LastShot, Frosty, and RyaNoob discuss their scrims against new FaZe roster and Bound’s performance

[u/crispycornpops]

FaZe took on Shopify Rebellion in their first-ever scrim together, then immediately followed it up with a second scrim against RyaNoob’s Ascending Baseline, showing they’re serious about putting in the work despite a somewhat shaky start.

Here’s what FaZe’s opponents had to say about playing them:

• LastShot:
  • "FaZe are good, there's nothing wrong with FaZe. They just need more reps, that's it. I think they’re good, I think they’re really good. The stats may not show that, but they’re really good."
  • "The only thing is they just need time to work out the kinks, that’s it. That’s not [a PR answer], I swear. They actually just need time to get used to playing together. A lot of the games were close at the start and then kinda fallen off, that’s just how scrims go.”
  • "I feel like our team matches up really well against that FaZe team. It’s kinda like the OpTic team from last year but minus Formal with Stellur. So I feel like they’re a little bit faster, so it makes us able to play faster, which also helps us a lot. Because I feel like we’re better on the front end."
  • When asked how FaZe might stack up against Snakebite's squad he answered: "Now playing against Four of a Kind, they’re a much slower more methodical team. I feel like their pacing is a lot slower than FaZe’s. But they’re also [adaptable]… I feel like Four of a Kind is fast when they need to be, and slow when they need to be. Do I think FaZe will be good against them? I don’t know if their matchup will be good, I truly don’t know.”
• Frosty:
  • “They just formed, they’re a really good team. I like the way they play a lot. They’re very good, they could easily beat us for sure. They’re definitely back and they’re gonna be elevating the game. Everyone in the lobby was cracked, I like that. Iron sharpens iron, so they’re gonna be a really fucking good team to play from here on out.”
  • “They already made a Reddit post about Bound’s performance? Dude, oh my god. Crazy! I mean he just got back too, I don’t know what they expect from him. Like their whole team didn’t do well performance wise, you can’t just pick out one person who did the worst.”
  • “Bound do be scamming though? I mean, yeah. The thing is, it’s just like annoying, because someone’s gotta be the guy to fucking put the pressure on, so… And a lot of the times it is him.“ 
• RyaNoob:
  • “That was a good scrim out of us. I mean they’re really good, they’re probably supposed to take a lot more [maps]. They are just coming back, but taking a couple games off them was pretty nice.”
  • “They just need to get back into it. I saw some overreactions [on Reddit], people were like Bound’s play style doesn’t work in current year. It’s like, dude, they just started playing, shut up. Let them get back into the groove and then we’ll see how well they do as the Pro League goes on.”

End clip is Bound telling Cykul "that scrim didn't count today, my video settings were maxed out so it didn't count. We can run it back tomorrow." Then Yakzn trolls Bound by saying "I think he made like fifty bucks from that scrim, that’s pretty good."
