FaZe Clan may already have an official Apex Legends team, but now the organisation has confirmed that it has signed a second option as well, with this being NickMercs' roster of the Tripods.

As revealed over Twitter, FaZe Clan has added the Tripods to its ranks, meaning the team will now be backed by the same premier esports organisation who signed NickMercs to its squad a few years ago.

  • Rigo "Gent" Padilla
  • "Deeds"

You can catch both FaZe Clan's main Apex Legends roster and the Tripods in action in the ongoing Apex Legends Global Series: 2023 Split 2 Pro League.
