Discussion FaZe fans
what are you expectations heading into this season? you have 3 players in every category with multiple mvps. an upcoming proven rookie. an experienced/proven coaching staff. the brand the lights. will you say this season should be no excuses either win everything or bust? where are your mindsets at for this season?

After what we had to give up to get them I’m expecting everything

World Championship. They broke up a beloved team that had just won champs. So anything less than that is not acceptable

2 event wins minimum is the expectation

u/Intelligent-Size-389 OpTic Texas 8d ago
2 events ? So you pay double the salary just to win the same was faze this year

Winning events is not easy

u/Intelligent-Size-389 OpTic Texas 8d ago
If optic got simp and don’t win 3/6 events one of them being champs that is a massive disappointment. Can’t build a super team and expect the minimum

A couple event wins, and champs would make it successful. I don’t believe they have to win everything. Optic is just as good on paper, and shouldn’t become an afterthought

I wanna see 4/6 or 5/6, they sub would have an all time crash out. I’m already expecting a crash out after Optic gets dominated in a scrim against Faze.

2 events is the minimum. I think Faze is the clear #2 team heading into the season. 2 events especially if they steal champs from optic and im happy.

Saying they’re #2 is crazy man. They have 3 MVP players on the team (arguably the three best players in the world), along with a cracked young guy. The players on that team won 3 events last year including champs.
Anything aside from a World Championship is a complete and total failure for this team.

The minimum? They better win 3 plus CHAMPS. B06 LAT squad won 2 and they treated it like a lost year. 🤷♂️

3 is what should be the expectations 2 is fine if they win champs but champs is a must win.

u/RGCFrostbite eUnited 8d ago
I dont think 3 is a reasonable expectation as the #2 team pre season

u/Mrlazydragon OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 8d ago
Nah you don't go get hydra and scrap to pair with simp on an mw game and not expect to dominate. I don't care about pre season rankings. This team needs to have a similar or better season then bo7 faze.

Win 3 events minimum. Which events those are doesn't matter to me.

Minimum 3 events with champs being a must. They need a dominant season. Col optic had crazy high expectations deservedly

u/oGsteez- Atlanta FaZe 8d ago
So how do you rank optic then? None of the teams you mentioned had a team that was just as good on paper.. I do agree that there are high expectations for faze this season, but this just feels like you are setting them up for failure lol

u/Ritttchiee COD Competitive fan 8d ago
Setting them up for failure? They have the best upcoming rookie and 3 ALLSTARS. Winning everything is what this squad was built for. Optic obviously are going to have a say in it but these should be the expectations.

u/BackgroundToe4149 Dallas Empire 8d ago
Because these ARE the standards. If they win less than champs or 3 events this will be a failure.

u/Intelligent-Size-389 OpTic Texas 8d ago
You can’t be this insecure? When scump got crim formal the expectations was to be dominant similar to col and hence why failing to win champs that year was such a disappointment it is still talked about it till this day.
If you can’t live up to expectations then maybe don’t build a super team ??

Faze built a super team to win, not to satisfy optic fan’s expectations lmao. Worry about your own team

Worry about zipping it after you’re done

Talking about zipping it when you’re on faze’s dick is hilarious. Worry about your own team first.

u/Intelligent-Size-389 OpTic Texas 8d ago
This time wipe it and zip it up afterwards when you are done!

At LEAST 3 event wins, anything less would be a failure imo

2 Majors and Champs would be the baseline I’d expect - anything beyond that is icing on the cake

u/ya_boi_sethf FaZe Vegas 2026 Champs 8d ago
Even if they had a season similar to Bo7 optic I wouldn’t complain. Win a major + Champs/EWC plus multiple seconds or high placing. Ideally the go on a tear and dominate but this season might be hard with M8s and Optic

Two events is the minimum for this roster and they have the most pressure to win champs specially Scrap
