BlackoutZ

Patrick “BlackoutZ” Garcia Da Silva is a Brazilian professional eSports player currently playing Fortnite for Cloud 9. The American organization acquired BlackoutZ alongside fellow Brazilian Fortnite professionals, drakoNz and Nicks, in July 2019 after Brazilian team W7M Gaming shuttered its Fortnite division. Garcia is originally from São Paulo, Brazil, and started playing Fortnite around two years ago, rapidly rising to the top of the Brazilian scene. BlackoutZ currently has over half a million subscribers on his YouTube channel and over 170,000 followers on Twitch. BlackoutZ streams regularly offering top-level play to a primarily Brazilian audience. The Brazilian pro has over 2400 wins to his name and a staggering 45,000 kills, giving him a K/D of 11.70. His win rate stands at a respectable 38.67% – an impressive number for the battle royale format. BlackoutZ is often found playing duos with Cloud 9 teammate drakoNz, forming a formidable team as exemplified in countless Champion Series wins. The two have decided to branch out into trios and squad-based matches for 2020. A regular fixture in Fortnite events, BlackoutZ boasts tops placings in the Brazilian Fortnite Champion Series, Friday Nite Fortnite, Platform Solo Cash Cup, Champion’s Trios Cash Cup South America, and Luxe Cup South America.
