Unfortunately, predatory eSports contracts are pretty common. You take young people who are eager to use their skills to impress the world and earn a good chunk of change as pro-gamers, and pair them with corporate sponsors that are also eager to make a good sum of money, and sometimes these players get burned.

Fortnite player Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney recently learned this unpleasant lesson and as a result, filed suit to void his contract with eSports team FaZe Clan, Inc. His legal battle is bringing much needed attention to the troubling trend of exploitative eSports contracts.
