FaZe confirm coldzera signing

26-9-2019 05:36

FaZe have completed the signing of Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David from MIBR, the two organisations announced on Thursday.

The two-time player of the year finally inked a deal with FaZe after protracted talks between the two organisations, and will make his debut for the team on Thursday at ESL One New York.

In the European team, coldzera will finally fulfill his dream of playing alongside Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač, who is expected to become the in-game leader once again after admitting in an interview with HLTV.org that he could pick up the baton "if that is what the team needs".

coldzera is FaZe's new fifth player

The Brazilian player follows Helvijs "⁠broky⁠" Saukants as FaZe's second post-Major reinforcement, helping to fill the gaps left by the departures of Ladislav "⁠GuardiaN⁠" Kovács and Filip "⁠NEO⁠" Kubski. The Latvian player, formerly of Epsilon, is currently on trial and will play with the team at least until the end of the ESL Pro League Season 10 group stage.

"I'm really excited to be part of this great organization and I'm looking forward to playing with these guys," coldzera wrote in an Instagram post.

"Thank you for everything, MIBR. We had some great memories together and I always cherish that. Now it is going to be a new challenge and I going to give my best to make it work.

"To my Brazilian fans: even though I am no longer in a Brazilian team, I will always represent each and every one of you."

This will be the first international challenge of coldzera's career. He rose to notoriety in 2015 after joining Luminosity and played a vital role as the team won a series of international titles in the following two years (first under the North American organisation and then under SK), including back-to-back Major titles at MLG Columbus and ESL One Cologne.

He became the second player in Counter-Strike history to be named player of the year on two occasions, beating his now teammate NiKo for the honor in 2017.

The team went through a trophy-dry spell between 2018 and the summer of 2019, prompting coldzera to request to be moved to the bench - a thought he had already entertained in the past. He suggested playing three more events with MIBR, including the StarLadder Major, but the team rejected that possibility and chose to play with coach Wilton "⁠zews⁠" Prado instead.

Two weeks ago, coldzera played his first tournament since leaving MIBR as he attended Belgrade Open #3, a Serbian LAN, alongside NiKo and coach Janko "⁠YNk⁠" Paunović. The team, called iNation, ended up being eliminated in the quarter-finals by eventual champions BLUEJAYS.

coldzera is already in New York with the rest of the squad as he prepares to play his first match in a FaZe jersey, against NRG. Astralis and OpTic make up the rest of Group B for the North American event, where $200,000 will be on offer.

With coldzera's addition, FaZe now have:

Håvard "⁠rain⁠" Nygaard
Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač
Olof "⁠olofmeister⁠" Kajbjer
Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David
Helvijs "⁠broky⁠" Saukants (trial)

Janko "⁠YNk⁠" Paunović (coach)

My 211 MM bans (ranging from 30 minutes to 7 day (+2, month long bans) would also contribute to the toxicity of this roster. We'd create the first Esports Drama as a YouTube/Snapchat series. It'd be a hit. Get a nice toxic teamhouse going, maybe add Stew to the mix. -broky +stew -rain +kNg -YnK +JW (Coach) +IdrA as the team's cook. +NaNiwa as PR manager. +Stephano as team doctor and psychologist. So down.

2019-09-26 08:19

We don't need every member within to be toxic to eachother, creating drama with other teams will only encourage the rest of us to be toxic and dramatic and create a revolving loop of chaos. It's perfect for prime time entertainment.

What about him replacing taco?

2019-09-26 14:29

liquids problem was never the fifth player, they would have reached the point they were at with or without taco as nothing from their game changed apart from the fact that the star players just didnt choke so often on big games like they used to, which seems to still be the reality at majors tho.

Way too easy for SK Gaming, the best team that has ever existed in all versions of Counter Strike. This record-breaking machine, also known as "team", is composed by: Gabriel Toledo - Fallen: The best sniper and In-Game Leader that ever existed in this game that people call Counter Strike.When the enemies press TAB and see his name on the other team, they instantly choke and lose all their composure, hence losing the match, just ask Team Liquid and they will tell you all about this. Fernando Alvarenga - Fer: The best player of 2017 so far. His play style is so good that the enemies can't even see where he is on the map. If you think Fer is in one place and you go and check that place you'll find out that he's not there and is actually behind you and by this time you have already been knifed and humiliated by the best lurker that ever played this game. Enemies choke just by seeing his model in-game, just ask TaZ and he will tell you more about it. João Vasconcelos - Felps: The Brazilian revelation who is following in the footsteps of Fer, and after Fer gets #1 in HLTV Top 20 players of 2017, Felps will get #1 in 2018's TOP 20. Just like Fer, Felps is a beast, no one can beat him in a 1v1, his aim is just too good for anybody to ever kill him when facing each other. His play style is the most aggressive I've ever seen, even more than Fer's, and that's what makes him so good. Marcelo David - Coldzera: Also known as GODZERA he is without a doubt the best player that ever played this game. Fallen is the best sniper and IGL, but Coldzera... Oh Coldzera, what can I even say about this man? He's like the Messi and CR7 of CS:GO, he's not from this planet. His aim is always on point, his game sense is impecable, he is also the smartest player that ever existed and the most humble one also, because a player of his skill level you'd think that he'd play as the team star or IGL, but no, he plays a support. But Cold (or GOD) can play any role and he'll still be better than 100% of the players. You know why? Because Coldzera has magic! Good players win titles, amazing players break records, Coldzera breaks the rules! You can stay with your stats that I'll stay with the magic! You prefer the stats, I prefer tha magic, I prefer COLDZERA! Epitácio de Melo - TACO: You might get fooled by his stats not being so good as his other 4 teammates, but just watch any SK match and you will see why TACO is the best entry fragger in the world and best solo B player ever. He's so versatile, you can give him any weapon, even an AWP, and put him alone in any B bombsite of any map and he'll humiliate all the players of the other team by his amazing skill and outstanding positioning as well as his out-of-this-world game sense. He's one of the smartest players that ever played this game and you know that. As a Terrorist just put him in front of the line and he'll win dominate the bombsite all by himself, and even die so that his team can plant the bomb! Tell me if this isn't the best thing a player could do? Give his life and give up having good stats so that his team can succeed? I can't hold back the tears anymore, damn my keyboard is all wet now... I'll have to stop here. TACO <3 And this is why this is an easy match for the best team that ever existed.

2019-09-26 08:37

Nexa is IGL as well. Adding 2 would be pointless. Also AleksiB > NBK. Also Niko in his infinite wisdom doesn't want actual good IGL's he'd rather bomb out of tournaments with his "superior" "strats".

2019-09-26 13:21

Ofc not, their leadership and tactics will be garbage and theyll probably have make another roster change soon to get an IGL if their results are shit with NiKo leading

2019-09-26 07:10

"Firepower" silver/nova spotted

I know that firepower doesnt translate to an automatically good team, their strategies and leadership will probs be garbage. But on paper this team from a sheer skill level is insane, even just from an objective standpoint

2019-09-26 07:05

They're all star players, on paper this team is objectively trash

2019-09-26 07:32

Did you not read the part where i said from a sheer skill level. I know that this team is all star players and will probably crumble, but looking at it from a sheer skill level and skill only this team looks scary. They will probably need to get an IGL in place of someone soon though, otherwise the team will crumble

2019-09-26 08:48

I don't think you understand that the aspect of working well with the team is inseparable from your "sheer skill level"

so why did Niko lie?

Gl FaZe and Coldzera!!!

Good now -olof and get aleksi ez majors for next 2-3 years

Why does FaZe hurt your feelings so much? Why? It's amazing how much hate people here have towards FaZe, it's not SMASH, Windigo or some other international team it's FaZe. Because you envy this team, and eventually, it's just a matter of time to start dominating. Anyone denying that can see all the daily threads made by FaZe haters not fans.

2019-09-26 11:48

I dont hate faze i just want them to be better and they need an igl since karrigan left so olof leaves for fnatic and aleksi comes in its a win win for 2 teams

The superteam that can beat Astralis?

no, not at all.

2019-09-26 06:07

now I'm hyped

baitzera is back

mibr: we want 1m for a washed u.... faze: yes

Who cares , niko and rain are bots now , brooky only good in fpl

So sad that niko is so inconsistent rn. Still a fan tho.

2019-09-26 06:10

I am not fan of FaZe anynore due to zera

2019-09-26 07:43

thanks, they signed a person who can bait and aims when he wants but not a actual igl. gg

Thanks G1ave for the leak

LETS GO

So this team will fall because their best player is an IGL just like G2? My best version of faze : Ynk (igl) Coldzera NiKo Rain Olofmeister Zews/Jumpy (coach)

Olof should be igl

2019-09-26 16:16

good luck GOAT godzera

3 star players pepelaugh another failed lineup

Against EG*

SUPER EXPECTED

Marcelo David - Coldzera: Also known as GODZERA he is without a doubt the best player that ever played this game. Fallen is the best sniper and IGL, but Coldzera... Oh Coldzera, what can I even say about this man? He's like the Messi and CR7 of CS:GO, he's not from this planet. His aim is always on point, his game sense is impecable, he is also the smartest player that ever existed and the most humble one also, because a player of his skill level you'd think that he'd play as the team star or IGL, but no, he plays a support. But Cold (or GOD) can play any role and he'll still be better than 100% of the players. You know why? Because Coldzera has magic! Good players win titles, amazing players break records, Coldzera breaks the rules! You can stay with your stats that I'll stay with the magic! You prefer the stats, I prefer tha magic, I prefer COLDZERA!

theres a word for this

2019-09-26 08:07

who?

2019-09-26 06:13

EXPECTED, im hyped to see how they will play, roles, teamplay, tactics... Can Mr. Niko IGL again? We will see tomorrow.

holy fk its true

2019-09-26 07:03

2019-09-26 07:04

Now i'm hype

2019-09-26 07:09

Cool

Wow I'm shocked :ooo

BORA COLD

faze doing same mistakes over and over again. Still no proper IGL.

peanut brain niko with his fetish for washed up "stars".

2019-09-26 07:19

No awp no igl Lez go

2019-09-26 07:18

hahah +1

2019-09-26 07:35

Good for him, he deserves it.

2019-09-26 07:20

2019-09-26 07:21

THE NUMBER ONE IS BACK !

EXPECTED

2019-09-26 07:22

faze still doesnt know what the real problem is.

2019-09-26 07:24

how should they know if they are the real problem??

2019-09-26 07:26

Faze the retirement home for washed up CS:GO players. I assume brosky will act as their caretaker.

Lets goooooo FAZE UPPP

2019-09-26 07:31

:( 👎 send him back to Brazil

Goat

Broky is here becouse cold needs a bait to kill

was hoping this wouldnt happen but i guess i gotta cheer for faze now

I was hoping it wouldn't happen, but I guess I am not FaZe fan anymore now

2019-09-26 07:52

This roster will rekt everyone But! They must get proper igl instead of broky

Faze is yaaaaw... sadly. Stars fighting over being allowed to be supported to get kills. Would be fun if it worked somehow. Insane players ofc. But they are not just stars from pure skill, but also because their teams have given them the opportunity to fulfill that "role" by giving them the confidence. But at the same time I like it when everyone supports everyone.. if they can make that happen I think this could get interesting. But coldzera has to be set up fir bait plays

2019-09-26 07:38

Still can’t beat mouz

2019-09-26 07:41

Hottest transfer

2019-09-26 07:42

Lol kick after 3 months

Dunno why everyone here is crying.. sick move... Go FaZe!!!

Expected AF

2019-09-26 07:47

POGGERS THANK GOD!!!!!!!

2019-09-26 07:53

Still no awper or real IGL, Cold is sick but idk if he can make up for all that and the other issues FaZe already has.

So olof is awping? I hope to see LGB olof.

2019-09-26 07:59

Surely faze shouldn't be EU flag anymore?

16 replies

wdym? only 1 player is not from EU

15 replies

Norway - Not in EU Bosnia - Not in EU Brazil - Not in EU 3/5 none eu

It's Europe not European union

European Union flag =/= Europe

2019-09-26 13:53

what does the union have to do with this? we are talking about the continent

2019-09-26 18:03

The circle of stars is insignia of union not the continent

2019-09-26 18:18

the european flag can be used for both, "The Flag of Europe or European Flag [a], is an official symbol adopted by two separate organisations, the Council of Europe (CoE) as a symbol for the whole of Europe[3], and the European Union"

2019-09-26 18:24

Yeah Mr Hitler below corrected me I was wrong

2019-09-26 19:30

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Europe

2019-09-27 12:10

Hitler already told me bro

2019-09-27 12:19

Norway not EU HAHAHAHAHAHA just kys

2019-09-26 13:47

They aren't member so it's false to use Eu flag for a team of none eu members

The flag isn't about political/economical blocks, you moron. Norway is located in Europe, therefore, european flag, end of story.

2019-09-26 13:57

EU flag =\= Europe flag Ty for nice compliments sane german

2019-09-26 14:16

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Europe It's the same, you're wrong. Get out of there

2019-09-26 18:44

ok i did not know that sorry toxic mr hitler

2019-09-26 19:29

that feel when you are a random Latvian gamer and one day you play with coldzera in your team 😯👯‍♂️💃💅💅💫🤠

and niko and rain and olof maybe?

2019-09-26 12:06

FaZe top1 !!

Finally !

They have 2 toxic players in team Niko and Cold. Unexperienced Broky who will choke against top teams. Old Olof who cant even spray. Only Rain is good. Expected disband after another lost major.

2019-09-26 08:06

Disband in 2 months toxic players in the team expected

FAZE ERA INCOMING

2019-09-26 08:08

jesus fucking christ mens (( cold is good but why let niko igl, so much wasted firepower, just kick broky and get aleksib

2019-09-26 08:10

-olof +aleksib

2019-09-26 08:14

I have waken up and seen this, OK night, let's see, what's gonna happen!

Niko and Cold both need a player to bait for Them. And who will IGL? niko? He is not skilled enough.

ExPeCtEd

Everyone saw this coming

2019-09-26 08:12

2019-09-26 08:28

Its gonna be night here, like 12.05 AM. My sleep schedule is so fcuked up, But i will watch this match anyway I could, I waited so long for this. Finally something exciting in CS u know.

2019-09-26 08:45

i just hope they can make playoffs that way I can see them live but it’s understandable if they don’t

2019-09-26 08:50

If they beat NRG they will make it to playoff for sure.

Yeah the groups are stacked though and the way NRG has been playing it’s either gonna be a complete domination or FaZe win but score will be like 16-13 on each map

kick bot niko

2019-09-26 08:33

Expected, 2 months before they flop again,

2019-09-26 08:34

This gonna be good

2019-09-26 08:35

Wow

2019-09-26 08:38

ESL NY 2019 winners.... remember this comment

2019-09-26 08:40

lol wtf FaZe pick up all the rejected players. what a joke..

rejected? Cold wasnt rejected. I asked MIBR to bench him because he was sick of being most consistent player in team while rest were playing like garbage.

2019-09-26 08:43

I would like to see -olof +aleksib

Faze still dont learn from their mistakes😂♿️ Lets see in 3 months lmao. 👎

OMG SO UNEXPECTED XOOOO

Lets Go!!

Lets gooooo!!!!

2019-09-26 08:55

Lets hope the core regain some motivation and the young gun performs. Very imteresting team but im not convinced about broky yet!

2019-09-26 08:56

- Olof and Brokky + Nexa and Hunter(inGame) that would be great)

2019-09-26 08:57

2019-09-26 09:07

on paper they are the strongest team on earth. But i dont expect them to blend well. I really believe in broky he is such a talented player!

How much they paid to mibr for cold?

FAZE UP

Best news to read in the morning!! #FaZeUp

"faze dont have the money for cold" hltv low iq users said

Bro if u see the different sources, NiKo and cold needed to contribute to the buyout with their own savinngs in order the contract to be valid

Bro thats bullshit where did u read that? Faze even had 5milions to buy him , they just didnt wanna spend more money into cs.

2019-09-26 10:18

Just rumors , different threads here

2019-09-26 10:22

Just rumors, different threads here hahajhjjhhhahahahahhahhahh No real report, nothing but hltv threads Perfect example of 0iq hltv users

bot_rain bot_NiKo botmeister cheatzera noname & ResidentSleeper

Honestly what a retarded signing. Should have got a better player. baitzera most overrated player.

2019-09-26 09:16

Is anyone really surprised?

2019-09-26 09:17

Nice move, finally. They still have washed up olof tho

Bro where the fuck is the fantasy

-broky +guardian ez

If GuardiaN can find good consistency.

2019-09-26 10:09

2019-09-26 11:04

Totally unexpected ))))

2019-09-26 09:24

a good commitment! at the moment 5 invidele players but maybe you will grow up to a team! who will be suport player? Niko? :) Face is my favorite team from today! love it

About damn time! Let's goooo!

2019-09-26 09:25

toxiclan top 1

2019-09-26 11:44

no igl no awp toxicity over 9000 with cold AND niko i dont see how this can work but yeah ...

2019-09-26 09:35

2019-09-26 09:40

Still no IGL and coach. Bring as many "star players" as you can...

currently there’s only 1 star and it’s cold (rest washed up) and maybe broky

Niko has had 1 bad tournament where olof was one of the best players of the whole tournament.. Rain is a support player.. and they replaced the worst 2 players on the team. yet heres donkeys like you thinking they know anything about cs LOL

2019-09-26 10:03

No need to call anyone names. Thank you.

2019-09-26 14:54

Whatever. Team has no IGL, no coach and 2 of the most toxic egomaniacs now. I wish them best but I just can't imagine this working after maybe some honeymoon phase.

Nice!

gg disband

2019-09-26 09:39

ITS DOUBLE FOR COLD. OMFG HOW DID HE DO THIS

The first face is Ethan he is gonna hit the ground, OHOHO WHAT??!! THE JUMPING DOUBLE FROM COLD, WHAT IS GOING ON RIGHT NOW, HOW DOES HE DO THIS???? Cold has saved FaZe Clan with the AWP play, unthinkable scenes in the B Appartements.

2019-09-26 10:13

I’m surprised Faze spent a bunch of money. But let’s go faze. Hopefully a lot better now.

2019-09-26 10:15

2019-09-26 10:38

Why not? Was rumored for months

2019-09-26 11:13

Sarcasm my fellow innocent friend!

2019-09-26 12:07

First 5 matches will be nice after its gg

2019-09-26 10:40

Egocentric, low-key douchebag piece of player. Whatever life’s on for him, the least I can expect is a good performance at FaZe, of course if his ego don’t mess everything up.

he can be all that you said. still a world class proven player and what matters in the server is the skill. bye

I'm not denying his skills btw.

2019-09-26 19:06

Prediction for the end of the year, FaZe is a Top 2 team.

2019-09-26 10:48

top one you mean

neo better... fu*kin NiKo played bad last lans.... he knew they will kick neo it was sad to watch Niko playing like ok neo you are good you made the best but go away cuz coldzera is going to be on your place

2019-09-26 10:50

AHHAHAAHAHA

2019-09-26 10:51

hahahah cool write something more dude

ahahahhhah flag checks out

2019-09-26 11:11

? what is the problem?

2019-09-26 11:33

Best Move But i think in future they will soon realize that they have to make one more change.

Baitzera to bait broky and drop 50 bombs per map

no AWP no propper IGL :DDD and you spend 1 million + jesus,what a management

Latvia OMEGALUL

nt no scene broky is in faze and hes from latvia

Hunter and Niko have Serbian citizenship What about nexa? CRY is free latvian

2019-09-26 11:14

wtf im not latvian

2019-09-26 11:43

Most likely they'll try turning either broky or Olof into a full time AWP, which i guess is fine but kinda a waste of a good rifler.

2019-09-26 12:56

olof is rly bad past last year :( and i don`t think he will be good against top10 snipers ,as well as top10 teams with his awp,and still they dont have good IGL

2019-09-26 13:01

No i agree, they'll most likely cut someone (broky/Olof depending on performance) Before 2020. All i'm hoping is that they won't ruin broky's career by forcing him into a role he's not confident in, i feel like that tends to happen when you put a young talent in a team full of egos.

2019-09-26 13:05

another skill based roster without a good leader. lets see them not make top8 in a relevant event and the shitstorm starts again

2019-09-26 11:02

what else do you expect from NiKo Clan?

i expect them to get a good ingame leader, the most obvious example being aleksib, and not more world-class fraggers. firepower can only get you so far

2019-09-26 17:39

HOLY SHIT

What a big surprise right?

woW

nt dead scene Whats so surprising? it was rumored for months

this is so fucking funny how faze waste so much money on top players and they can"t win shiet xDD

tier 2

2019-09-26 12:24

Great news! So excited to see them playing together! FaZe for the win!

2019-09-26 12:25

I wish lucky and happiness for Cold!

2019-09-26 12:27

Good lucky Cold, and please stop beening toxic...

2019-09-26 12:30

-broky +igl

Two weeks ago, coldzera played his first tournament since leaving MIBR as he attended Belgrade Open #3, a Serbian LAN, alongside NiKo and coach Janko "YNk" Paunović. The team, called iNation, ended up being eliminated in the quarter-finals by eventual champions BLUEJAYS.

2019-09-26 12:31

dont forget they were playing with kassad and other dude that doesnt lay pro cs, +ynk also. cold carried hard the whole tournament. now playing w/ the likes of rain, olof and broky, we will see what they are capable of

2019-09-26 18:53

Wow such beast of a team on paper

2019-09-26 12:34

Nice. Will be interesting to see them

2019-09-26 12:36

all aimers...its gonna be failure i think.

This is not gonna work. This team have nothing but firepower. Max 4-5 months to disband.

2019-09-26 12:38

5 world class riflers they have so much potential win tier 1 tournaments

2019-09-26 12:42

There is something called "teamwork" everyone in team should have different styles to fulfill a great team + language is a problem too. Look at Astralis for example. They may not be world class players based on individual but they got an amazing teamplay + language isnt a problem for them.

2019-09-26 12:51

2019-09-26 13:04

Sure, they are average bot players with great chemistry...

Astralis doesn't have world class players? ahahhaha most retarded thing I've read on HLTV in my entire life hahaha are you retarded??? the only other team in the scene that can match them in individual talent is maybe Liquid and that's it

2019-09-26 16:01

I said based on "individual" are u stupid? Brainless retard.

device and magisk both top 5 players in 2019, xyp9x one of if not the best and most consistent support and clutcher in the game, gla1ve one of the best fragging IGLs. individually they're great you dumb piece of shit, it's not some "teamplay beats individual talent" bullshit it's teamplay AND world class individuals

2019-09-26 17:08

Ofc it is teamplay and world class individuals to success but u need right players to get a perfect teamplay. On paper, this faze roster have best players in the world but they all have same in game roles. If u think u gonna succeed with 5 same kind of players, u are just a stupid piece of shit im sorry.And btw; Average players with good teamwork will always beat teams with better individual but worse teamwork. This is why most of time we see upsets in these matches. So, fuck off already please.

2019-09-26 19:07

lmao if you think this FaZe currently have the best players then you clearly don't watch CS. rain is well past his peak form, olof is good from time to time but not a top 20 player, cold is just as his name suggests cold product not having played top CS for a while, NiKo is the only world class player on FaZe but even he is in a slump. broky unproven FPL kid. sorry but you're just a retard who don't know shit and don't follow the scene at all

2019-09-26 19:16

"they may not be worldclass" shut the f p dude. jesus christ. they're top20 players and role by role, they are the best or 2nd best. dev1ce best awper after s1 xyp9x best support gla1ve best igl dupreeh best entry magisk best lurker now WTF u on about?

2019-09-26 18:51

That's what he say. Check his message at upper before you talk shit. They do their role perfectly with a great team work but their individual may not be good as s1mple,coldzera and etc... This is why this FaZe roster not gonna work. Their in game role is just fucked up with same kind of players.

2019-09-26 19:20

but their individual is just as good IF NOT BETTER dude... only s1mple is better than dev1ce, now find me better igl than gla1ve and rest of roles..

2019-09-26 19:57

What a surprise...…. well not really.....

IT HAPPENED

2019-09-26 12:44

im so happy

axaxaxaxa

2019-09-26 12:45

Very nice, i have been waiting for this to happen. i think this is the best for FaZe only worry i have is this broky i dont know anything about him.. but i guess time will tell if he can compete on the highest level

2019-09-26 12:55

2019-09-26 12:59

EZ NOW

*pretends to be shocked* Can't wait to see NiKo & cold play together, it will be a scary duo. Also, broky has huge potential, hopefully he does even half as decent as he does in FPL. On paper, this team is championship level for sure. GL

2019-09-26 13:15

we brazilians already knew that, like 2 months ago ahhahaha GL to Judaszera

2019-09-26 13:28

Well... Everyone did

JUDASZERA KKKKKK u must be an favela guy neymar is judas too bcs he left santos, a BR organization with BR players and BR friends, to play for fucking barcelona? grow up kiddo

2019-09-26 14:30

Different situations leaving a team when the major was about to start, and then say "he was thinking this for months" BUT HE SIGNED UP TO PLAY IN THE MAJOR ANYWAY ! After that, saying bad things about other players who don't even touched the subject via twitter Who's need to grow up ? seriously...

2019-09-26 17:13

1 million dollars+ down the drain. 5-6th placement at ESL New YOrk incoming.

2019-09-26 13:49

Too expensive

LETS GOOOO BRAZILIAN FAZE FANS UNITE

2019-09-26 14:05

FaZe - the team where washed up players go to die. I wonder when FaZe will start to take risks and invest in young, promising new players instead of going from one washed up, former big name to the next washed up, former big name. And yes, I'm fully aware that this also goes for Olof.

2019-09-26 14:09

did you miss the broky signing or...?

2019-09-26 15:50

first of all hes on trial, second, other 4 dudes are washed up topkek. other teams signing 2/3/4 newbloods (looking at ence), these dinos wont achieve shit 😋
