Florida Mutineers caused a huge upset last week when they defeated Dallas Empire (3-1), to which they added another solid showing against Los Angeles Guerrillas (3-1). The Mutineers are now tied with Toronto Ultra atop of Group B and two wins short of a perfect run.
Toronto Ultra have been just as successful this stage, with three clean wins against Minnesota RØKKR (3-1), Los Angeles Guerrillas (3-0), and Seattle Surge (3-0). However, as impressive as those numbers might look, Ultra haven’t faced a tough opponent yet, and are 3-2 in their last five, with losses to Atlanta FaZe (1-3) and Dallas Empire (2-3).
It’s also important to mention that Mutineers already beat Ultra (3-2) during CDL Stage 4. Toronto Ultra might be a much better team on paper, but we wouldn’t underestimate the surging Mutineers and their ability to force a tight series. We like the Mutineers with a 1.5 handicap.

Surge enter this match with a 0-3 record on the stage, which includes losses to Florida Mutineers (1-3), Minnesota RØKKR (0-3), and Toronto Ultra (0-3). Dallas Empire are 2-1 with wins against Los Angeles Guerrillas (3-0) and Minnesota RØKKR (3-1) and a loss against Florida Mutineers (1-3).
Even though Dallas Empire dropped one game, they’re still in great shape and shouldn’t struggle against the Surge, who have managed only seven wins on the season – two of which came during CDL Stage 4 Major.
There is a world where Seattle Surge steal one map against the Empire, but there’s an equal chance that they lose 0-3. Seattle haven’t managed a single notable win outside of LAN, and it doesn’t seem like that will change here.
