CS:GO SlateOverview: DreamHack
A loadedday for CS:GO tomorrow begins with a two-gamer at DreamHack: Asia. These are fourteams that we have yet to see in awhile in a weaker league but we can have anedge on this slate. In the first match, Beyond (+325) faces Tyloo (-475) where wefind our first heavy favorite of the day. I’ll only be targeting players fromTyloo in this one, as they seem to be a very dominant squad, including havingan impressive win over Vici Gaming. In the second game, Lucid Dream (+350)takes on Vici Gaming (-600) where the clear targets are from the favorite. VGbeat LD 2-0 at the Road to Rio in convincing fashion, winning both maps by acombined score of 32-12. LD does not stand a chance here and the only way they’llget some points is with the “Rounds Not Played” bonus. I am completely fadingLD and will have a ton of VG in every lineup I build; my top targets are JamYoung,kaze, and aumaN. Although DK has a ton of VG players listed at the time ofwriting, should it not change, it’s important to note that the other startersare advent ($5,400) and zhokiNg ($6,200).
Top Playsfor Vici Gaming: JamYoung ($10,200), kaze ($8,800), aumaN ($7,000)
Top Playsfor Tyloo: Danking ($9,400), SLOWLY ($7,800),
Captain ofChoice: aumaN ($10,500)
LineupConstruction: 3-3 Tyloo/Vici Gaming
CS:GO SlateOverview: BLAST (Early)
We learned a lot from yesterday’s BLAST slate. The fact that these series are a best of 1 change a lot in our lineup construction; we need to make sure to not only prioritize players from winning teams, but even more so, players with the highest upside to get as many kills as possible. In the first game, Fnatic (-175) takes on Virtus Pro (+125) where I’ll be siding with VP. Fnatic was featured in yesterday’s article to be a target versus MAD Lions but weren’t able to pull away with the victory despite being the superior squad and looked like the team I liked to pick on for the last month. Losers of 6 in their last 7, I’ll only have an FNC one off in most of my builds, primarily KRIMZ who has looked to be in much better form since DreamHack, with a max of two in hedge stacks. The second game features the top targets on the slate, Ninjas in Pyjamas (-300) who face off versus sAw (+225), who got wiped by Astralis yesterday 16-4 even without gla1ve and Xyp9x – nothing else to add there. 3-man NIP stacks are the way to go here.
Top Playson the Slate: 3 NIP guys; all 5 in play. Prioritize nawwk ($7,600)
Virtus Pro:YEKINDER ($8,600), Jame ($7,400), qikert ($6,400) only if necessary
FNC Hedge/One-Off:KRIMZ ($7,800) and JW ($6,600)
CS:GO SlateOverview: BLAST (Main)
In each respective matchup there are 4 clear teams that I want to target (in order of the game times): MAD Lions, Cloud9, FURIA, and MiBR. If I had to choose two top targets, it’d be C9 and MiBR. I’ll definitely have some GenG one-offs and two-men stacks given that they have proven to beat FURIA in the past, but FURIA is the clear better team here. Below will be my foreseen player pool with modifications to be added in Discord.
TopTargets: Bubzkji ($8,000), floppy ($7,800), KSCERATO ($7,600), yuurih ($7,400),HEN1 ($7,400), Fallen ($8,600), fer ($7,600), kNgV- ($7,200)
