CS:GO: Rumors Suggest Major Roster Shuffle for FaZe Clan in 2021
Follow Us
FaZe Clan’s CS:GO team had a rocky 2020 with major roster shuffles and a key player’s exit. The team’s performance has been subpar, and it forced the organization to explore other options. In early 2020, FaZe clan saw their marquee player Olofmeister stepping down from active duty, citing exhaustion that directly translated in his performance.
This led to the signing of the Danish powerhouse in Markus Kjærbye as a replacement for the legendary Olofmiester. The organization then parted ways with their star player ‘NiKo’ at the tail end of 2020, forcing Olof to re-join the roster. Now the rumors making rounds on the internet suggest yet another major signing from a top tier NA team.
