Meeting statistics

Current form and & playstyle: Los Angeles Thieves

Los Angeles Thieves come in with one of the most dangerous slaying cores in the league. With “Scrappy,” “HyDra,” “aBeZy,” and “Nium,” LAT are built around pressure, fast rotations, and individual takeover potential. They can overwhelm teams in Hardpoint when their pace is clean, but their biggest issue is volatility against elite opponents.

Kenneth “Kenny” Williams, who has been providing leadership to the Thieves for the whole two years, has been replaced by Jeremiah “Nium” Harrison on the starting roster. The organization owned and operated by 100 Thieves officially finalized the roster change in early February following a disappointing top-six finish at the Call of Duty League (CDL) Stage One Major.

Current form and & playstyle: FaZe Vegas

FaZe Vegas are slightly more structured. They’ve been more consistent across the season table and have repeatedly edged close series against LAT in 2026. Their style is less chaotic, more controlled, and often stronger in late-map decision-making, especially when matches reach game five. For the organization owned and operated by FaZe Clan, the key factor is its ability to control Search & Destroy and punish LAT’s aggression in swing rounds. The primary key players for the FaZe Vegas roster are “Simp” and “Drazah”, who anchor the team alongside rising European star “Abuzah” and MVP standout “04.”

Head-to-head

The exact head-to-head is 3–2 in favor of FaZe Vegas, with their last meeting on May 17, 2026.

Match analytics

This feels close, but FaZe Vegas get the slight edge because they’ve already beaten LAT in multiple tight bo5s this season. LAT have the higher explosive ceiling, especially if “Scrappy” and “HyDra” start hot, but FaZe look a little more reliable in map-five situations.

Tip: Correct score – FaZe Vegas 3-2.
