CS Summit EU

Best of 3

• Triumph vs. TeamOne
• Yeah Vs. MiBR

Triumph vs. TeamOne

This game looks to be the closest match of this afternoon slate. Triumph comes into this match being ranked as #43 in the world while TeamOne is ranked #79 overall. Triumph lost their opening round of the CS Summit 6 NA regional qualifier to Yeah in three games and was sent to the lower bracket where they swept the New England Whalers 2-0. TeamOne swept Envy in the opening round and then lost to Chaos 2-1 in the upper semi-final round which then set up this matchup in the lower semi-finals with the winner going on to face the winner of the game below. 

Triumph has gone 10-6-2 over their last 18 games played. As a team, they have produced a team K/D ratio of 1.07 and look to be in solid form as of right now. Grim is the best player on this squad as he has produced a 1.29 K/D ratio over the last 18 maps played. He is priced at $9,800 which makes him the most expensive player on the slate but there is upside to rostering him.  Junior has had a 1.14 K/D ratio over the last month and is priced at $7,000 which makes him a very solid pick regardless if you stack Triumph or want to use him as a one-off. If looking for a third piece, Spongey has put together a solid K/D ratio of 1.08 and is just $6,600 on this slate.

TeamOne has shown solid form and will put up a fight in this matchup. Over their last 19 maps played, they have gone 11-8 and produced a team K/D ratio of 1.07. Their top two performers have been b4rtiN and Maluk3 who have both produced a K/D ratio of above 1.15 over the last month of games played. The game log watchers might look at this team and pay down for pesadelo and MalbsMd due to their DK averages and game logs but the real focus from this squad should be on the first two names mentioned. Maluk3 is dirt cheap at $6,400 and is definitely viable on this slate with his recent form.  

Pick: Triumph wins 2-1

Yeah vs. MiBR

MiBR looks to have more of a sizable advantage in this matchup. They come in ranked #14 in the world while Yeah is ranked #76 overall. Both teams have done well in their last five games as MiBR has won three of their last five while Yeah has won four of their last five matches. When looking at the playable maps, MiBR has a better winning percentage on four of the seven playable maps and has a four map winning streak on Mirage while Yeah has a five map losing streak playing there. Yeah has not banned that map in the last three months so it would be wise to ban that one if possible. 

MiBR has been pretty average over the last month of games played. They are 12-11- in their last 25 games played and have produced a team K/D ratio of 1.04 over that span. FalleN and kNgV- have really been the standout players to look at from a roster construction standpoint. Over the last month, they have both produced a K/D ratio above 1.10 and are both priced really well for this slate. Fer has been really underwhelming with his play lately since he has a 1 K/D ratio over the last month and it would be better to just punt down and grab trk who has had a .99 K/D ratio over the same timespan and is almost $3,000 cheaper. 

Yeah is actually priced up like they are the favorites in this matchup. Over the last month, they have only played eight maps and have gone 5-3 in that stretch. RCF and dumau have really done well as they both have above 1.30 K/D ratio over that timeframe with tatazin carrying a 1.12 K/D ratio. If you were looking to go against the grain and were searching for an upset stack, it would start with Yeah and the guys mentioned above.

Pick: MiBR sweeps 2-0

 

Captain Picks: FalleN, kNgV-, Grim, Junior, b4rtiN

Value: trk, Junior, spongey, Maluk3
