On May 6, 22 hopeful influencers gathered under a single roof to compete for the title of the next FaZe Clan member. This contest wasn\u2019t your average talent show; each of these creators were being live streamed 24\/7 for a three-week period, intermittently going head to head in high-stakes challenges to determine who would be eliminated and who would stay as part of the FaZe1 recruitment challenge. This first-of-its kind program ended with a huge bang on May 26, when the ultimate winner was revealed. On top of being the first FaZe1 inductee, the victor would also receive $1 million in cryptocurrency, a $250,000 GHOST sponsorship, and a shiny new Nissan GTR. Out of the final three, Canadian Twitch streamer Gabriel \u2018Proze\u2019 G\u00e9linas took home the coveted prize \u2014 and an enviable spot in FaZe Clan, one of the biggest esports and entertainment organizations in the business. We got the chance to sit down with FaZe Proze to discuss what\u2019s next for the rising star after taking home such a monumental win, as well as the challenges and difficulties he faced in The Warehouse. While you\u2019d think the streamer would put his feet up after weeks of nonstop competition, it\u2019s business as usual for Proze, who says that he\u2019s still a busy bee after taking home the W. \u201cI wish I could say it\u2019s just me relaxing now, but it truly is not,\u201d he laughed. \u201cI\u2019ve been going at it, it\u2019s been work ever since I joined. I\u2019ve been going hard at it. But honestly, the feeling is surreal. It hasn\u2019t fully hit me yet, to be honest. But I\u2019m trying to enjoy every single day, just one at a time. I\u2019m really grateful. I enjoy what I\u2019m doing right now, so it\u2019s been amazing.\u201d That\u2019s a wrap for #FAZE1 The Warehouse! To our amazing contestants, production crew, special guests, viewers, @moonpay, @GhostLifestyle, @NissanUSA, and everyone here at FaZe Clan working tirelessly to make this show possible: THANK YOU! \u2764\ufe0f pic.twitter.com\/VuDKJHk1FQ \u2014 FaZe Clan (@FaZeClan) May 27, 2022 As for what led him to victory? Proze says that confidence is key, because it translates into everything you do\u2026 especially your on-camera presence. \u201cI always had confidence,\u201d he said. \u201cThe way I see it is, if you don\u2019t believe in yourself, who\u2019s gonna believe in you? You have to believe in yourself first. I came in really confident, just in my ability to stay myself, enjoy every single moment I had there, and be literally the best version of myself I could be.\u201d \u201cThat was my whole goal, and that was what I was aiming for every single day. So, I was confident. I really wished and hoped that I would be there in the end, but at the end of the day, my whole way to go about it was to be myself and show myself for who I really am.\u201d The Warehouse\u2019s biggest challenges Being on a live-streamed show every night and day sounds like a massive undertaking for just about anyone\u2026 but for Proze, that in itself wasn\u2019t the biggest challenge that the Warehouse presented him. Instead, he claims that getting enough sleep was the biggest difficulty of the show \u2014 as well as having to entertain viewers for 24 hours a day, seven days a week. \u201cI\u2019m gonna call myself lucky, because I\u2019ve been creating content for eight years,\u201d he admitted. \u201cSo I\u2019m used to having cameras, not on this level, obviously. Probably, going to sleep [was the hardest part]. Going to sleep was hard, and having to entertain at all times, you know. You usually start a stream and then you end it and you\u2019re like, \u2018Whew, I can take a small break.\u2019 In those situations, you have to be on all the time.\u201d \u201cIt is a challenge, but it\u2019s a cool challenge, because it forced ourselves to see what we could do. I think all of us in the top 22 grew from this experience, so it\u2019s really cool. We managed to push ourselves and show that even when we\u2019re really tired, we can still come up with good ideas and create entertaining stuff for our fans back home.\u201d Pushing past uncertainty While he might be the latest FaZe Clan inductee, his path to fame and glory was fraught with uncertainties. The Warehouse was paused for a time due to multiple positive tests from its participants, prompting FaZe to regroup with increased restrictions. Further details on our return to #FAZE1 The Warehouse: pic.twitter.com\/SpaM19Mw3H \u2014 FaZe Clan (@FaZeClan) May 18, 2022 In the end, the in-person show was continued in a breakneck \u201c5-day sprint\u201d to crown the winner \u2014 and it was a frightening time for everyone involved, Proze included. \u201cIt was obviously stressful. I mean, the idea of something outside of your control affecting your performance, or your chances to even compete, was really hard. For me, it was stressful, but I was just grateful to have an at-bat. That\u2019s the way I was seeing it. I was scared enough of not having that at-bat to actually be there in the Warehouse and show what I have. That was the scariest part. I tried to keep myself focused and stay inside my room. I worked out a little bit. I tried to just stay focused on the goal at hand and believe.\u201d \u201cBelieve in yourself\u201d After submitting his introduction video, it was all on the line for Proze. Out of the final three, he ended up walking away with millions \u2014 and some invaluable life lessons. For Proze, victory is all about belief\u2026 both in oneself and one\u2019s abilities. \u201cBelieve in yourself,\u201d he urged. \u201cI think some people in the top 22, at some point, doubted themselves, which is totally fine \u2014 and even me at some points, I was like, \u2018This is getting hard. Am I the next one to go?\u2019 But always having belief really shows off on the camera, I think \u2014 the ability to actually trust that you\u2019re doing well, even if there are some moments that you\u2019re not doing as much as you could, or that you wish you could do. Always believing that you have the potential and are the one to do it is really what stood out for me and what I\u2019m gonna take back from this experience.\u201d With a pocket full of crypto and a major sponsorship, fans are curious to see what\u2019s next for FaZe\u2019s new star. While he\u2019s got some plans for the near future, he isn\u2019t certain what his next order of business will be. Either way, though, he\u2019s extremely grateful for his friends and his fans \u2014 and they can\u2019t wait to see where life takes him. \u201cI\u2019m not too sure yet,\u201d he said of his upcoming exploits. \u201cI have a few things planned obviously at the major this weekend, the Toronto major for the COD event. I have a few plans to see my fans back in France, because I\u2019ve never been there. We\u2019ll see what happens, but I have a few plans in mind.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m just really grateful for all the support I had, especially from my friends, my French fans, and obviously for the new people who follow me who speak English. I\u2019m really excited they accepted me with open arms, and I couldn\u2019t be more grateful for all the support I got. I can\u2019t wait to see what\u2019s next.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FaZe Proze reveals what\u2019s next after huge Warehouse challenge victory YouTube: FaZe ClanAfter three weeks of grueling live-streamed competition, Proze is the newest member of FaZe Clan and winner of The Warehouse challenge \u2014 and this is just the beginning of a new chapter for the seasoned content creator.
