Mouz Captain Finn ‘Karrigan’  Andersen might return back to FaZe Clan’s active CSGO roster.

According to a report from theclutch, Karrigan has been linked to his former CSGO team FaZe Clan for a return. In the “Flow Podcast”  Marcelo “⁠coldzera⁠” David discussed his team’s plans for 2021 where they would go on to sign a captain and a psychologist as well.

At the end of 2018, Karrigan had been moved to the bench by the mixed European side on the basis of his poor results at the same. Now, with losing Nikola ‘NiKo’ Kovač to the french side G2 Esports, they have been pondering to sign an In-Game Leader for their active Squad.

2020 saw a year filled with roster changes for FaZe Clan as they seemed to struggle for consistency after finishing the year with just 1 championship title at the IEM New York 2020 Europe where they defeated OG in the B05 Grand Final. 

As mentioned above, they were forced to trial Aurimas “Bymas” Pipiras in the place of Olof “Olofmeister” Kajbjer who chose to step down from the roster earlier in May. Bymas was soon replaced by Markus “⁠Kjaerbye⁠” Kjærby on a permanent basis.

In the Flow Podcast, Coldzera discussed FaZe Clan’s future where he talked about the team’s itinerary to sign 6 players along with an analyst and psychologist as well. In a write-up by HLTV.Org, it was further revealed by the South American, ‘”We really need to sign a captain. This will also free me up to take spots in which I enjoyed playing.

We don’t know if we’ll change other players because at the moment we’re focused on signing a captain and a psychologist. Olofmeister doesn’t want to stay because he wants to retire.”

Coldzera concluded the Podcast by recognizing Finn “⁠karrigan⁠” Andersen, Lukas “⁠gla1ve⁠” Rossander, and Gabriel “⁠FalleN⁠” Toledo as the best in-game leaders across the globe.
