowns, and prominent ones like Tfue, xQc, Pokimane and Shroud have become bigger than ever.
Back in the day, Turner “Tfue” Tenney rose to prominence by playing Fortnite. He then quit playing the game in 2020, claiming that he’s burned out. This wasn’t an enormous setback for Tfue’s streaming career because he had already solidified his place as one of the most entertaining streamers on Twitch. He now plays a wide range of games and avoids sticking to a single game for too long.
Tfue recently surpassed 10 million followers on Twitch to become the second-most followed streamer on the platform. He was playing Minecraft when it happened and chugged two consecutive beers on stream to celebrate it.

At the moment, Tfue only lags Tyler “Ninja” Blevins, who is comfortably sitting at the top with over 16 million followers on Twitch. Just like Tfue, Ninja also owes his success to Epic Games’ battle royale.
It is worth noting that Tfue and Ninja are the only Twitch streamers to cross 10 million followers. With over 8.9 million followers, even Shroud will have to wait longer to complete this glorious achievement.
