Forward-looking CS2 analytics.

Created by a passionate Counter-Strike fan.

There is real money moving on Counter-Strike every week of the year. Apps like Kalshi, Polymarket, DraftKings, Underdog and more all cover the sport. The volume is serious and growing. What is missing is analysis from someone who actually watches the matchups.

I have followed pro Counter-Strike for over 20 years and played competitively at a high level. If the Super Bowl and a CS2 Grand Final were on at the same time, I'd watch the Counter-Strike game. And I absolutely LOVE the NFL. That passion and game knowledge is what separates a genuine read from a number pulled off a stat sheet.

Before this I was the long-serving Director of Content at RotoGrinders, one of the first full-time hires building DFS and sports betting coverage.

Why Game of Skill

In 2006, Congress carved daily fantasy sports out of federal gambling law on the basis that DFS is a game of skill, not chance. The name is a nod to that ruling.

CS2 is the focus for now. Other sports will follow.
