Two members of the FaZe Clan family won’t be available for BLAST Premier: Spring Groups 2023 when the team plays its opener on Friday in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Havard “rain” Nygaard will miss the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive event to attend to the birth of his child, while coach Robert “RobbaN” Dahlstrom is not attending “due to a personal matter.”
