MOUZ vs FaZe Clan rosters, recent form, and best maps

MOUZ roster and recent results

MOUZ’s group stage run in BLAST Rivals Spring encapsulated the team’s 2025. It entered looking strong, looked good against Pain Gaming, then took a loss to Team Vitality. That was still good enough to get the team into the playoffs, though.

MOUZ’s full roster is in attendance for BLAST Rivals Spring:

• Ádám “torzsi” Torzsás
• Dorian “xertioN” Berman
• Jimi “Jimpphat” Salo
• Ludvig “Brollan” Brolin
• Lotan “Spinx” Giladi

MOUZ map pool

MOUZ is feasting on Ancient and Nuke, with a 10-3 and 13-6 record on those maps, respectively. Unfortunately, it’s famished over on Inferno, where it has a 5-10 record. MOUZ instantly bans Anubis.

FaZe Clan roster and recent results

The ever-controversial FaZe Clan has been posting mixed results since splitting with Robin “ropz” Kool. This ranges from third place in PGL Bucharest to an early elimination from BLAST Open Spring. The team is still generally regarded as a top-10 squad, but it has shown some cracks of late.

The FaZe roster started BLAST Rivals Spring with a loss to Team Falcons but bounced back with a win over FlyQuest to get into the playoffs:

• Håvard “rain” Nygaard
• Helvijs “broky” Saukants
• Finn “karrigan” Andersen
• David “frozen” Čerňanský
• Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski

FaZe Clan map pool

FaZe has a middle-of-the-road record across all seven active duty maps in Counter-Strike 2. It has an even or slightly winning record across almost all maps, with its best being a 9-6 run on Ancient to this point in 2025. The only map where it has a losing record is Mirage, where the team is 2-3.

MOUZ vs FaZe Clan head-to-head history

FaZe and MOUZ haven’t played much in 2025, facing off just once in February at PGL Cluj-Napoca. That match was won 2-0 by FaZe, though MOUZ has also improved considerably since then. Prior to this, FaZe lost to MOUZ in IEM Rio 2024 and the 2024 BLAST World Final but won a best-of-one in the PGL Shanghai Major group stage.

MOUZ vs FaZe Clan best betting picks & predictions

Core picks

• MOUZ wins long maps
  • MOUZ doesn’t typically put teams away quickly and FaZe is scrappy, so expect maps to go past 20 rounds
• MOUZ wins 2-1 loses on Inferno
  • MOUZ has been looking shaky enough on Inferno that it’s worth betting against them, or at least don’t lock in a 2-0 win until after the picks and bans are done

Prediction

MOUZ should be able to get the win over FaZe Clan in the BLAST Rivals Spring group stage. The team won’t necessarily brutalize FaZe Clan, but the betting lines are skewed for a reason.
