Perfect World Asia League
Best of 3
- AVEZ (-200) vs. Wisla Krakow (+150)
- CR4ZY (+145) vs. AGF (-195)
- Syman (-185) vs. Illuminar (+140)
- SG.pro (+235) vs. ALTERNATE aTTaX (-335)
CS:GO DFS Captain Considerations
Kressy is the highest-priced player on ALTERNATE aTTaX which makes sense since he has been a top player for them for some time. Over the last 45 games played, he has had a 1.19 K/D ratio while having a .75 kill per round rate which is extremely solid numbers to have. He has faced SG.pro three times so far this year and has produced a 1.10 K/D ratio so that is very encouraging to see. He is the most expensive player on the slate and while others might pass on him due to price, that makes him an encouraging tournament play based on him being lower owned.
KEi looks to be a great steal at his $7,800 price point. He leads AVEZ with a 1.25 K/D ratio over their last 15 maps played and is averaging 56.5 DK points per game. He has a strong .79 kill per round rate and has carried a 1+ rating in 75% of his 15 maps played. Over his last six matches played, he has gone plus in five of them which shows his overall consistency. When looking at everything around KEi, it is hard to not lock him into the captain spot based on a solid floor, potential upside, and low price point.
Other captain plays: TMB, Innocent
CS:GO DFS Value Plays
Byali has been extremely strong for AVEZ over the last month of games played. He has a 1.20 K/D ratio and is priced right at $7,000 which is very cheap for someone playing with that kill/death ratio. He holds a .76 kill per round rate while having a low .64 death per round rate which shows that he is getting his damage and kills while making sure he keeps himself safe. For his price point, Byali looks viable in all formats and is one of the safer plays on the slate.
Slaxz- is another player that is priced right at $7,000 which is head-scratching considering that over the last month, he has led his team with a 1.31 K/D ratio. He has had an outstanding +221 K/D differential over that timespan and is the primary awper for ALTERNATE aTTaX. Over his last 45 games played, slaxz- has had a .76 kill per round rate while only having a .58 death per round rate which is extremely impressive. He is viable in all formats and could even be used in the captain spot for the upside that he presents.
Other value plays: Kylar, mirbit, daffu

Top CS:GO DFS Stacks
AVEZ looks like a strong team to stack on this slate. They have won their last five matches played ( four Bo3 and one Bo1) and have a team K/D ratio of 1.15. Over their last 16 maps played, they have gone 12-4 and have produced over 1,500 kills as a team. Wisla Krakow has won three out of their last five matches played but has gone 13-17 over their last 30 maps played. In addition, they have produced a team K/D ratio of .98 which is not ideal. AVEZ also looks to have the map advantage as they have a higher winning percentage on five out of the seven playable tournament maps.
AVEZ has a really strong group of players to consider if looking to stack this team. KEi leads this squad in K/D ratio over the last 16 maps played and is reasonably priced at $7,800. Byali and Kylar are both relatively cheap and have had 1.20 K/D ratios over the last month and are tied for the second-highest K/D ratios on the squad so they are the value plays to consider. Markos is right behind them with a 1.18 ratio but is higher priced at $7,400 so he could be one that garners a little bit lower ownership for tournaments.
ALTERNATE aTTaX is the other team to really consider stacking on this slate. They have been in great form as of late as they have won their last five matches as they come into this contest against SG.pro. AA has played 45 maps over the last month and has gone 28-17 with producing a team K/D ratio of 1.13 which is very solid. SG.pro has played 21 maps over the last month and has gone 11-10 with only producing a team K/D ratio of 1.04. In addition, AA carries the map advantage over SG.pro as they have a higher winning percentage on five of the seven playable tournament maps so they look to be in a good overall spot.
Kressy and slaxz- have both been fantastic over this last month as they are the top two AA players when it comes to the individual K/D ratio. They hold a good chunk of the team's overall kills over the last month and would be a great mini-stack if looking for two guys from AA. StfN has been solid as he has had a 1.13 ratio over the last 45 games played and mirbit offers great salary savings at $5,600 so they are both in play as well.
Other Top Stacks/ Teams: AGF, Illuminar
