Core plays/lineup construction for CS:GO (10/13 AFT)

We get a massive six-game IEM NA slate Tuesday with a ton of massive favorites. Everyone is going to want to gravitate to the blowout games, but with six games on the slate, I believe balanced lineups will be the most optimal and the best leverage on the field as some of these salaries are downright absurd. As we […]

Core plays/lineup construction for CS:GO (10/12 AM)

Today, we get two new events, with the AM cap being the IEM CIS event. This event has some lesser known teams along with NaVi, but some of these lesser known teams are actually pretty good, and we have some really good map data for these teams, so projections should be solid today. Virtus.Pro (-345) vs. K23 (+240) […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/11)

This may be the best IEM NA slate we have had to date, as we have some mispriced players, some favorites that still have something to play for, but none so outrageous that they should be playing games on the battlefield. The prize pool is disappointing and I expect it to fill quickly, so make sure […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/10 afternoon slate)

The edge in Saturday afternoon’s CSGO DFS slate is going to depend a lot on your perspective. In the first day of this event, we say Furia as a massive favorite, completely screwing around on the battlefield. Their top guys used weaker weapons, attempted stealth kills and punted rounds. Their top three put up a mediocre performance […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/10)

We had a bizarre EU slate for CSGO Friday as a 2-2-2 took down the two-game slate on a day where the two worst teams went 2-0. Now those two teams, FaZe and Fnatic, are back looking for two more upsets. Here’s a look at the DFS options for the Saturday slate. Fnatic (-105) vs. […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/9)

The IEM EU event continues on and we have two slates that should be extremely interesting. IEM EU (early slate) The early slate features close matchups, at least on paper. Here's how I'm approaching each of them: Fnatic (-190) vs. Complexity (+140) I really expected Complexity to take care of business Thursday against Vitality, but […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/8 early slate)

Thursday kicks off with a two-game slate between four evenly matched teams, which is similar to what we experienced on Wednesday. As we saw Wednesday, when teams are closely ranked, things can get muddy, and 3-3 becomes highly duped and less optimal. I plan on doing zero 3-3 lineups today and will be mostly 3-2-1 and 2-2-1-1. What's interesting about today […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO: Late slate (10/8)

IEM North America has been a wild ride with some atrocious teams, and some of the top teams playing games over playing at the top of their ability. As such it is a good time to be wise with our bankrolls and not over-extend as variance might be a little bit wider. We also expect pricing to get […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/7 afternoon slate)

Day 2 of the CSGO group stages is here for the IEM NA event. If you are the person who fires up your favorite sports video game and builds a dream team, the Wednesday slate is for you, as we have some mispricings that we can take advantage of to build teams with anyone you […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/7)

Day 2 of the IEM EU event is here and we have a very nice two-game CS:GO slate, with solid statistical sample size and some places to focus our ownership. Fnatic (-155) vs. G2 Esports (+115) These two teams were supposed to meet in the winners bracket, and then both teams lost. I was all over the […]

Core plays and lineup construction for CS:GO (10/6 afternoon slate)

We have a massive “$10k to first” Tuesday afternoon in the IEM NA event, with some new CSGO teams. Let's see if we can find a screenshot. This slate is insane with two -10000 favorites, a -1800 favorite and a -1200 favorite. It's also hard to parse some of the stats because these teams have played […]
