FaZe Clan is massive but relatively new to eSports. With such an incredible fan base and the way they have come together as an organization over the year or so, the people I’ve met and the plans I’ve seen; this is a dream coming through.” an opportunity to “rework our roster”. “For the 2016 season Niko has been the face of our CS:GO division and without doubt he will leave a big hole in our lineup at first,” Tüylü said. “In Niko we will lose one of the most competitive individuals I have ever met in esports. He is a great player and a great character and will surely be missed.” NiKo has been an integral part of mouz since he joined the team in March 2015, leading them to appearances at the last four Majors, though mouz have yet to advance to the Top 8 at a Major.

In the future we want to reflect on our core values again and I hope that this way we can make amends with the fans that we disappointed in the past few months.” FaZe and mouz will next compete at DreamHack Masters Las Vegas 2017 from Feb. 15-19.
