FaZe are the first team of the fifth round to advance to the playoffs of SL i-League StarSeries Season 3 Finals after beating SK 16-7 on Train.
SK started Train as Terrorists with a fast B execution that turned out in FaZe's favor after a two-versus-two post-plant situation. The Brazilian players were able to buy in the third round, but their opponents' defense continued to prevail for four rounds.
After this loss, SK say goodbye to Kiev
Although Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo's squad secured the fifth round, FaZe won three more before SK managed to win four in a row to reduce the gap at 5-7. In the thirteenth round, Finn "karrigan" Andersen's team held B for their eighth round as the Brazilians picked the other two for a 7-8 scoreline.
Marcelo "coldzera" David opened up the second half with a USP-S double-kill but João "felps" Vasconcellos and Epitacio "TACO" de Melo were left alone against three. The first killed two, including a victorious knife duel, before he and his teammate failed to retake bombsite B from Fabien "kioShiMa" Fiey.
From that point, FaZe won their anti-ecos, the first gun round with a quad-kill by Nikola "NiKo" Kovač and the subsequent four rounds to close out the match 16-7 with a flawless T-side.
PotM: Fabien "kioShiMa" Fiey is our Player of the Match not only because he had the most kills (24) and ADR (114.3), but also thanks to his two key situations during the map: a 1v1 versus coldzera in the first half and a 1v2 in the second pistol round.
