Counter Strike: Global Offensive DFS Picks (5/11/20) - DraftKings Daily Fantasy

Jorge Pucks' DraftKings. FanDuel DFS lineup picks for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on 5/11/20. He analyzes CS:GO slates and top targets for ESports DFS contests.

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 DFS at RotoBaller! As always, I will do my best to give you the stats and info you need to build the best lineups possible for your GPP and cash game CSGO contests on Draftkings and FanDuel. 

We have a two-game main slate on DraftKings that is a part of the BLAST Rising 2020 tournament. This is a unique tournament since this is a best of 1 game slate/ We will be looking for pure floor and upside plays since we only get one game for our players to produce fantasy stats.

Today I'll be bringing you my Counter-Strike: Global Offensive DFS advice, analysis, and lineup picks for eSports DFS contests on DraftKings for Monday, May 11th, 2020 at 11:00 AM. Feel free to follow me on Twitter @jorgepucks as I am happy to engage with readers and try to answer your questions!

BLAST Rising 2020 (Best of 1)

• Tricked vs. ALTERNATE aTTaX (-225)
• Endpoint (-250) vs. Salamander

CS:GO DFS Captain Considerations

CRUC1AL is one of the best plays on this slate and is the second-highest priced player overall on DK. He is averaging 38.8 DK points per game and has a 1.26 K/D ratio over the last month. He also has a .77 kill per round rate while also having a .61 death per round rate as well over the same time span so he has been performing really well. With this only being a 1 game match, we will need our captain to have a high floor and CRUC1AL provides that for this matchup.

Kressy is the top option on the slate from a price standpoint and he is one of the safest options to roll out for the captain role. He has a 1.19 K/D ratio over the last month and carries a .78 kill per round rate while having a .65 death per round rate over the same time frame. In his lone match against Tricked, he went +1 but had 23 kills in one round. He is a great option for both cash games and gpp tournaments as well.

Other captain plays: Thomas, mirbit, Lucky (contrarian pick)

CS:GO DFS Value Plays

Mirbit is a great value for $7,000. He is carrying a 1.20 K/D ratio over the last month and led this team in K/D differential in their lone matchup against Tricked last month. Mirbit has had a .74 kill per round rate while having a .61 death per round rate over the last six maps played. He also makes for a great value captain play in case you were looking at paying up to fit more top guys into your lineup. 

Surreal has been flying under the radar over the last 45 maps played. Over that span, he has produced a 1.17 K/D ratio while having a .74 kill per round rate and a .63 death per round rate. In his last 45 maps played, he has finished 73.3% of them with a 1+ rating which shows how consistent he has been. Surreal might not have as much upside as others on this slate but should be considered in all formats and even worth a low owned stab as a captain play if looking for salary savings.

Other value plays: robiin

Top CS:GO DFS Stacks 

ALTERNATE aTTaX has won three of their last five games and has a 1-0 record against Tricked. They played their lone match against Tricked last month and won 16-11 with Mirbit leading the charge with a +8 K/D differential. ALTERNATE aTTaX has had a team K/D ratio of 1.10 over the last month with three players producing an above 1 K/D ratio over that timespan. Slaxz- leads the way with a 1.41 K/D ratio over the last 6 maps while kressy and Mirbit are great stacking options as well.

Endpoint is the higher-ranked team in this matchup and has won four of their last five matches while Salamander comes into this match-winning three of their last five matches. Endpoint also has the head-to-head record of 1-0 in a lopsided victory of a 16-3 win which took place earlier in April. CRUC1AL and Thomas lead this squad with rating and K/D ratios but also both went +12 in that stand-alone matchup against Salamander. Surreal also had a +12 K/D differential in that lone game against Salamander so those would be the three main Endpoint players to target.
