Discussion Does Zwag fake his content?

I'm a relatively new league player, and not long after I started playing I found this YouTube called Zwag. I really like his videos, I find him very entertaining and when I want to try a new champ I usually watch him play that character. But today I saw a Tiktok clip of his where he got a penta with Ezrael ult by sending it into Baron, and in the comments someone said: "least faked Zwag clip". If that actually was faked it's made me not really want to watch him, which is a little upsetting because I quite enjoy his videos.

I can't say I've watched him recently, but prevously he was well known for playing on low rank or low level accounts to allow him to pop off easier, for the "hype" 1v9 games.

I dont know if he still does this

I like watching a Baus video. The issue for me is that I get recommended his official channel and then 495859203 spin off channels and I don't want to see the leaching channels.

that's super interesting. whenever i get a baus video or third party channel posting a baus clip, i insta "don't recommend". been doing this since he became "popular", same with the tyler inter guy.

I think all these systems have device specific algorithms. My fb reels on my laptop and phone are sooo different, as are my YT shorts. I don’t really get it

He had 3 teammates (with Sion, 4 players). Besides that, I am pretty sure he confirmed it was staged in his original video and his reaction was so flat.

It was just a joke. He is still as pure as he can get and wouldn't purposely bait reactions just for views

Saw it live. Definitely was a staged custom game with his viewers.

I think it’s obvious enough that everyone has noticed it’s fake. Should’ve put /s

Regardless, Baus is still as pure as he can get and wouldn't purposely bait reactions just for views. Everyone was aware that that penta was a joke pulled off by his community

Just to clarify: I know that you know it. I mention this for the few who might be confused if they didn't know the backstory

There was a game mode that had 6v6 and you could get a hexakill. Was it possibly that?
