Forum thread: BUDGET PICKS!

boombla not worth188... jackz with a noob bonus is a way to go since he will be going for trade every time.

If you have the possibilty to use HS machine or leader I would use that instead to recieve more points.

HS machine would be more profitable on Twistzz if you got him, flair checks out but I personally think Faze will do good.

If you believe in FaZe, that is a really good choice yeah.

2022-01-26 21:13

do you think its possible to use support on jackz when i already have hs machine on b1t and leader on boombl

Can always put noob on JaCkz to recieve 2 points every game he plays.

2022-01-26 21:47

He probs is tho, navi will farm their group, and everyone should have a good rating. You can pick him as igl, and he will also get all the bonus points.

ill RNG it and hope he's not been exercising cause the bigger he gets the easier he can block chokepoints.

Went with Rush and s1mple. A gamble but hopefully it pays off. Good luck!

That will probably be a choice many will do. That, or NiKo/ZywOo instead of s1mple.

2022-01-26 20:22

Yeah picked s1mple since i expect him to go further in the tournament than the other two. You obviously have a good understanding of fantasy, how can m0nesy be the most expensive player?

what do you think of Grim as a budget pick. I picked him

2022-01-26 20:27

Im not a fan of Grim since he joined Liquid. He was a star in NA but it's only been downhill for him after he joined Liquid. Maybe he will be better in the complexity lineup but that is yet to see.

2022-01-26 20:36

8 replies

my thinking was that he has better roles in complexity and he showed some promise against gambit on vertigo so maybe he can do better than other budget picks like jackz or rush. But i have noob role on him just in case

I really like b1t. NAF & EliGE are interesting, they are cheap because their team is rated #223 in the world right now. Question is how they will do in their group and with their new lineup.

2022-01-26 21:48

4 replies

that was my thought. The other thing I considered this year was how many matches there will be. So a team going out early wont be a problem. I thought that I could still earn points off them even if the team doesnt perform well.

+1, and also have the chance to recieve a ton of points if Liquid manage to win a couple of matches.

Thanks for the idea. I have something in mind that will come later so stay tuned!

2022-01-27 08:56

I prefer grim as budget bit over rush. Complexity looked good against gambit other day and most importantly grim was not in support role so he has chances to shine.

2022-01-26 20:46

I got S1mple and tizian

2022-01-26 21:26

hltv.org/fantasy/247/league/118448/team/.. what do you think, im wondering if having tizian is worth having b1t + elec, the vita players are just a gamble tbh

2022-01-26 20:24

3 replies

I really like b1t. I used him alot before and he never disappointed me. Im a little bit sceptic about the Vitality players but on paper they should do well. Not sure about tiziaN either but of course you have to pick someone. I think BIG can have a pretty good chance in their group. NiP does not have device and complexity got a new lineup.

2022-01-26 20:28

Do you have enough money to change to K1to, he is a much better pick and I've seen some recent matches to see he's in form rn

2022-01-26 20:35

1 reply

I would rather go for k1to than Grim yeah.

2022-01-26 20:36

I Dont think its worth going with Rush in this specific Fantasy, there are so many good players like Magisk, Dupreeh, Aleksib, Shox and especially Naf, Elige and Misutaa who are very cheap for their stats.

2022-01-26 20:25

1 reply

EliGE/shox are tempting picks actually. They is really cheap because Liquids world rank is #223. Question is how Liquid will do in the tournament.

2022-01-26 20:42

I don't think i've ever seen a player this cheap, surely you have to pick RUSH.

2022-01-26 20:25

hltv.org/fantasy/247/league/118448/team/.. If you could help me out here, I thought of giving the leader role to electronic because he *will* win every match and HS to b1t because he always gets me points with that. Now what do i give to jackz??

2022-01-26 20:32

6 replies

I would put leader on JaCkz since I think G2 will win their group. Then I would probably use Defender or entry frag on electroNic in this case.

2022-01-26 20:39

I thought so too, but looking at G2s bracket coupled with the fact that they have new changes just worries me a little

2022-01-26 20:52

Hello minte. Im glad to hear that! I would not recommend to trust NiP so much right now since device wont play. So I would atleast change hampus here. Also, I dont like the "clutch king" role.

2022-01-26 21:03

Only cheap players who are not always bottom fragging and are in good team. With winning team is easier to get better score with cheap players. For this event potentialy good cheap players: Boombl4 Aleksib JACKZ gla1ve Lucky

Krimz had 1,10 rating in last 3 months and he was technically best possible pick, I knew that he is washed and those stats are just farmed in tier3 but still picked him because he had good numbers and you know whats happened. You can't really analyse shit when teams didn't play for like 1,5 months and there are no actual data.

Pretty balanced yeah but im sceptic of the Aleksib pick.

2022-01-26 21:06

1 reply

I am too but I usually go for 2-2-1 teams and everyone is so damn expensive. I trust more in G2 than in Vitality especially since Vitality is in the toughest group. So, NAVI, G2, Vitality and FaZe are the only "safe" team picks. NAVI is a no-brainer. Either I risk it with Vitality or I go with Aleksib and huNter. I don't want JaCkZ+boombl4 in my team. If I went with 2 from Vitality, 1 from G2 then either: b1t, boombl4, dupreeh, magisk. aleksib Or b1t, boombl4, apEX, misutaaa, Hunter This last one is arguably the most balanced. I go with that one I guess but I fear that in attempting to accomodate dupreeh and magisk, misutaaa will likely draw the short stick and get all the supportive roles and shitty positions.

2022-01-26 22:35

Could always go with leader. I think G2 will do good in their grp.

2022-01-27 09:00

hltv.org/fantasy/247/league/118448/team/.. I decided to not go for the AWP. Also, this season I will test out the theory that if you always pick the favorite teams, you will do well more times than not. For ULTI it worked, gambit carried me to a top 4% finish. For Malta vibes, Ecstatic and CPH ruined me and I finished below 60%. Let's see how this balanced team goes in blast

2022-01-26 22:03

I think Syrson actually is a very good value pick. He will almost always activate the AWP role and he has looked a lot better lately.
