Turner "Tfue" Tenney, one of the best professional players in the world, continues his online sports organization, the FaZe clan, for unfair business practices and breach of contract.
In a copy of the lawsuit filed by the Hollywood Reporter, Tenney says the FaZe clan has received 80% of its sponsored advertising and advertising revenue, as well as 50% of its revenue. ,
"The objective of the FaZe clan is essentially to" own "Tenney and other content creators / streamers and professional players," the lawsuit says. "The FaZe clan, which is not a licensed art agency, is using targeted young artists like Tenney, with long – term, repressive, sophisticated contracts that allow the FaZe clan to" own "the art. artist himself and his career.

He is the third most popular player on Twitch with six million followers, just behind Tyler "Ninja" Blevins and Michael "Shroud" Grzesiek. Like other professional players, Tenney relies on sponsorship deals, paid advertising, viewer subscriptions, and cash donations as long as he does not attend tournaments.
The FaZe clan manages a number of popular teams such as Youtuber and E-Sport, as well as Fortnite in many other games.
Tenney signed a six-month contract with the FaZe clan in April 2018, which was later extended to 36 months. Tenney's YouTube channel had approximately 150,000 subscribers in May 2018. That number rose to more than ten million last year thanks to the promotion of the FaZe clan.
