On the 4/18 Esports DFS Slate, I am going to focus on my favorite LOL stacks for DraftKings and Fanduel. My LOL targets can be used in both cash games and GPP’s. When playing LOL, I recommend playing Tournaments.
#1 TARGET: FunPlus Phoenix (FPX) (-800).
My favorite stack and team tonight is FunPlus Pheonix (FPX) (-800). FPX is facing off against Rogue Warriors (RW) (+425). RW is currently in the middle of the LPL standings. FPX is a top contending team that has very few weaknesses. I don’t believe RW stands a chance here. FPX is going to wipe the map with them. Doinb and LWX are two of the best MID/ADC combos in the league. The Duo is involved in over 70% of the total kills produced by FPX. RW is coming off of a loss to JD Gaming (JDG), and I don’t see them getting back on track just yet. Look for FPX to ride off into the sunset as victors of this matchup.
#2 TARGET: Suning (SN) (-200):
This is my second favorite stack of the night. Suning (SN) (+200) is one of those teams that you hate to love. This season they have been far from impressive but have also surprised me quite a bit. They are a team that always puts up a fight and produces great fantasy numbers, similar to WE and BLG. At first glance of this matchup, I immediately predicted SN to get beat by Royal Never Give Up (RNG) (-280). After looking more into this matchup, my mind was swung the opposite direction. This season RNG has some big wins under their belt, but for some reason, they have had trouble against teams with a losing record, either being brought to a game three or losing the series entirely. My prediction is that SN wins this series that goes the distance. They should be able to produce high fantasy numbers, and I will be going SN heavy in my lineups. Big risk equals a big reward.
#3 TARGET: Vici Gaming (VG) (-1800):
Vici Gaming (VG) (-1800) is the most obvious stack of the night. Any team that faces Victory Five (V5) (+700) absolutely destroys them. V5 has zero wins on the season and zero talented players on their team as well. This target is short and sweet. Play VG, and do not think twice about it. V5 is TERRIBLE!
HONORABLE MENTION STACKS:
DAMWON Gaming (DWG) (+110)
Favorite Captains:
Huanfeng (ADC)
LWX (ADC)
DoinB (MID)
iBoy (ADC)
SLATE SUMMARY:
On the 4/18 four-game ESPORTS DFS slate, I am building ten lineup, and I am going to have a majority of SN due to the need for salary relief when playing FPX and VG stacks. I will have bits and pieces of DWG, and I will have one lineup with an RNG stack to hedge with all of my SN lineups. In any lineup that I do not have SN, I will have FPX or VG. Good luck tonight, and don’t forget to come back and WIN DAILY.
