/The FaZe Clan team won the second victory at BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023. In the final of group B, the European team managed to beat OG with a score of 2:1, thanks to which it got closer to reaching the spring finals of the season. In turn, OG fell to the lower bracket, where they will meet the winner of the Complexity Gaming derby - Team Liquid.
The starting series of the game day began on the Mirage map, which became the choice of the FaZe Clan team. But if the starting rounds went to OG's piggy bank, then later RobbaN's wards quickly found their game and managed to show an excellent attack, gaining a twofold advantage - 10:5. After the side switch, nexa and the company did not return to the server, while FaZe Clan quickly got the necessary rounds and took the lead in the series — 16:7.
Next, the teams moved to the map Ancient, which turned out to be the choice of OG. Here, ruggah's men started to play first, but very soon FaZe Clan made an economy for defense and provided a slight advantage - 9:6. However, after the switchover, the favorite unexpectedly got lost in attack, while the OG players quickly adapted to the opponent's pace and equalized the score in the series — 16:11.
Everything was decided on the map Inferno, which began with an unfortunate series of lost rounds for OG. Before the switchover, ruggah's wards couldn't wake up, while ropz and company played confidently in attack and created a rout — 12:3. In the second half, OG still failed to join the fight, while FaZe Clan quickly brought the matter to a rout and scored a second victory in the championship — 16:4.
