(“FaZe Clan”), the lifestyle and media platform rooted in gaming and youth culture, announced Gabriel Gélinas aka FaZe Proze as the winner of FaZe1: The Warehouse in a final showdown that took place over a 5-day sprint to narrow the top 22 contestants down to one ultimate recruit.

The finalists went head-to-head, challenging their skills as streamers, brand ambassadors, content creators and entertainment personalities in a series of mini competitions to crown the ultimate recruit. The show was live streamed 24/7 on Twitch allowing viewers to interact with contestants and showrunners live in the comments.
