League of Legends: Naldo’s Legendary LOL LEC Picks 7/4
Today we will be looking into a healthy five-game slate of the LOL LEC 2020 Summer Split on 7/4/2020 @ 11:00 am 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 LEC Teams to Target
MAD Lions (MAD)(-225) vs Misfits Gaming(MG) (+160).
MAD Lions will soon feature a banner atop my articles and you guys will love it. Any guess as to the over/under of how many times they will be featured as the main stack to lock in your cash/gpp games? Anyways we find ourselves with yet another MAD Lions pick against Misfits gaming who is in my opinion a bottom-tier team. I will look to stack them as much as my secondary stack allows me to and move on.
MAD Lions Starting Lineup: (TOP) Orome (JNG) Shadow (MID) Humanoid (ADC) Carzzy (SUP) Kaiser
Team Misfits Starting Lineup:(TOP) Dan Dan (JNG) Razork (MID) Febiven (ADC) Kobbe (SUP) Doss
LOL LEC Favorite Captains:
- (TOP) Orome (Cheap option)
- (JNG) Shadow (Top gpp option)
- (MID) Humanoid (Top optimal option)
- (ADC) Carzzy (Top gpp option)
LOL LEC Pick to win: MAD Lions
G2 Esports (G2)(-345) vs eXcel Sports (XL) (+235).
G2 had one of their best games against Misfits and with the help of Caps destroying them from start to finish. I am expecting Caps to hard carry this team once more against XL who are everything but impressive. Expect G2 to cruise, whether Perkz starts or not I am expecting G2 to slowly get back to form and keep this momentum going throughout the rest of the season. If we can get a game similar in production as the Misfits game G2 should be in most lineups.
G2 Esports Starting Lineup: (TOP) Wunder (JNG) Jankos (MID) Caps (ADC) P1noy (SUP) Mikyx
excel Sports Starting Lineup: (TOP) Kryze (JNG) Caedrel (MID) Special (ADC) Patrikk (SUP) Tore
LOL LEC Favorite Captains:
- (TOP) Wunder (Top cheap option)
- (JNG) Jankos (Top Gpp option)
- (MID) Caps (Top optimal option)
- (ADC) P1noy (Top Gpp option)
- (SUP) Mikyx (Top optimal option)
LOL LEC Pick to win: G2 Esports
Fnatics (FNC)(-800) vs Schalke 04 (SC4) (+425).
We all saw what MAD Lions did to Schalke last game. They led them on by letting them pick whatever champion they liked, overpowered or not. And then destroyed them to finish up the game after many thought they were keeping it close. FNC are thirsty for wins so I doubt they will be this gentle to start the game. I have a feeling FNC will attack the early game and attempt to get a lead and feast on Schalke all game. We can expect to see this game ending around the 29-32 minute mark. While I do not think the game will provide a lot of upsides, I do believe that it will provide a solid cash floor.
Rogue Starting Lineup: (TOP) Finn (JNG) Inspired (MID) Larssen (ADC) Hans Sama (SUP) Vander
Schalke 04 Starting Lineup: (TOP) Odoamme (JNG) Gilius (MID) Abbedagge (ADC) Neon (SUP) Dreams
LOL LEC Favorite Captains:
- (JNG) Inspired (Top cheap option)
- (MID) Larssenm (Top optimal option)
- (ADC) Hans Sama (Top optimal option)
LOL LEC Pick to win: Rogue
LEC teams to consider in large-field tournaments:
- Origen (Probably my favorite stack for gpp. Should have relatively low ownership on a bounce-back smash spot)
- Rogue (Very solid team facing off against another middle of the pack team that could provide a decent matchup)
- SK Gaming (High risk, high reward| Going up against Rogue which is why I listed them as the third option if you want to take an underdog)
Notes: This is a very similar slate to yesterday, and I am actually favoring most favorites here as you can see. All matchups set up well for most and should be a pretty straight forward slate.
You can always find me in the Win Daily Sports discord or on twitter @champagneravens and ask me any question about the LOL slate, and I will 100% be there to help out. Thanks for reading Naldo’s LEC 7/4/20 targets.
