We are going to start by breaking down the two matchups of the new LPL split scheduled to go off at 5 am and 7 am Eastern standard time on Tuesday, June 12th. The DraftKings and FanDuel slates lock at 5 am SHARP. The slate is two best of three-game series LPL (Chinese League) matches.
The first match is Royal Never Give Up (RNG) (-500) Vs. LNG Esports (LNG) (+325). The second match is FunPlus Phoenix (FPX) (-550) Vs. Bilibili Gaming (BLG) (+335). I am going to break down each game the way I feel it will play out. I will post my betting picks and favorite team immediately following the breakdown.
At the later stage of my article, I will have a list of my favorite captain’s/stars in order of preference. This article is for both Draftkings and FanDuel.
MATCH ONE: LPL SUMMER SPLIT
Royal Never Give Up (RNG) (-500) Vs. LNG Esports (LNG) (+325).
After watching the previous performance of RNG, I concluded that even though they beat up OMG pretty well, they made plenty of mistakes. If RNG makes those mistakes against any other team, they will get exploited. I do feel that everyone thinks that RNG has an easy ride here versus previously one of the worse teams in the LPL. The keyword there is PREVIOUSLY. I believe that LNG is going to give them a run for their money.
Both Maple and Light looked amazing in LNG’s recent win, which was against a -4000 favorite in FunPlus Phoenix (FPX). FPX was one of the top teams in the previous split, and I believe they could still perform well if the mistakes they made don’t get exploited again like LNG did to them. I’m going to have exposure to both teams (60/40 split). My lean and yes, it sounds crazy, but it is on LNG to exploit the weaknesses of RNG in a very close bloody best of three series.
MY LOL DFS PICK: LNG ESPORTS (+325).
MATCH TWO: SUMMER SPLIT.
FunPlus Phoenix (FPX) (-550) Vs. Bilibili Gaming (BLG) (+335).
We all witness the astonishing defeat that FPX just took at the hands of LNG, but what if I told you I think it can happen again in back to back games? FPX did not play terribly. They actually played pretty well last game. Unfortunately for them, LNG had their number and perfectly exploited their weaknesses; to be honest entirely outperformed them.
DON’T FORGET that we are on a brand new season in the LPL, and EVERY TEAM has a fresh start. Even though FPX could definitely be a top team, they are facing off against a team (Bilibili Gaming) that is notorious for giving every team they play, everything they can handle, and continuously forcing almost every best of three series to the third and close game. I personally think that BLG continues to do that here and can potentially send another big upset over to FPX. I will have a 60/40 split in my LPL DFS lineups in favor of BLG.
FAVORITE CAPTAINS / STARS:
Maple (MID) (LNG)
Light (ADC) (LNG)
Fofo (MID) (BLG)
Betty (ADC) (RNG)
Wings (ADC) (BLG)
LWX (ADC) (FPX)
SLATE SUMMARY: LPL SUMMER SPLIT
I will be building ten ESPORTS DFS lineups. I will have 60% of my lineups with a three or four-man stack of LNG. My lineup builds will have a 60/40 split on my four or three-man stacks of both BLG (60%) and FPX (40%).
Tonight I will be using different combinations of player captains, focusing on the best overall build. ADC and MID are always my priorities. My lineups will have a share of 40% of three or four-man stacks of RNG (HEDGE PURPOSES ONLY). Let me say this again, I AM PLAYING GPP ONLY. I am taking a very big risk on two big underdogs but, just in case, i have 40% of both of the heavy favorites in my lineups.
