The Apex Legends esports scene is just getting started, but some players are already separating themselves from the deck with the total amount of prize money they've collected so far.
Apex Legends exploded on the battle royale scene when it was released on February 4, garnering millions of players in a matter of weeks. The action sequence that starts with a typical shootout makes the game an ideal candidate for a long-term esports game. While there have only been a handful of big money events so far, young phenom Colby 'dizzy' Meadows and his NRG teammate Richard 'KingRichard' Nelson had some of the most notable successes in the early days of esports.
Both have cashed in all three Code Red tournaments as well as Twitch's North American Rivals: Apex Legends Challenge and Twitch Rivals Apex Legends Rematch Challenge. Their prolific success is usually accompanied by a changing third player, such as popular streamer Tyler Ninja 'Blevins' or Lucas 'Mendokusai' Hokansson.
So far, Dizzy has been able to cash in on the early popularity of the Respawn Entertainment title, earning $21. Even at such a young age, Dizzy has the talent to consistently stay on top with KingRichard in tow, earning $416,67.
NRG players take the top two spots for the top players, while a slight drop in third place with a $16.733.33 Mendo prize win. There is a huge difference in earnings from now on, with fourth Jordan 'HusKers' Thomas earning $10.
The latest big name in the battle royale scene hasn't even scratched the surface of its potential. Although there is significant inequality in the early stages of events, it is only a matter of time before tournaments gain more participants and cash rewards. The full list of the top 20, according to esportsearnings.com, can be found below. The list will be updated to reflect the latest highest earnings after each major tournament.
