DraftKings Call of Duty: Friday Cheat Sheet

DraftKings Call of Duty: Friday Cheat Sheet

This article is part of our DraftKings Call of Duty series.

GAMES (EDT)

  • 4:00 p.m: Atlanta Faze vs. Paris Legion
  • 5:30 p.m: London Royal Ravens vs. OpTic Gaming
  • 7:00 p.m: New York Subliners vs. Toronto Ultra
  • 8:30 p.m: Minnesota ROKKR vs. Florida Mutineers

Atlanta vs. Paris

We didn't get a chance to see Paris in the Dallas home series, but we did see how dominant Atlanta can be when everyone is running on all cylinders. Legion has a really good roster with so much slaying potential, but the lack of leadership is what keeps them from closing games. This one could be a blowout because Atlanta's hard-point is superb with Simp, a standout player who is able to slay inside the hill without his teammates being around. Their SnD game is the best out of any team at this tournament, and you could see an easy 2-0 jump start from the Faze team, which will put much more pressure on Paris.

Prediction: ATL 3-1

Atlanta Players to Target: Simp ($8,800), Abezy ($7,400)

Paris Players to Target: KISMET ($7,200)

London vs. OpTic Gaming LA

London made a roster change by bringing up seany, and they looked really good with their veteran presence of Jurd, Skrapz and wuskinz. This team has a tough time in the hard-points, as their rotations to new hills are stopped because of the slaying power they have, but they are hard to break when they set up. OGLA looked awful last series because Jkap had zero map pressure. He use to be a highly touted AR player

This team has a tough time in the hard-points, as their rotations to new hills are stopped because of the slaying power they have, but they are hard to break when they set up. OGLA looked awful last series because Jkap had zero map pressure. He use to be a highly touted AR player and is still one of the greats, but he and the tam have really struggled to get anything going. They are bringing in Chino, who has been around in the CoD community for a long time, and this might be a horizontal move because Chino is a very smart SnD player. LA seems to be trying new things, as Dashy and Slasher might be seeing role changes for this upcoming event. That being said, give me a solidified team that has good chemistry and shown the ability to take out some of the better teams.

Prediction: London 3-1

London Players to Target: Skrapz ($7600), Jurd ($6800)

Los Angeles Players to Target: Dashy ($8200), Kuavo ($7200) (his real Gamertag is Kenny)

Toronto vs. New York

We haven't seen Toronto play yet, but this is a team filled with old and new players who have beaten both Dallas and Florida, winners of the last two events. They are decent online, but their teamwork is where everything comes into place. Almost every game they've played has been close, including their two-game wins. New York were at that point going into the Dallas event, and they have looked great ever since bringing in Mack. From working with NY personally, this team has improved a lot in their hard-point game, as their subs are being more aggressive in lanes and around the hills to set up accuracy to free fire on the backline. Mack brings in a lot for SnD, which NY also had trouble with before, and I can see them continuing to improve with such a talented coach in Revan.

Prediction: NY 3-1

New York Players to Target: Attach ($7800), Mack ($7600)

Toronto Players to Target: Bance ($7600), Cammy ($7200)

Minnesota vs. Florida

This game could go the distance because these are two of the better teams in the league. Florida struggled heavily to win any SnD games before their last time out, but they won the Dallas event without the best individual players because they have one of the better respawn games of any team. The unselfishness from these guys to be able to hop onto objectives at any time and not play for their own stats makes them a really strong team. On the other side, we have a star-studded Minnesota lineup that can't quite figure out how to excel together. They have the best slaying power in the league, led by GodRx and Assault, who are two of the better ARs in the circuit. They are a consistent team, finishing second or third in the four events they've played this year, but their one flaw is their SnD game. This is a tough one because if Florida can take that first respawn then they can win the SnD right after putting Minnesota on the back foot.

Prediction: FLA 3-2

Florida Players to Target: Havok ($6800), Fero ($9400)

Minnesota Players to Target: GodRx ($8600), Assault ($8400)
