One of the most popular Fortnite streamers, Turner ‘Overwatch player turned popular content creator, Dellor was recently banned from Twitch following an explosive outburst that saw him smash a keyboard into his own face.

“Do not hit yourself with it or you will be banned,” one of Tfue’s friends warned in his voice chat just moments before the keyboard was snapped in half. 

Dellor was banned from the Twitch platform for violating the terms of service. Smashing a keyboard over his face counted as an expression of self-harm which subsequently resulted in his removal from the streaming site.

Known for his amusing outbursts, even playing into the cliche with his YouTube icon set to a picture of his face mid-scream, Dellor has yet to follow up with another stream on the platform.

With the video of his first stream now sitting at over half a million views, it will be interesting to see if his success on the platform continues to skyrocket in the face of his recent ban from Twitch.
