On the 4/5 Esports DFS Slate I am going to focus on my favorite LOL stacks for DraftKings only. This is now the LEC and LCS playoffs. Instead of these games being a best of one, they are now a best of five series. In each DFS lineup, you create, you are going to have to get different. If you chose to go the traditional stack, you would likely be tied with a hundred different players. Coming into this, I am still going to focus on fitting in an ADC or a MID in my captain spot. It is also ok to completely stack one of these games, just to have a unique lineup. I am targeting GPP’s ONLY.
Cloud9 (C9) vs. 100 Thieves (LCS):
This game is my favorite of the two LOL games. Cloud9 (C9) is coming into this game as the favorite. In my opinion, they are not favored enough. 100 Thieves do not stand a chance versus the aggressive nature of C9. This game could easily be over right from the start. C9 is the overall better team, whether it be producing kills, capturing dragons, or even just scaling the map. This is where my favorite stack of this two-game ESPORTS DFS slate lies. I have no problem getting to every team member of C9. I will be using up to four players from Cloud9 in every ESPORTS DFS lineup I create.
Rouge vs. Misfits Gaming (LCS):
This is game number two of the ESPORTS DFS slate. These two teams are a little closer than the previous two. My primary focus is this matchup is going to be the underdog (Rouge). I love the idea of being able to fit a stack of C9 and Rouge (RGE) into one DFS lineup, that is not going to be difficult. This game is going to be a little less fantasy-friendly. Both of these teams like to play the wait and strike approach, waiting until the last possible second to make their move. The more aggressive side is Rouge. I will be focusing on trying to mix and match the pieces of this game as filler to my ESPORTS DFS lineup that is crammed with Cloud 9 players. I will most likely have little to no exposure to Misfits Gaming (MSF). I do not believe that they make it past game four. MSF is an average team on a losing streak, and I believe that streak continues here.
In most of my builds, I will have players from Cloud 9 and Rouge. I have no problem at all with a lineup that has a full game one stack (Cloud 9 and 100 Thieves) in order to get different. All of my lineups will have either an ADC or a MID player in my captain spot. My favorite captains of this two-game LOL DFS slate are Nisqy and Zven; both are on Cloud9.
SLATE SUMMARY:
On the 4/5 ESPORTS DFS two-game slate, I will be going heavy on C9 and RGE. I am going to be focused on different player combinations with four-three stacks in my four lineups. Good luck tonight, and don’t forget to come back and WIN DAILY.
