Interview
That’s what the community would have you believe, anyway.
In his first interview since joining Falcons, karrigan spoke to HLTV about all of these things, and it looks like things went down a lot differently.
The move was done very quickly, as he describes it as being signed just hours before the roster lock for the Major. Negotiations were intense, where a move first looked unlikely, but in a matter of days turned into a done deal.
Here a grain of truth actually fell to the community - the deal was inked before the rest of FaZe knew about it. karrigan did not want it to be like this, however, as management had simply informed the team of the move before the captain himself had a chance.
It seems there’s no bad blood, though. He describes Twistzz’s move to the IGL role as a natural evolution that was eventually going to happen, one way or another, and he’d be happy if they succeeded without him.
But why even make the move? Well, aside from the giant pile of money staring you in the face, it is a really exciting roster he’s joining. He describes the opportunity as a fire lit inside him that he could not ignore, in his stomach, that this would be a chance to do something unique.
To some, that’s just the consequences of a hot curry the night before. To Counter-Strike legends… that’s how you win Majors.
In any case, it was very clear he had to get out of FaZe, so when Falcons came knocking he couldn’t say no. The way he puts it:
“I woke up every day in FaZe happy. I ended every day of practice a little more upset.”
We’re sure every FaZe fan can relate to that.
