Biography
Besides being a Fortnite streamer, Loco is also an esports competitor who participates in Fortnite events. In the five tournaments he has played in, he has earned $34,475.[2] He became part of Team SoloMid (TSM), a gaming organization, in February 2018, about six months after he started playing Fortnite.[3] Loco credits dakotaz for bringing him into the game competitively. He said he was invited to the Fortnite invitational tournament after going on a 27 game winning streak with dakotaz.[4]
In 2018, Loco along with other streamers such as Jay "sinatraa" Won, Avery "Avxry" Lopriore and Kristen "KittyPlays" Valnicek were banned for 24 hours due to a DMCA takedown for playing a Juice WRLD song.[5]
Loco took a hiatus in 2019 due to possible spine-related health issues and lung collapse.[3][6] He stated that he had benefited from taking a break and would return full time in 2020, saying he will "be in 100% full swing of things" and thanked his viewers for their patience.[1]
Achievements
Since July 12, 2018, Loco has earned 8,000+ kills in Fortnite.[7] At one point, he had the most kills in the "Teams of 20 game mode", with 39 kills, which was eventually beaten by another streamer.[8]
