FaZe complete star-studded Counter-Strike roster with EliGE

FaZe Clan has signed on Jonathan "EliGE" Jablonowski to complete its Counter-Strike roster. This announcement comes soon after the organization parted ways with Ropz. 

EliGE has had an excellent 2024 with some stellar individual performances. However, being on Team Complexity, the org never achieved the desired results despite some standout performances by the 27-year-old player.

FaZe were one of the best teams in the world in 2022 and 2023 accumulating trophies left and right. With several tournament wins, they seemed unstoppable. However, 2024 was not exactly what FaZe fans would have hoped for. The team failed to get the top results, despite trying their best. They were still one of the best, however, they would not reach the Grand Finals of events as easily. 

Despite the lack of consistent results, FaZe Clan reached the Grand Finals of both the Majors in 2024. They lost to NAVI in the PGL Copenhagen Major while at Shanghai, they fell short of victory against Team Spirit. The organization ended the year parting ways with Ropz, an emotional farewell for a player who had become a key member of the team.

FaZe will next participate in the BLAST Bounty Spring 2025 where they are one of 32 teams. The tournament will send eight teams to the LAN finals that takes place later this month. With a $500,000 prize pool, the tournament is the first big event of 2025 where the best teams come together to compete against each other.
