Over Christmas, the professional esports brand known as FaZe Clan utterly combusted. Influencers walked out, debt was piling up, and contracts were being rejected. It’s getting messier by the moment, and no aspect is messier than the fallout between Banks and streamer PlaqueBoyMax.

The former head of the Memphis-based Evolve Bank has pleaded guilty to his child pornography charges, according to his lawyer.
Attorney Blake Ballin says Robert “Bob” Hartheimer pleaded guilty to attempting to produce child pornography and coercion and enticement of a minor during a plea hearing Monday.
His sentencing is set for April 3.
Hartheimer could face 15 to 30 years in prison on the pornography charge, but prior qualifying convictions could expose him to a life sentence.
He also faces 10 years to life on the coercion-and-enticement charge.
A woman has been charged with perverting the course of justice after allegedly making up false claims of sexual abuse.
Esther Baker, 43, faces four counts of the offence after an investigation into organised child sexual abuse, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said.
Baker, of West Derby, Liverpool, is expected to appear at Liverpool and Knowsley Magistrates' Court on 14 January.
Malcolm McHaffie, from the CPS, said it decided to prosecute her after working with Staffordshire Police, which carried out the investigation into Baker.
"These charges are brought following an extensive investigation into the claims made by the defendant in the original investigation into alleged organised child sexual abuse by public figures," he added.
"Any decision to prosecute someone who has made sexual abuse allegations is not taken lightly and is only pursued where we believe that there is sufficient evidence to prove that the allegations are false, that they were maliciously made, and that it is in the public interest to prosecute."
