NICKMERCS responds to backlash over FaZe Clan reboot FaZe ClanNICKMERCS has finally addressed FaZe Clan\u2019s reboot which was hit with backlash after many long-time members, including his friends, were instantly kicked from the organization. The top content creator was one of only fourteen FaZe members left standing following FaZe Clan\u2019s reboot on April 27. The shock announcement from FaZe Banks revealed that the organization had kicked most of its creators from the roster, including long-term members of Rain, Blaze and Cizzorz. Ever since, the organization has faced waves of backlash from it\u2019s former members and the wider gaming community, with many waiting on NICKMERCS to respond. The Warzone streamer has finally returned after a short break and addressed the situation during his Twitch stream on April 29. NICKMERCS began: \u201cI don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on, I\u2019m not in the room that makes decisions, my phone doesn\u2019t get hit up,\u201d and added: \u201cI don\u2019t want the drama, I don\u2019t want the bulls**t.\u201d Despite partially owning the group, he claimed: \u201cI found out the way y\u2019all did. I mean we knew through the grapevine that there was plans being cooked up, but we never knew what it was going to be or who it was going to be. I mean I didn\u2019t even know if I was going to be kept around.\u201d \u201cI think that the general census is they just want a fresh start, a clean start, they want to tighten it up and then expand it how they want, which I can understand,\u201d he stated. Timestamp 23:50 However, the streamer admitted that FaZe member Nate Hill, as well as long-time friend and Warzone teammate Nio, hurt him the most from those that were kicked. \u201cNate Hill is a worker and he works his damn ass off and he\u2019s done a lot of things for FaZe. But I guess, look, at the end of the day it\u2019s up to those boys it\u2019s not up to me,\u201d NICKMERCS said. In regards to Nio, Nick stated that he \u201cdidn\u2019t know if he was going to be on or off, but I found out like you guys did too.\u201d Even though he thought he \u201cbenefited greatly\u201d from being on the team, he also said that he \u201cdoesn\u2019t need to be on this organization to be successful, I think he\u2019ll be fine.\u201d Overall, NICKMERCS said about how the FaZe reboot was handled: \u201cIt wasn\u2019t great, it wasn\u2019t horrible, no way to make everybody happy. I\u2019m thankful and excited you know to be around.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m sad that a few of these people who had to find out the way that they did, but at the same time, look I have a special place in my heart for Banks and those guys man. I feel the pain they went through.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
