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).

On the 4/11 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) (-335).

FPX is coming off a devastating loss, and you better believe they are going to come in hot. EDG is a mediocre team that does not perform well against aggressive teams like FPX. I think FPX comes in here and wins in dominating fashion. I’m predicting a sweep.

2 TARGET: Gen. G (GEN) (-850):

Next, I’m going to target GEN. They are by far the number one team in the LCK. In my opinion, there is not a team that can come close to them. This is another game I’m predicting to only go two games. GEN has the ability to not only beat their opponents but to completely obliterate them. HLE is an awful team, and I think GEN is going to have their way with them and produce fantasy points close to one hundred at their MID and ADC positions.

3 TARGET: Suning (SN) (-220):

Next in line, I’m targeting SN. They are a team that plays every team tough. Any matchup they have been in this year where they have won, they produced high fantasy points. SN has beaten the bottom tier teams and pushed better teams to a third game. DMO is bad. This matchup could be pushed to a third game, but I do not see DMO coming out victorious. I’m going to have about fifty percent SN in my stacks tonight.

HONORABLE MENTION STACKS:

Invictus Gaming (IG) (-575)
or
Bilibili Gaming (BLG) (+350)

DragonX (DRX) (-400)

Favorite Captains:

Huanfeng (ADC)

LWX (ADC)

DoinB (MID)

Ruler (ADC)

Deft (ADC)

SLATE SUMMARY:

On the 4/11 five-game ESPORTS DFS slate, I’m going to be playing five lineups. Two FPX stacks, Two GEN stacks, Two SN stacks, and going to fill in with IG and BLG. I will have an even 50/50 split of IG and BLG. I will be using DRX in one lineup and in others as my one-off filler options at TOP, SUP, and Team option. I am going to be focused on four-two-one and four-three stacks in my five lineups. Good luck tonight, and don’t forget to come back and WIN DAILY.

Fnatic (FNC)(-475) vs. Mad Lions (MAD) +300):

This game is my favorite of the two LOL games. Fnatic (FNC) is coming into this game as the favorite. FNC blew the doors off of their opponent (Origen) last weekend with a three to one series win. The one game that they did lose, in my opinion, was a fluke. FNC is a kill producing powerhouse in the LEC. Today they have a tough matchup versus the up and coming Mad Lions (MAD), a team that has been known to be underestimated and overlooked. For Fnatic’s sake, I hope they don’t perform as they did in the first of their two regular-season matchups against MAD. This is going to be a high scoring, high producing, high kill rate series. When this battle is completely over, the winning team is going to be able to breathe finally. This is a series that can go either way, but what I do know is that I am going to want maximum exposure to the team that comes out victorious. This is a matchup that I am unable to feel confident about picking the winning team, and I will have lineups with both of the contending teams. My slight lean is on Fnatic, but I would not be surprised if the Mad Lions came out on top.

MY PICK: Fnatic (FNC).

Cloud9 (C9) (-1600) vs. Evil Geniuses (+650) (EG):

This is game number two of the ESPORTS DFS slate. There is not much to say here, but Cloud9 (C9) should come into this game and steamroll Evil Geniuses (EG). C9 is by far the best team in the league. I LOVE C9 today, and they will be my primary stack. I see no outcome of EG coming out on top. C9 is going to run through this series and never look back. I do not see this getting to a fourth game, let alone going to the fifth game. C9 should sweep EG. There will be no sign of any EG players in any of my lineups.

FAVORITE CAPTAINS:

My favorite captains on this two-game LOL DFS slate are Nisqy and Zven from Cloud9. Nemesis and Rekkles from Fnatic. Humanoid and Carzzy from Mad Lions. My highest exposure captains will be Nisqy, Zven, and Carzzy.

SLATE SUMMARY:

In most of my builds, I will have players from Fnatic, Cloud9, and Mad Lions. My “main” stack is Cloud9; they will be in every lineup that I build one way or the other. In all of my lineups, I am going to have an even split of FNC and MAD. I have no problem at all with a lineup that has a full game one stack (Fnatic and Mad Lions) in order to get different. In most 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 4/10 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: eStar (ES) (-215).

ES is facing off against a high producing LPL team (WE Gaming). They are the favorite in this matchup (-215). ES is coming into this game riding a three-game losing streak, after dismantling the LPL in five consecutive games before that. I believe ES might go overlooked, and this could be the prime spot to target them. They are going to be battling it out in the matchup with the highest projected kills(28). The next closest kill projection matchup on this ESPORTS DFS slate is a massive four kills behind (24). Not only am I a fan of eStar, but I am also going to have exposure to their opponent (WE Gaming). I want every bit of exposure to this game that I can fit.

#2 TARGET: Royal Never Give Up (RNG) (-1000).

Royal Never Give Up (RNG) is the biggest favorite on this ESPORTS DFS slate (-1000). RNG is coming into this game off of back to back losses. Before they lost to the number one team in the LPL (Invictus Gaming), they were putting together a great run of four wins in a row, with three out of the four matchups sweeping their opponents with different players producing over one hundred fantasy points in separate games. This team is going to bounce back with a vengeance, and I feel bad that Rogue Warriors (RW) are going to be on the receiving end of the beatdown.

3 TARGET: LGD Gaming (+160).

This matchup is definitely NOT the most exciting of the night. When I first looked at the matchups for today’s ESPORTS DFS slate, I immediately jumped on the Oh My God (OMG) side. After looking into the matchup more in detail, I started to notice that this battle wasn’t going to be as clear cut as I thought. OMG might have a better record and be the favorite here, but I believe its LGD with the edge. OMG has not beaten any meaningful team this year. In the games where they were supposed to be battling it out versus a top team, they were obliterated and swept two to zero. On the other side, LGD is coming in on a two-game heater, besting two very high fantasy producing and tougher opponents (RNG and WE). I can easily see LGD coming in here and shutting down OMG in a two to zero sweep.

HONORABLE MENTION STACKS:

WE Gaming (WE) (+155)

APK Prince (APK) (Even)

Favorite Captains:

Jiumeng (ADC)

Kramer (ADC)

Teacherma (MID)

Betty (ADC)

SLATE SUMMARY:

On the 4/10 five-game ESPORTS DFS slate, I will be going heavy on ES, RNG, and WE. I will have an even 50/50 split of ES and WE. I will have ONE lineup with a game stack of ES and WE. I will have a 50 percent share of RNG. The RNG stacks will be an identical build with both ES and WE in separate lineups. My LGD stacks will be spread throughout 25 percent of my builds. I will use APK as a filler for my one-off lineups at the SUP or Team position. I am going to be focused on four-two-one and four-three stacks in my eight lineups. 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 4.8 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 10 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 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.

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

• LNG – SO BAD, especially lately. They play a solid team tonight and are on a killer losing streak.
• LGD – One of the worst teams in the league, but they did recently beat WE and they aren’t a bad squad. I’m just favoring RNG as I see them as a top squad in the LPL. As of now, ZERO LGD lines
• AF – 6 game losing streak. NO THANKS!
• GRF – One of the worst teams in the LCK , but have had 2 super impressive wins in a row. They have a somewhat volatile lineup so I can see them going to subs if they lose a match. I’ll pass.
• SB – The worst team in the LCK. PASS!

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 TEN main lines all in a 300 person GPP. Hoping for a takedown and no more top 5 finishes! 1ST PLACE or BUST!!

EDG/RNG – I pair these two together because I am going to have the most shares of these two teams. In order to get some stacks with them together, I need to have a Support or Top captain and I’m going to do it to be different. It isn’t the optimal play, but I’m taking a shot tonight. EVERYONE from both teams is in play today! I’m running SUP and TOP guys are captain to fill up stacks with the favorites. Tonight is the night of NO UPSETS…. maybe?

JDG/IG – Before you think I’m crazy, please hear me out. Using this line once again. JDG is on fire and competing to show the world they are a top team in the LPL. Coming off an impressive win against ES, they face off against the 2nd best team in the LPL, IG. JDG is priced so low that I can fit them in stacks with both EDG and RNG with no problem. The main problem with IG is they are priced up, but not terribly. I have them in a few EDG and RNG lines as well. Like EDG/RNG, all players from both teams in play

T1 – LCK in general does not put up a ton of points on a nightly basis, but HOLY GEN LAST NIGHT. They went off so I’m thinking tonight is T1’s turn to do some damage. They have such a sexy matchup and I love stack Canna, Faker, and Teddy together with Teddy in a few at Captain. T1 doesn’t put up a ton of points, but I sense something brewing tonight. Lock them in.

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

If you’re betting tonight on the matches for 4.8 DFS, I say go -1.5 bet on all these teams – T1, EDG RNG.

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)
