DFS Strategy

League of Legends LoL DFS

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 4.22 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 13 lineups today!

Make sure to follow this twitter account and turn on notifications for starting lineups. Click here for the Twitter account.

League of Legends LPL/LCK PLAYOFFS! I’ll also add some notes on the EU Masters for tomorrow!

League of Legends Side Note – ADC/MID at Captain are usually the big winners. Focus on J A M , which is ADC, JNG, or MID at Captain. Don’t put SUP or TOP in your Captain spot. I can see the need to do SUP or TOP as Captain, but it isn’t ideal and doesn’t win the big money as often.

SIDE NOTE – It’s a 2 game slate AND it’s playoffs on this 4.21 DFS slate. Go any position at captain! I say to fade LCK teams at your captain spots. They usually don’t score a ton. Focus on the LPL guys at Captain

I’m focusing on all the teams for my main league of legends lines today. With all the upsets going on the past few days, it’s tough not to put some under owned or non favorites in your stacks. That being said, I’m doing 13 main lines all in a 350 person GPP. Hoping for a takedown and no more top 5 finishes! 1ST PLACE or BUST!!

ES vs. WE – Listen, I get it. WE is riding a little hot streak and sneaking into playoffs with the last spot with a deciding win over OMG. I get it. Upsets have been happening. Now, let’s be real. ES recently smoked WE 2-0 last week and WE lost 2 games ago to the pathetic LNG team that was tanking. They have 2 pretty impressive wins recently, but in a best of 5, I’ll ride my boy Cryin to the end. I will have Xaiobai, SchaiuC, Cryin, Wink, and WEI in at least one Captain spot and I’m using them in 8 of 13 lineups. I’ll have about 2-3 WE lineups to hedge a bit, but I’m not digging the WE side as much. We discussed in discord about one offs for WE, but I’ll pass. Jiumeng is only captain I’ll have from WE.

T1 vs. DRX – This is an interesting matchup to us all as T1 goes into the playoffs reeling while DRX comes in as one of the hottest teams in the LCK. T1 on FD is so affordable and can easily be stacked with ES, but T1 on DK is another story. You can only use with EStar if you go Xaiobai or SchiauC at Captain. DRX fits easily on DK, but not on FD. This match could go either way, but I side with T1’s experience. I’ll have only Canna, Teddy, and MAYBE Effort in my T1 stacks with one Cuzz line as well, but only using Teddy at Captain from T1. For DRX, I’m using all of the players in one lineup except for KESSIN. I’ll use Deft in a Captain spot as well.

EU Masters – 4.21 DFS

I’m not going to focus on game by game, but my focus is the 2 HEAVY favorites. I’m going to force myself to have a 4 man stack of FNC and a 4 man stack of MOUZ. The spread tells me they are going to blow the opponents out of the water. Will they hit value if they win too fast?

Good question. It’s best of 1 tomorrow so it doesn’t really matter. I can see each of these teams getting the 10 K/A bonus and just doing work. Focus on those 2 teams! I do need to punt at team spot, but I’ll try for Moviestar Riders, Defusekids, and LDLC. I’ll have 2 man stacks with Defusekids and LDLC in hopes of an upset! The spread it close enough. It could happen!

I’m only doing 3 lineups and ALL 3 will have FNC OR MOUZ.

If you’re betting tonight on the matches for 4.21 DFS, I say go ML bet on ES and T1.

With League of Legends and ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or more, be different and take a shot to win the $50k (if I don’t)

On the 4/19 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.

Fnatic (FNC) (-110) vs. G2 Esports (G2) (-125) (LEC):

Here it is! The moment we have all been waiting for the LEC LOL Championship finals. We have the best possible matchup that we could have asked for. This finals match between G2 Esports (G2) and Fnatic (FNC) is a battle between two kill-happy powerhouse teams. FNC has been patiently waiting in the finals for their opponent, and they now know who it is. G2 absolutely embarrassed MAD Lions (MAD) in a best of five series that ended in game four. G2 came out firing on all angles and dominated in every aspect of the matchup. FNC also had its way with MAD on their route to the championship. The difference between the FNC victory and the G2 victory over MAD was that FNC showed no weakness and made no mistakes. G2, on the other hand, made quite a few mistakes in their series. I feel like FNC is going to be too much for G2 to handle. They have a near-flawless game strategy that has been repeated and is very successful. FNC will capitalize on the aggressive nature of G2 and use their own momentum against them. This is going to be a very high scoring fantasy series from both sides, but I believe that FNC wins this series that goes the distance, and with it, the championship for this LEC split. I will be using up to four players from either G2 or FNC in almost every lineup I create.

MY PICK: Fnatic (FNC).

Cloud9 (C9) (ODDS N/A) vs. Flyquest (FLY) (ODDS/NA)(LCS):

In the second championship game is more of a David versus Goliath battle. Cloud9 (C9) vs. Flyquest (FLY). C9 is by far the best team in the LCS, with every player of their team at the top of the leaderboards in their respective positions. FLY is a mediocre team that no one thought would ever make it this far. FLY has fought tooth and nail to get to this point. Unfortunately for FLY, I believe that the road stops here, they ran into a dead-end road with no streetlights, and everything is dark with minimal visibility for them. C9 is going to prove why they are the number one team in the league. I think that they are going to obliterate FLY. FLY has no chance in this matchup. If they somehow squeeze out one win in the best of five series, I will be shocked. My prediction is that C9 sweeps FLY in three games.

MY PICK: Cloud9 (C9).

FAVORITE CAPTAINS:

My favorite captains of this two-game Championship LOL DFS slate are Nisqy and Zven from C9, Perkz, and Caps from G2, Nemesis, and Rekkles from FNC. If I end up playing a last-minute FLY stack, I will prioritize WildTurtle as my one and only captain from FLY.

SLATE SUMMARY:

I will be building seven ESPORTS DFS lineups. In all of my builds, I will have players from G2 Esports, Fnatic, or Cloud9. I will be building six lineups focused on FNC, G2, and C9. It will be challenging to fit in a full four-three stack of these teams. I have no problem with any position at captain. I will be building an entire game stack of FNC and G2 as well.

On the 4/19 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: Invictus Gaming (IG) (-1600)

My favorite stack and team tonight is Invictus Gaming (IG), who are monster favorites in this game (-1600). IG is the team that you want in all of your cash lineups. They will be highly owned, but with good reason. IG is going to walk all over LNG Esports (LNG). LNG is a bottom barrel team that not only gets destroyed by almost everyone that they face, but they also let up A TON of fantasy points per game. IG should sweep LNG with ease, and every player on the IG roster should produce over 90 fantasy points. I believe they will be a must-have in a winning cash or GPP lineup tonight.

#2 TARGET: JD Gaming (JDG) (SN) (-575):

This is my second favorite stack of the night. JDG is on an absolute tear as of late. They have been blowing through everyone in their path. Not a single team in the LPL stands a chance against JDG, in my opinion. Even though their record has a few losses on it, they have the ability to beat every team in the LPL. They have already bested some of the top tier teams this season (IG and ES). LGD Gaming (LGD) is another team similar to LNG that they lose, and their opponents almost always produce excellent fantasy numbers. LGD and LNG are two of my favorite teams to pick on when building my ESPORTS DFS lineups. I am going to be heavily invested in JDG.

#3 TARGET: Team WE (WE) (+230):

Here is the matchup that gets a little tricky. Edward Gaming (EDG) is a middle of the pack team that has lost some games to lower-tier teams. WE is a team that is consistently overlooked. WE can come out and produce massive numbers. If WE beats EDG, it is going to be in a series that goes the distance. They have the talent to be able to pull this win out. I will have WE in about half of my lineups that I build, whether it be a one-off, two-man, three-man, or four-man stack.

HONORABLE MENTION STACKS:

Edward Gaming (EDG) (-335).

Favorite Captains:

Puff (IG)(ADC)
Rookie (IG) (MID)
Loken (JDG) ADC)
Yagao (JDG) (MID)
Jiumeng (WE) (ADC)
Teacherma (WE) (MID)
Hope (EDG) (ADC)
Scout (EDG) (MID)

Priority Captains:

Puff (IG)(ADC)
Rookie (IG) (MID)
Jiumeng (WE) (ADC)
Teacherma (WE) (MID)
Scout (EDG) (MID)

SLATE SUMMARY:

On the 4/18 three-game ESPORTS DFS slate, I am building ten lineups, and I am going to focus on putting ADC or MID as my captain. I will be using as many players from IG and JDG as possible in every lineup. I will do a 60/40 split between Team WE and Edward Gaming. Good luck tonight, and don’t forget to come back and WIN DAILY.

On the 4/18 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.

G2 Esports (G2) (-650) vs. MAD Lions (MAD) (+390) (LEC):

This game is my favorite of the two LOL games. This is a playoff rematch. The previous serious was a kill friendly, bloody, high fantasy scoring battle that left you in suspense until the very last kill in the last possible game of the series (game five). I expect an almost identical series, except this time im siding with G2 for the win. I am going to be targeting both sides of this bloody battle but will have slightly more exposure to G2. G2 is going to come out with a vengeance and prove that they should be number one in the LEC, i do not believe that they will make the mistakes they made in the first series against MAD. This is going to be a great series to watch. Both teams have everything to play for and are going to lay it all out on the map. This matchup is where a lot of my exposure will be coming from. Though I do believe G2 wins, the MAD Lions with not go down easy or without a fight. I will be using up to four players from either G2 or MAD in almost every lineup I create.

MY PICK: G2 Esports (G2).

Evil Geniuses (EG) (-250) vs. Flyquest (FLY) (+390) (LCS):

This is game number two of the ESPORTS DFS slate and another playoff rematch. My primary focus is this matchup is going to be the Evil Geniuses (EG). Last time that these two teams met, it was a lopsided affair. EG dismantled FLY in four games. In my opinion, it should not have made it past the third game. EG is better all over. They capitalized on every mistake that Flyquest made, and they made quite a few significant mistakes. This is another series where I expect more of the same. EG should come out and have a repeat performance and win the series by the fourth game. In the previous five-game playoff series, four out of the five position players produced over one hundred fantasy points. EG will be the team that I look to stack along with my G2 and MAD stacks.

MY PICK: Evil Geniuses (EG).

FAVORITE CAPTAINS:

My favorite captains of this two-game LOL DFS slate are Humanoid and Carzzy from MAD Lions, Perkz, and Caps from G2.

SLATE SUMMARY:

I will be building seven ESPORTS DFS lineups. In all of my builds, I will have players from G2 Esports, MAD Lions and Evil Geniuses. I will have no exposure to Flyquest. I have no problem at all with a lineup that has a full game one stack (G2 and MAD) in order to get different. All of my lineups will have either an ADC or a MID player in my captain spot. If I can not fit the MID or ADC, I will use the SUP position or will mix in a third team to use at the SUP position and Team option (three-two-two or four-two-one stack).

On the 4/18 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: FunPlus Phoenix (FPX) (-800).

My favorite stack and team tonight is FunPlus Pheonix (FPX) (-800). FPX is facing off against Rogue Warriors (RW) (+425). RW is currently in the middle of the LPL standings. FPX is a top contending team that has very few weaknesses. I don’t believe RW stands a chance here. FPX is going to wipe the map with them. Doinb and LWX are two of the best MID/ADC combos in the league. The Duo is involved in over 70% of the total kills produced by FPX. RW is coming off of a loss to JD Gaming (JDG), and I don’t see them getting back on track just yet. Look for FPX to ride off into the sunset as victors of this matchup.

#2 TARGET: Suning (SN) (-200):

This is my second favorite stack of the night. Suning (SN) (+200) is one of those teams that you hate to love. This season they have been far from impressive but have also surprised me quite a bit. They are a team that always puts up a fight and produces great fantasy numbers, similar to WE and BLG. At first glance of this matchup, I immediately predicted SN to get beat by Royal Never Give Up (RNG) (-280). After looking more into this matchup, my mind was swung the opposite direction. This season RNG has some big wins under their belt, but for some reason, they have had trouble against teams with a losing record, either being brought to a game three or losing the series entirely. My prediction is that SN wins this series that goes the distance. They should be able to produce high fantasy numbers, and I will be going SN heavy in my lineups. Big risk equals a big reward.

#3 TARGET: Vici Gaming (VG) (-1800):

Vici Gaming (VG) (-1800) is the most obvious stack of the night. Any team that faces Victory Five (V5) (+700) absolutely destroys them. V5 has zero wins on the season and zero talented players on their team as well. This target is short and sweet. Play VG, and do not think twice about it. V5 is TERRIBLE!

HONORABLE MENTION STACKS:

DAMWON Gaming (DWG) (+110)

Favorite Captains:

Huanfeng (ADC)

LWX (ADC)

DoinB (MID)

iBoy (ADC)

SLATE SUMMARY:

On the 4/18 four-game ESPORTS DFS slate, I am building ten lineup, and I am going to have a majority of SN due to the need for salary relief when playing FPX and VG stacks. I will have bits and pieces of DWG, and I will have one lineup with an RNG stack to hedge with all of my SN lineups. In any lineup that I do not have SN, I will have FPX or VG. Good luck tonight, and don’t forget to come back and WIN DAILY.

League of Legends LoL DFS

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 4.16 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 13 lineups today!

Make sure to follow this twitter account and turn on notifications for starting lineups. Click here for the Twitter account.

League of Legends LPL ONLY TODAY.

League of Legends Side Note – ADC/MID at Captain are usually the big winners. Focus on J A M , which is ADC, JNG, or MID at Captain. Don’t put SUP or TOP in your Captain spot. I can see the need to do SUP or TOP as Captain, but it isn’t ideal and doesn’t win the big money as often.

SIDE NOTE – It’s a 5 game slate. Focus on MID and ADC Captain!

4.16 DFS League of Legends – Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds.

V5 – You. Know. Why.

LGD: I might do one, but I’m not high on the FPX vs LDG matchup

FPX: See above. Will have ONE lineup of FPX with BLG.

I’m focusing on a few teams for my main league of legends lines today. With all the upsets going on the past few days, it’s tough not to put some under owned or non favorites in your stacks. That being said, I’m doing 15 main lines all in a 500 person GPP. Hoping for a takedown and no more top 5 finishes! 1ST PLACE or BUST!!

BLG – Let me start out and let you know that this is far from the safest play, but they are my top stack of the night based off of price. Let’s look at BLG’s last 8 matches and then discuss their 14 match total. They only have 6 wins this season, but of their 9 losses, they have taken 7 of those to a third game. The only solution is they choke in a best of 3. More times than not, they hit value because they are priced so low. They’ve only been shut out twice and it was by RW and JDG. They’ve taken IG, FPX, ES , etc to third games and more times than not have lost, but they just lost to IG 2-1 recently and then 2-0ed TES before that. They also crushed LGD 2-0 even more recently.

I wrote the above in my last article. They face V5. V5 is bad. PLAY BLG

JDG – This team might be the best team in the LPL right now. Of course this is my opinion . They’ve won 4 straight including 2 straight 2-0 wins versus IG and ES. I’m liking what I’m seeing, but RW is no team to sleep on. They’ve won 3 of their last 4 and helped me with my first takedown recently. I will have a good chunk of JDG, but I’m definitely not fading RW.

HLE vs. GRF – The battle of two bad teams is here. Low upside and untrustworthy coaching on both sides, but the good news is they are priced pretty low and I think GRF can upset. I’ll have 2 lineups of each lineup and no more in case one team goes off. Avoid the MID position for HLE unless we get starters before lock and avoid the TOP position for GRF. Tough match to trust, but the salary is too good to pass.

APK vs. DRX – Don’t ask me why, but APK is fun to watch. Hybrid is a great player and the rest of the team is not great so that’s always fun. APK is an aggressive team who gets through with some great offense, but also allow a ton of kills to opposing teams. DRX is one of my favorite teams tonight as APK loves to feed kills so I’m all over DRX. Lock them in! I’ll have 2 APK also!

TES vs. ES – This is hands down the match of the night and of course it’s the last match of the night. I’m split down the middle on this match and so is Vegas. ES is priced as if their whole team has LeBron and AD. It’s tough to fit them in so I’m putting them with the likes of GRF, APK, and possibly with a sexier team, but it’s tough. As for TES, I have a few BLG-TES stacks and one with DRX so they fit OK!

Make sure to check out our LoL Projections by clicking here!

If you’re betting tonight on the matches for 4.16 DFS, I say go ML bet on GRF and -1.5 for BLG .

With League of Legends and ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or more, be different and take a shot to win the $50k (if I don’t)

League of Legends LoL DFS

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 4.14 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 15 lineups today!

Make sure to follow this twitter account and turn on notifications for starting lineups. Click here for the Twitter account.

League of Legends LPL ONLY TODAY.

League of Legends Side Note – ADC/MID at Captain are usually the big winners. Focus on J A M , which is ADC, JNG, or MID at Captain. Don’t put SUP or TOP in your Captain spot. I can see the need to do SUP or TOP as Captain, but it isn’t ideal and doesn’t win the big money as often.

SIDE NOTE – It’s a 3 game slate. TOP and SUP Captain is OK tonight, but still not the ideal build.

4.14 DFS League of Legends – Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds.

• SN – I’m all in on VG tonight and SN is just not that good. I’ll pass tonight. Might do ONE to hedge a little, but I prefer VG.
• LGD – I am NOT fully fading, but I’m limiting my exposure because they are priced too high and I prefer BLG at a massive discount. I’ll still have at at least 3 stacks with them.

I’m focusing on a few teams for my main league of legends lines today. With all the upsets going on the past few days, it’s tough not to put some under owned or non favorites in your stacks. That being said, I’m doing 15 main lines all in a 500 person GPP. Hoping for a takedown and no more top 5 finishes! 1ST PLACE or BUST!!

BLG – Let me start out and let you know that this is far from the safest play, but they are my top stack of the night based off of price. Let’s look at BLG’s last 7 matches and then discuss their 14 match total. They only have 5 wins this season, but of their 9 losses, they have taken 7 of those to a third game. The only solution is they choke in a best of 3. More times than not, they hit value because they are priced so low. They’ve only been shut out twice and it was by RW and JDG. They’ve taken IG, FPX, ES , etc to third games and more times than not have lost, but they just lost to IG 2-1 recently and then 2-0ed TES before that. I’m hoping they go underowned because I’m all over them with NINE lineups right now with them. LGD is solid and the favorite, but they are priced too high. FoFo and Jinjiao are the only ones I’m looking at for the Captain spot from BLG.

JDG – This team might be the best team in the LPL right now. Of course this is my opinion . They’ve won 4 straight including 2 straight 2-0 wins versus IG and ES. I’m liking what I’m seeing, but RW is no team to sleep on. They’ve won 3 of their last 4 and helped me with my first takedown recently. I will have a good chunk of JDG, but I’m definitely not fading RW.

VG – My second favorite stack behind BLG because of the fear of the unknown with the JDG-RW match. Suning is not a very good team and they’ve showed that recently. They are inconsistent and love to feed kills to their opponents once they are down. VG is a somewhat hot team right now and I love the combo of IBoy, Forge, and Cube are in plays for Captain tonight.

Make sure to check out our LoL Projections by clicking here!

If you’re betting tonight on the matches for 4.14 DFS, I say go ML bet on BLG and -1.5 on VG.

With League of Legends and ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or more, be different and take a shot to win the $50k (if I don’t)

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.

On the 4/12 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.

G2 Esports (G2)(-550) vs. Origen (OG) (+340):

This is another game similar to Cloud9 yesterday. G2 is coming in with a huge projected kills (PK) per game (18.5) and is a top-notch team on all angles of the map. Last week they took a heartbreaking loss against Mad Lions (MAD). They are the better team. G2 can play on multiple different levels; They can either destroy their opponents by sneaky strategic ganks or can be extremely aggressive and fight right through them. Origen is a good team but does not stand a chance in this matchup, and there is a big difference in projected kills (11.5). G2 is going to come out guns blazing and rip them apart up and down the map. The loss to MAD was caused by a few minor mistakes that were capitalized on perfectly by MAD. OG does not have the ability, in my opinion, to do what MAD did to G2. OG is not a very aggressive team. Their main focus is scaling, and if they try to do that versus G2, they are in for a long day. I expect G2 to dismantle OG piece by piece, and I think that G2 wins this series in a three-game sweep. I will have a lot of G2 in my ESPORTS DFS lineups.

MY PICK: G2 Esports (G2).

Team SoloMid (TSM) (-220) vs. Flyquest (+155) (FLY):

Matchup number two of the day is the matchup that I believe is where all the money will be made, and where I will be getting “different ” with my lineup build. FLY and TSM are very similar to each other in play style. Both of these teams can play the “wait and see” approach and attempt to capitalize on their opponent’s mistakes, or they can attempt to run right through each other. This matchup is the one I will be targeting the most. I love the idea of having players from both teams in separate lineup build and in the same one. FLY has an “okay” projected kills (PK) per game (9.5), but TSM has a better one (13.5). In my opinion, this is a battle that the PK is not a good measure of how it is going to play out. I can easily see both sides hitting about 15 PK per game, and this game going to a game five. In this matchup, there is going to be a lot of fantasy production. Both of these teams can go for anywhere between 25 and 35 fantasy points per game. I do believe TSM wins this series, but you can feel great knowing that FLY will also produce decent fantasy numbers.

FAVORITE CAPTAINS:

My favorite captains of this two-game LOL DFS slate are Perkz and Caps from G2, Bjergsen, and Kobbe from TSM, PowerOfEvil, and WildTurtle from FLY. My highest exposure captains will be Caps, Bjergsen, and PowerOfEvil.

SLATE SUMMARY:

I will be building seven ESPORTS DFS lineups. I will have a primary stack (main) of G2. I will be stacking FLY with G2 in two, TSM with G2 in two, G2, FLY, and TSM in one, and will have another two full game stacks with FLY and TSM. In most of my lineups, I will have either an ADC or a MID player in my captain spot. If I can not fit the MID or ADC, I will use the SUP position or will mix in a third team to use at the SUP position and Team option (three-two-two or four-two-one stack).
