BetBoom Team Can Be Volatile
BetBoom Team have been having quite a decent season. They have won three tournaments and left positive marks in other events; granted, most of their success came from lower-rated events.
That was up until June, when BetBoom Team impressed at the Intel Extreme Masters Cologne Major, reaching the quarterfinal stage.
With that, BB Team showed they can be competitive at the highest level, but are not quite up there with the elite few. The same thing happened at the recent XSE Pro League, where BB Team again placed fifth-eighth.
BetBoom Team are a competitive team, but they are also somewhat volatile. That is because they rely heavily on their firepower, but tend to lack in other areas. This helps them dominate weaker teams most of the time, yet they come out short against more tactical, higher-rated squads.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 10 | XSE Pro League 2026 | FaZe Clan | 0-2 (L) |

FaZe Clan with High Expectations
FaZe Clan have undergone quite a significant roster overhaul this season. And after some initial struggles, they seem to have found their rhythm, more recently with a top-four finish at XSE Pro League and another semifinal run at BLAST Bounty Summer.
FaZe travel to France in great shape, having won all but two of their last nine outings. The only two defeats came against PARIVISION (1-2) and Team Spirit (1-2), who eliminated FaZe from BLAST Bounty Summer.
The arrival of JBOEN seems to have been the right call, as he has been one of FaZe’s top players. And even though FaZe technically do not have a complete roster yet, they will attend EWC with Neityu, who has stood in for FaZe in several events in recent months.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| August 1 | BLAST Bounty Summer 2026 | Team Spirit | 1-2 (L) |
| July 31 | BLAST Bounty Summer 2026 | The MongolZ | 2-1 (W) |
| July 25 | BLAST Bounty Summer 2026 | DENDELE | 2-1 (W) |
| July 11 | BLAST Bounty Summer 2026 | EYEBALLERS | 2-0 (W) |
| July 10 | XSE Pro League 2026 | PARIVISION | 1-2 (L) |
FaZe Clan Squad & Team News

Verdict
FaZe Clan have been on a roll recently, producing a streak of very promising results, including a semifinal run at BLAST Bounty Summer. Their performances of late have been very inspiring, and even though FaZe have yet to prove they can efficiently deal with elite teams, there don’t seem to be many squads who can cause issues for FaZe either.
BetBoom Team have had their moments this season, but they have some clear weaknesses, which FaZe exploited last month. And there is little to suggest FaZe can’t do it again.
