League of Legends: Naldo’s 6/14 LOL LCS Breakdown

Today we will be looking into the LOL LCS 2020 Summer Split on 6/14/2020 @ 4:00 pm EST. Below I will provide my top targets for the day, correlation plays, as well as projected lineups to make your building of a line a lot easier. Any questions about the article or tips feel free to hit me up on discord. 

LOL LCS Teams to Target

Cloud 9 (C9) (-500) (All Formats- Cash/GPP): 

Cloud 9 is and should be part of your lineups no doubt about it. Not only do they do the talk, but they walk the walk. They are the top team of the LCS no doubt about it and are going up against 100Thieves which are average at best. There is no competition here whatsoever.

I am expecting Cloud 9 to engage early and finish this within the 27 minutes mark. This is a team that you can fully stack confidently in your cash given their high ownership tomorrow in all cash lineups. Lock them in, and continue to look for a stack to pair. LCS is a roller coaster for sure, if you are feeling crazy then have a 100T lineup as a hedge. I don’t see a chance of them winning, but then again I did not see G2 Esports losing the last game and they did.

LOL LCS Starting Lineup: (TOP) Licorice (JNG) Blaber (MID) Nisqy (ADC) Zven (SUP) Vulcan

 LOL LCS Favorite Captains:

•  (TOP) Licorice ($6,600) (Cheap option)
• (JNG) Blaber ($7,600) (Optimal option)
• (MID) Nisqy ($8000) (Optimal option)
• (ADC) Zven ($8,400) (Optimal option)
• (SUP) Vulcan ($5,800) (Cheap option)

LOL LCS Pick to win: Cloud9.

Team Liquid (TL) (-260) (GPP/CASH):

Team Liquid is good, and they proved it by defeating TSM in a very confident fashion.  TSM looked washed up and I am curious to see how they end up in this split. I like Team Liquid here in what could be a game closer than we think. Golden Guardians beat Team Dignitas last time out looking very solid. The difference is that Dignitas actually kept the game close. Which made me believe TL can keep the game a bit cleaner while controlling the game.

I will side with Team Liquid but be sure to have both sides of this game. Even if it is a smaller exposure to Golden Guardians. These two teams should be involved in one of the juiciest matchups of the day.

LOL LCS Starting Lineup: (TOP) Impact (JNG) Broxah (MID) Jensen (ADC) Tactical  (SUP) CoreJj

 LOL LCS Favorite Captains:

• (JNG) Broxah ($7,000) (Optimal option)
• (MID) Jensen ($7,400) (Optimal option)
• (ADC) Tactical ($7,400) (Top Optimal option)

 LOL LCS Pick to win: Team Liquid.

Notes: Very even matchup, liking Team Liquid here but will have some exposure to Golden Guardians for sure.

Team Dignitas (DIG) (+180) (GPP):

Gut call here. I believe Team Dignitas is pretty good and eventually, it will show. They had a very tough matchup against Golden Guardians who looked in top form on their first game. Dignitas was able to stay close all game, though some mistakes allowed for GG to snowball their power eventually making it hard for them to get anything going in the late game. On the other side, TSM looked horrible, and I personally think the line should be much closer than this. TL made what everyone thought would be a good team look like a bottom feeder in LoL.

Maybe it was a really bad start by TSM, but maybe they are just not functional at the moment and will take them some time to adjust. I am taking a shot at the underdog here, hoping it pays off.

LOL LCS Starting Lineup: (TOP) V1Per (JNG) Akaadian (MID) Froggen (ADC) Johnsun  (SUP) Aphromoo

 LOL LCS Favorite Captains:

• (MID) Froggen ($6,600) (Top Optimal option)
• (ADC) Johnsun ($6,600) (Top Optimal option)

 LOL LCS Pick to win: Dignitas

LOL LCS teams to consider in large-field tournaments: 

1. Immortals
2. Golden Guardians
