Envy come in ranked #22 in the world, BASEMENT BOYS #93.

Our call publishes before kickoff. Free on csedge.io — premium members get every call up front.

Envy

✅ Dust2 strength: 77% winrate over 13 maps is a strong tactical pick

✅ Reliably steers the veto to Cache (52% pick rate)

❌ Only 36% winrate on Nuke over 11 maps — exploitable in the veto

❌ Practically never plays Mirage (100% banned), reducing veto flexibility

BASEMENT BOYS

✅ Mirage strength: 72% winrate over 18 maps is a strong tactical pick

❌ Only 42% winrate on Cache over 12 maps — exploitable in the veto

❌ Heavy Inferno ban usage (84% bans) limits their map bargaining
