ropz powered FaZe to a 2-0 victory versus G2

FaZe clear G2 to set up Liquid rematch

FaZe are on the hunt for revenge versus Liquid.

The penultimate match of Group C of the BLAST Premier Fall Groups has come to a close, with FaZe besting G2 in a 2-0 affair. FaZe now make their way to the Group C grand final, at the expense of G2, who is now slated to play against Evil Geniuses in the Knockout Stage of the Fall Groups.

The series kicked off on G2's pick of Nuke, where G2 found themselves unable to convert off a pistol round victory on their T-side, initially trading rounds back and forth with FaZe during the early portion of the half. Ultimately, it would be FaZe who found themselves in charge of the remainder of the half, putting together an eight-round streak to push into double-digits before the close of the half. An impressive 1v3 from Nikola "NiKo" Kovač netted G2 one more round, but that is all his side would find for the rest of the half as FaZe took an 11-4 lead. A pistol round win from G2 allowed them to close the gap a bit, but FaZe quickly returned to winning ways to steal away G2's pick 16-7.

FaZe looked to keep up the momentum on their pick of Mirage, coming out of the gate with six straight round wins thanks to a pistol round victory. G2 were not quite as content to roll over in this half, and pushed back against FaZe's 8-1 lead by snagging five of the last six rounds of the half, narrowing their deficit to 6-9 at halftime. G2 further closed the gap by claiming the second pistol round, and despite a phenomenal Deagle 4K from Helvijs "broky" Saukants, G2 managed to convert the next two rounds. The remainder of the half consisted of the two sides briefly trading rounds before FaZe took control once again, taking five rounds in a row to win out the map 16-11.
