Earlier this year, Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney filled a lawsuit against Faze Clan<\/a>, alleging that the esports organisation had burdened him with an \u201coppressive, onerous, and one-sided\u201d contract. Faze disputed many of the details in that suit, and now the organisation is taking legal action against Tfue for breach of contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faze\u2019s lawsuit alleges that Tfue is still under contract until 2021, and that his comments about the organisation violate a non-disparagement clause in that agreement. According to a report from TMZ<\/a>, Faze seeks its share in Tfue\u2019s earnings, and to prevent him from sharing confidential information about the company. The suit has been filed in a New York federal court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThough a rookie athlete, Tenney was an adult when he signed his contract,\u201d Faze says. \u201cAn initial rookie contract is a risk that the organization takes; most young players\u2019 young careers never take off.\u201d Faze also reiterates earlier public statements that it took only $60,000 of Tfue\u2019s millions in earnings, and that the group offered Tfue a seven-figure salary<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The legal dispute has seen suggestions that Tfue plans to start his own esports organisation, but he says he\u2019s \u201ctoo stupid\u201d to do<\/a> so and intends to serve \u201cjustice to the esports community.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this year, gaming attorney Ryan Morrison told us of Tfue\u2019s lawsuit<\/a>that \u201cthis is the event the industry has known will come but has yet to see: a player powerful and popular enough calling out the bad practices of the industry at large.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
