I hope you enjoyed the first day of CSGO MLG. This is a wonderful tournament with so many surprises. I am pretty sure I said something about landmines. I managed to miss most of the early landmines, and then Dig played. I was HEAVY on k0nfig and his 10 hurt me. In the end I had a LU hit 108, 140, 146, and 153. 34 was put in and 18 was taken out so that was not the best part of the weekend, but at least I managed to hit that cash line. In one of the GPP’s the top 5 got paid and I was 6th, 7th, and 8th. It was close, but in the end the k0nfig flunk busted me a little. Today we will get 6 matches and a shot to make things right. That is the fun of a daily fantasy sport that is played daily. No long wait times until the next slate. This is also an important thing to remember for bankroll. Play within your means because there are a lot of slates. If you miss multiple slates in a row you can quickly find yourself without any play money left.

So now that you got the parental lecture let’s get into the fun stuff and win some money today. First up will be TS playing against NME. TS is the heavy favorite here according to CSGO Lounge with a 75% to win the match. After the way NME was handled by F3 and the fact that TS held their own against G2, I do not blame the odds makers one bit.

Yesterday koosta had a pretty week game compared to the rest of his team. MAiNLiNE, Relyks, and Lucky all had over 35 points each, Uber didn’t show up and scored 1, and koosta was good for 11. The reason I bring all that up is tournaments are not the same as league play. Some players show up strong, some players struggle (k0nfig for example). I am thinking that some of that came into play yesterday, but the 3 players over 30 points came to play. They may not play that strong again in this match, but they are worth consideration at least. Uber is a swing player, being good for 50 points and then being good for 5 then 30 then 1. He is a risky play, but he did just have a down swing so maybe we get to see a nice upswing tomorrow.

Tempo Storm started this event ranked 64th, NME (selfless) started ranked 29th. So just because the odds say this will be a butt kicking, I do not think NME is out without any chance. It also does not make TS a solid 100% all in either.

This is by far my favorite match to target or even three stack. I know F3 just had a strong match, but G2 competes with top tier teams. I feel much better going with the odds makers here than the last match. ScreaM is always a solid play, but at 8500 he may be hard to roster. Shox and Rpk both had solid games yesterday and both are +1 KDA. SmithZz is a solid play as well, but if you are going to dib bellow the TOP tier, I really suggest going Rpk for the 300 in savings. He is the right price and the right ability to point out. Yesterday bondik did some carry, and WorldEdit played some solid rounds. This is part of the reason F3 won so handily yesterday. If either of them go off again G2 might find themselves in a competitive game. I could see rostering either one, and even doing a G2/F3 stack. Funny how F before G and 2 before 3…good stuff. Anyways, I would not stack them, but if you want to GPP punt, it is a nice stack for GPP.

Here we get ourselves a close match, which could be really good for us. If you pick the right players from here you could find yourself a good 50 pointer. The only problem I have even doing this write up is how much SK pooped in my Wheaties yesterday. The 3 you see here in green were the 3 who showed up yesterday. They came ready to play, or at least their top 2 players did not come to play so they got to carry. If you are going to risk playing anyone from here remember it will be a bit of guess work as to which person shows up. If you look at previous matches everyone on both teams can be all over the place. So that begs the question of will the same person who showed up today show up tomorrow or will it be someone new?

Did you get to watch this match on train? VEX came to play yesterday. I was really impressed, and it looks like the odds makers agree. This is set to be a match where they get to continue their winning ways from yesterday. Of course SPL showed up nicely yesterday also against CLG. This will be another good match for both teams to prove themselves. I like using both players to fill in value for putting studs in a LU. I would not stack them together, but that could make for a solid GPP low salary filler LU. Really I like both of these teams. I know that I plan to use a nice sprinkle of VEX and SPL in a few LUs.

Oh k0nfig why do you hate me so? Honestly I think that Dig is playing with the jitters. I have watched their matches against the best teams in the world. They play GREAT, but seem to crumble under the pressure. I am hoping that was all day one was. Dig is a heavy favorite here, and after the bust performance from day 1, I am hoping for some low ownership. This time around I am going to go a little on the lighter side, but I will be rostering k0nfig again. I also like Kjaerbye because he is good at picking up the slack when Dig is struggling. He did not do so well against NiP, but he had a solid game yesterday and a solid game against VP. For C9 it is like no one showed up yesterday. I am going to ride that trend and win or lose based off it. I think a complete fade of C9 is the smart play here, but if Dig does struggle like they did against Vex they could be a sneaky way to get big points. GPP only for C9 is the best place for them right now.

RNG played nice and strong yesterday and so did GMB, which shows in their coin flip odds. I really like the idea of using both teams here. This game could be close and high scoring so getting the right player from either team could lead to plenty of points scored. Hooch at 5800 is a great play for the price. He will be a risky play, but if he goes off, it will be so worth the risk.

I am sorry that this write up is as late as it is, and a little short on the details. It was my 2nd write up for the night since I had the LoL LCS NA to do. I hope you the best of luck tomorrow. Good luck everyone.
