It first became known about olofmeister's departure from FaZe on February 13 when the player himself said in an interview that BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2021 would be his last tournament with the team. After the championship, the 29-year-old Swede confirmed this information.

Also, as everyone knows that was my last tournament with the faze boys!

olofmeister has played for FaZe since August 2017 and has helped the team win seven tournaments during that time. The European team's best achievement in the majors was reaching the finals of the ELEAGUE Major Boston 2018.

Finn "karrigan" Andersen, who previously refused to renew his contract with mousesports, is expected to take the place of Kajbjer in the near future. The Dane's return to FaZe will likely be announced before February 18, when the team will debut at IEM Katowice 2021.
