CS2 Props – Counter-Strike Predictions & Picks Today
Counter-Strike games take place all throughout the day. In order to maintain consistency and expectations, CS2 props will be posted when there are significant events taking place.
We have another big LAN event starting up. The world’s best teams will be in attendance, and the tournament will be split into two stages.
In the first stage, there will be 16 teams fighting it out for eight spots into Stage 2, where eight more elite squads await, including the likes of Vitality, FURIA, Spirit and Falcons.
IEM Krakow – Saturday, January 31st
We have reached the final stage of IEM Krakow.
All series will be in a best-of-three format. Here’s the schedule:
The MongolZ vs. G2
Natus Vincere vs. PARIVISION
FURIA vs. FUT
Spirit vs. Astralis
Vitality vs. BC.Game
FaZe vs. 3DMAX
Matches start early on Saturday and run through the afternoon for those in the USA.
Series Predictions
Our picks for each game on the upcoming slate
The MongolZ > G2 2-1
Na’Vi > PARIVISION 2-1
FURIA > FUT 2-1
Spirit > Astralis 2-0
Vitality > BC.Game 2-0
FaZe > 3DMAX 2-1
My notes:
— The MongolZ will make their debut with a new fifth, and it’s a tricky opening matchup against G2, who showed some nice performances in the opening stages. On an individual level, MATYS has looked very sharp at this event so far.
— The Na’Vi/PARIVISION game should be a banger. PARIVISION has quickly become one of the most feared teams out there, and we wouldn’t be surprised if they kept the momentum going. We’ll go with the experience of Na’Vi in this spot, however.
— We get to see some elite talent join the party on Saturday, including FURIA’s molodoy and Spirit’s donk. We expect relatively straightforward wins for both teams, though FUT could make life difficult if FURIA doesn’t come in prepared from the start.
— So hard to get a read on BC.Game, as we’ve already seen some extreme highs and troubling lows at this event. They just surprised NIP with a 2-0 series win, but the level of competition is next level against the world’s best team in Vitality. It’d be quite shocking if BC.Game secures even one map win here.

Counter-Strike FAQ – CS2 DFS Pick’Em
Read on for more information on CS2 props and DFS pick’em.
What is Counter-Strike?
CS2 is a popular video game in which two teams play 5v5.
The first team to win 13 rounds wins that particular “map”, and there are best-of-one, best-of-three, and best-of-three series depending on the tournament.
To win a round, a team must eliminate all of the opposing players or complete a team objective.
For the CT (Counter-Terrorist) side, the team goal is to defuse the bomb if planted by the Terrorist (T) side. For the T side, the objective is to eliminate all five opposing CTs OR plant the bomb and protect it long enough for it to explode.
For DFS and betting purposes, you can either participate in DFS contests where you build a full lineup of CS2 players, or you can try to predict individual player performance.
Just like in traditional sports, there are star players who accumulate more fantasy points in general, and recent player/team form and matchups can play a huge role in deciphering the best plays on a day-to-day basis.
