FaZe Clan ends IHC Esports tale at IEM Katowice 2023

The FaZe Clan team defeated IHC Esports with a score of 2:0 and made it to the finals of the lower bracket of group A at IEM Katowice 2023. Here, RobbaN's wards will meet the winner of the Team Liquid - Team Spirit match. In turn, the Mongolian team finishes their performance in the tournament, taking 9th-12th place and earning $16,000.

One of the last meetings of the gaming day started on the Inferno map, which was expectedly chosen by the Mongolian team. At the same time, at the start, IHC Esports tried to impose its game, sometimes crushing the opponent. However, FaZe Clan coped with several waves from the Mongols to close the half with a comfortable advantage — 9:6. After the side switch, IHC Esports was able to re-engage in the game to create intrigue. And yet, in the end, RobbaN's wards managed to break the opponent in order to take the lead in the series — 16:11.

Next, the teams moved to the Ancient map, which became the choice of FaZe Clan. Here the Mongolian team could no longer resist, now and then missing the opponent's attacks. In turn, FaZe Clan played extremely confidently in attack in order to resolve all issues even before the change of sides — 12:3. There was no intrigue left in the second half as IHC Esports lost the pistol round and actually resigned to their fate. At the same time, the wards of RobbaN got the necessary rounds without any problems and scored an ordinary victory — 16:3.

IEM Katowice 2023 takes place from 1 to 12 February in Katowice at the Spodek Arena. As part of the championship, 24 teams from the CIS, Europe, North and Latin America, Asia and Oceania are fighting for a total prize pool of $1,000,000, as well as a ticket to IEM Cologne 2023 for the winner.
