FaZe invited to ESL One Cologne

Despite a lack of titles in 2018 and a roster shakeup that saw Richard "⁠Xizt⁠" Landström, at least temporarily, replace Olof "⁠olofmeister⁠" Kajbjer, FaZe still sit at the top of our rankings. Their strong position in the scene saw them invited to ESL One Cologne 2018, the $300,000 tournament that will take place on July 3-8.

At the last year's edition of the tournament, FaZe weren't able to make it past SK, who eliminated them in the semi-final, with the Brazilians later on winning the tournament over Cloud9. Both of those teams are already confirmed for ESL One Cologne, as well as fnatic, who defeated FaZe in the grand final of IEM Katowice this March.

As of now, the following teams have been confirmed for the tournament:

SK	Cloud9
fnatic	FaZe
