NICKMERCS, one of the most recognizable names in streaming, has announced his departure from FaZe Clan after a successful five-year partnership. The streamer joined the organization in 2019 after leaving 100 Thieves and became a central figure in FaZe’s roster.
On January 10, 2025, NICKMERCS took to social media to reveal the news, explaining that his decision was not due to any issues with FaZe but rather a desire to pursue new opportunities. “It’s just that time to move forward,” he wrote, expressing appreciation for FaZe founders Banks, Tommy, Rug, and Apex.
FaZe Clan released a heartfelt statement in response, crediting NICKMERCS for his support during a challenging period for the organization. “You repped this FaZe sh*t and rode through the absolute worst period of its existence. F**king love you,” the statement read.
NickMercs is officially no longer part of FaZe Clan - our message to Nick & MFAM:
NickMercs, you joined FaZe at the worst possible time. The fact we made it 5 years with you just goes to show what kind of a guy you are. We clicked almost immediately and always felt like you were… x.com/i/web/status/1…

Although it’s unclear if NICKMERCS will join another organization, FaZe emphasized they would always be open to supporting him. Fans will now see him streaming without the FaZe banner, marking the end of a significant chapter in his career.
