The legendary Counter Strike Global Offensive pro, Olof “olofmeister” Kajbjer, recently announced he was taking time off the competitive scene. He cited fatigue and a lack of motivation as the primary reasons behind it. Suddenly, FaZe Clan was a man short. Moreover, it wasn’t just any man, it was one of the game’s greatest players ever. With the Dreamhack Masters Spring rapidly approaching, the question on everyone’s mind was, who will replace Olof?

Bymas impresses on Counter Strike Global Offensive debut
FaZe surprised everyone with their announcement to replace Olof. It was a little-known 16-year-old kid named Aurimas “Bymas” Pipiras. The few who had heard his name was largely because Nikola “NiKo” Kovač had recently pointed to Bymas as an exciting prospect.

When FaZe recruits a young player and a great leader like Niko has high praise for him, you know there’s a talent. Naturally, the curiosity surrounding Bymas was high. But we did not have to wait too long to see what the new recruit was all about. He had a place in the starting lineup against GODSENT in their Dreamhack Masters Spring clash.
