I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 3/31 DFS Tournament for DraftKings CounterStrike CS GO slate. This is focused around DraftKings ONLY and my focus on what I plan to do with my 3 lineups tomorrow!
Here’s a brief crash course on CS GO and what it entails.
I’m taking this from our boy, JT, but here’s the run down. I fixed some grammar issues plus added some things!
The main thing you need to understand is the DK scoring system and how these players get points. A kill is +1.5 FP, an assist is +1FP, and death is -1pt FP. Entry kill is +.5 FP (like first blood in LOL). 1v2 Clutch = if there is one guy remaining on team protecting the bomb or vice versa and that player kills both remaining players he gets an extra +1FP on top of his +2FP for killing both players. 1v3 Clutch = extra 2 points on top of +3FPs for killing all 3. 1v4 clutch = +3 extra points plus +4 for killing the remaining four players. 1v5 clutch = +5 extra points plus 5FPs for killing all five players. Quad kill is when you get four kills in any specific round (no order needed, just four in general) +3 points additional. Ace is when one player kills entire opposing team by himself plus 5 additional FPs. Biggest thing to look at is K/D ratio, which is Kill/Death ratio so find the person with the best kill/death ratio.
With CS GO, a player score gets multiplied by 30 and divided by rounds played. As long as a player has a good K/D ratio. They can be a great play. It’s a weird stat that gets you a ton of point so we emphasize K/D ratio even more. Stacking is not as relevant in CS GO as it is in LOL. It does not matter if player is on winning or losing team. The K/D ratio is used at even par for everyone (best KD ratio, = best fantasy player) if you are going to stack two teams, they are going to limit the upside of those players. I would do a stack of 2 at MAX. Best scenario is no matter what team, you need to find the best K/D ratio and play them. I forgot to mention if a player gets 10 kills a game (random) but dies 8 times, they have a K/D ratio of 2. Find those guys with the highest K/D raio.
I feel like the best stacks thus far are 2-2-1-1 stacks. Below is my plan for the 3.31 CS GO slate tomorrow.
Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds
- VP – Only person in my player pool is JAME b/c of his K/D ratio , but this team is pretty rough.
- CPHF – Fade. TeSeS and JT are OK plays , but I think i just lean TeSeS only.
- NV – Full fade. They aren’t that good.
- MIBR – They aren’t in the best form lately. I think I’ll pass on this entire squad. Risky because they are one of the best ranked teams in the world. I’ll take my chances
I’m focusing on 3 teams for my main lines today. That being said, I’ll list who’s in my player pool below, but I will have a mix of 4 teams. Those with the highest K/D ratios.
Mouz
- ropz – +16 K/D his last 3 matches. Probably their best player in a great matchup.
- frozen – +14 K/D his last 2 matches and one of the more consistent players on this team.
- chrisJ – He’s a MAYBE. In one line max. He usually either puts up a +10 or +15 K/D ratio one match than -10 K/D the next. He isn’t very consistent.
Cloud9 –
- Sonic – +17 K/D in his last 3 and in a killer matchup. He will most likely be in ALL 3 of my lineups.
- oSee – +38 K/D in his last 3 and similarly in a killer matchup as Sonic. Again, I will have in all 3 lineups.
HAVU – nV isn’t very good and I think this is a sneaky stack for HAVU to have a ton of positive K/D. Only really targeting these guys as one offs. Chance I only go for ZOREE and sLowi only.
- ZOREE
- doto
- sLowi
100 Thieves – Probably my favorite group of guys. Coming off a tough loss vs. TL. I think they bounce back. Gratisfaction will only be in 1 lineup and that’s about it, but I’m a big fan of jks and jkaem
- jkaem
- Gratisfaction
- jks
With ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or below and be different and win the $50k (if I don’t)
