What's a good series or two to watch if I want to get a general idea of their playstyle, strengths etc? vs Fnatic vs Power Gaming vs MVP typically faceless like to run a dual lane with Iceiceice and Xy and Black gets sacced a bit but they cover for him really well if he needs to catch up. I think they're on a 21 or 23 series win streak or something like that with only 2 or 3 losses in their last 25 games. And they draft a ton of Warlock / Drow and have since the team was formed. | ||

I asked on Reddit for you, and one guy gave the following reply: On November 15 2016 19:05 CET towards_zero wrote: Mineski vs Faceless, Boston SEA Qualifier Winner Finals. Both games are very intense. That would be this game (and the one above it in the list). | ||

As I have said earlier, I am still nervous for Black. I'd say his decision-making without vision has improved greatly, but he isn't quite there yet. He didn't look terrible in any of the games. He did fine with slark in game one, but in the end didn't have the impact that he could have because his moves wasn't always fully coordinated with the team. Towards the end, it felt like he got caught out too much. That repeated itself with his weaver play in game 3. It felt like his greatest problem in that game was sub-par positioning for some of the fights. Too often, he had to run away without doing much. He made a few great decisions as well and made sure to get out good damage when he had the chance, often picking good targets. That accidental time lapse on bottom lane into an unnecessary buyback was really costly for his team, though. Now, I'm just looking forward to the Faceless vs Digital Chaos match. I don't expect a win for Faceless, even though Digital Chaos have looked fairly weak lately, but I'd say it's going to be a very even match-up. | ||

The boys put in a decent effort, facing two very tough opponents. But they definitely showed some chinks in their armor, no doubt, but better now than later. You cannot feel as confident before about Boston Major anymore. | ||

They only played against two teams at "The Summit 6", both of which are among the best in the world. Surely, there's no shame in losing 1-2 against these teams. I imagine getting stomped would be demoralizing, since they want to do well at Boston Major. But now they just had more incentive to practice and work on their weaknesses. | ||

Yeah, seeing the result had me a bit scared (I was thinking whether their results at The Summit 6 had effected their confidence). However, it turns out it was a default loss that Gosugamers put in their site. I'm not sure if a default loss was actually was awarded, though - according to Liquipedia, the game is happening in 2,5 hours. | ||

I would guess that none of the matches happened (the Fnatic game was listed as a default loss as well on Gosugamers). According to Liquipedia, the matches didn't happen yet, and there are no updates by the organizer about those matches (I checked their Facebook and website). | ||
