7/7 LPL/LCK League of Legends Breakdown
Welcome to my 7/7 LPL/LCK League of Legends Breakdown. Tonight we are going to have a four-game slate with two coming from the LPL and two from the LCK. Last night we were able to hit cash with our 4 stacks of EDG and I am looking to carry on into tonight. Our LCK matches tonight are going to be NS/AF and DWG/LSB. My initial first picks here are going to be NS and DWG while for the LPL our two matches are going to be FPX/BLG and RNG/LGD. Let us dig into our slate for tonight.
NS vs AF
Our first match that we are touching on for the night in the LCK and one that I am going to be looking towards for value tonight. This is a match between the ideas of a record and the strength of schedule of the other. NS has been able to take down some of the giants such as DWG and T1 while also being able to take a game away from Gen G. AF on the other hand holds one of the best records in the LCK while mainly picking off some of the worst teams in the LCK. They were able to pick up a win over T1 but in a close 2-1 matchup while taking losses against the upper tier of teams in the LCK.
NS is finally reaching to be one of the upper-tier teams in the LCK being able to play through their JG in Peanut along with their bot lane, mainly Deokdam, to be able to carry them. I do believe this is going to be a very close match but ultimately a 2-1 win for NS. I like this match for the value you can pick up but I would not take any more than a three-stack in this matchup.
DWG vs LSB
This is the matchup where I believe we are going to have our surprising upside as in certain circumstances both of these teams are able to put up massive kill numbers. If you are looking to play a huge GPP upset play I would look to go with LSB as a four stack tonight. I do not believe they are going to be able to pull it off tonight, it will be another close matchup as I also believe DWG is going to be breaking in a new ADC in Rehal. Prince does have the ability to take down this new bot lane for DWG and put them far ahead in the matchup, do not look to play Ghost tonight as he won’t play. Same as Malrang. I am taking DWG to win here 2-1 and if you want your deep GPP shot go with LSB.
FPX vs BLG
I believe this is going to be one of our main matches to take our four stacks from and somewhere I am focusing on for tonight. I really like the side of BLG here as they have consistently competed with some of the best competition in the LPL. FPX is still an incredibly solid team that is strong. The mid-lane matchup is going to be key here tonight as it will be Zeka matched up with DoinB. Elsewhere on the map, I believe both of these teams are very even with a slight overall advantage going over to the side of BLG tonight.
Both of these teams are also very bloody and I am looking for that to continue into tonight. If playing multiple lines I would look to hedge here and end up taking both sides but for my own GPP shot I am going to be taking BLG here but probably as a three-stack tonight. BiuBiu/Aiming/BLG team are my favorite plays from BLG. FPX’s top overall play is going to be DoinB as he is outscoring the rest of the roster considerably. I am also not against a 1 off here tonight for him. I am taking BLG to win 2-1 in a bloody close match that can go either way.
RNG vs LGD
Our last match of the night and my favorite to touch on. I believe this has the potential to be the slate breaker but this is going to end up being a bit of a toss-up match. RNG has looked nowhere near their spring split form this split but they have had some of the best competition in the LPL taking on the likes of FPX/TES/SN. LGD on the other hand, have been a big surprise this split and I expect them to put up a fight tonight against their opposition in RNG. They have done this through their new addition of Shadow and Xiye, along with Fearness in the top lane. Both of these teams are quite talented and have a shot to run away with a slate breaker match here.
I am going out on a limb here and probably against ownership to be able to take RNG winning here in a clean 2-0 tonight. They will be the highest scoring stack in a 2-0 as LGD like to fight when down and even when up in the matchup. If you are into playing GPP and want a more popular upset then go with LGD to take over this matchup and give good value on their side. But I am looking forward to RNG righting the ship here and take over.
Summary
Thank you for reading my 7/7 LPL/LCK League of Legends Breakdown. My picks for tonight are NS 2-1, DWG 2-1, BLG 2-1, RNG 2-0. I am not really looking to play cash tonight but GPP is where it is at with both LPL matches being able to go either way.
