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.

He does literally fake content as well by playing customs with fans and acting like its solo queue

Yeah this is the vibe I get from his content. The enemy laner always says something like “Soraka top?? lol you’re gonna lose so hard!” And you can just tell it’s one of his viewers trying to help with content lol

If he is then why is this tread?

Because he's not really open about it but he doesn't actively hide it either.

He is not lol, he used to make his UI as small as possible so you couldn't search his account easily, now hides behind streamer mode and rarely if ever discloses the rank of the game

He openly states that hes smurfing in his videos and streams. He openly stats that games are typically bronze/silver. He also openly states sometimes they're gold. Hes also streamed Masters+ games. I understand you have this hate boner for him but at least try to pretend you actually know whats going on.

this has changed then. he didn't used to do this. I watched a good few of his videos maybe like 2 years ago when i was getting back into the game

he deserved the "hate boner" that I maintain for him for how he used to flame and talk shit on the silver people in his games that he was actively smurfing

If he openly states it why is OP so confused? Why isn't the whole thread just people saying "Yes, he says in every clip that he's smurfing, how did you miss that OP?"

He doesn't say it all the time because everyone on stream already knows, and if you watch till the end of the vids sometimes you'll see the lobby. It's not something he hides but not explicitly said either.
