7/30 LPL/LCK League of Legends Breakdown
Welcome to my 7/30 LPL/LCK League of Legends Breakdown where I am looking to break down tonight’s slate and deliver on the best possible plays for the day. Tonight we have a 20k to first contest on DK which I am excited to try to get a part of the bigger pot tonight. Tonight’s four-game slate includes GEN/KT, NS/LSB, EDG/V5, and WE/RW. I am excited to get into this slate tonight so let’s break it down.
NS vs LSB
This is going to be one of the matches I will be looking to keep in my pool as I build tonight. This has an opportunity to be a slate breaker tonight as these are two of the higher-paced teams in the LCK. NS is in a smash spot here and is going to be one of my top favorite overall plays today. I really like NS today and they are going to have to be one of my top safety teams tonight who I like for upside as well, I am going to be nailing them in my cash games tonight.
I expect NS to be in a smash spot here and that will make them one of the best plays of the day. They are affordable all around and I will be looking to get some stacks of them in any way I can tonight. NS is going to be able to take this match in a 2-0 fashion while also holding the kill upside we are looking for. NS 2-0, big and small stacks everywhere for me. If MME’ing I may have one LSB lineup
GEN vs KT
This is going to be our second LCK match of the night and another one of my favorites to play for. I like both of our LCK matches tonight but this is the one I can see delivering on the most value as I believe KT has a chance here to pick up a win, especially after GEN took the loss against AF in the last matchup and has been generally disappointing as of late. KT on the other hand made the switch to a new ADC in 5kid and took a 2-0 win over HLE.
Gen has been on the opposite end of the spectrum recently compared to KT taking back-to-back losses. I will say though all of these matches end up being close as GEN likes to have three-game series. I don’t think this series has the upside of the others on the slate but it has a chance to deliver on the value that we are going to need for the day. I am going to take GEN to win here 2-1 but I am not against taking KT and I will actually encourage taking them tonight.
EDG vs V5
I am not even going to deliver more than a few sentences on this match for tonight. EDG will win, EDG will score low. V5 is going to lose, do not play V5. If V5 somehow wins this match would still not have a chance to be anywhere near the optimal tonight. EDG will win here 2-0 but I have 0 interest here tonight.
WE vs RW
This is going to be one of my favorite spots for tonight to stack up on WE here. They are another team in a prime smash spot and it is looking like the best way to play tonight is going to be a WE/NS stack. This is another match I can’t see this being an upset for RW as they are nowhere near at the level of WE and haven’t been playing at their level. WE are going to smash here tonight and I want to make sure I have a lot of them here.
The CKPM’s of these teams are near the top of the LPL as they like to fight as much as possible in whatever situation. They take coin flip fights and are not against taking something that may look like a losing situation for either team. My favorite play on the night is going to mixed 4-3’s of NS and WE. I am taking WE to win 2-0 here.
Summary
I absolutely love this slate tonight where I am looking to stack WE with NS any way I can tonight. I like GEN but I would only take KT for the upset tonight. I am not touching EDG but they will win in a quick 2-0. For our other articles here at Windaily click here and to join our discord click here. Good luck tonight everyone!!!
