The Last Resort presents you the interview series called The Underdogs which will feature many teams who are attending Crossfire Intel Challenge 7. Yesterday I caught up with Boco from Infinity Skills to ask him a couple of questions about the Crossfire Intel Challenge 7, which they're attending in less than a week from now. You can read it below.

Q: Thanks for joining me boco. For the people who might not know you, could you tell everyone a little about yourself and your history?

A: Hello Maxy. My name is Attila ''boco'' Árvai, I live in Slovakia, really close to the Hungarian border. I'm 17 years old. I started to play CoD:UO in 2006, and I switched to cod4 when it came out. I didn't really play in any well organized and known teams, Infinity-Skills was the first big step in my gaming career since it's the first team I'll attend a foreign LAN with.

Q: Can you tell us something how your current lineup formed?

A: Our lineup formed like 3 months ago, when our latest addition, Stormy, joined us. Right after when his team (Revolution) has folded, we suddenly started to play with him, since our old 5th (proxigen) went inactive. The others, elastic, kzstar, stinger and me are playing together for more than 1 year now, which is pretty cool and rarely happens with a Hungarian team.

Q: Can you tell us something about the players in your team without yourself ?

A: Well, I can't say much about the players, they are all skilled individuals. I'm gonna say that, sT1ng3R who's our AK player and our scope, Stormy, help out the most in the team, with their high performance on most of the matches, even against better opponents.

Q: What is your own role in the team ?

A: Well I press the sprint and the forward button most of the times, and try to get some lucky unzoomed kills during that I'm jumping like a bunny. I also throw a lot of geek-nades to piss off the opponents, so they can whine about me being an onliner.

Q: How did your team experience the Seeding tournament and what do you feel about the outcome of it ?

A: We are both happy and proud since we didn't lose any match in the groups, although we were a bit scared to meet fnatic this early, since we think fnatic is one of the best teams out there. I hope we can easily beat mouseFX (I'm not underestimating them but I think we are lucky to get them in the first round). Our main goal is to get into TOP 8.

Q: Why do you think other teams see you as "ONLINERS"?

A: It's an easy answer, because they haven't seen us playing on LAN and they think our perfect timings and knowing sometimes are not just luck.

Q: How did Infinity Skills prepare for this event ?

A: Playing as much preinvite and invite matches as we can. And make some standard strats and keen nades.

Q: How did the organisation help you to get to Enschede ?

A: Well the organisation paid the entrance fee and nothing else. We have been promised much more so were really really disappointed. We're going to Enschede with a 7 person car. I hope they are at least going to give us some money for gas and for the road costs! The team decided to help the organisation by paying a hotel for ourselves. We still need to find something, if you can help add me on xfire: ( hnk007 ). Thanks.

Q: What is the result your team would be happy with ?

A: We would be really happy ending in top8, but top16 would be still the best result for a hungarian team on a foreign LAN.

Q: How do you think the top 5 will look like ?

A: 1. fnatic 2. dignitas 3. pwr 4. h2k 5. reason

Q: Thanks for your time do you have anything to end with?

A: Thank you Maxy and thank you Infinity-Skills for helping us to get to the event.
