skiter on Team Falcons: “I would really like to break the record for the longest-running team.”
Team Falcons carry Oliver “skiter” Lepko spoke in an interview at BLAST Slam VII about the match against Said Samail “SumaiL” Hassan, commented on the choice of Drow Ranger on the second map against Team Liquid in the tournament playoffs, and spoke about his desire to keep the current “Falcons” roster.
About SumaiL
With us, SumaiL used to replace someone once a year, but that hasn’t happened yet in 2026, so we had to pick him. Plus, he’s a close friend of Ammar from ATF, so the choice was obvious.
On Drow Ranger
This hero isn’t played in every meta, so I just gave her a try, and she feels pretty good. But, to be honest, I wasn’t even involved in the draft. Ammar told me, “You’re playing Drow Ranger as the first pick.” All I could do was agree.
About the Team Falcons roster
We had a lot of issues because we’ve been playing together for a very long time. We had to work through it, and we also realized that we need to put in effort not just as players, but as people.
I’d really love to break the record for the longest-running team, but it’ll be tough to play for another whole year. I don’t think that’ll happen. I’m not opposed to staying with the same roster if we do well at EWC and TI, but it depends on how we play.
Team Falcons defeated Team Liquid 2-0 in the quarterfinals of the BLAST Slam VII playoffs. The main stage of the tournament runs from June 4 to 7, and the total prize pool for the championship is $1,000,000.
