Karrigan Reportedly Set To Join Falcons After FaZe’s Cologne 2026 Disappointment

According to recent reports from multiple sources, Finn “⁠karrigan⁠” Andersen is all set to join Team Falcons in the near future.

The story was initially broken by French insider Sebastien “⁠KRL⁠” Perez, with HLTV later corroborating the report.

The news comes just a week after FaZe’s disappointing finish at the HLC Belgrade PRO, rendering the organization unable to qualify for the IEM Cologne 2026. This marked the first time since the org’s entry into the competitive Counter-Strike scene that it was unable to qualify for a CS2 major.

“I think it’s the first time where I have to consider where I am, in myself, in my life,” Karrigan said in an interview. “These results are by far [below] what I accept as a leader of this team, as a player who’s been in FaZe for a long time, so I understand.”

Karrigan is expected to join the Falcons CS2 roster after the conclusion of IEM Rio 2026. The Danish IGL will likely replace the team’s current leader, Damjan “⁠kyxsan⁠” Stoilkovski.

Should this move go through, it will see Karrigan reuniting with former FaZe teammate Nikola “⁠NiKo⁠” Kovač for the first time in over seven years.

Here’s what the updated Falcons roster would look like following this signing:

• Nikola “⁠NiKo⁠” Kovač
• René “⁠TeSeS⁠” Madsen
• Ilya “⁠m0NESY⁠” Osipov
• Maksim “⁠kyousuke⁠” Lukin
• Finn “⁠karrigan⁠” Andersen
• Danny “⁠zonic⁠” Sørensen (coach)
