From Chokers to Champions: The Story of FaZe Clan CS:GO

FaZe Clan didn't start in CS:GO. At one point the team wasn't even sure that they'd be able to enter the scene. Once they did, their hands off approach at times led the team to disarray.
But throughout all of the roster changes and a heart-breaking defeat in one of the closest Major grand finals ever played, the team finally secured what they were fighting for all along.

ropz really was the difference. He brought the confidence they need. He is young , has better communication and Faze was able to play the map aggressively coz ropz can hold sites and gather info by himself

@edgedg Год назад

> ropz can hold sites and gather info by himself This. Super reliable, doesn't over-extend. Not sure about those comms. In the voice comms in karrigan's youtube channel, you can hear he's contributing least. Kind of makes sense, since his thing are the solo lurks. Others are calling constantly, and Twistzz is always panicking 😂

Ropz is the definition of csgo nerd.

@ManagerStrife Год назад

Best thing about Ropz is that in Faze he didn't necessarily need to play the carry that MOUZ needed him to. He is there enjoying himself with Karrigan, and that's what seperated him from NiKo. Now, I am not going to downgrade NiKo but he has a massive problem, that is being an IGL and carrying at the same time. He is fucking conflicted with the roles and sometimes makes the wrong calls and blames it on the IGL in his teams. Ropz on the other hand knows his place and knows that this is a team effort, not a single man effort.
