Counter-Strike 2 AI Picks
ESL Pro Tour, BLAST Premier, IEM, Majors
CS2 transition from CS:GO created data uncertainty that retail books still haven't fully digested. Pistol-round win rate and map preference are where the value hides right now.
Counter-Strike 2 markets we cover
T-side / CT-side pistol
Top-tier CT-side pistol specialists tend to outperform weaker T2 opponents; book pricing often doesn't fully capture that gap. Exact hit-rate series-specific.
Over 26.5 rounds
Both-teams-can-win maps (Nuke/Inferno late) frequently go deep. Total-rounds overs often look underpriced on tight matchups.
Which team gets first kill
Opening-duel win rate is a public stat (HLTV); books don't price it sharply for T2 events.
