Turner Ellis Tenney (Tfue)

Turner Ellis Tenney (Tfue) (born January 2, 1998), better known by his online alias Tfue, is an American streamer and esports player, born in Florida, best known for playing Fortnite. He has gained most of his success playing Fortnite, as he is best known as "The Best Player in the World". Turner suffers from depression, which lead to a hiatus that happened around September 2019.

On June 8, 2018, Turner and his friends Nick Eh 30, ONE_shot_GURL, and Cloakzy, once set a PC world record with the most squad kills ever of 53

He is regarding as one of the best players on Fortnite as he has won many tournaments including most recently the SuperGames Charity Tournament, in which two streamers teamed up with two professional athletes to compete as a four-man squad against 19 other squads.

Turner is a member and sibling of the JOOGSQUAD and had done a lot of collaborative videos on the channel containing trampoline stunts, surfing, scooters, and skateboarding before he was more into gaming as much as he does now.

After a while, he then did a lot of cliff and bridge jumping, which he successfully did.

Turner started off his own YouTube channel and Twitch channel as a Call of Duty and Destiny YouTuber / Streamer. He has also done multiple how-to videos and commentary videos. In late 2016, Turner moved on to H1Z1 and has done multiple compilations of his best moments. Turner then started playing PUBG a few months after its release. Turner only had 70,000 subscribers before getting success after being invited to FaZe on April 30, 2018. FaZe Tfue Twitch and YouTube both blew up at an exponential rate ever since joining FaZe. However, Turner left FaZe on May 20, 2019 due to FaZe limiting his ability to pursue his career.

Personal life & Career

Tfue transitioned to Fortnite Battle Royale as it was quickly exploding in popularity.

Tenney later joined FaZe Clan, a professional esports organization, on April 30, 2018.

Tenney is from Indian Rocks Beach, Florida.

Turner got Hacked!

On August 7, 2018, Turner's media (Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook) was hacked. His Twitter name was changed to 'FaZe Gurv' and the profile picture was a mysterious man. There were also tweets insulting other YouTubers and Fortnite Streamers, mainly towards Keemstar, Ninja and Myth. It also showed a Direct Message from Turner and FaZe Kay, which contained private messages that were also mentioning FaZe Banks. The YouTube account featured a video advertising @ItzSatoshi and @Wtflolner and the hackers spanking each other. On the @Wtfloln er Twitter account, it 'revealed' Turner's password which was mainly criticizing Myth saying, "Tfue's password is MythIsAFaggotWhoCampsInOneByOnesAllGame". The only problem for logging in was, Email was stayed blocked by the hackers, possible 2-step verification, and possible phone verification. And on Turner's Twitch, it contained Fortnite gameplay by hackers, and was on PlayStation 4. Jack Tenney, Turner's brother, member of the JOOGSQUAD, did comment on Turner's latest video containing Turner and Ninja playing together, and mentioned that Turner was hacked and is now trying to get Turner's social's back and to also make sure the hacking never happens again.

On August 14, 2018, Turner got his YouTube account back, and had changed it back to his current profile picture, but had removed 'FaZe' off his name.

He then made a video explaining the situation to those who are un-aware, and said they had a long call with AT&T.

Account Deleted

On August 23, 2018, Turner's YouTube channel had been closed by a hacker, which Turner was hacked not long ago before.

On the same day, his Twitch was suspended once more due to harassment.

People had claimed that Turner did not harass anyone, but his chat was.

Turner had announced on Twitter about his YouTube account and his Twitch channel and said there will be more information later to come.

Another Twitch.tv streamer, Ninja, had said his YouTube account will be back later and his Twitch is not a permanent ban.

Restored

On September 5, 2018, Turner's YouTube channel and Twitch account were reinstated.

He became the most viewed streamer on that day, surpassing Ninja and ironically made all the other Fortnite streamers lose viewers to watch Turner.

Controversies

H1Z1 World Record

Turner once uploaded a video called, "40 kill solo game (King of the hill)", and he was placed 6th.

People have been saying that it was Set-up to be filled with Stream Snipers letting Turner get the kills, without actually playing against each other most of the time.

The video does have a high dislike ratio but still does have more likes.

Banned from Twitch

On May 17, 2018, Turner was banned from Twitch for saying a racial slur.

Turner made a video explaining the whole situation.

Turner said he went to Tilted Towers and saw one person with a character having dark skin.

Turner said "Where is this coon?" and was thought to be racial according to his fans and Twitch themselves.

However, the person's skin was from a Twitch Prime pack with dark outfits, not dark skin.

Turner has apologized about the situation.

However, the next day after being banned from Twitch, Turner's ban was reduced from 30 days to 7 days, meaning he was available on Twitch again by May 24, 2018.

He started streaming again there and still streams now.

Fortnite Account Banned

Coincidently, one month after Turner's ban on Twitch, Turner's Fortnite account was permanently banned on June 22, 2018, due to selling accounts with rare outfits, which was shown on Twitter by him asking for outfits/accounts. Many people thought it was due to wallhacking, where you place a window and you can successfully go through it on the other side from the window. It was found that it wasn't the case. Turner did create a new account called, "Not Tfue" with no outfits. He said that he doesn't care about skins and/or is already used to it, so he played with only a recruiter skin, which people call it a "default" or "no skin".

Suing FaZe Clan

On May 20, 2019, Turner sued FaZe for allegedly limiting his ability to pursue his career.

This is a violation of the California Law; a state FaZe house takes in.

Turner says he's missing out on opportunities because of FaZe Clan's illegal activity in connection with a deal he signed in April 2018, keeping only 20% of the revenue from any branded videos that are published on Twitch, YouTube or social media alongside half of his revenue from touring and appearances.

Turner also says FaZe Clan pressured him to live in one of its homes in the Hollywood Hills with other young YouTubers, where he says he was given alcohol before legal age (21 years old) and encouraged to illegally gamble. Turner also decided to leave FaZe Clan the same day on his own will so he can pursue his career on his full control.
