FaZe beat BIG to clinch 9th place at IEM Fall

FaZe, who have had a rough time at IEM Fall following some disappointing results can finally breathe a little more freely as they have managed to get a step closer to qualifying for the Major by taking down BIG 2-0 to clinch the 9th place.

The action started on FaZe’s pick of Mirage, where tabseN kicked off things with a beautiful USP-S 4k on the A-bombsite. karrigan and company showcased a good T side and made it hard for BIG to defend the two bombsites, ending the half with a 8-7 advantage. Despite winning the pistol round, BIG Clan didn’t manage to establish themselves as Terrorists and couldn’t find openings to get their game going. FaZe on the other hand, confidently kept shutting down their executes and went on to draw the first blood to the series by closing out the map 16-9, only allowing the Germans to take two rounds in the second half.

FaZe Clan wrapped up the series on Overpass, where they completely crushed BIG, 16-4. Håvard “rain” Nygaard lead the charge for FaZe and dropped 25 frags to finish on top of the scoreboard with an impressive 2.14 rating. It’s also worth mentioning FaZe’s Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken who was the second-best performing player on the server, with a 1.84 Rating and 108.6 ADR.
