Being a degen is a core principle of our SGPN family. Well, what’s more degen than sweating out how many 180s will be thrown in a darts match? Or how many kills a player will get in Call of Duty? Allow us to introduce our Degens Only Play of the Day, a pick so obscure, it will have you friends questioning your sanity.
Every day, we scour sportsbooks and DFS sites for that one special play off the beaten path. Today, we turn our attention to the world of Counter-Strike in Esports and the Champion of Champions Tour North American Series. Here we find an Underdog Fantasy pick that has potential.

Tuesday, August 12th, 8:30 p.m. ET
John Marin, aka mds, enters this match with the lowest overall rating (0.91) on his team. Over the last month, he has managed only a 0.79 K/D ratio. He has failed to reach 23 kills in the first two maps in seven of this last ten matches
So far, mds has not been able to reach 10 first maps kills in either of his two CCT Season 3 North American Series #1 matches. He’s also only averaged 20 kills in the first two rounds in that span.
Chicken Coop will be facing Wildcard for the first time this series. However, these teams met last in March. Wildcard walked away with a convincing 2-0 victory in that match. At the time, mds was not a member of the Chicken Coop squad.
