Pêra vs. Ellevens Esports

Rocket League Spring Series opens with the South American region and potentially one of the most one-sided matches of the day. Ellevens come in as the RLCS champions, going 7-0 in the regular season, and winning playoffs without dropping a single series. P formed from a mix of Poison Bullets and Most Wanted, who finished sixth and third, respectively. Ellevens come in as heavy favorites in this game, and they are heavy favorites for the entire tournament, on the back of superstars caard and CaioTG1, who will look to make a statement in the first round of the Spring Series. Pera will look to fAsi and Repi to shut down the high-powered offense of Ellevens, as they try and open with an upset. The value from this series will come on either an upset from P, or a dominant performance from the superstars of Ellevens.

Ellevens come in as the RLCS champions, going 7-0 in the regular season, and winning playoffs without dropping a single series.

EE Players to Target: caard ($17,400 DraftKings, $17,600 FanDuel), CaioTG1 ($15,900 DraftKings, $18,200 FanDuel)

Chromax vs. True Neutral

The second match of the day is between Chromax and True Neutral, who come in as mix teams: True Neutral featuring two members from True Neutral in RLCS, as well as ajgAnotherGuy from Three Point Shooters; Chromax is two members from The Three Sins, as well as one from Poison Bullets. These two teams should be relatively evenly matched, as both were strong in RLCS and waltzed through the open qualifiers. If Droppz and Brad can show their top form then Chromax will be confident coming into the match, while True Neutral will be looking to mesh with ajgAnotherGuy_ who could be the star turn for them. This match should be a good one to pick up some value, especially with Chromax, the core of which finished RLCS in fourth. True Neutral, on the other hand, had less success in RLCS but still look to be a threat for anyone, and they will be attempting to make a statement early in Spring Series.

CHR Players to Target: Droppz ($11,400 DraftKings, $16,000 FanDuel), Brad ($10,400 DraftKings, $11,900 FanDuel)

TN Players to Target: Reysbull ($10,000 DraftKings, $14,000 FanDuel)

Locusts vs. Avidity Esports

Locusts and Avidity feature in the third match of the day, with Locusts a full mix-team thanks to one member each from Three Point Shooters, Sapphire, and True Neutral. Avidity come in with their full strength lineup off the back of a second-place finish in RLCS, taking Ellevens all the way to Game 7 in the grand final. While this series has potential to be close, Avidity will come in as favorites over anyone other than Ellevens, and with a tough tournament opener should come out firing on all cylinders. Locusts will need to have amazing individual performances from Superstars SppydeR and Lexim if they want to pull  of the upset over Avidity. Meanwhile, Avidity will look to Haberkamper and RenaN to put their mark on the series, with FirefoxD offering solid value as a high-shot, high-save player. Avidity might have the edge, but in a series that could be very back and forth, Locusts have the potential to put up solid points in their opener.

LOC Players to Target: Lexim ($9,200 DraftKings, $10,700 FanDuel)

AVD Players to Target: Haberkamper ($16,200 DraftKings, $15,200 Fanduel), FirefoxD ($9,000 DraftKings, $13,800 FanDuel)

Stiff Team vs. Team Renewed

Stiff Team, who were signed by eRa Eternity and now play under that moniker, close the slate out against Team Renewed, who played RLCS as The Three Sins and have now added math from Most Wanted. Team Renewed are the third and final team to qualify through RLCS Season 9 to the Spring Series, wheras Stiff Team played in through the Open Qualifier. This match could be close, but Team Renewed will come in as favorites and deservedly so. Valt and match provide extreme firepower, where PJ is a rock for the team helping lead them to a top-three RLCS Finish. eRa Eternity are a mix of Sapphire, Most Wanted, and adding Gian, who was not in RLCS in Season 9, joining the team for the Open Qualifier. If eRa Eternity want to take down their RLCS competition to open the tournament, it will take an exceptional performance from BRUNOVISQUII, who could be the star turn for this lineup. 

STF Players to Target: BRUNOVISQUII ($10,000 DraftKings, $12,700 FanDuel)

REN Players to Target: Valt ($11,000 DraftKings, $16,500 FanDuel), math ($10,800 DraftKings, $17,100 FanDuel)
