1/13 LPL League Of Legends DFS Breakdown

Welcome to my 1/13 LPL League Of Legends DFS Breakdown, we are looking to hit for a third straight night after once again getting our main plays for the slate right in LNG and T1. Tonight we have another 4 game slate to break down and I am looking forward to putting out my plays for the day’s matches. We have NS/HLE, DWG/KT, Weibo(SN)/WE, and IG vs TT. There are some really interesting builds that I am looking forward to for tonight so let’s dive in and take our shot at the green on this slate.

NS vs HLE

These are two teams that are coming off a lot of changes in the offseason and they moved in very different directions with their overall rosters as NS got better as a team overall and HLE got oh so much worse. I don’t have much to say about this game overall as I believe it is going to be a sweep and a key spot to be looking into for cash games tonight but only as smaller stacks. HLE is going to get rolled over here with their new roster while the new look NS is going to be able to show what they are about with Canna, Dread, Bdd, Ghost, and BeryL. I am taking NS to go 2-0 here and probably be a cash staple as your small stacks or at least a team spot on the night.

DWG vs KT

This is our second LCK match of the night and another that is leaning closer to the category of complete stomp over anything else. DWG is coming back with a new roster though, replacing 3 spots including Top, ADC, and Support. Now having to stick Hoya, Deokdam, and Kellin there to replace Khan, Ghost, and BeryL. KT on the other hand has also made a lot of changes, the new-look roster is going to be Rascal, Cuzz, Aria, Aiming, and Life. This is a definite improvement over last year’s roster as they should already have definite improvements in the top lane, jungle, and bot lane as a whole. Now do these changes amount to anything near the power of a Showmaker/Canyon Mid/Jg duo? hell no but it’s still pretty solid overall. If looking more into individual matchups here it is still going to have to go over to DWG everywhere except for the top lane where I cannot give it to Hoya. I like DWG to win here but a 2-1 victory and for it to be a slower game overall, both LCK matches are good for cash and don’t have too much upside, I like both games for 3 stacks to fill out those LPL lineups.

TT vs IG

This is the match I am looking forward to the most tonight for DFS purposes. It projects to be the bloodiest out of all the games going on tonight and is where I am looking to get pieces from above any other match. IG is set to be one of the bloodiest squads we have with their aggression and I am excited for their new Mid/Jg duo in Yuekai and XUN. That is going to be one of the most powerful 1-2 punches in the LPL this split, especially with how the meta is looking right now. TT is a team we saw get rolled night one and is a team we will see get rolled nightly as the split goes on as they just don’t have the talent or team chemistry or IQ to put up a fight against anyone but the worst teams in the league. I am taking IG here to complete a smash spot and where I am targeting for my 4 stacks on the day. IG wins 2-0 here and I am playing them and their cheap asses everywhere.

WB(SN)/WE

This is going to be the closest match on the slate and it is between two of the most affordable teams you can play today with both giving great value for anyone you decide to play from their rosters. I believe this is going to be the deciding match on the slate for your GPP looks tonight and where I am going to have to recommend my first hedge of the year as I am constantly going back and forth between these two teams. I really like SN’s roster here as they didn’t have much turnover, only replacing Bin with TheShy. WE on the other hand has a lot of changes in their roster, only keeping the mid lane the same as last year in Shanks who is one of the better players in the LPL in his roams and will be a key component if they pull off the win. SN has the more experienced roster that I am more confident in but WE had much better stats throughout the Demacia cup. SN has blue side here though which gives them a draft advantage. This is going to be a 2-1 game and I believe it goes the way of WB(SN) but it will be extremely close and I am only going here in GPP looks.
