Talented Fortnite streamer Tyler "Ninja" Belvins had a performance to remember in the second edition of the KEEMSTAR Friday Fortnite Tournament against FaZe Clan in the losers bracket.
The second edition of the Friday Fortnite Tournament hosted by YouTuber Daniel "KEEMSTAR" Keem and UMG is currently taking place, and it has seen some incredible performances from a multitude of the high profile content creators from Twitch and YouTube who have competed for the $10,000 grand prize. One of these jaw dropping performances in the KEEMSTAR Fortnite Tournament was delivered by Luminosity Gaming Twitch streamer Tyler "Ninja" Belvins, who many consider to be the very best Fortnite Battle Royale player in the world.
The game that had the jaws of the hundreds of thousands of viewers watching came against the duo of FaZe Clan Fortnite players TFUE and Dennis "Cloakzy" Lepore in round 6 of the losers bracket of the KEEMSTAR Tournament. Playing with Team EnVyUs Fortnite player KingRichard, Ninja was facing a 1-0 match disadvantage to FaZe Clan's TFUE and Cloakzy. Needing a high kill game to tie the series and force a third match in their KEEMSTAR Tournament matchup, Ninja and KingRichard faced a difficult challenge.

With KingRichard being eliminated early in the match, Ninja proceeded to show the world why he is one of the very best players that Fortnite has to offer, as the popular streamer went on to collect 23 kills, a large amount of them coming from excellent use of the light machine gun, to tie the kill total of the FaZe Clan duo to force a game three and keep himself and KingRichard in the running to collect the KEEMSTAR Tournament championship. However, TFUE and Cloackzy were able to give FaZe Clan the victory in the third game to move on and eliminate Ninja and KingRichard from the KEEMSTAR Fortnite Tournament.
Even with the loss, Ninja gave everyone watching a performance that they are sure to not forget for a very long time.
