Former streamer and Fortnite pro “Zayn” finally got his indefinite ban lifted after two years.<\/p>\n

The player was hit with the ‘permanent’ hammer ban back in 2019 for “evading a site-wide or channel suspension” after failing to stay off the platform as he created an alt Twitch account where he watched and chatted on multiple streams.<\/p>\n

His attempts to bypass the punishment led to getting NRG’s professional Fortnite player, Cody “Clix” Conrod banned even though he had him “muted” and “changed his nickname.”<\/p>\n

Clix on Twitter<\/span>nice got a 7day ban for having zayn in my stream… I had him muted, changed his nickname. How does @Khanada_TV get a 3day and i get a 7day? WTF— Clix (@ClixHimself) November 12, 2019<\/span>Clix<\/span>Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

Zayn is no stranger to controversy as he’s been widely regarded as a polarizing figure in a community with a very young demographic.<\/p>\n

He was infamous for his alleged scams where he would have players all over the world 1v1 him on Fortnite in a best-of-five with a money wager on the line, ultimately not paying up even though the match was played on his servers and under his “win by 2” rules.<\/p>\n
