Anyone who delves deeper into Fortnite and searches for the best player in the world cannot overlook the well-known streamer Ninja. However, those who think Ninja is the player with the most epic wins are mistaken. In fact, there is another Fortnite: Battle Royale player who has much more impressive statistics on the PC. Svennos could be the best Fortnite player in the world.
Do you remember your first epic win? How was it? Did you build an impressive fortress and take out your enemies from a secure height? Or did you hide in a bush for 15 minutes while your last opponent just happened to sneak by?
Either way – Fortnite: Battle Royale is popular not least because there are many ways to achieve success. However, alongside these planned strategies, there are always random moments that end a match quicker than you’d like.
When looking at these random factors, the statistics of a certain Sven Edelenbosch are all the more impressive. The Dutchman living in Sweden, who also streams on Twitch under the name Svennoss, currently leads the overall ranking of epic wins in solo mode on PC.
With currently 2,320 wins, he has collected 35 more than the well-known streamer Ninja – but required an unbelievable 2,000 games less, namely only about 5,000.
Who is this Svennoss anyway?
As a teenager, Edelenbosch was obsessed with console shooters like Halo or Call of Duty. Only later did Svennoss switch to PC and started playing games like ArmA, H1Z1, or PUBG.
Ultimately, he found a new favorite game in Fortnite. He is even more pleased to be at the top of a game with such a large player base, as he revealed in an interview with PCGamer.
In his games, Svennoss is subject to the same random factors as we are. He has to deal with bad loot or unlucky storm patterns. However, Edelenbosch does not let that discourage him.
This is also reflected in the numbers. In the solo scene alone, Svennoss has an absurdly high win rate of 63%. This means nothing less than that Edelenbosch wins more than every other game. The fact that the player has a K/D of nearly 20 is almost an afterthought.
Upon request, Svennoss also has tips for the average players among us!
The tips from probably the best Fortnite player in the world: Build, build, build!
You have probably heard this frequently, but it is still relevant. Building accounts for “90% of the game,” according to Svennoss.
Anyone who does not know how to take a player out of their fortress or who is generally unable to gain a height advantage should work on that. Those who do not use the building mode to their advantage will find it difficult.
Where should you land?
When asked where Svennoss prefers to land, he names Greasy Grove as his top priority. Depending on the battle bus’s flight path, Salty Springs or Dusty Depot may also be options. According to Svennoss, Dusty Depot is particularly good because shots from all directions can be heard well.

When being overrun by an opponent, you have various options. You can easily build two ramps toward the attacker and confront them – or you build two ramps on the other side and keep the attacker uncertain about your exact position.
Learn ways to outsmart and outmaneuver your opponent. Many players underestimate the fall damage that opposing players can take when the ground is shot out from under them.
Depending on the height of your own fortress, you can easily decide fights in your favor this way. Admittedly – all this is easier said than done. Those who hide anxiously in their bush and watch the last surviving players in an epic standoff may be the last to come up with a brilliant idea.
There is no way around it – without perfect mastery of the building mode, you will be in trouble sooner or later, especially since the average skill level of players does not decrease with increasing experience points.
And how does it look on consoles?
Svennoss undoubtedly dominates the charts on PC. But capable players are also out there on consoles. The well-known streamer AlexRamiGaming leads on PlayStation 4 with a fantastic 2,900 wins. However, his win rate lags behind that of Svennoss.
After all, AlexRamiGaming needed nearly 1,500 matches more for this number of wins. On Xbox One, the Italian player Terry 5L dominates with 2,700 wins. Terry 5L also needed only about 4,700 games for this number.
However, it is difficult to compare Terry 5L with Svennoss. Unlike Edelenbosch, Terry plays almost exclusively the team mode for 4 players.
