olofmeister to return to FaZe for ELEAGUE Premier

Olof "⁠olofmeister⁠" Kajbjer will make his return in FaZe in time for ELEAGUE Premier in late July, the organization announced via Twitter.

olofmeister will return to action following a nearly four-month-long break from competition, which he took back in early April to deal with personal issues. The Swede was looking to get back to competing in late May, but he ended up prolonging his hiatus as he had realized he was not ready to come back yet.

In the meantime, FaZe continued to use Jorgen "⁠cromen⁠" Robertsen as a stand-in, with whom they grabbed semi-finals finishes at ECS Season 5 Finals and ESL One Cologne as well as a title at ESL One Belo Horizonte.
