The American Twitch streamer Cody “Clix” Conrod gifted a fan a PC for playing Fortnite and likely started the boy’s career in e-sports. The fan’s previous journey, however, was already marked by difficulties.
Who is it about? Clix is a Twitch streamer who mainly plays Fortnite. He has already won several Fortnite competitions and was the first to reach the rank Unreal
in the game – the highest rank in the ranked mode.
He regularly showcases his skills in the game on his Twitch channel and has earned a lot of money from it. Clix also plays with his fans frequently. In December 2024, he played with 14-year-old boy Josh Reyli.
In a 1v1 match, Josh had to defeat Clix in a maximum of 5 rounds to receive a PC from the Twitch streamer. The boy won against him, playing on console, and Clix was impressed by Josh’s skills.

Josh starts e-sports career: After Josh received the PC in January 2025, he switched from console to PC and honed his skills in Fortnite. He regularly participated in FNCS tournaments.
Josh Reyli and his team narrowly missed qualifying for Major 1, but he was able to make it to the Grand Finals of Major 2 with another team. There they placed 23rd out of 33.
However, the young career of Josh Reyli took a hit here. In the rivalry with a rival team led by player Avivve, unfair means were allegedly used.
It is said that Avivve’s team, which was all over 20 years old – while Josh and his teammates are around 14 years old – allegedly began to harass and threaten the young team. Private and personal information about Josh and his members was supposedly doxxed online.
Clix, who was following Josh’s endeavors, reacted to the revelations and sharply criticized Avivve’s behavior.
14-year-old can qualify: Despite the harassment, there was a happy ending for Josh. Together with his team, he was able to qualify for the FNCS Grand Finals. During the live broadcast of the event, Clix cheered on his protégé.
Initially, Josh and his team placed 27th but then managed to climb to 5th place and ultimately finished in 12th place overall. On Instagram, Clix congratulated Josh, saying: “Love to see it”.
Although the efforts were not enough for the Globals 2025, Josh seems to be on a good path regarding his e-sports career. He may soon follow in the footsteps of a boy who already dropped out of school for his Fortnite career: What happened to the 15-year-old whom Mom took out of school to give him more time for Fortnite?
