FISSURE Playground 2rain and jcobbb shine ahead of Twistzz's arrival as FaZe go 2-0
It is still unclear who Twistzz will replace in FaZe, but the two most likely candidates were top of the board against 3DMAX.
Håvard "rain" Nygaard and Jakub "jcobbb" Pietruszewski were FaZe's best players as they defeated 3DMAX in Belgrade.
Finn "karrigan" Andersen's team had a slow start on Nuke in the 10:00 match, but recovered on Ancient — a map 3DMAX have now lost six on a row on — and the decider of Dust2 in convincing fashion.
FaZe are playing with a cloud over them at FPG, after the organization announced the signing of Russel "Twistzz" Van Dulken without naming who he would be replacing. But, aside from a "no comment" in the post-game interview from Helvijs "broky" Saukants, it was not addressed, and all was well inside the server.
rain was dominant on Ancient, with entries up the B Ramp all half en route to a 2.21 rating, before jcobbb took over Dust2 with 103.1 ADR and a clean 1v2 clutch retaking the B bomb-site.
FaZe are now in the 2-0 pool, while 3DMAX drop to 1-1 after failing to build on their upset of The MongolZ on day one.
