Available in: Premium only. Not included in Free or Player+.
The Lobby Teams Overlay shows both teams of your current FACEIT match side by side on stream. For every player it displays ELO, level, K/D, headshot rate, winrate, ADR and matches played, so your viewers instantly see how the lobby stacks up.
How it behaves on stream
The overlay is invisible when no match is running. When a FACEIT match starts it fades in automatically for about 2 minutes, then fades out again, so it never blocks your gameplay. The background is fully transparent, which makes it ideal to place directly over your game scene.
Adding it to OBS
The overlay is a browser source. There are two ways to add it:
- Drag and Drop (fastest): drag the "Drag to OBS" box from the dashboard straight into your OBS scene. OBS creates the browser source automatically.
- Manual: in OBS click "+" under Sources, choose Browser, give it a name (for example "FACEITSync Teams Overlay"), and paste your overlay URL.
Then set the source to 1920 width and 1080 height, keep the background transparent (on by default), and place the source at the top of your source list so it sits above everything. Save and you are done. The overlay is responsive and adapts to the size.
Your overlay URL and token
Your overlay URL is tied to your personal token, for example https://faceitsync.com/overlay/teams/u/.... Do not share this URL publicly. If it is ever misused you can regenerate the token from the dashboard. After regenerating the token you must update the URL in OBS, because the old one stops working.
Preview and test
Use "Vorschau oeffnen" for a built-in demo preview (demo mode, no live data and no API calls), or "Test in OBS" to trigger a demo in your OBS browser source and confirm the overlay is integrated correctly.
Coming soon: Overlay Studio integration and GSI
A planned upgrade will integrate the Lobby Teams Overlay into Overlay Studio, so you only need a single source file in OBS for all your overlays instead of separate browser sources.
Live GSI (Game State Integration) elements are also planned, to react to the match in real time directly on stream. Planned examples include:
- A live round score and side (CT/T) that updates every round.
- A live bomb timer when the bomb is planted.
- A "clutch" indicator when you are in a 1vX situation.
- Live per-player stats that update during the match (kills, ADR, HS%) instead of only pre-match values.
- A highlight banner when a player gets a multi-kill, for example "KorgalTVDE is on a 4K".
These Overlay Studio integration and GSI features are planned and not yet available.
Troubleshooting
If the overlay does not show or looks wrong, reload the browser source in OBS or refresh the page. Make sure the source is 1920x1080, the background is transparent, the source is at the top of the list, and the URL still matches your current token.
