– Now, I want everybody to imagine the FaZe they know and love. The FaZe in grand finals, with the epic and scrappy 3v3s, the momentum calls. That FaZe is dead. And it will unfortunately be attested to EliGE. Because he’s the man who joined the team and replaced ropz.
– We’ve seen them try to recalibrate the roster all season, and even though EliGE isn’t performing badly — and I want to be clear, he’s not playing badly — the way the team functions with him doesn’t work.
– I think it’s a long road back to the FaZe people were excited to watch. And I wonder how many roster changes it would take to get them there. But by doing that, you lose the identity of what they were anyway.
– So, when I say ‘EliGE killed FaZe,’ I don’t mean the org is dead. It’s the version of FaZe everyone loved that’s gone. There’s nuance to it, but I think FaZe is fucking cooked.
