FaZe Jarvis trolled "the whole internet" by seemingly playing Fortnite while banned

Roughly one year ago, Jarvis Khattri, also known as FaZe Jarvis, got permanently banned from Fortnite by Epic Games for showing how to use cheats on stream. Now, it seems FaZe Jarvis trolled the internet by faking a stream where he played Fortnite while permanently banned.

As it turns out, this was all an elaborate troll move from FaZe Jarvis, tricking a large portion of the internet, pro players, as well as Epic Games themselves.

Some fans might have noticed how Jarvis turned off subscriptions and donations for the stream.

Then, a few days later, FaZe Jarvis boasted about how he trolled "the whole internet" in a YouTube video entitled "I tricked the internet into thinking I played Fortnite".

According to Jarvis, his friends at the FaZe Clan house helped him trick Epic Games, baiting the developer into banning him.

At the time of writing, it appears that the FaZe Clan house is now IP banned. 

It remains unclear if Epic Games will unban the FaZe Clan house IP but since they went out of their way to trick the developer, we won't hold our breath.
