Welcome back, RotoBallers, to another edition of my Counter-Strike: Global Offensive DFS picks. I have to admit, I am having a ton of fun playing and covering Esports at Rotoballer! As always, I will do my best to give you the stats and info you need to build the best lineups possible.
We are moving back over to the LOOT.BET league for this early morning two-game slate. This is my first time researching this league and we continue to see Draftkings hunt down some different leagues in an attempt to keep posting CS: GO slates every day.
Today I'll be bringing you my Counter-Strike: Global Offensive DFS advice, analysis and picks for ESports DFS contests on DraftKings Tuesday, April 21st, 2020 at 5:30 AM. Feel free to follow me on Twitter @rdr1634 as I am happy to engage with readers and try to answer your questions!

LOOT.BET Season 6 (Best of 3 format)
- Nemiga vs. Japaleno
- Secret vs, Hard Legion
CS: GO DFS Captain Considerations
FEDDDyFROG has been playing very well over the course of the LOOT.BET Season 6 as he has accumulated a 1.26 K/D ratio over the seven maps that he has played. He has a 1.14 K/D ratio for the last four months but carries a 1.21 K/D career ratio. He is a threat to due damage as he averages .75 kills per round and only has a death rate of .62 per round. He is the third highest-priced player on this slate but his salary won’t make you break the bank.
Speed4k is the second-highest priced player on the slate but is worth paying up for. He carries a 1.12 K/D ratio since the beginning of 2020 and has a .78 kill per round rate during the LOOT.BET season 6. He has been in great form as he has gone +45 for his K/D differential throughout season 6 and has a 1.28 K/D ratio over his last nine maps played. He will need to play well if Nemiga wants to sweep this matchup against Japaleno.
Anarkez is an interesting pick because the game log watchers will look and see his 101.5 Dk point average on the one-game sample size, but this is a proceed with caution play! While he has been doing well recently, he has carried a 1.01 K/D ratio over the last four months and has a career K/D ratio of 1.02. If you think this hot streak will continue, make sure to get a piece of him into your lineups.
CS: GO DFS Value Plays
Jyo is $6,800 and while that is on the higher end of the value spectrum, he is a great play for his price. He has a 1.09 K/D ratio since the start of 2020 and has a .71 kill per round rate which is very solid. He has a career 1.07 K/D ratio and ranks third on the team in K/D ratio per the past month (1.15). He would be a great stacking piece if you are trying to build a Nemiga stack and need some salary relief.
Juanflatroo comes in extremely under-priced at $5,600. He has a career 1.05 K/D ratio and since the start of 2020, he has racked up a 1.07 K/D ratio while also having a .76 kill per round rate. He has played against Hard Legion in two maps and has a 1.18 K/D ratio against them. He looks to be a good value one-off that presents some upside due to his mispricing.

Top CS: GO DFS Stacks
Nemiga comes into this match as the bookmakers favorite and as winners of three of their last five games while Japaleno has lost five straight games. Japaleno is the higher-ranked team by two spots but Nemiga has been playing like the overall better team. Nemiga carries a 1.04 team K/D ratio over their last 62 maps (30-32-0 record) while Japaleno has a team K/D ratio of 1.02 and a total record of 10-25-0 over their last 44 maps played.
Nemiga has three guys that have above a 1.10 K/D ratio in the last 12 maps that they have played. Speed4k is the main cog to this Nemiga squad while lollipop21k serves as a great stacking partner. Lollipop21k has a 1.21 K/D ratio over the last nine maps that he has played and is reasonably priced at $7,600. If you were looking for a value piece from this stack, see above on why Jyo is your player!
Secret and Hard Legion will be a tight contest and it wouldn’t be a surprise if this went the full three games to determine a winner. Secret is coming into this matchup as winners of four of their last five games while Hard Legion is coming in winning two straight games. Hard Legion is the higher-ranked team but Secret looks to be the bookmakers favorite choice and is in with better form overall. When looking at everything, this seems like a great time to do two players from Secret and one from Hard Legion.
Secret has Anarkez and Juanflatroo who have both been performing well lately and will likely be the chalkier options from this team. Percy is one to consider as he might be a lower owned option from this squad. On the Hard Legion side, Forester has been solid over the last four months as he has produced a 1.08 K/D ratio over the last four months and has generated a 1.10 rating for this event.
