The FaZe Clan has been facing quite a backlash recently. The company stocks plummeted to a record low, and the Clan even bid farewell to Snoop Dogg, who was part of the organization for a while.
But now amidst all this chaos, a silver shining has come into the personal lives of some in the Clan. FaZe Nickmercs, the co-owner of FaZe Clan, got the biggest news of his life. The internet celebrity now has been gifted with a beautiful baby boy.

Nicholas Kolcheff, popularly known as Nickmercs, has been part of FaZe Clan for quite some years now. He began his career in the streaming biz through Gears of War. Later, he even went on to win the 2009 Gears of War 2 National Championship.
Nickmercs moved to Call of Duty and Outlast after moving away from Gears of War and then joined 100 Thieves. A keen interest in Fortnite was developed there, and he even won some competitions. But his 100T run hit a roadblock which facilitated his monumental move to FaZe.
Now, following a hectic career, the 30-year-old is blessed with a baby boy. He and his wife, Emumita Bonita, welcomed their new family member the previous day, and Nick took to Twitter to share his happy news.

Others jokingly talked about how Nickmercs is creating a talented family that is ready to take on any eSports competition.
This sure is a piece of good news for the FaZe Clan fans as well. Especially as FaZe is currently running one of the biggest rough patches in its history.

On the other hand, Nick likely would continue to stream after he is settled back home. At the moment, the streamer likely would be busy being a first-time parent. Nick and his wife may currently be overwhelmed by the arrival of their dear son, but his fans will surely be there to support him through this new parental experience.
