PGL Cluj-Napoca – Tuesday, February 17th
Only a few more playoff spots are up for grabs in Romania.
Here’s the schedule:
Mousesports vs. FUT
FaZe vs. Astralis
Natus Vincere vs. The MongolZ
B8 vs. Aurora

G2 vs. HEROIC
All series will be in a best-of-three format. Matches start early on Tuesday and run through the afternoon for those in the USA.
Here’s a look at the top individual performers from yesterday:
Series Predictions
Our picks for each game on the upcoming slate
FUT > Mousesports 2-1
FaZe > Astralis 2-1
Natus Vincere > The MongolZ 2-1
Aurora > B8 2-0
FURIA > PARIVISION 2-1
G2 > HEROIC 2-0
My notes for the slate:
— We are calling the upset for FUT over Mousesports. Even though MOUZ is way more experienced and has the well-known players, FUT has been on a dramatic rise and is playing great CS. This could be closer than people think.
— It’s ironic that FaZe and Astralis are meeting up for a spot in the playoffs, as both teams have been similar in their inconsistency. It’s another matchup we could see ending up either way considering the ups and downs we’ve seen from karrigan’s and HooXi’s crews.
— FURIA/PARIVISION should be a great one. Both teams are in great form and have been going deep into tournaments. We’ll give the slight edge to FURIA, given the team has more experience across the board.

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.
