On the 4/12 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: Top Esports (TES) (-2500)
My favorite stack and team tonight is by far Top Esports (TES) (-2500). Not only is TES an upper-tier team, but they are also matched up against Victory Five (V5) (+850). V5 is an AWFUL team; in my opinion, they should not even be in a professional LOL league. When V5 plays, they look like a farm team compared to the next best team in the LPL. They have won ONE game of ONE series all season long. Victory Five has ZERO wins. When they play any team, they get embarrassed every time. Now, V5 has an excellent opportunity to be Top Esports punching bag. TES is going to rip them apart, run through them, and have their way with them. I think TES is the highest fantasy producer on tonight’s three-game ESPORTS DFS slate. I will gladly fit as many positions as I possibly can from TES in my ESPORTS DFS lineups. TES should be the top fantasy producers at all positions tonight.
#2 TARGET: eStar (ES) (-225):
This is my second favorite stack of the night. ES (-225) is the favorite in this matchup against OMG (+160). Last game ES bounced back in a big way, producing monster fantasy numbers and showing us that eStar is back. They took a few tough losses to VG, RNG, and JDG. Those losses were driven by mistakes made in the BOT (MID) lane. Their previous matchup versus RW was the team that we all know and love. If ES comes out and plays their normal game, they are easily a top contending team in the LPL. OMG is a very slow-paced, strategic, mediocre team that I don’t think stand a chance against the likes of Cryin (MID), Wink (ADC), and WEI (JNG) of eStar. The three superstars should be able to run through the Middle (BOT) lane with ease. I believe eStar sweeps the floor with OMG and, at the very least, takes them out by game three.
#3 TARGET: LNG Esports (LNG) (+310):
This matchup is where it gets a little tricky for me. At first glance, you would assume that Royal Never Give Up (RNG) (-500) will have a clean win over a bottom end team of LNG Esports (LNG) (+310). After looking deeper into this game, I can honestly see a potential upset here. RNG tends to play up or down to their opponents. Four of their losses this year have come against some pretty bad teams (RW, LGD, VG, and BLG). On the other side, LNG has beaten three out of the four teams that I just mentioned, and the fourth team (VG) they took to a third game in a loss. This is a spot that I will have exposure to both sides. I am leaning LNG to win, though. This matchup will be a good battle to watch and believe you will NEED the winner of this matchup as a stack in your lineup.
HONORABLE MENTION STACKS:
Royal Never Give Up (RNG) (-500).
Favorite Captains:
Knight (MID) and JackeyLove (ADC) from TES, Cryin (MID), and Wink (ADC) of ES, Maple (MID), and Light (ACD) from LNG, Xiaohu (MID), and Betty (ADC) from RNG. My Primary Captains out of the group will be JackeyLove (ADC), Cryin (MID, Maple (MID), and Betty (ADC).
SLATE SUMMARY:
On the 4/12 three-game ESPORTS DFS slate, I’m going to be playing six lineups. In my six lineups, I am going to stack TES heavily in five. I will have three stacks of ES, two stacks of RNG, and two stacks of LNG. I will use TES as a full-stack and filler for my one-off lineups at the TOP, SUP, or Team position. I am going to be focused on four-two-one and four-three stacks in my lineups. Good luck tonight, and don’t forget to come back and WIN DAILY.
