Nine to Five Dawn

Best of 3

• ALTERNATE aTTaX (-475) vs. GamerLegion (+300)
• CR4ZY (+125) vs. Tikitakan (-170)
• SG.pro (-185) vs. BIG Academy (+135)

 

Captain Plays:

Slaxz- has really emerged as a star player for AA and while he will be tough to fit into your lineups on this slate, he could really pay off. He has produced a 1.29 K/D ratio over the last 63 maps played while having a +298 K/D differential.

He offers upside while having a great floor which is seen in his .76 kill per round rate and low death per round rate of .59. When looking for a captain play, slaxz- is an ideal choice based on his solid floor and upside. 

Fame checks in at a great price of just $7,600 which is cheap for the upside that he presents. Over the last 41 maps played, he has accrued a 1.13 K/D ratio and a +102 K/D differential which leads the SG.pro squad. 

He does have upside as he has a .79 kill per round rate over the last month of games played. If you are needing to pay down for a player that has upside, Fame would be one to look at in all formats.

Other captain plays: SENSEi

 

Value Plays:

Kise is one of the best overall values on the slate due to his $7,000 price tag. He is second on the SG.pro squad in the K/D ratio department as he has a 1.10 ratio over the last 42 maps played.

He carries a .72 kill per round rate while having a .65 death per round rate which is very sold for the price range that he is in. He is viable in all formats especially if you are looking to create some salary relief for your lineup.

Sergiz is $6,800 on this slate which is just too cheap to ignore. He leads CR4ZY with a 1.06 K/D ratio over the last 72 maps played while having a +80 K/D differential during that timespan.

 Sergiz has a higher propensity of dying based on his .66 death per round rate but has a solid .70 kill per round rate so he does have some upside. Sergiz is better suited for tournament lineups based on his higher propensity of dying while still having upside.

Other value plays: Djur, demQQ

Top Stacks/ Team Picks:

ALTERNATE aTTaX comes into this matchup as the #34 ranked squad and as winners of two of their last five matches played. Over the last 40 matches that they have played, they have won 42.5% by the way of a 2-0 sweep which is very impressive. They have a sizable advantage when it comes to the playable maps as they have a higher winning percentage on five of the seven viable maps. Over the last 63 maps played, AA has gone 40-23 and accumulated a team K/D ratio of 1.11 while GamerLegion has gone 9-10 with a team K/D ratio of .96.

ALTERNATE aTTaX is a very well rounded team and they have four really strong players to choose from. Slaxz- has led this team in K/D ratio over the last month with a 1.29 K/D ratio and a +298 K/D differential. Kressy, stfn, and mirbit have also played well as they all carry K/D ratios above 1.10 over the same time span and offer some great salary savings on the slate. AA is priced way up there so it will be rather tough to squeeze in three of their players into one lineup.  

SG.pro is the second-largest favorite on the slate and looks to be a good team to target in this matchup against BIG Academy. Both teams come into this match as winners of three of their last five matches played and are similar in their recent form as they both have sub .500 records over their last month of games played while having sub 1.00 team K/D ratios. SG.pro does carry the map on four of the seven playable maps which does give them a slight edge in this matchup.

SG.pro has some solid plays that could be good value plays for your lineups. Fame has been playing great throughout this tournament as he has a 1.26 match rating which leads this squad during this event. Fame and Kise pose a great mini stacking option on this team while s1natoRRR is a value piece that is viable if trying to create a three-man SG.pro stack.

Other Top Stacks/ Teams:  CR4ZY
