    Been a fan of the team since they were Kinguin (with only Rain remaining). Frustrating affair, just how close they've gotten so many times, but cruel twists of fate prevented them time and time again. How Faze are even considered a top 10 team right now, is to me strange. They seem to inexplicably be able to lose to just about anyone these days.

      @empi955 5 лет назад +2

      ​@@gordonramsdale Yeah, Olof is definitely the one they should've cut a long time ago, no offense to him. But GuardiaN and rain have to be considered aswell, one move will probably not suffice to fix the massive issues that FaZe have right now. Right now I'd probably cut Olof immediately, then NEO if he doesn't do the team any good in the upcoming tournaments, and lastly if needed GuardiaN, because I feel like he's been very unmotivated and there are AWPers out there who currently seem to have more potential, even if it's being wasted. I might keep rain, because while he is inconsistent, he still does a lot of entry work for the team, and he still shows flashes of brilliance at a somewhat frequent rate. It's hard to predict which addition would prove to be the best, but if FaZe have the money I'd love it if they could get karrigan back, which, in spite of all the issues FaZe have had even with him, still seems to be the best move. Of course any other proven IGL could work, preferably somebody who has experience with playing internationally. Then I'd add chrisJ, he's an overqualified support, he's super versatile and would be a perfect fit in my opinion. Lastly, I'd consider AWPers such as w0xic or oskar or any other AWPer. The dream would obviously be s1mple, but that ain't happening in the near future. One last perhaps slightly crazy idea would be to just hand over the AWP to NiKo, I imagine if he practices it more frequently he could become very good with it. He seems to enjoy AWPing aswell. What do you think?

    @dny9312 5 лет назад

    A decent summary of the era that could be, but Thorin spends more time here explaining why other teams shouldn't have beat Faze than actually explaining what went wrong for Faze. Or for that matter why other teams were able to upset them.
    Cloud9 for instance were making significant strides on multiple maps (most notably Inferno and Overpass) just prior to the major that went largely unnoticed by analysts whose attention were fixed on Faze, SK, Liquid, Mouz, etc.
    Fnatic were playing what was likely to be Golden's last event with the team, and motivated by a particularly poor showing just prior to Katowice where they got bounced 0-3 from a groupstage for the first time. One player (Flusha) having a revitalized performance does not win a bo5 series.
