FaZe Clan co-founder Ricky Banks has sparked a heated feud with influencer Jack Doherty after calling him the “worst streamer of all time.” Banks made the controversial statement during a December 18 segment for Complex, where he and streamer Plaqueboymax discussed their best and worst topics.

“It’s easily Jack Doherty,” Banks said in the video. “Jack’s a piece of sh*t. Everybody knows it, obviously.” Plaqueboymax echoed the sentiment, jokingly referencing Doherty’s infamous October 2024 McLaren crash that went viral and led to his permanent ban from Kick for promoting dangerous broadcasts.

Doherty responded hours later, targeting Banks’ finances in a post on X (formerly Twitter). “I wonder how much Banks paid in taxes last year. I know bro makes NO money these days,” Doherty wrote.

Banks quickly retaliated, accusing Doherty of viewbotting and involvement in a questionable cryptocurrency venture. “I simply bought mog at $12M and cleared your lifetime earnings in a single trade,” Banks fired back. “You buy watches, I buy companies.”

This isn’t the first time Banks has engaged in public disputes. Following the 2024 Streamer Awards, he criticized Stranger Things actress Grace Van Dien for comments about her time with FaZe Clan, leading to her temporary social media hiatus.

The ongoing feud highlights the intense rivalries in the streaming and influencer space, with both Banks and Doherty showing no signs of backing down.
