AVANT vs. Paradox Preview & Preview - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 8/10
AVANT and Paradox will face each other in the upper bracket quarterfinals of the ESEA Season 34: Premier Division Australia. ESEA Season 34: Premier Division - Australia started with seventeen teams competing for a $9,500 prize pool. The tournament is now down to its last eight teams. The top four teams will qualify for the ESEA Season 35.
The 87th ranked AVANT has been on a roll recently winning matches against Rooster, Paradox and other teams. The team also lost twice to ORDER, but that was a result of the massive skill difference between the two teams. AVANT includes some popular Australian CS:GO names like sterling, BL1TZ and others. Inferno, Nuke and Dust2 are the best maps for the team, but it is also well-versed on Mirage and Train.
Paradox is ranked 107th but has been on a losing streak recently. The team has lost four of its last five matches highlighting the problems in its map pool and preparedness for these matches. Mirage and Vertigo are the best maps for Paradox, although they have a decent presence on the other maps as well.
Pick: Over 2.5 Maps (+139 @ Pinnacle)
The two teams have played each other a lot of items in the recent past. While AVANT has traditionally been the better team, the last time the two teams faced each other, Paradox put up a strong fight. The last series went the distance of over 2.5 maps. I am taking this series to continue in the same way and go over 2.5 maps.
