Faze maybe had a bad day? Or like other say its hard to predict these teams when you never play them.

Maybe, but guardian said before the match that faze played practice against vega so they knew how they play.

2018-01-15 20:07

Let's be honest, vega is just pushing smokes like retards, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. they were lucky that it worked on that game, I doubt they could repeat it in bo3.

2018-01-15 20:10

That might be true but that time it worked and Vega was better than Faze.

We will see, time will tell my friend.

2018-01-15 20:21

what else you need to see? how many times you need to see faze get destroyed by Schroet Kommando?

2018-01-15 20:53

I don't understand people like you. Faze has a new team, what do you expect. Give them some time and then you can judge

2018-01-15 21:09

new team in what? they been playing cs for a long time my friend, they know what to do

2018-01-15 22:12

every team has ups and downs and in epic centre Rainmosta was so sick, and as far as i know Olof wasn't in his full conscious at ESL pro league finals. they had only played two bo3 with this new line up, they're grinding and getting better. Hopefully we'll get to see some good results in Major.

2018-01-16 05:59

It's about teamplay mate. Not only about individuals. And at this point Faze can still improve a lot. I have a lot of respect for sk, but It seems like you guys don't want to acknowledge the capabilities of others. Or it's just basic trashtalk because it's the typical toxic cs community

2018-01-16 15:19

ez for rain <3

Faze doing their best to get this tournament back on schedule Guardian was basically spectating lol. It also looks like Niko is all better And who would have thought Zeus wouldn't be the weak link? Maybe he's just a great train player

Nice

The reason why they call him MONSTAHHHHH

wow they actually qualified for the major gj... hopefully they can beat good teams

The only team they couldn't beat is SK. They beat every other team lol so stfu

Vega? Stop being a fangay dude

2018-01-15 20:09

It's a BO1 you motherfuckin gypsie. I hope they'll face again in the major we'll see how FaZe will piss on them

Might be a tough match for both teams, and I would love to see FaZe win that game, but I'm really tired of hltv users simply gloring/fangaying and overhyping FaZe. They are not a superteam, they never said they are.

2018-01-15 20:18

I think you're baiting so not gonna argue with you

2018-01-15 20:29

Lmao didn’t bait since signing up on HLTV, sry

2018-01-15 20:35

yah but they lost to vega in this tournament played pretty bad vs against team liquid with zews... telling me that their form is kind of shit

Telling me the competetive level of nowadays CS. So many teams that can upset and the level is so close that often it's up to wich team is fired up today and playing wich confidence and wich team don't. There are no unbeatable teams today.. But some are concistently better than others. Faze are in good enough form to win the whole major, and so is SK and a few others. Buy plenty of teams are good enough to upset.. ecpesially in BO1

2018-01-15 22:36

Not Vega though)

ez for mah boi rain

Rain top1 2018

navi so bad

Don’t be so shitty man, stop making this racist comments; this is exactly why all SK fans hate us FaZe fans, just stop, please.

rain so beast

Rain best player 2018 confirmed

I seriously thought s1mple had it all in his hands at the end, so unlucky... GGWP FaZe, hope they make it to semis at the very least and that Na'Vi still qualify

never legend hehehe

Faze has 60% hahahahah which idiot bet on navi , shit team always rely on simple to carry their shitty ass . Get rekt

Lmao odds were FaZe 49.9 and NaVi 50.1. Thx for the money idiots

Finally a very good game by olof, the last few weren’t that good by him

just disband

God Rain ez for my Boiz <3

Olof, Rain and Niko topfragging thats how its meant to be and then you got guardian that needs to hit his shots and karrigan well he stays Karigan. MVP Rain for sure

If olof rain and niko could play everytime like they did today , faze would have been unstoppable. :(

lol zeus top fragging

SO FUCKING EZ LUL

Just disband Its over

I thought train is CT sided xD

chill navi saving strats for major, oh wait

Zeus will remember the day he outfragged s1mple forever

As I said in another topic, Navi is the kind of team that Faze eats alive: too easy to read, with poor CT mix ups in terms of agression. The whole Navi game plan as ct was to pick up a double awp and hope for the best.
