FlickzFPS was started in 2018 as a passion project to connect with the gaming community and share my love for playing games while I was in high-school. Through this channel I was able to build a thriving community centered around various games through engaging content, gameplay highlights, and interactive sessions where viewers could join in on the fun. I established and grew FlickzFPS to over 7,300 followers and over 50,000 unique channel views. This allowed me to monetize my content and turn the channel from a hobby into a profitable venture. Through interactive content, consistent communication, and community-focused activities like giveaways and subscriber games, I fostered a loyal, diverse audience that kept viewers returning and strengthened engagement.
Collaborating with some of the top streamers and YouTubers in the industry helped my channel gain traction, and participating in semi-professional tournaments elevated my visibility and credibility. I became one of the largest streamers in my area, recognized for both my gameplay and commitment to the community. Additionally, I was instrumental in developing East Coast Scrims, an early professional Fortnite tournament community that grew to over 80,000 members, creating a competitive environment for players and extending the channel's impact within the gaming industry.
