FaZe Clan officially announced on their X account the signing of Polish player Jakub “jcobbb” Pietruszewski. He joined the roster after Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski was moved to the bench. With this move, the team takes a step towards refreshing their lineup, placing hopes on the young Pole to deliver results in upcoming tournaments.

Career before FaZe

jcobbb moved to FaZe after competing for Betclic Apogee Esports, where he had played since November 2024. With the Polish organization, he participated in numerous tier-2 and tier-3 tournaments, consistently demonstrating solid individual form. His recent stats with Apogee (ADR – 84.8, Rating – 1.16) proved his readiness for a bigger challenge.

Best results with Apogee:

  • 2nd place at Chicken.GG Cup
  • 2nd place at Skin.Club Christmas Cup 2024
  • 5–8th place at CCT Season 2 European Series #20
  • 9–11th place at PGL Bucharest 2025
  • 5–8th place at CCT Season 3 European Series #2
  • 5–8th place at Exort The Proving Grounds Season 1

FaZe Clan in 2025

FaZe Clan remains one of the most recognized organizations in the CS2 scene, though their 2025 campaign has been more about stability than triumph. The team regularly reached playoff stages at major events, but fell short of lifting trophies:

  • Intel Extreme Masters Cologne 2025 — 7–8th place
  • BLAST.tv Austin Major 2025 — 5–8th place
  • Intel Extreme Masters Dallas 2025 — 9–12th place
  • BLAST Rivals Spring 2025 — 5–6th place
  • Intel Extreme Masters Melbourne 2025 — 7–8th place
  • PGL Bucharest 2025 — 3rd place
  • PGL Cluj-Napoca 2025 — 4th place

Despite the lack of titles, FaZe have maintained their reputation as a stable tier-1 roster that consistently contends for high finishes. The arrival of jcobbb is expected to bring a new spark to the lineup: the young Pole could inject fresh energy and ideas that might help FaZe once again compete for championships.

Community reaction

The official confirmation of jcobbb’s transfer to FaZe Clan sparked lively discussions among fans and even other organizations. Opinions are split: while some believe the Pole won’t significantly change FaZe’s trajectory, others see him as a much-needed breath of fresh air.

Social media featured both supportive and skeptical takes:

  • Betclic Apogee Esports: “take care of him lads” – his former club bid him farewell warmly, highlighting his importance to their roster.
  • Poloolpp: “Wont be an upgrade but I hope Im wrong” – some fans doubt the transfer will be an improvement for FaZe.
  • Dynamo Eclot: “FaZe lost the aerodynamic head buff” – a tongue-in-cheek comment referencing the personality of the previous lineup.

Overall, the reaction reflects a clear divide: some expect FaZe to remain at their current level without major change, while others believe jcobbb could be the spark that reignites their fight for trophies.

Breakthrough for jcobbb

Joining FaZe marks the pinnacle so far of jcobbb’s journey from Poland’s tier-2 circuit to the global stage. Now he will have the chance to compete for the biggest titles and prove whether he can handle the pressure in one of the world’s most high-profile organizations.

This transfer has already become one of the biggest stories of the year in Polish CS. The big question remains: can jcobbb help FaZe claim more trophies in 2025?
