Cented apologizes after leaving FaZe over a clip of him saying a racial slur

The Canadian streamer has had problems with toxicity on stream before, with a year ago. The clip of him saying the word went viral today, but according to the date in the video, he had said those words almost six months ago. FaZe Clan have kicked Fortnite Pro Cented after a clip surfaced of him using the N word.FaZe Clan have kicked Fortnite Pro Cented after a clip surfaced of him using the N word. This is the second FaZe Fortnite player in hot waters after saying the N-word. In 2020, FaZe Dubs was suspended from FaZe after uttering the racial slur, but is still part of the organization. Many on social media have compared both of them already finding it weird that one stayed on while the other had to leave. The alleged clip shows Cented joining a discord call with another Fortnite Pro Hellfire who is live on Twitch. The first thing he said in the way of greeting the other player was the slur. Cented greeted him and he said: "Yo what's up, N****r." Hellfire was not prepared for it and immediately flushed, saying: "Uh, I'm live." Hellfire then promptly ended the stream, according to the clip. Cented clearly thought they were on a private call when he joined Hellfire and both of them realized the mistake before ending the stream. Of course, the VODs are long gone, so there is no way to check the veracity of the screengrab that was recorded using Geforce Experience. Other accusations against Cented's un-sportsman-like behavior surfaced almost a year ago but did not attract this much attention. In a clip shared on Fortnite's competitive subreddit, Twitch streamer Reverse claimed the ex had tried to grief them by trying to kill them right on spawn. The player has issued a personal apology where he acknowledged his mistake: "To those that I’ve offended, I am sorry. I am not racist, but chose to allow a racial word into my vocabulary. I should know better. I can’t say enough how preventable this is. I am sorry for my deep disrespect and disregarding the true nature and history of that word. My willful ignorance is inexcusable." FaZe Clan has since tweeted about the decision too: FaZe is constantly evolving and we expect our members to do the same.

Cented is permanently removed from FaZe due to his use of hate speech. We, and the gaming community at large can’t tolerate discriminatory language any longer.FaZe is constantly evolving and we expect our members to do the same.Cented is permanently removed from FaZe due to his use of hate speech.
