FaZe Clan is organising its own event in San Diego at the same time, and its co-owner Nickmercs has stated masks won’t be required.
Last week Twitch updated its policy for its TwichCon San Diego event, making masks a requirement while indoors as well as proof of vaccination or a negative covid test.
The MFAM event was planned to run alongside TwitchCon “months ago”, said Nickmercs, but he’s using Twitch’s policy update as a marketing spin.
He also replied to the Twitch tweet with “L” (loss), as did other members of FaZe Clan.
