Olofmeister: Twistzz is too nice sometimes
On FaZe it is up to the 21-year-old Canadian Russel "Twistzz" Van Dulken to take on the role of the star player on the team.
Russel "Twistzz" Van Dulken took the CS world by surprise, with his departure from Team Liquid after the conclusion of IEM Global Challenge in December 2020.
The Canadian rifler needed a new place to bring back the joy of Counter-Strike and to further develop himself as a player. He found exactly that on FaZe. With Finn "karrigan" Andersen as the in-game leader, Twistzz is now given the responsibility of a "star-player" on the team. A perfect fit if you ask Olof "olofmeister" Kajbjer Gustafsson, who previously was regarded as one of the game's biggest stars. Now, in his older days, the Swede has taken up the support/lurker role on the team, where he has first row tickets to see his new teammate in action.
- Russel is a great, great guy. He is one of the kindest guys, that I have ever met in Esports. His aim is insane. The only one I can compare him to is NiKo. He has a very good understanding of the game, and I think he can be a really big star player and has a long career in front of him. But I also think that he is too nice sometimes. Sometimes you also need to be the bad guy.
The 21-year-old Canadian has a smile on his face, as he hears the words from the Swede. It is definitely not the first time, that he hears the advice from his experienced teammate.
- I can definitely try. But it would be uncharacteristic of me to do that, but it is something I know, that I need to improve on if I want to take control of our games.
