#eZaF
#FazeUP
Fluke team? What a troll.
+1 rain is an actual bot
BOT Elliot > rain
1v1 elliot bro
He triggered u men))
It is called "FaZe Joke"
This aged well
TROLLER AND A SPAMER...,,,,GET HIM OUT,,,
I HAVE REPORT THIS SPAMER AND TROLLER
Fluke team??
Omegalul
Team work > a few individuals
Go watch how astralis rekt faze on stream
MENS this match start when i finish work thanks u god!
i will miss first 30 mins but then i get to see rain smesh ecovice
cobrazera will epicly own astralis
choko will choke
olof will tec-9 rush them
and broky will out awp device
hahaha i like how you love all faze except choko
What a match
So EZ4FAZE
RIP FaZe
gonna watch. Either gonna cry or jump out in joy
Same as well soo buzzin to see what Faze players re cabale versus current top 1
If FaZe gets inferno I can see this being a good game. It looked like their best map imo. They keep on trying new maps trying to build a map pool and not rely on one map like dust2.
i hope faze wins
Major final ?
ez win for 4 time major winner FaZe
#FaZeUP
0/8 nt trying to bait everyone supporting FaZe. maybe you should #FaZeUP?
EZ4FAZE EZ4COLD
ez4 GOATCLAN
Realistic outcome of the match :Astralis is gonna win for sure, Faze are not yet a strong team to be considered, hope for a close match and great executes from Faze
Yeah hopefully they show some progression as a team at the very least.
Yeah same here
my boi sweden4k
let's goo
NiKo lowest rating of them all. who would've guessed that shit man. I miss old NiKo
Would u see the old niko & still lost or faze clan winning again as a team?
w/o old NiKo its impossible to win against astralis.
+1
gonna watch the first map. if faze wants to win they have to win first map forsure
If They play solid like yesterday have chance to win 1 map I also think that
it was VP dude...
I know that but after They add Cold They looking decent
Rip faze
Looks like a great match!
THE one thing, Astralis can't take: FAST stuff and individual fights!
There is NO team out there, who can match Astralis if it gets strategical, but both EG, Liquid and lately Fnatic showed how to deal with the Kings of Counter Strike.
Looking forward to it, considering the new Faze line-up!
Nikola BOTač will step up.
Quote me when FaZe get more than 10 rounds on any map
nt
GG COLDZERA let's goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo THE MAN THE MYTH THE BEAST
rip marcelo david
tie bet wtf?
Despite all the hatred for olof, he actually is one of the most consistent players in the team. Performing way better than rain, niko and broky..
Just look at the damn stats of the last few months.
Lol, 50-50? Easy bet on Astralis if you bet tbh
EZAF
Astralis win 16-7 and 16-12
faze still has fans that vote for them to win LUL
you are a fan of Niko, hahah tier 5 player
atleast kebab is top 20
like both of the teams,... astralis will do it
cold will rekt them lmao
GG
Y there odds for tie?
scam
ez for the winner
Faze you mean
if it astralis?
then it's ezaf
Astralis always tremble against coldzera
Astralis aren't unbeatable lul
if they all pop up they can easily, but its end of the 2019 so its basically impossible
Faze will clap Glave Cheeks
if faze win a map il be very very suprised
LoL EZ4 WinStralis
1 vs 21 ranks LUL
1K on 2-0 @ 1.65
1K on 2-1 @ 2.8
House edge = 3.8% in your favor IF, I repeat, IF Faze doesnt win
Not worth this kind of bet. Just bet 2K on Astralis
365 odds:
ML: 1.16
2-0: 1.72
2-1: 3.0
avg 2.36 (1.72+3)/2
2360/1.72 = 1372 on 2-0
2360/3.0 = 786 on 2-1
Expected payout:
2-0: 2360
2-1: 2360
Alternative:
1.16x2000=2320
I mean you can always do 1000/1000 if you think more likely with 2-1, but cant say im a fan of it either.
Not a fan of splitting the odds like this, i'd rather just put money on astralis 2-0 and if they lose consider hedging.
Its better to distribute the money rather than put 1k on each, thats one fact. But I'd go just for ML. On my bookie ML is 1.20+
good luck, dude. I hope Danes won't shit their pants
Went with 80 on combo : nip third map + astralis in bo3 + g2 in bo3
I think ez for faze
2-1Astralis
+1.5 FaZe safe bet.

They should be such a strong team
but they have all good stats mens))))))
people are too dumb to see you need a good igl
karrigan was the first person who turned faze in a very good team and these bots flame him
same with hunden, just a great igl, tricked shows it perfectly right now
but what do you expect in a world where ence kicks their igl instead of xbot
nah dude magisk is super consistent and a stable player and picks up so many roles for the team (heavily underrated, just because hes not the best aimer)
kjaerbye is the type of player who only plays good when hes fired up which is a bit rare (ik hes playing better lately tho)
ence still deserve some time
feels like Astralis playing against a mix team

It's hard to feel bad for Faze. They fully deserve whatever is happening to them specially with Niko on the team. Niko's comment in an interview towards the end of 2018 was the biggest joke of the year - 'The biggest goal for next year is just to knock Astralis off the top, that is my biggest motivation. I am too tired of watching them win everything this year.'
Not even a top 20 team (21 atm). I guess that Major loss to cloud9 really really fucked with their heads.
I don't even know where to start. I think they even acknowledged in one of the interviews that kicking Karrigan was a mistake. Yeah, no shit that it was one of the dumbest things you could have done considering you had no real IGL to replace him with.
I think Olof is still good and Broky is young so he'll definitely get better. I feel the problem is the 3 "star" players. One of whom is an IGL and is nowhere near as good as he used to be and it's unlikely he'll get that form back. Rain is inconsistent as fuck. Coldzera I can't blame him much since he's recently joined but I don't know how much he can improve this team overall.
bottom line is faze shit and they won't ever accomplish anything because of niko
All the problems started with karrigan being kicked. He never was the problem. Look what he's doing with Mousesports.
Agreed. Definitely didn't think he was the problem. Even when it came to fragging I don't think he was bad. I mean, you've got a team of 4 superstars, as an IGL you're probably 4th or 5th on the scoreboard most of the time.
Yeah, an obvious thing that NiKo didn’t manage to see.
And now the ship is sinking, and everybody is going down with it.
Yup. It's kind of sad now that I think about it. They were really good at one point and I genuinely thought finally a team to challenge Astralis. Imagine if Faze was somewhat decent, we would have quite the competition.
Astralis, Liquid
Vitality (I think they can only get better and Shox has to step up) and Fnatic looking good recently.
Other hit or miss teams - G2, Navi, Mouz, NIP looking decent but definitely nowhere near top 5, Ence, EG
Rip Hunter's cousin's team ;(
for 1 million dollars btw
couldve gotten zywoo with that money
emil reif #1 2019.
number 1 vs nonamers
NiKo?
I think they have to - ynk , get some respected coach and make niko shut the fuck up and force him to just concantrate on getting kills , not being a diva
Turk with brain never would I have thought I would see one.
Ynk revelead himself as a great disappointment, tbh...
He tried to pursue a career outside commentator box, which I honestly agree anyone is entitled to do so.
Except... Mibr prove him wrong; Faze is doing it as well and it seems there's nobody in there able to put Niko on the place he belongs which is to follow a plan, mainly when is brainless on that particular department. Result: Faze lost a top team and csgo lost an amazing player... And, agreeing that Niko he's too "tunnel vision" to see that as a fact, it's unacceptable that Faze itself refuses to see the obvious.
Probably, Niko will post another tweet abt Hltv comments and how non relevant they are, even if he bothers to comment about it...

When you skip to 5:05 you can see that Coldzera gets hit by device while he is on A site. He hit him trough a wall. Also glaive could not have seen Coldzera because there were smoked. Glaive still smoke hacking or device wall hacking.
rofl
Coldzera OMEGALUL
#savebroky
I think everyone in the team had/have too much unjust respect for NiKo. Karrigan said when he left, that the "team" lacked confidence in his calls. Maybe this was NiKo voicing and infecting the other players.
Everyone has ups and downs, even IGL's, and you gotta give them time and trust to help them through it, and that means calls that won't work at first, but with some finesse later can work wonders in the right circumstance. But you gotta try and experiment a bit.
I'm glad FaZe is down the shitter, they had this coming, just hope they take valuable lesson from this.
