Karrigan: being benched at FaZe, leading a young Mousesports, and loving the big stage

Karrigan is one of my favourite players on the world circuit so it was fantastic to get time to sit down with him at IEM Sydney.

We talk about his interesting year, from winning IEM Sydney with FaZe Clan, to being benched, and now finding a new home at Mousesports. He tells us how he treats every time on the big stage like it might be his last, and how much the Counter-Strike scene has changed since his early 1.6 days.

It's an honest and insightful conversation. Please enjoy!
