The fnaticMSI DotA team were happy to participate in the last showmatch against KingSurf and are hungry for more! This time they have contacted arguably China's strongest team; 7L, formerly known as CaNt. The showmatch will take place on Tuesday April 28th at 16:00 CET! Click full story for more information. UPDATE: A small interview with VeLeNo is in the full story, where he talks about the games and the opponents.
Both teams have high respect for one another but have not met on the battlefield since the SMM Grand National tournament in Malaysia which took place in November. 7L got its revenge on fnaticMSI after losing to them at MGC in China, defeating them in the playoffs at SMM.
Recently 7L has been getting a lot of attention, with many of their replays available at the Chinese dota portal, sgamer. They have been training extensively against the Russian giants Platium Sports which include players like Vigoss, NS and Smile of former VP.
This showmatch will be BO3 and all games will be streamed on GarenaTV. Good luck to both teams and stay tuned for some exciting games!
A few words from fnaticMSI player, Lakuci:
Lakuci: 7L as we know in the past as team CaNt, are a much stronger team now. I have been watching many of their replays vs Rush3d (now known as Platium Sports) This showmatch will be a great match because we havent see them since SMM and we have been waiting to play versus them, so dont miss it, Fnatic will show the best for THIS!

UPDATE: Q&A with Andreas "VeLeNo" Lien
Hey Andreas, can you tell us what happened in the first game of the showmatch against Ks.CN?
At 1st game we tried to use the weaver to counter their beastmaster, but it didn't help much. They ganked a lot and we couldn't counter with our heroes.
What about the second game, you guys won, how did that map go?
At second game we used other strategies against them, and we won the war.
Lastly, there was some problem in the last map, you were winning the game and then something happened... can you explain the whole situation and after the re-start what happened?
On the last map, we led the game from the beginning. Then bad luck for us, they disconnected. And we had to load the game from 4 minutes. They countered us very nicely when we loaded the game. They stuck together and used a lot of push strats. So there's no replay for last game cause of load game.
Playing against Ks.CN, what are your thoughts about it, did you think it was a good match?
They are one of the best Asia team, good luck with their new sponsor Ks. It's a great match. And we apologize for our loss. We will do our best for next show match or competition.
Thanks for your time Andreas! Don't forget to download the replays of the showmatch
