ESEA CS 1.6 Invite Season 8 Preview

This is the best Canadian lineup in recent memory and, in all honesty, might be on par or better than the greatest Canadian lineups of all time such as LnD, xeno, nerve, and pre-CGS EG. This team is talented.

However, having talent and being a post season threat are two entirely different things. Looking at this line-up I just don't see the big game experience that really separates DiNC and EG from the rest of the ESEA-Invite teams. I very much see these guys on the same "level" as RUINS. They have the potential to be spoilers, but the track record really isn't there to make a more ballsy prediction.

To be frank the A51 line-up was never all that experienced to start with. Adding semphis and a2z upped their experience level, but still a2z is the only person on their roster who has played in an ESEA Grand Finals. They will need to quickly get their sea legs in ESEA Invite if they plan to make a concerted push to dethrone EG.

This season will be better than last season for Area 51. They will make playoffs with little trouble, but will have difficulty breaking into the top three.
