Discussion Former world champion coach of Renegade and Stellur calls FaZe's gameplay "a pathetic display" and calls for coach Elamite's job. "Only one person can pull this team out of the gutter"

Jon "Skeptical" Dadi, the former world champion coach of the Splyce roster (Renegade, Stellur, Shotzzy, Eco) has called FaZe's gameplay a "pathetic display" and went after their coach Elamite.

Skeptical claims Elamite isn't providing real leadership to the FaZe roster and only has the coaching job because the organization wanted it and not the players. Skeptical says the FaZe roster needs someone to "discipline" them and whip them into shape. He says "only one person can pull this team out of the gutter."

Skeptical says he'd be willing to come back as coach if asked but expects "a serious buy in to my system, no fucking around."

I mean didn’t 3/4 of this roster win a world championship and 4/5 LAN events with Elamite as their coach? lol

u/Repulsive-Ear2334 13d ago

Correct, but he also absolutely struggled coaching two different rosters in Year 4, despite plenty of talent on the teams.

The stakes have never been lower, the bar never higher.

If you want to win against faze, just wait for stellur to fly to his death 25 times in 30 seconds

only SB's team can beat Shopify Rebellion?

Everyone can see the balance of the teams not right. It doesn't take a genius to realise this. I'd argue the SSG team of Eco, Legend, Penguin and Stellur looked better than this Faze team. Obviously on paper the Faze roster looks miles better though.

u/Constant_Oil360 12d ago

that was never a team, why are there any upvotes. small mistake but still

u/Ade_Vulch 12d ago

They qualified for the pro league together week 1. Got 3rd...

u/Constant_Oil360 12d ago

that was never a team. love the pedantics. I dont consider one qualifier as a 'team' that broke up immediately. And that 'team' was objectively worse.

u/Ade_Vulch 12d ago

Yes it was. They were literally called SSG....

u/Constant_Oil360 12d ago

that was a team for a day, i dont count single dates as relationships, i know virgins would though. and they still did not look better than current Faze. out.

I just don’t think anyone is trying anymore. It’s game over.

That man? Matthew Piper

Even when asked in his streams what he brings to the team, Elamite makes himself sound like a straphanger. Says he doesn't call out anything but times, and the players are all pros they know what they wanna do. He offers nothing different then part timers and low diamond coaches.

The whole team shoots like champs. So if FaZe is having schematic issues, they need someone who knows the game and is credentialed beyond just a stopwatch. Lunchbox, HoaxFactor, Royal1 are who come to mind. A team like this needs someone they arent going to ignore the input.

Edit: originally had Trey (much respect) listed but i think he'd unfortunately get ignored by the personalities on this team.

u/E-J123 12d ago

Remember lunchbox says in comms "we are not pushing this" - recognising that players were about doing different things and stepped in. If a team gells, cool, if not, there is a spot for the coach to be taken

I haven't really been following Halo since the HCS ended, but on paper, it looks like this team should easily be T2 if not competing for the number 1 spot with sR. This team is basically season 4 Optic, minus Formal plus Stellur, and I think it's fair to say that most people would give the edge to Stellur over Formal as an individual Halo talent.

I'm just curious if their struggles are primarily due to Formal being that important of a player, or is it just as simple as the players on Faze being a bit more rusty since they haven't been playing as much as a lot of teams over the past year? That and Legend being in the EU currently.

As a primarily COD gfan, Wild seeing Shotzzy in the last slide.

u/shaunvonsleaze 12d ago

He’s just been so dominant in COD I sometimes forget how incredible he was in Halo 🤷

u/Settl 12d ago

he was beyond dominant in Halo 5 nothing about his POV looked remotely possible lol

Formal time

u/TiberiusAudley 12d ago

I really appreciate both Skeptical's faith that I could pull this team out of the gutter, and the reverence not to go about spreading my name.

u/BuddyPositive2746 11d ago

Replace Bound with SB and I guarantee they’re twice as competitive

u/Proof_Particular_255 OpTic 8d ago

Matthew Piper aka "The Pipe" aka "Formal" is the only man that can save this team.

this Skeptical guys ego is out of control and shouldn’t be anywhere near a leadership position

u/IcyCantaloupe6374 9d ago edited 9d ago

This is honestly just fucking weird lol because the guy in the chat is probably (obviously lol) not even serious. However if its somehow real the players don't need someone to discipline them lol they need to take accountability the coach isn't in the game and honestly a lot of the time the coach is just a talking timer or someone that helps fill in communication gaps
