FaZe Clan reportedly eyeing mousesports\u2019 Karrigan to replace NiKo ELEAGUEFaZe Clan are reportedly eyeing a reunion with mousesports\u2019 in-game leader Finn \u2018karrigan\u2019 Andersen as a replacement for recently-departed CS:GO star Nikola \u2018NiKo\u2019 Kova\u010d. According to The Clutch, FaZe has been interested in the Danish-German who has an expiring contract with mousesports in 2021. The org could decide to pull the trigger on a deal now with a likely buyout, or avoid a transfer fee all together when karrigan hits the free market in March. It\u2019s said Brazilian star Marcelo \u2018coldzera\u2019 David has been pushing for karrigan\u2019s signing ever since NiKo left to join his cousin Nemanja \u2018huNter-\u2019 Kova\u010d on G2 in late October. Coldzera has been taking over IGL responsibilities in the meantime, and is lobbying the organization to fill in the spot with a strong pick like mousesports\u2019 general. Coming into the year, mousesports had been one of the top teams in the world. Between November 2019 and February 2020, they had secured top 2 finishes in every event they participated in. They\u2019ve struggled in the online era, and that\u2019s even before \u00d6zg\u00fcr \u2018woxic\u2019 Eker was benched in August, eventually signing with Cloud9. Mouse\u2019s developmental player, Aurimas \u2018Bymas\u2019 Pipiras, was promoted to the starting line, completing karrigan\u2019s five-man team. Now he has a chance to pick between his on-again-off-again org since 2010, or a FaZe Clan team that kicked him in the past just to immediately regret it soon after. It\u2019s not to say that both teams can\u2019t still turn around their fate. While on the lookout for a permanent fifth, Olof \u2018olofmeister\u2019 Gustafsson has been subbing in the FaZe lineup and are now in the playoffs at IEM Beijing-Haidian Europe 2020. Should he go back, Karrigan would replace olof and reunite with close friend H\u00e5vard \u2018rain\u2019 Nygaard, the only remnant of the FaZe Clan team he left behind in 2018. Meanwhile, mousesports still has impressive players like David \u2018frozen\u2019 \u010cer\u0148ansk\u00fd, Chris \u2018chrisJ\u2019 de Jong, and star talent Robin \u2018ropz\u2019 Kool. Karrigan, 30, has a wealth of tactical ingenuity as well as a strong rifle and he\u2019s proven it in the past, making him a valuable asset for all interested parties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
