Questions people ask

Who is Teeqo?

Teeqo is a YouTuber from Sweden and a longtime FaZe Clan member, with about 2.65 million subscribers on his YouTube channel as of November 2026. Tubefilter called him one of FaZe’s long-standing members in March 2023 and reported that he once lived in the original FaZe house on Long Island. In August 2021 he said, “I’ve been in FaZe for a decade,” per Dexerto. His channel has moved from FaZe vlogs and pranks to day-in-the-life videos and Counter-Strike 2 content.

What happened to Teeqo? Why was Teeqo kicked from FaZe?

Teeqo was not kicked from FaZe Clan: in July 2021 FaZe suspended him over the Save the Kids crypto token, and he was back in the clan by September 2021. Save the Kids was a token promoted to fans with a charity angle that crashed soon after launch. In a July 1, 2021 statement, quoted by Dexerto, FaZe said it “had absolutely no involvement with our member’s activity in the cryptocurrency space” and that “We strongly condemn their recent behavior.” FaZe removed Kay and suspended Teeqo, FaZe Jarvis and Nikan until further notice. The member FaZe let go was Kay, not Teeqo.

What did Teeqo say about the Save the Kids coin?

Teeqo said he never worked on the Save the Kids coin but admitted promoting it was a mistake, in a video covered by Dexerto on August 16, 2021. Per Dexerto, he said he joined because of the charity angle, bought in after launch, deleted his promotional tweets quickly so others would not buy in, and did not plan to pull his own money out. “Yes, it was a mistake. Yes, that’s on me, I’m not denying that,” he said, and added, “I feel like I never got treated as an individual who made his own decision.”

Is Teeqo back in FaZe? When did he come back?

Yes, Teeqo returned to FaZe Clan on September 10, 2021, about ten weeks after his suspension, per Dexerto. He announced it on Instagram, said on stream “I’m back baby. FaZe Teeqo is back,” and FaZe posted a YouTube video welcoming him back. A week later, on September 17, 2021, he uploaded “my reaction to joining FaZe Clan again” to his own channel.

Is Teeqo still in FaZe? Is Teeqo in FaZe?

As of November 2026, neither Teeqo nor FaZe Clan has announced that he left, in anything we could source; the last published report of him as an official member is Tubefilter’s, from March 2023. What is public: Tubefilter reported in March 2023 that he was still listed as an official member, and on May 20, 2024 he posted a vlog behind the scenes with the FaZe Counter-Strike team at the Copenhagen Major. When most of FaZe’s creators left in late December 2025, Dexerto named the creators still on the team as ZooMaa, Jev and Scope, and did not mention Teeqo among those who left or stayed. His Twitch bio reads “Jakob” with a business email and no FaZe mention. We do not guess beyond that.

Why did Teeqo leave FaZe? What did he say in Dear FaZe Clan?

Teeqo has not announced leaving FaZe Clan, but in March 2023 he publicly asked FaZe whether he was still in, in a video titled “Dear FaZe Clan”, posted March 12, 2023. Per Dot Esports, he said newer signings got “three times the amount of shares that I have, and an annual salary that’s more money than I’ve ever been paid,” and asked, “I’m asking you: am I in, FaZe?” Tubefilter covered the video alongside FaZe Rain’s criticism as FaZe’s stock price fell. Ten days later, on March 22, 2023, he posted a video titled “I’m leaving”. We have not verified what he says in it, so we do not characterize it.

Where is Teeqo now? What is Teeqo doing now?

As of November 2026, Teeqo’s YouTube channel is quiet: his newest upload is more than a year old, per the upload dates on his channel. His last run of videos was Counter-Strike 2 skin trade-up videos, after day-in-the-life vlogs and Counter-Strike content in 2023 and 2024, including “Teeqo x FaZe CS Team VLOG” from the Copenhagen Major in May 2024. His site, teeqo.com, is a password-protected “Teeqo Official Store” page asking visitors to sign up for updates. He has not announced a new project that we could source.

Is Teeqo Swedish? Where is Teeqo from?

Teeqo is from Sweden: Famous Birthdays lists Sweden as his birthplace, and Dexerto reported he was in Sweden during the Save the Kids fallout in summer 2021. Earlier in his FaZe years he lived in the original FaZe house on Long Island, per Tubefilter.

How old is Teeqo? How tall is Teeqo?

Teeqo is 33 as of November 2026, born October 24, 1993, per Famous Birthdays. He has not published his height in anything we could source, so we do not list one.

What is Teeqo’s real name?

Teeqo’s real name is Jakob Swaerden, as printed by Tubefilter on March 22, 2023. He signs his YouTube descriptions “Jakob,” and his Twitch bio opens with the same name.

What about Teeqo’s family or who he is dating?

Not something we cover.

Who represents Teeqo?

As of November 2026, no agent or manager is named publicly for Teeqo; his YouTube and Twitch pages list a business email at teeqo.com. Ames Create does not represent him; we cover him because people keep asking whether he was kicked from FaZe and whether he is still in it, and most of that answer is on the record. If that changes, this entry will say so.

Our read

Ames Create does not work with Teeqo. This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.

The format. He is a FaZe lifer whose channel grew up with the clan: house vlogs and pranks in the FaZe years, then a slower, more personal mix of day-in-the-life videos, cooking and Counter-Strike. His audience came for the FaZe world and has stayed for him being in it.

Why it travels. His biggest recent moments were about FaZe itself. “Dear FaZe Clan” passed 2.8 million views and “I’m leaving” 1.1 million, well above his everyday uploads, which tells you the audience follows his relationship with the clan more than any format. His Counter-Strike videos travel inside the CS2 crowd but at a fraction of that.

Brand fit. Gaming peripherals, Counter-Strike products and lifestyle brands aimed at long-time FaZe fans; his 2023 descriptions carried a discount code for Ghost. The 2021 Save the Kids suspension is part of his public record, so crypto and finance brands are a poor fit, and with no upload in more than a year a brand would want to see him active again first.
