How a Battle Royale Phenom's Hype Train Turned into Hackusations

  • There is pretty much no higher honour in the whole of FPS than absolutely smoking someone and being labeled a ‘cheater’.
    Whether it’s because you’ve domed someone with a disgusting one-tap or obliterated them with an utterly obscene flick, we’ve all experienced a moment where we’ve smugly said to ourselves 'Ha. That kid definitely thinks I’m cheating'.
    Of course, there are certain crackshots who are so infamously nutty that they’ve had no choice but to learn how to take such skepticism in stride. And yet, of all the super sus face slappers regularly turning their victims into Twitch clips, none have leaned into the rumors quite as brazenly as Mason “Symfuhny” Lanier.
    Notorious for his impeccable tracking, wow-inspiring wall-bangs and, let’s be honest, his frown-inducing flicks, Symfuhny isn’t downplaying the fact that people think he cheats. No, he’s flexing it to the point that it’s become his brand.
    The question, of course, is why? Is it playful posturing, a form of deflection or a stroke of genius?

      I'm mean even Pro's says they don't know/or that they are sus, that explains everything.
      French and Polish top scene all accused flusha of cheaitng for example.
      Symphony is the same among streamers and pro's.
      Both flusha and symphony have hundreth of clips that even best pro's cannot explain.
      For 1 that is caught, other remain free. They don't do it for yolo, they do it for their ego, fans and monetary gain.
