We are going to start by breaking down the two matchups of the new LPL split scheduled to go off at 5 am and 7 am Eastern standard time on Monday The DraftKings and FanDuel slates lock at 5 am SHARP. The slate is two best of three-game series LPL (Chinese League) matches.
The first match is TOP ESPORTS (TES) (-450) VS. VICTORY FIVE (V5) (+290), and the second match is SUNING GAMING (SN) (-215) VS. BILIBILI GAMING (BLG) (+155). I am going to break down each game the way I feel it will play out. I will post my betting picks and favorite team immediately following the breakdown.
At the later stage of my article, I will have a list of my favorite captain’s/stars in order of preference. This article is for both Draftkings and FanDuel.
MATCH ONE: LPL SUMMER SPLIT
MATCH ONE: TOP ESPORTS (TES) (-450) VS. VICTORY FIVE (V5) (+290).
What more does TES have to do to prove that they are the best team in the LPL and possibly the world. JAckeyLove joined the team after being surprisingly teamless for multiple weeks and immediately came in as the shot caller. He turned everything around for TES, and now they have a legitimate shot at the world title. I see Knight and JackeyLove as being the best MID ADC combo in the world, which is why I will have 80% exposure to TES.
V5 is a great new team, but I do not think they have what it takes to take out TES. V5 will give it there all and could force a game three with high production, but in the end, its TES all day!
MY LPL DFS PICK: TOP ESPORTS (TES) (-450).
MATCH TWO: SUMMER SPLIT.
MATCH TWO: SUNING GAMING (SN) (-215) VS. BILIBILI GAMING (BLG) (+155).
This match here is a true coinflip. Two surprising teams coming into the 2020 LPL summer split. SN has run with some of the best but has crumbled in the eyes of adversity. They have a ton of problems putting teams away, and that could be their downfall this split.
BLG is one of those teams that is extremely unpredictable, they can beat the best team in the league one day and lose to the worst team in the league the next. That means anything can happen here, but my eyes are on BLG as the underdog and fan favorite to win this series. I will have a 60 40 split of this game.
MY LPL DFS PICK: BILIBILI GAMING (BLG) (+155).
FAVORITE CAPTAINS / STARS:
KNIGHT (TES) (ADC)
JACKEYLOVE (TES) (ADC)
WINGS (BLG) (ADC)
HUANFENG (SN) (ADC)
FOFO (BLG) (MID)
ANGEL (SN) (MID)
SAMD (V5) (ADC)
SLATE SUMMARY: LPL SUMMER SPLIT
I will be building fifteen ESPORTS DFS lineups. My exposure in my LOL LPL DFS lineups will consist of 80% TES, 60% BLG, 40% SN, and 20% V5. Most of my stacks will be four/three. I will prioritize using ADC and MID in my captain spot.
