About Clix
Before fame
Raised in Connecticut, Cody Conrod developed an interest in video games early in childhood, often playing at home and visiting his brother's room to play. He has recalled that his parents initially limited his screen time and could not afford a high-performance gaming setup.
As he became serious about Fortnite, his father helped him obtain a more powerful computer through an agreement to repay its cost. Conrod later earned enough money through competitive gaming to fulfill that agreement.
His major breakthrough came in 2019, when he qualified for both the solo and duo competitions at the Fortnite World Cup. He competed alongside Sceptic in duos. Balancing school and high-level competition became difficult, and his parents eventually supported his decision to leave conventional classroom schooling during eighth grade. He pursued professional gaming and livestreaming while still a teenager.
