FaZe are the third team to receive an invite to compete at ESL One New York, the event's organisers have announced.

The SL i-League StarSeries S3 champions, who are currently ranked second in the world, join the previously invited duo of Natus Vincere and Virtus.pro, with five more teams still to be determined.

FaZe were last seen in action at IEM Sydney, where they placed second after losing out to SK in the final. They were unable to qualify for the ESL Pro League Season 3 finals, having finished seventh in the European division.
