ESL Pro League Season 12 Europe/ North America

Best of 3

  • Complexity (-250) vs. Mousesports (+180)
  • OG (-115) vs. ENCE (-115)
  • Furia (+185) Evil Geniuses (-250)
  • BIG  (-280) vs. GODSENT (+195)

 

Captain Plays:

blameF carries a high price tag of 10k on this slate but he does have one of the largest ceilings from a scoring capacity. He is averaging 70.5 DK points per game and carries an incredible 1.44 K/D ratio over the last 19 maps that he has played.

He is arguably the safest play as he has a .76 kill per round rate while having a very low death per round rate of .53. If you can find the value for your lineups, blameF is certainly viable in both cash games and tournament builds.

syrsoN is another high-upside play on this slate that gives you a little bit of salary relief from paying 10k for blameF. syrsoN leads this BIG squad with a 1.21 K/D ratio over the last three months of matches played while having a .73 kill per round rate during that span.

One thing about syrsoN is that he is extremely consistent as he has scored 60+ DK points in four of his last six games played. With BIG being such a heavy favorite, he would be one to consider for cash games based on his high floor and consistent play.

Other captain plays: poizon, mantuu

 

Value Plays:

ISSAA is always coming in underpriced for his play so we might as well go back and consider him for this slate. He is just $6,200 and is averaging 51.4 DK points per game. When looking at his most recent games, he has scored 60+ DK points in three straight games which means he is in really good form.

Over the last 32 maps played, ISSAA has produced a 1.05 K/D ratio and a 52% headshot percentage. In addition, he accrued a .67 kill per round rate while only having a .63 death per round rate during that same timespan. If you're needing a value piece for both cash and tournament lineups, ISSAA would be a primary target. He is also viable for a cheap captain play to get exposure to some higher-priced plays as well.

arT doesn't have the most impressive numbers but he is in a solid price point of $6,000 that is too low to not consider. He has been pretty consistent over his last three matches as he has scored 50+ DK points in all three of those games.

Over the last 19 maps played, arT has generated a .95 K/D ratio while having a .70 kill per round rate. The one concerning thing is that his death per round rate is at a .7 which tells us that he is a more volatile player that isn't afraid to get killed.

Other value plays:  tizian, oBo, art, yuurih, tarik, rush

Top Stacks/ Team Picks:

Complexity has been one of the overall better teams in the world over the last month. They are ranked #5 and are winners of four of their last five matches played while also owning a 2-0 record against Mousesports all-time. Over the last month, Complexity has gone 13-6 with a team K/D ratio of 1.15 which is extremely strong while Mousesports has gone 7-9 with a team K/D ratio of just .88. From a map edge standpoint, Complexity owns a higher winning percentage on six of the seven playable maps and this is based on the last three months of games played.

blameF has been a big reason for Complexity's success throughout the summer.  He leads the team with a 1.44 K/D ratio and carries a +125 K/D differential over his last 19 maps played. Poizon carries the second-highest K/D ratio on the team but also carries a high pricepoint so it will be tough to squeeze them all together. If looking for a tad cheaper option, k0nfig and oBo carry a cheaper price tag and still get you exposure to the Complexity squad.

BIG is the largest favorite on the slate and it is hard to not want to stack them against GODSENT. They have won three of their last five games played and are a top-five team in the world. BIG has found success against GODSENT in the past as they own a 4-0 record against them and have gone 39-17 over the last three months of matches played.

BIG has many viable pieces to use but they are on the expensive side of this slate. syrsoN leads this group with a 1.21 K/D ratio over the last three months but right behind him is XANTARES with a 1.19 K/D ratio. tabsen is viable but his price tag makes it tough to stack with either of the two main BIG players. If needing a salary saver from this squad, tizian is the one to target.

Other Top Stacks/ Teams: OG
