Get a head start on the fantasy season with some early points.

The second fantasy game of the Spring 2022 season is now live for Malta Vibes Knockout Series 5. The event features a large single elimination bracket, with eight teams invited to the round of sixteen and eight more to come from the earlier stages.

While only eight teams are currently available to pick from, eight more will be added once the qualified teams are decided.

flamie will be playing his first games with 1WIN

Due to the format of the event being a single elimination bracket, players from teams that go far in the event will be much more valuable as they will be able to play more games. So players from fnatic and Copenhagen Flames could end up with more points in the end, if they live up to their high rank.

Some specific players to look at could be William "⁠mezii⁠" Merriman, who has put up an impressive 1.20 rating in the last three months with a price of $217,000, or David "⁠n0rb3r7⁠" Danielyan (1.16 rating, $211,000) from K23, who recently upset Astralis.

Some cheaper players who may not garner a lot of points but could be cost efficient are Freddy "⁠KRIMZ⁠" Johansson, Sanzhar "⁠neaLaN⁠" Iskhakov, or even Denis "⁠Grashog⁠" Hristov for those who want to bet on a solid run from AGO.
