FaZe invited to ESL One New York

Another invite for ESL One New York has been announced as FaZe is the seventh team to join the team list.

Currently ranked sixth in the world, FaZe have been invited to ESL One New York after their second-place finish at BLAST Pro Series Los Angeles, where they were defeated by Liquid in the grand final. During FaZe's peak in 2017, the team won an ESL One New York event, with Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač grabbing the MVP award after an amazing, 1.70-average rated performance.
