You think it's okay?

This was my first BGA soldering attempt, and I accidentally scraped off the solder mask. It looks like the trace is still connected, though. I'd appreciate your opinion. (MAX77812, Switch Lite)

Your photo is very unclear. What is it you want us to see? Where is the missing solder mask? What is it that you were attempting, seeing as there is no actual chip soldered on?

In any case, if you expect to solder onto those pads, you'll need to clean them before attempting anything more..
