Tfue addressed the rumor during an episode of the Konkrete podcast on May 29, where he claimed that he\u2019d never mentioned wanting to start his own organization and wouldn\u2019t have the time to, even if he did. \u201cI never said that once,\u201d Tfue said of the matter. \u201cHell no, I don\u2019t have time to run a company. I\u2019m too stupid, dude. I can\u2019t even read a contract, what makes you think I can run an esports organization?\u201d [Timestamp: 24:40 for mobile viewers] Tfue likewise spoke out on the drama surrounding his \u201coppressive\u201d contract with FaZe, calling himself a \u201ccomplete and total fucking dumbass\u201d for signing the agreement while simultaneously arguing that he shouldn\u2019t have been given \u201can illegal contract to begin with.\u201d \u201cWhether you\u2019re in the music industry or in the gaming industry, you need your own lawyer,\u201d Tfue advised. \u201cYou need somebody to watch your back. Even if you don\u2019t have a lot of money, I think it\u2019s worth it to burn a little bit for some legal advice.\u201d Tfue is taking legal action against FaZe for an \u201coppressive\u201d contract with the org.600https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BrfomlqnA90\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Tfue\u2019s contract was found to have major splits in favor of FaZe, with the org getting 80% of brand deals brought in by themselves and 50% of appearance fees, in-game merchandise, and brand deals brought in by Tfue \u2013 prompting him to take legal action against the esports giant.

The gaming pro\u2019s subsequent lawsuit made waves across the internet, with even the likes of YouTube king Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg speaking out on the matter, confused as to why FaZe won\u2019t simply release Tfue from the contract in wake of the drama. \u201cTfue clearly wants nothing to do with FaZe Clan, so what kind of relationship are you preserving,\u201d Kjellberg speculated. \u201cThe culture and the relationship of gaming in general if they drop him would be hurt, what the fuck are you talking about? That culture is ruined because you didn\u2019t drop him.\u201d [Timestamp: 2:02 for mobile viewers.] Tfue\u2019s lawsuit has appeared to ruin his relationship with FaZe co-owner Ricky Banks, who had harsh words on the subject after hearing news of the lawsuit on the outset.
