7/27 LPL League of Legends Breakdown
Welcome to my 7/27 LPL League of Legends Breakdown where I am excited to say we are going to have a three-game LPL slate tonight due to the typhoon recently ripping through Shanghai. That has given us the TES/IG match tonight which is going to be our main target on the slate to play. Our other two matches are going to be LNG/RW and SN/V5. I believe we are going to have an edge on others tonight with this SN/V5 game as I do not see it having a lot of kills as V5 simply doesn’t die in losses. Let’s dig into these matches and hopefully help you guys hit the green.
TES vs IG
This is going to be our first match of the night and the one I am most excited to be stacking tonight. This has the highest kill upside of any match on the day. With the other two matches that are on the slate, I am going to make tonight pretty simple for most people, please 4 stack TES I am going to find a way to do so myself and I believe they are the path to the optimal as they have the highest chance to score on today’s slate. I also believe they are the 2nd safest option for the day.
These teams like to die a lot so that is why I am looking to target this matchup tonight. I am really going to expect this to be in the optimal tonight, most of my lineups are going to have exposure to this game in some way shape, or form, TES is just going to take their overall game prowess in and take down IG tonight, I am calling for a TES 2-0.
Suning vs V5
This is one I can imagine being chalky for the side of Suning, but I just cannot see it personally as V5 does not die in losses. They are one of the worst teams in the league but they just don’t output the points in losses. Suning is also one of the slower playing teams in the LPL which I believe will also contribute to this being the lowest scoring match of the night. To touch more on this match there isn’t much to say, I believe it is going to be a quick 2-0 for SN, and the only spots I would take here would be SN team spot.
The numbers that show my underlying feeling here for the match is the CKPM (Combined Kills per minute). Both teams have numbers below 0.8 and that is just something else that would attribute to this match being low scoring. In every possible way tonight I would not recommend playing V5, not even as a hedge, they don’t have a chance to win and the kills will be very low if they do. SN is going to win this game and it will be quick, SN 2-0
LNG vs RW
This is the only close match on the night and the only one I would suggest taking both sides for this one if you are looking to hedge tonight. I though am going to be looking at RW to actually take the win here. This is going to give us the value we need to 4 stack TES, this is also going to be my second favorite game on the day for upside and I also like LNG here as they have returned to their original linuep. I am personally going to be rolling with RW here as a way to get TES to fit.
I want to emphasize that I am really looking to hedge this game here overall but that in my main lineup I am shooting for the upset with RW who has been playing much better recently, and I believe they can win this through their jungler in Xiaholo. LNG has been falling apart since the start of the split and I believe their broken down team chemistry is what’s going to be their downfall in this matchup. While RW’s chemistry is finally clicking for them as a squad. I am taking RW to win this 2-1 and mainly as my small stacks tonight.
Summary
I really like TES tonight as my top stack and will die on their hill for the day. I do not like Suning tonight as a stack as I just don’t think they have the upside to play tonight. This last match is going to be the money maker and if you get it right you cash. My lean is going to be RW favored but it can really go either way. RW for the win BABY.
