FaZe announced the signing of EliGE

The American star player has joined FaZe and is looking to win more trophies. Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski has officially joined FaZe after moving from Complexity. The 27-year-old rifleman will replace Robin “ropz” Kuhl, who is rumored to soon join Vitality as a free agent.

A new chapter in his career

EliGE joined FaZe after an 18-month stint at Complexity. During this time, he won only one tournament - ESL Challenger Jönköping, as the team failed to consistently show good results at the largest events.

After the end of the Complexity season at the Opening Stage at the Shanghai Major, EliGE said that it was ready to do “everything possible” to be part of a team capable of winning titles in 2025.

Significance for FaZe

The signing of EliGE is a significant boost for FaZe, who have been struggling with stability throughout the season. Despite reaching the finals of four LAN tournaments, including both Majors, the team managed to win only one title - at IEM Chengdu.

FaZe's new lineup will make its first appearance at BLAST Bounty Season 1, which will be the first major tournament of the 2025 season. The tournament will start on January 14 and will bring together 32 teams that will compete for a prize pool of $500,000.
