Currently, not every team has a substitute player, and if they do, it\u2019s often someone who has been removed from the main roster and is awaiting a transfer. It turns out that training with six players is significantly more difficult, leading to several restrictions from VALVE on this practice.<\/p><p>However, the issue of substitutions has become much more relevant recently. Players are mentally weaker, can suddenly &#8220;lose motivation to play&#8221; and take a break, or simply fall ill. The most obvious and frequent reason, of course, is visa issues. Almost every championship sees a player being substituted in one of the teams or an entire team being replaced due to travel problems. Despite the obvious drawbacks and in-game challenges when playing with a stand-in, CS history knows many successful cases. Victories with substitutes occur even at the top level, and today we will recall some of these brilliant triumphs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1483318 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1483318\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-43ab40d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"43ab40d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">IEM Sydney 2018: Xizt \u2013 FaZe Clan<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-32dd303 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"32dd303\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/qVr-TMapCrrMLbHTNP9z1h_11zon_11zon_11zon-1024x683.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4070\" alt=\"IEM Sydney 2018: Xizt \u2013 FaZe Clan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/qVr-TMapCrrMLbHTNP9z1h_11zon_11zon_11zon-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/qVr-TMapCrrMLbHTNP9z1h_11zon_11zon_11zon-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/qVr-TMapCrrMLbHTNP9z1h_11zon_11zon_11zon-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/qVr-TMapCrrMLbHTNP9z1h_11zon_11zon_11zon-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/qVr-TMapCrrMLbHTNP9z1h_11zon_11zon_11zon-2048x1365.webp 2048w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/qVr-TMapCrrMLbHTNP9z1h_11zon_11zon_11zon-650x433.webp 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f6c209 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0f6c209\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>FaZe Clan has always been an organization that gathered top players and was deservedly considered a team of star players. In 2018, the team faced a challenging period, primarily due to a sensational defeat at the Boston Major. At that time, the roster included NiKo, Guardian, karrigan, rain, and olofmeister, but the latter decided to take a break from CS, focus on his health, and think about the future. The team was not caught off guard and had already asked Swedish CS legend Xizt to join FaZe for an indefinite period. At that time, the long-standing NiP captain was 28 years old and seriously considering retirement after leaving his home organization. Xizt gladly accepted the invitation to play for the star-studded team in Australia, as playing with such a lineup always offers a chance to win the tournament.<\/p><p>As it turned out, Xizt&#8217;s trip to the other side of the world was not in vain, and he managed to lift the coveted Intel Extreme Masters trophy. Individually, he performed well, finishing only one out of seven matches with a negative rating. The journey was relatively short, with the stand-in period lasting less than a month and ending almost immediately after the tournament. Xizt was unable to revive his career, and IEM Sydney became his last championship event as a player.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-74353de e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"74353de\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-209ee44 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"209ee44\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">EPICENTER 2017: Boltz \u2013 SK Gaming<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-531f7cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"531f7cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/9z8diuUZtEdXgRNLTfIVcu_11zon_11zon_11zon-1024x683.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4071\" alt=\"EPICENTER 2017: Boltz \u2013 SK Gaming\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/9z8diuUZtEdXgRNLTfIVcu_11zon_11zon_11zon-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/9z8diuUZtEdXgRNLTfIVcu_11zon_11zon_11zon-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/9z8diuUZtEdXgRNLTfIVcu_11zon_11zon_11zon-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/9z8diuUZtEdXgRNLTfIVcu_11zon_11zon_11zon-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/9z8diuUZtEdXgRNLTfIVcu_11zon_11zon_11zon-2048x1365.webp 2048w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/9z8diuUZtEdXgRNLTfIVcu_11zon_11zon_11zon-650x433.webp 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f13666 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4f13666\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>EPICENTER was the most popular tournament series held annually in Russia. In 2017, eight top teams from around the world came to Saint Petersburg: SK, Virtus.pro, Astralis, FaZe, G2, Gambit, Liquid, and North. The tournament took place a few months after the Krakow Major 2017, and many teams were changing their rosters. The Brazilians from SK Gaming were no exception, arriving in Russia with the fantastic quartet of Major double champions FalleN, coldzera, fer, and TACO, joined by boltz. The young Brazilian had reached the finals of the PGL Krakow Major 2017 with Immortals and was one of the best players on the roster. After felps left SK, boltz became the ideal candidate to replace him, and everyone understood that a successful performance would likely lead to a long-term contract.<\/p><p>The performance turned out to be more than successful. In a dramatic final against the nominal hosts of the tournament (the Polish quintet VP), SK won 3-2 and sensationally took first place. Following this victory, boltz was officially transferred to SK Gaming and even ranked 18th in the individual HLTV rating for 2017.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68dffbd e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"68dffbd\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-911ec0e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"911ec0e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">BLAST Pro Series: Miami 2019: Adren \u2013 FaZe Clan<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9909ec6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9909ec6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HgJbg3ssoD85XW6mgtZ26A_11zon_11zon_11zon-1024x683.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4068\" alt=\"BLAST Pro Series: Miami 2019: Adren \u2013 FaZe Clan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HgJbg3ssoD85XW6mgtZ26A_11zon_11zon_11zon-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HgJbg3ssoD85XW6mgtZ26A_11zon_11zon_11zon-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HgJbg3ssoD85XW6mgtZ26A_11zon_11zon_11zon-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HgJbg3ssoD85XW6mgtZ26A_11zon_11zon_11zon-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HgJbg3ssoD85XW6mgtZ26A_11zon_11zon_11zon-2048x1365.webp 2048w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/HgJbg3ssoD85XW6mgtZ26A_11zon_11zon_11zon-650x433.webp 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-657f69f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"657f69f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once again, FaZe Clan, but this time a year after the victory with a stand-in at IEM Sydney with Xizt. After a not entirely unsuccessful year, the ambitions of the star-studded FaZe roster were much higher than the results achieved, and they decided to remove the team captain, karrigan. NiKo took over the role of IGL, but the question of finding a suitable replacement as a rifler arose, and for some unclear reason, the international team remembered the champion and MVP of the Krakow Major 2017, AdreN.<\/p><p>The Kazakh player was a free agent after leaving Gambit and signed a short-term contract with FaZe Clan. Initially, he traveled with the new team to Atlanta, where they won a small four-team tournament, and a couple of months later, they attended BLAST in Miami. At that time, the tournament format meant that each team played against each other in a BO1 format, with the top two teams facing off in the final. FaZe finished second and faced Liquid in the final, who had gone through the group stage without a single defeat. In the final, FaZe unexpectedly defeated the American team 2-0, but the team still parted ways with AdreN due to communication difficulties during the game.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b562b3c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b562b3c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ea1ab95 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ea1ab95\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">IEM Katowice 2022: jks \u2013 FaZe Clan<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e85dc15 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e85dc15\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/katorecap-inline2-1024x683_11zon_11zon.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4069\" alt=\"IEM Katowice 2022: jks \u2013 FaZe Clan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/katorecap-inline2-1024x683_11zon_11zon.webp 1024w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/katorecap-inline2-1024x683_11zon_11zon-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/katorecap-inline2-1024x683_11zon_11zon-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/blog.csmarket.gg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/katorecap-inline2-1024x683_11zon_11zon-650x434.webp 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c9dac63 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c9dac63\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once again, we have to talk about FaZe, but this time about a completely different team, with karrigan having returned and been leading the new roster for about a year.
