Yes, they are better. Sad to admit it though.

2020-12-01 10:16

most people think of them as a t2 cis team. To a point they are because it is not uncommon for them to lose against someone like nemiga. But they can also punch way above their weight class. All in all they aren't bad, but still on paper faze are better.

No, Whenever you see FaZe , people are like they have firepower , they only need igl but this is not the case. This is not 2017 players we are talking about. Coldzera - loses most of the duels broky - meh AWP rain - not the same as people think Kjaerbye - Shakerbye Olof - Botolf I didn't see any firepower there.

I will disagree strongly about cold and broky. Kyarby is like perfecto, olof is a bit like get_right now. Rain is someone that has never played really good or really bad, I'd say he is a bit below average constantly

A month and a half ago they beat Heroic, OG, BIG, Vitality and OG a second time (in a bo5), back to back, without losing a single map. They (severely) lack consistency, not ability.

I'd go as far as to say they lack motivation and a fire that would create consistency. By no means are they a bad team, just one that doesn't seem to give a poo

2020-12-01 11:05

Olof just got back, havent played in 4 months, only just started practicing recently, don't bully (you are right about him not being the top frag of every game ever, but im just saying no need to bully, he didn't even come back, cuz he wanted to, he came back because FaZe needed a stand-in...)

2020-12-01 10:52

Best way in which I could describe faze rn is that they are just an fpl match team.

2020-12-01 17:42

NiKo was the only one giving his all and yet FaZe fans called him out for destroying the team. You need 2/3 players to replace NiKo's worth.

2020-12-01 10:18

+1, everyone was talking shit on NiKo, but NiKo was the best player in the team. I don't get why everyone was talking shit on NiKo, and no one on Cold. Cold was and is playing shit. Someone might say that he's playing bad because he is IGL, but Niko was also IGL and he was playing way better. And Cold was playing bad even when he wasn't IGL. Cold is under performing, but everyone is and was talking shit on Niko. But Cold was bought to be star of the squad, but he is playing bad since Olof went on the break. Before Olof went on the break Cold was playing ok. NiKo, I miss u. NiKo, u should ignore what are those stupid idiots writing on hltv about u, u are one the best in the game.

2020-12-01 10:27

Because when NiKo was calling, he he restricted free space to other teammates, only one he played good although not a high level, but with the impact of one player it is impossible to win, especially when he doesn't have an experience in IGLing. Plus, given his mentality and character, and sad pumpkin when losing, he can not be IGL, and he will never be. He carried only his ass in FaZe, this is confirmed by the fact that other teammates mostly sucked. That's why NiKo was the problem, and he destroyed FaZe.

Isn't all that just excuses for bad performances from other teammates? Noone actually has any evidence on him being like that apart from some he said/she said stuff.

Dude, I've watched their games, and I say what I see. To be honest, I would like to say that nothing can help FaZe, and they can disband. What started after they took Olof and guardian and made a game based on an individual game, it all went down the drain. FaZe Clan, were with allu and kio, with Olof and guardian - ChoKe Clan.

2020-12-01 10:47

That whole team was set up around broky. NiKo was entry fragging playing agro on both ct and t on hard positions like outside on Nuke and was still the top performer. The map he favoured himself was dust 2 ct where he awped long and that's it. Other than that he was pretty selfless

Naf is good, but Idk will he want to leave Liquid. Ropz? Then mouz can down to the tier3-5 team. The structure? Yeah But you forgot to mention the IGL, you can say that cold can, but he not sure that can take on the burden, since the plan to return karrigan is cold's initiative

Using "structre" I mean a good IGL/coach duo, who can sort all of faze's shit out, cold IGL already "proved itself" in mibr 2018

huge karrigan fan here, but would like to see him stick with mousesports as well. i'd have hired ALEX when he was available, but now who'd go to faze atm? MSL? azr?

2020-12-01 12:33

FaZe was always attractive team to watch but sadly those days are gone. Rain and olof should retire or switch teams for new motivation but it's understandable that they wont because of nice salary no matter if losing or winning. Cutting any other player doesnt make sense financialy wise. Bring in igl and some rifler or main awper and we good

I remember when they played ESL pro league and had an unbeaten record either this year or end of last year. Their games had tactics and finesse to them, which you simply don't see in t2/3 teams. Now it's almost as if they don't really know what they are doing on the map.

2020-12-01 10:53

I wouldnt be suprised that FaZe lost to Spirit. If you're gonna play a pub style in tournaments you're gonna lose to CIS teams. Last year it was ForZe this year it's Spirit. They're just much better at this style. FaZe need to start playing structured game but it's impossible without an IGL and coach.

I am surprised that people don't take the cis region seriously. They don't have the best strats or anything like that but their individual skill is often times insane. Just look at spirit, their pug style is very solid. Against tactics of someone like astralis they will probably lose but against something like a shitty faze, they will 80% win

2020-12-01 10:52

it is.

2020-12-01 10:49

It is time for me, Anime4life, to fix FaZe Clan. -Kjaerbye He just sucks imo. Can't aim that well and is often put in rather good positions, just a complete washed up player. -Olofmeister Well technically he is a stand-in and WILL be removed pretty much no matter what but ya, he obviously isn't very motivated to keep playing. First thing is add an IGL, I personally think Cold should focus of fragging. FalleN and Xizt are two that should be rather cheap to get for FaZe, but let's assume the deal with Mouz goes through and they get Karrigan. Then add a rifler, I'd like to see f0rest personally, I feel like he can really fill in the weak points in the FaZe roster. They could add Bubzkji, who seems to me to be a rather talented young rifler who in the right circumstances can become an insane top tier rifler. oBo could be a good fit but obviously he wants to stay in NA. Now if you want me to be honest I'd also recommend removing Broky, he just doesn't cut it for a tier 1 AWPer, but I don't think I can think of a better AWPer right now so probably just keep him. So for me the most likely roster that I think could work would be: rain Coldzera Broky Karrigan Bubzkji/f0rest

I doubt that they will cut kjaerbye, they've just signed him... -rain -olof Olof doesnt seem to be the best solution and also is stand-in. Rain has still firepower but he needs new impulse, new motivation in a different team to start rainning again. Broky is good and young, he earned his spot on roster Cold and kjaer are latest contracts, there is no way FaZe will cut them right now Bring in IGL and decent rifler/main awper and we good

I think the problem with cutting Rain is that rain is the entry, he plays the shit roles and he tends to do rather good compared to other players in those roles. Cutting him would need some other player to fill it

WellI feel like kicking one player would not solve anything so -olof is natural move, rain would make more sense. The only other option is -broky but I personally would not go for that. Sad that nitro went for valorant, I would pick him up in this situation. His hammers would bring in some structure, hopefully but I doubt he would even join with his family etc. So that's just my wish xd

I don't believe these 6-man rosters, players will tend to be jealous and make drama and ruin the whole thing I think. I agree that kjaerbye is not solution to anything, I wouldnt even sign him when olof took a break, but they did and as I said, I dont think they will cut him rn They surely have a different task to solve with roster

To be fair to FaZe: this is a transitional period for them as they said themselves they will not get a new IGL until 2021. So we shouldn't read too much into their current performance.

2020-12-01 11:27

the team lacks ambition

2020-12-01 11:31

Why are people so dumb, they already said that they Will get an IGL on 2021, they are playing with this lineup just for this year. btw coldzera is playing better than before, not as 2017 but he is putting better numbers. We just have to Wait until 2021
