FaZe scored a convincing 2-0 victory over 3DMAX in the quarterfinals of PGL Bucharest 2025, defeating the French on Anubis (13:0) and Nuke (13:5). This match was FaZe's best performance in recent times, and their confidence and precision in the game left 3DMAX no chance. Now the team is preparing for the semifinals against Falcons.

This game is interesting not only because of FaZe's dominance, but also because of the unexpected weakness of 3DMAX, who were unable to realize their aggressive style. The return to form of Helvijs “broky” Saukants and the brilliant play of David “frozen” Čerňanský were crucial to FaZe's success.

The course of the match: complete advantage of FaZe

The series began on Anubis, where FaZe did not give up a single round (13:0), demonstrating perfect defense and accuracy in duels. 3DMAX could not break through the opponent's defaults, constantly losing in the attack. At Nuke, the French tried to get back at them, but FaZe quickly took the initiative, finishing the map with a score of 13:5. 3DMAX's aggressive style proved to be ineffective against FaZe's methodical play, which controlled every round.
