Dizzy teamed up with popular Twitch streamers Richard “KingRichard” Nelson and Tyler “Ninja” Blevins to take on the first Apex tournament on Feb. 12. The team, Kings Canyon, secured the win in the tournament’s first day with 420 points, pulling ahead of the competition by a single point. Dizzy held the highest number of kills for the majority of the tournament, although his final kill score is unclear.

The NRG pro formerly played for Mythic and Selfless Gaming in the CS:GO scene before switching over to Apex. Dizzy recently signed with his new team a week after the latest battle royale released and is already setting records under the NRG banners.

The professional Apex player holds the world record for solo kills in the newest battle royale, having amassed 33 total kills in a single game. With only 60 people dropping into a map in each match, that means dizzy killed over half of the competition in his game.
