FaZe win EPICENTER over Natus Vincere

28-10-2018 18:37

FaZe have broken their title duck with a triumph over Natus Vincere in the EPICENTER 2018 grand final (2-0; Mirage 16-12, Dust2 16-3).

The grand final began on FaZe's pick, Mirage, where Natus Vincere's star duo got off to a great start as they combined for five in the pistol round, retaking the A bombsite without losing anyone.

However, the European mixture started setting a quick pace to the match from the first gunround on, converting several quick A plays, leaving little for Na`Vi as they racked up an 8-2 lead on the back of that momentum. Danylo "⁠Zeus⁠" Teslenko & co. finally replied with three out of the last five rounds, though they still gave up a 3v1 to Ladislav "⁠GuardiaN⁠" Kovács's fantastic AWP play in the B bombsite before sides switched.

FaZe pick up their first title since June and their first in 2018 with olofmeister in the roster

FaZe extended their lead to 12-5 with the second pistol going their way, though this time, the first gunround went the other way and Na`Vi closed the gap to four. The home favorites attempted to come back, but some individual plays, including a triple and a 1v1 from Håvard "⁠rain⁠" Nygaard and a quad-kill from Olof "⁠olofmeister⁠" Kajbjer, helped FaZe reach 14 rounds.

After saving their guns a couple of times in a row, the European side closed things out with successful retakes on each bombsite, taking a lead in the series after a 16-12 win on the opener.

FaZe continued their momentum on Dust2, getting up to a 5-0 lead with Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač and olofmeister making key plays for the squad. Natus Vincere managed to grab a couple of rounds, but they could not string them together, as they got reset by 1v2 clutches from the aforementioned Bosnian and Swede after each win.

On the back of the heroics, FaZe extended their lead to 11-2 and soon finalized the half with a 12-3 scoreline. With a second pistol round in the bag as well, it was only a matter of time until Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen's squad emerged victorious at 16-3, 2-0.

ok thank to karrigan

no chance my friend, this is Astralis Era

will see my friend... its jus strted

They are not, this is a tier 2 event

18 replies

NiP, FaZe, Liquid, NaVi tier 2? Lmao All of them are in the top 10.

Tbf its a matter of perspective. Compared to astralis all those teams are t2 if astralis is t1.

2018-10-28 18:47

2018-10-28 18:54

Impossible to only have one t1 team...

I cant see any reason 1 team only can't be T1. Can you give me one?

Tier 2 event ? Astralis and mouz were in initially in the event, then they drop out.And you have 4 teams in top 10, they could of been 6 instead but ..

2018-10-28 22:38

what a boring final better avangar vs faze fun to watch

S1mple rotating with his head in his hand says it all This is the power we know faze always had. They are just like a better virtus pro

Lol. Your last sentence made me laugh :D

Ya. I guess so. But, Astralis are the only team at the moment who can compete with FaZe at top level.

Astralis compete with faze? its more like no one can compete with Astralis you make it sound like faze is the best team.

Haha +1 How does everybody overrate this win so much

Because FaZe played really really good. Probably some of the best they have sense Olof left

2018-10-28 20:56

Not at all. I mean, I never meant FaZe are the best. I just said, if FaZe get back to their peak, only Astralis came tame them. Obviously Astralis is Top1 and are playing impressively well.

a rivalry would be exciting

Yes. Indeed.

2018-10-28 19:21

Still after months, faze are the only team that can put up a fight against astralis. Everyone else gets smashed. Their play styles clash hard

2018-10-28 19:19

i love watching them play

2018-10-28 22:14

MIBR - Astralis 14-16 on third map of BLAST´s FINAL. But I can agree with u, cuz MIBR has to prove yet if that match wasn´t only a very good BO3 of them.

2018-10-29 21:36

Of all my time on HLTV I have never seen a bigger Astralis dick rider. It’s sad that you don’t get paid for this pathetic shaft sucking. They should hire you to give them a BJ before every game.

2018-10-29 05:15

You have a creative mind I’ll give you that. Are you speaking from own experiences or might it be a secret desire of yours that you are to ashamed to live out :O

2018-10-29 08:25

Hahahahah, he's definitely Astralis dick rider!

2018-10-30 09:48

Astralis compete with FaZe??? You do realise FaZe cant even compete with NaVi right? Before this fluke, NaVi have been something like 8-0 against them in recent matches.

2018-10-30 06:09

Oh, you again

2018-10-28 18:40

Fake news

Looool faze's best has fuck all on what astralis are doing

Even I'll be afraid about that, bcoz faze might lose in a finale against a team like cloud9 (boston)

That fluke of a Major ain't happening again.

Who knows? It might happen if faze or faze player chokes. Hope they don't choke like before.

Niko not choking in a final I a good sign. He delivered today!

2018-10-28 19:17

True my brother.

Yes. Wish Niko & co. will deliver as a team in IEM katwoice major & win it. I wanna see Guardian & karrigan win their first major. It feels sad to see both of them having no major when they're nearing the end of their careers (maybe 4-5 years for guardian). I felt like crying when I saw guardian in hopeless 1v3 clutch in inferno last round in Boston Major

2018-10-28 20:07

U mean 1v2 ? It was a mistake for him to stay at the position to peek banana tho, regardless of wut happen, it already over

2018-10-29 14:52

Yeah it was 1v3, he killed one.

2018-10-29 16:11

Forgotten abt it,it was like 10mths ago haha

2018-10-29 16:30

Even I remembered it just because I watched the highlights few days ago. That map decider (inferno) still gives me the goosebumps.

2018-10-29 19:20

Not even a bit, Astralis is so much better than NaVi Liquid and Faze. There is no Team which can beat them constantly

'IF FaZe are back to what they used to be...' Read maybe???

I did? Even if Faze plays like this tournament they cant compare with astralis, there on a complete other level

Ehm kid please.... IEM Sydney 0:3 with xizt instead of olof, but yeah faze can’t be compared with astralis.

So what? Didnt win a Single Map against astralis after this. And all the games in sydney were extremely close

15 replies

Faze is the team who was toughest to beat for Astralis at Faceit major despite Niko taking IGL role literally few days ago. If Niko establish and prove himself as IGL (potentially -karrigan + better player) Astralis should be indeed scared tbh

2018-10-28 19:02

Doesn't matter, Astralis still 2-0'ed them NiP were the only Team besides Liquid that Managed to take a map from Astralis

Ok you are just being stupid ignorant Astralis fan fag, who thinks they will be winning forever. Bye

2018-10-28 19:05

He's dumb leave him alone. When you say FaZe beat them 3-0 at IEM Sydney, they'll say ''It was close, could've gone either way!!!11''. Also when you say the same thing just the other way around at the Faceit Major, Astralis fans are like ''Blah blah FaZe overrated, ez for Astralis'', even tho FaZe could've knock them out at the Major.

2018-10-28 19:29

2018-10-28 20:40

You are dumb as fuck first you say that 3:0 was close,but then u said that Astralis still 2:0'd them at Faceit Major,do i need to remind you that match was close as well. So basically its same thing like in IEM Sydney.

2018-10-28 20:05

Which underlines the fact that Astralis is clearly a better team than Faze

2018-10-29 01:50

+1 Numerous delusional faze kids spotted! I know it’s hard but it’s best just to ignore retards like that.

2018-10-29 08:12

Yeah, normally they are not often here, their just cocky because Navi and Liquid had a bad day

2018-10-29 12:19

they were struggling in the major and still got 2 pretty close maps. niko choked on mirage as well.

2018-10-29 12:21

But you know that FaZe will never win a major?

2018-10-29 12:24

FaZe can easily beat them with the talent that they have.

They even where in playoffs this tournament wtf your talking about delusional kid

Firstly eng 10/10,secondly dont assume my age cuz apparently ur the kid,thirdly they will only able to grp stage with ez teams inside, if they are in the same team as all t1 team,they will get out immediately LOLLLL,and where is nip in most tier 1 event in 2018

2018-10-30 02:44

In slump Oakland gone though Remember that 2017 final?

2018-10-30 02:46

I said "2018", if u cant understand english, get ur hitler to teach u some english lmao, 1 final and u think nip is tier 1?? Cloud 9&gambit won major with a fluke and u will think they are tier 1 as well?????? Silver 1 logic

2018-10-30 02:48

Hahahahahaha never laughed that much There is no tier1 Team except Astralis Just accept that FaZe will NEVER win a major and move on Even lost a Bo3 against G2, cant be Tier 1 though

2018-10-30 02:51

#395......how bout nip LOL,they lost to tier 3 teams as well, yea sure only 1 t1 team in the world with ur kid logic,for ur info, astralis stated clearly all the times that they are afraid of faze cause they are dangerous and their rivarly are 19w-2L-24L

2018-10-30 02:55

What are you even trying to prove? There is NO Team that is better than Astralis. They are so far ahead of everyone else. Just accept it and move on wtf

2018-10-30 02:57

Read all astralis post if u have no idea what u are talking about LOLLLL,they clearly stated that they are afraid of faze cause they are dangerous, get some knowledge before you argue hahahahaha

2018-10-30 03:00

They are humble nothing more, we all know that Astralis is better on Any Map against Faze

2018-10-30 03:01

Furthermore if u gonna talk about iem oakland,why not talk about other times that nip cant even win faze, can nip 3-0 astralis (the strongest team) like faze??? Nahh their firepower and tactical are so weak with their washup mind

2018-10-30 02:52

Iem sydney was a fluke and it wasnt the Astralis era In the Astralis era Faze didnt got a Single Map against them yet, NiP got 2

2018-10-30 02:59

Faze was the underdog during iem sydney,it was a fluke, everyone know it wasnt a fluke,it so obvious amd faze carry ok to win esl ome belo, it just u salty nip fanboys that cant accept that faze are tier 1 alomg with astralis,navi,liquid,mousports

2018-10-30 04:26

Faze still won't win a major

2018-10-31 05:12

Not since magisk joined

Faze are better now than what they ever been before. Nikos calling seems to be very good as I saw Faze do stuff that the old Faze couldnt even dream of. Unless this was just a fluke I think this Faze can challenge Astralis.

2018-10-28 19:51

It was a fluke without any doubt NiP in slump Liquid choking NaVi throwing

2018-10-29 12:27

I think they are back. The way they played Mirage was so good. While Guardian getting consistent now. We have epic matches coming ahead.

Astralis Numba Wun even with faze back

nice that Astralis let some of the lesser teams win at the events they dont attend.

Already forgot iem Sydney and that sweeping in finals?

kinda pathetic that you have to go back 6 months! for a final that could have gone either way so deffo not a sweeping as you claim.. and since then Astralis has won numerous titles including a major and has completely destroyed faze every time they met.. so nt bro xD

hahahha, ok u didn't forget :) do u still have nightmares?

2018-10-28 18:58

Everytime ? What about IEM Sydney ? Hmmmmmmmmmm

Reserved, we'll discuss after couple months.

@clutchkongen like you said ime sydney could of gone either way, I would say like the major, like when they played in ecs, in esl pro league, like one more tournament before the major and the only time astralis dominated was in the eleague premier I think and one of the maps in the pro league(16:7 if i remember).All other times it was really close games.Even Na'Vi and Liquid are destroyed almost every game with astralis so .. it's not correct what you say.FaZe are the only team that can beat Astralis anywehre anytime.Even in interviews Astralis members said that FaZe are the most dangareous team that they can face :)

2018-10-28 22:53

it was a 3-0 with a total round difference of like 6

2018-10-28 22:15

GG FaZe!!

plastic fan of Astralis lololol

kids calling faze back rofl?? wheres the half of the t1 teams haha :D faze isnt even in top 5 listed as u look on the left side of this side bois.

0/8 The only tier 1 team that was missing was astralis , and to be fair the FaZe we saw today , both against liquid and na'vi could have beaten astralis aswell...

faze > astra u suppose????? brb laughing :) do u think that sg would even touch the boys from denmark? i smirked.

Nope , astralis>FaZe any day , this was just a masive overpreformance by FaZe that will probably fade once we reach the next tourney , just sayin this FaZe from today could beat astralis if they ever overperform against them like this...

if they keep that form, BLAST and IEM gonna be exciting

mibr/astralis, what rest of t1 teams?

2018-10-29 12:48

I really hope u are baiting

2018-10-28 19:11

Faze is BACK BOYSSS!!!

unexpected

f##king map pool , Navi played they'r worst maps

FaZe show very good performance 2 last games, idk why they struggle vs t2 before but now show nice CS, gg

FaZe Up

Very easy for FaZe best team in the word currently FaZe UP BOIS

-elec -game

Happy to see this #FaZeUp

ez for Faze

faze up

GuardiaN MVP

another 2-0 result lel,,

WTF is this

So when will s1mple wake the fuck up n leave trash navi?

CSGO continues to prove itself random

YEAH BOIIII

GG FaZe its been a long time since they have a problems with igl.Much deserved and also for navi,they had tried.

EZ Clap

eco/exit fragger aka team baiter aka s1mple fans cry here \_______/

nt baitzera

if simple leave faze maybe can change karrigan for simple :D Or if they hold same form and solve problems then ok dont change roster.

who would igl?

Niko will igl

lmao gl with that

He been igl since faceit major and when he was in mousports,so it all good,his fire power is thr even when he is igl

Wym good luck with that ? They just won a fucking event with him as an IGL...

You are either trolling fag or you have no idea about cs scene since london major. Niko is official IGL since their last place finish in New York also he took IGL role at major when faze were 0:2 down to bring them 3:2

CALLED IT IN GROUPS

FaZe Up! Take down Astralis!

pls give mvp to guardian

FaZe from bots to gods overnight... Okay then. Also, s1v9mple is back. Edward definitely has to go. Both electronic & flamie had a bad series, but we know the firepower is there. On the other hand, Edward has no more excuses to be on the roster. He is just straight dragging the team down. All the respect for him, he's a legend in the game, but he really needs to go.

top2 team btw XD

eZaF

s1mple is the best player in the world. Until the Grand Final

navi always 2nd place it seems like...

quite common, not that sad as a fan..

2018-10-28 20:50

Beyond ez against the biggest finals choker s1mple

CHOKER XD

Funny that you are flaming s1mple and not electronic for example, You cant win 1v5, this is a team game my lil friend.

Yes, and because it is a team game FaZe prevailed today! Nothing much to say. Both s1mple and NiKo played great, but overall NiKo deserves it more imo because won a very dominant final!

2018-10-28 19:03

True. Niko had an amazing final and deserved MVP as well.

GODIAN Must be the MVP in this tournament

Gj gj

It’s exactly year ago faze’s streak of 17 maps wins in row was broken in EPICENTER 2017. Look like faze are here year later to continue their streak from ESL One New York and Eleague xD

The most sad part about navi is that without s1mple they are irrelevant. GGWP Faze #naviforever#2

Faze fangays OMEGALUL

cry lmao

#FAZEUP

omg

thanks faze for ez money <333

Yeaaaah! FaZe is back! So ez btw.

FAZEUP Niko must get MVP

Nope, must be Godian

this could be interesting!

Well that's one more proof that you can carry while ingame leading, and also one more proof that karrigan is shit. What's his excuse now?

They fucking won why do u blame him lol

You didnt get the point obviously.

2018-10-28 19:07

He cant see that karrigan is a bot...and they should bench him already and get a better player

2018-10-28 19:15

Karrigan is playing really well lately.Actually when he is not busy with the IGL role he can be a great fragger.

2018-10-28 23:06

ez for navi

oopsie

2018-10-29 09:00

:( FeelsBadMan

omg s1mpul cant carry these nooobs

Faze crushed navi

Another final, another loss and yet another MVP for s1mple

dogshit in the final, why would he get MVP

He still performed best overall during the whole tournament but Niko got the MVP anyways

2018-10-28 19:39

FaZe played more maps and faced better teams, s1mple farmed stats in group stage and against AVANGAR then played mediocre when it counted the most. Oh, and NiKo got his stats while IGLing as well. This was the easiest MVP pick ever

2018-10-28 19:58

I guess when you put it like that you're right lmao :)

2018-10-28 20:10

Guardian was putting in work. Niko was a monster as usual. But one thing most people are missing rn is olof is slowly returning to his godlike form. He is the master of mid round decisions. And if he returns to his 2015 form, faze will be one hell of a scary roster.

i think FaZe era inc ;p

2018-10-28 19:14

s1mple MVP ??

No it's NiKo check the overview

2018-10-28 19:16

totally unexpected

2018-10-28 19:20

NAVI IS A JOKE

FaZe up yall

Lets blame electronic for clearing B site with a knife =) gg btw, good luck next time i guess

Typical NaVi in finals gg

Well when its 4 horsemen of apocalypse show up at the same time, FaZe can basically run through anyone... And they did.

I presume karrigan is not one of those horsemen?

2018-10-29 17:32

Well even if he clearly played better than the monthes before, ( btw he can make a very good support because he has decent firepower and is usually very smart ingame ) , and 3 of the 4 had a dip down lately, I guess it's pretty obvious he doesn't match their firepower..

2018-10-28 19:36

They top 1 in my heart now

Cry is free navi

poor edward x D

2018-10-28 20:13

Why people cares a lot of the MVP?

Because a player with more mvps more higher ranking,in top 20 For example device was major mvp so he probably will be top 1

2018-10-29 17:23

If i was Astralis i would be scared right now.

2018-10-28 20:28

and ppl still blame Edward Egor 'flamie' Vasilyev 21 - 39 -18 59.4 0.74 Danylo 'Zeus' Teslenko 25 - 37 -12 62.6 0.73 Denis 'electronic' Sharipov 21 - 37 -16 58.8 0.70 Ioann 'Edward' Sukhariev 20 - 33 -13 50.4 0.68

2018-10-28 20:34

>thinks edward is unfairly blaimed for losses >copy pastes edward bottomfragging I get what you're saying though, they all underperformed, or rather got outplayed by Fazes memebers. But in reality Edward does that WAY more often than flamie and especially electronic

2018-10-29 05:48

olof the goat of cs go is reking noobs feels good to watch faze matches again

2018-10-28 20:37

Kudos for faze, surely thought they had almost no chance after poor games first days and overall rough form lately but I suppose once again we saw it is not about how you start the event but how you end it, GG WP, very well deserved :).

2018-10-28 20:46

2018-10-29 00:12

s1mple only plus k/d diff. s1mple is best player in CS history

2018-10-29 01:10

he was 11\17 in grandfinal xD unluko maluko

2018-10-29 09:05

Lol Na'vi had a little 2 month period where they could actually win tier 2 events, now it's back to choking in finals like their entire CS Go history. I was watching the game btw and s1mple did literally nothing I don't give a fuck what his stats say he had no impact on this game.

2018-10-29 01:14

Better to have no impact and good stats than no impact and bad stats then. Even though we both know s1mple had by far the most impact of anyone on Navi in the final

2018-10-29 05:46

So he had none which is more than none alright. This wasn't even competitive idk what you watched but it wasn't the same game I watched FaZe didn't even play that good, Astralis would shit on them with that level they were playing in that finals.
