CS:GO PrizePicks for August 21

Welcome to the beginning of the CS:GO PrizePicks articles, where we will be targeting the best props of the slate! While others focus just on one tier, PrizePicks focuses on every tier in CS:GO, which makes it that much more enticing to watch! 

Speaking of PrizePicks, it is a creative new way to parlay picks based on expected fantasy point production. 

How to play PrizePicks CS:GO 

The format is simple. You will pick two, three or four players and predict if they will go over or under their fantasy point total. 

For CS:GO, the scoring is also just as simple as players score +1 fantasy point for a kill.

When parlaying the players, the larger your parlay, the better the payout:

• Two-pick entry pays 2x (max entry: $400)
• Three-pick entry pays 2.25x (max entry: $200)
• Four-pick entry pays 5x (max entry: $100)

As a bonus offer, there is a “flex play” option if you choose to run a four-man parlay. This will provide some security, as you can earn 1.5x your buy-in if three of your four picks hit.

Scoring breakdown for PrizePicks contests can be found here.

CS:GO PrizePicks

BlameF OVER 38.5 – Complexity made the appropriate changes during the player break but were hit with some more bad luck when k0nfig announced he would be out up to 4-6 weeks with a fractured wrist. Complexity now starts Day One of the Group Stage versus forZe, and it will all come back to blameF. Es3tag is new to the core with head coach Peacemaker, but there’s old history between them and blameF which doesn’t make me doubt Complexity coming into this series. BlameF currently holds a 1.23 player rating with a 0.77 KpR (Kill Per Round) average, and 38.5 is pretty low when it will all come back to him.

FL1T OVER 40.5 – Sticking in the same series, FL1T and his team could actually get some heat rolling on Day One with the bad luck Complexity is having. Overall, though, FL1T is the top fragger of this team, and he will be a huge reason why they stay in this series or take it. He holds a 1.13 player rating and a 0.74 KpR average. Now, his deaths do follow as he averages a 0.65 DpR (Death Per Round), but he’ll be involved in every round and will be the reason momentum is rolling. 

Max OVER 41.5 – Max and 9z get Furious today once again, who they go to war with every time. For Max, this is a matchup he can succeed in. With his most recent performance against Furious, he recorded 44 kills in two maps. Since that series, he has exceeded the 41-kill mark four straight times and will most likely do it again today. He is holding a 1.19 player rating for the past three months and is at an average of 0.77 KpR.
