FaZe confidently, yet not without challenges, overcame paiN, who had a coach as a substitute and an academy stand-in. The first match wasn't easy: Anubis and Inferno concluded with a score of 13-11. While they managed to handle the Brazilians in this form, The MongolZ are a tougher unit and can pose a serious threat. Both teams have a similar map pool.
