League of Legends LoL DFS

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 4.6 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 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. With a 3 game slate, anything is possible so TOP or SUP at CAPTAIN is OK.

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

• LNG – SO BAD, especially lately. They play the best team in FPX. I’ll pass.
• DMO – I’m using them in 1-2 lineups. Just saying that now, but not my favorite. They are a terrible team, but BLG is nothing to sing praise about. BLG almost takes every game to a third game and they choke on that game. With all the recent upsets, I wouldn’t be surprised if DMO wins.

I’m focusing on a ton of 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 200 person GPP. Hoping for a takedown and no more top 5 finishes! 1ST PLACE or BUST!!

Last night, we had a Support Captain with the big takedown. That’s only the second time in 26 days and first time for a 3 game slate. Anything can happen in a 3 game slate, but Support at Captain is NOT recommended. Since it is a 3 game slate, I’ll have 1 or 2 lines with support at captain.

FPX – All 5 players are in play as they face off against LNG. LNG looks almost as bad as V5 in their past 5 games in getting swept on almost a nightly basis. A once promising team with my boy, Maple, and now they are in free fall. Load up on FPX. LWX, Khan, Crisp are all in play at Captain. Tian could work also!

JDG/ES – Before you think I’m crazy, please hear me out. VG and RNG recently beat ES and they don’t look as dominate as they once were. JDG is probably my second favorite stack because they fit perfect with FPX so I’m going to ride them in 3-5 lineups. Call me crazy, but ES looks bad lately. This is a game I probably hedge and go 50/50 between JDG and ES.

BLG – Do not ask me why, but I am a big fan of BLG in general. They are a pretty solid squad, but they just choke it in the 3rd match. They constantly win the first match then just blow it the last 2 matches. Look at the stats. They almost ALWAYS go 3 games. I’m a fan of them today going against a weak DMO squad so load them up with FPX, JDG, and ES in at least ONE lineup together!

If you’re betting tonight on the matches for 4.6 DFS, I say go FPX (-1.5), JDG (ML), and BLG (ML).

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 Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds.

• V5 – SO BAD and have ZERO wins.
• RW – One of the worst teams also. I currently have ZERO out of 10, but there’s a chance I might do ONE given all the recent upsets.

I’m focusing on a ton of 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 200 person GPP. Hoping for a takedown and no more top 5 finishes! 1ST PLACE or BUST!!

Suning – All 5 players are in play as they face off against V5. We hope that it doesn’t end too quick as it has been happening for V5. Some can even say with all the upsets that V5 may win, but I choose to not go the V5 route. I’m trying to stack SN with TES, VG, and OMG. In regards to SN stacks, I’m trying to do a majority of 4 person stacks with ADC and MID at the Captain spot. I have one lineup with SwordArt at Captain to fit a full TES/SN Stack. It’s the only way. Keep in mind that bin is starting in the top lane today.

TES – Similar to Suning, these guys are heavy favorites versus a bad Rogue Warriors team. My plan is to focus on the ADC/MID for TES and stack with OMG and VG. I have two lines with 369 AND QiuQiu at Captain to fit the VG stacks. All the players are in play tonight and I lean the 4 player stacks with TES as well.

OMG / VG – Here’s the tough match of the night. If you’re going OMG, you can use Knight, Photic, huangfeng, or Angel at Captain with a full 3-3 stack. If OMG wins, I feel a lot of people are winning the big prize tonight. Unfortunately, a 4-2 stack doesn’t fit until you go 4 OMG guys and I DO NOT recommend that. OMG is a team who does not score a lot of points so it’s risky to have any of them in the Captain spot. The main way to be different is to put the TOP or SUP guys in your captain spot with OMG stacked up, but I don’t recommend it. In regards to VG stacked with ES or RW, you need to have a TOP or SUP guy at Captain no matter what. The guys I recommend at Captain tonight at TOP and SUP are 369, Cube, SwordArt, Hang, and QiuQiu to go with the stack of VG/SN or VG/TES.

If you’re betting tonight on the matches, I say go SN (-1.5), TES (-1.5), and VG money line.

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 4/5 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.

Cloud9 (C9) vs. 100 Thieves (LCS):

This game is my favorite of the two LOL games.  Cloud9 (C9) is coming into this game as the favorite. In my opinion, they are not favored enough. 100 Thieves do not stand a chance versus the aggressive nature of C9.  This game could easily be over right from the start. C9 is the overall better team, whether it be producing kills, capturing dragons, or even just scaling the map. This is where my favorite stack of this two-game ESPORTS DFS slate lies. I have no problem getting to every team member of C9. I will be using up to four players from Cloud9 in every ESPORTS DFS lineup I create.

Rouge vs. Misfits Gaming (LCS):

This is game number two of the ESPORTS DFS slate. These two teams are a little closer than the previous two. My primary focus is this matchup is going to be the underdog (Rouge).  I love the idea of being able to fit a stack of C9 and Rouge (RGE)  into one DFS lineup, that is not going to be difficult.  This game is going to be a little less fantasy-friendly. Both of these teams like to play the wait and strike approach, waiting until the last possible second to make their move. The more aggressive side is Rouge. I will be focusing on trying to mix and match the pieces of this game as filler to my ESPORTS DFS lineup that is crammed with Cloud 9 players.  I will most likely have little to no exposure to Misfits Gaming (MSF). I do not believe that they make it past game four. MSF is an average team on a losing streak, and I believe that streak continues here.

In most of my builds, I will have players from Cloud 9 and Rouge. I have no problem at all with a lineup that has a full game one stack (Cloud 9 and 100 Thieves) in order to get different. All of my lineups will have either an ADC or a MID player in my captain spot. My favorite captains of this two-game LOL DFS slate are Nisqy and Zven; both are on Cloud9.

SLATE SUMMARY:

On the 4/5 ESPORTS DFS two-game slate, I will be going heavy on C9 and RGE. I am going to be focused on different player combinations with four-three stacks in my four lineups. Good luck tonight, and don’t forget to come back and WIN DAILY.

Below you can find my 4/4 ESPORTS DFS LOL targets can be used in both cash games and GPP’s. When playing LOL, I recommend playing Tournaments. I am playing DraftKings ONLY. 

#1 TARGET: JD GAMING (JDG).

JDG is facing off against a terrible LPL team (LNG). They are a heavy favorite (-313) in this fantastic spot, in a matchup with the second-highest combined projected kills (24.5) on tonight’s ESPORTS DFS slate, only behind, in my opinion, the most exciting game of the night between RNG and IG, but we will get there. JDG came out in their last game and ended their brutal three-game losing streak with a convincing two to one victory over Suning (SN). This is going to be my favorite team stack of the night. I will have many players from JDG in about 70 percent of my lineups. I recommend stacking four players from JDG, in either a four-three stack or a four-two-one stack. They are going to obliterate LNG tonight. I wouldn’t want to be the person who didn’t have them in my lineup.

#2 TARGET: APK PRINCE (APK).

I usually am not a fan of targeting LCK teams on an ESPORTS DFS slate that also has a few higher scoring LPL teams on it. This is a spot I couldn’t ignore. APK is coming in on fire, on a three-game winning streak. They are not only beating their opponents, but they are absolutely lighting them up and looking good while they do it. They have had some of the highest fantasy point scorers in the LCK. Every player on their starting roster has produced over 80 fantasy points in two out of their last three games, except for one player (Secret), even he has produced 65 fantasy points and above in all three of those games, playing the Support position. APK is in a matchup versus Griffin (GRF). GRF is on a nine-game losing streak and is going to get demolished by APK. APK is not even a heavy favorite (-162). This game to me has APK written all over it, and I am going to be all in on the APK Prince train tonight.

#3 TARGET: INVICTUS GAMING (IG) OR ROYAL NEVER GIVE UP (RNG).

This matchup is the most exciting of the night. It is a battle between the LPL’s number one team (IG) and the number four team (RNG). I think this is a game where the winning ESPORTS DFS lineup will be stacked with one of these two teams. If I had to choose a winner here, I would lean IG. This matchup is projected to have the most kills per game (29.5). Getting exposure to these players is a must. I am going to have multiple different lineups with a three or four-man stack from IG and a couple more lineups with a three or four-man stack from RNG. I DO NOT recommend fading this game for any reason, as this is going to be a fantasy-friendly matchup, with a ton of kills.

HONORABLE MENTION STACKS:

SK TELECOM T1 (T1)

BILIBILI GAMING (BLG)

HANWHA LIFE ESPORTS (HLE)

SLATE SUMMARY:

On the 4/4 ESPORTS DFS six-game slate, I will be going heavy on JDG and APK. I will be pairing those stacks with each other and with one of the other between IG or RNG and going to mix in a few stacks from BLG or HLE. I am going to be focused on four-two-one, three-three-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 4/3 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 6 lineups today!

League of Legends LCK ONLY TODAY. SHOULD BE LOW SCORING

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.

For a THREE game League of Legends slate, you can do JNG or TOP as CAP. I don’t recommend Support Captain because none of those guys have a high ceiling.

League of Legends Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds. Because we will not have starting lineups before lock, make sure

• APK – They have played better, but I like KT too much. For a 3 game slate, I don’t hate you going this route for ONE lineup. Again, I’m doing 6 lineups and I’ll have ONE APK line. That is all!
• DRX – They look bad as of late. They did have an impressive win versus KT recently, who was on a 7 game winning streak, but GEN is my favorite stack today.
• HLE – DO NOT FADE HLE. Just fade the MID AND ADC position unless we get CONFIRMED STARTING LINEUPS. They change starters and don’t announce before lock usually so it’s risky. DO NOT RISK it unless starters are announced before lock.
• SB – DO NOT FADE SB. Just fade the JNG position UNLESS starting lineups are posted before lock.

I’m focusing on a ton of 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 SIX main lines all in a 200 person GPP. Hoping for a takedown and no more top 5 finishes! 1ST PLACE or BUST!!

GEN – Priced down and the second best team in the LCK. DRX has sort of been reeling, but did have a big win the other day against the streaking KT squad. GEN doesn’t really lose unless they face off against T1 so I’m banking on them to continue this streak. They are priced lower than KT and I’m going to ride them in 3-4 of my lines. Ruler and BDD will be my Captains.

KT – 7-1 in their last 8 matches playing against a mediocre to bottom ranked APK. The thing about APK is they have actually been playing well. KT has been playing like the 3rd best team in this league until their recent loss to DRX. I’ll have them in 2-3 lineups because of my fear of APK’s hot streak, but KT should steam roll. Aiming is my favorite choice at Captain.

SB/HLE – The battle of 2 bad teams playing for “honor” at this point. Again, I’m going re-emphasize what I said above with the below. These two teams are so volatile with their starting lineups that it worries me so avoid the positions I list below. I will have 2 lineups of each of these teams and I’ll have more if starting lineups are announced before lock. The winning league of legends lineup tonight will have one of these two tonight!

• HLE – DO NOT FADE HLE. Just fade the MID AND ADC position unless we get CONFIRMED STARTING LINEUPS. They change starters and don’t announce before lock usually so it’s risky. DO NOT RISK it unless starters are announced before lock.
• SB – DO NOT FADE SB. Just fade the JNG position UNLESS starting lineups are posted before lock.

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 DFS LoL

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 4/2 League of Legends LoL DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 7 lineups today!

League of Legends DFS 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 with IG or ES, but it isn’t ideal and doesn’t win the big money as often.

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

• V5 – They are HORRIBLE. Don’t ever play.
• SB – One of the worst in the LCK and playing one of the best. NO THANKS!
• GRF – Similar to SB. One of the worst playing one of the best

I’m focusing on a ton of teams for my League of Legends DFS main 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!!

League of Legends LoL DFS

LoL DFS iG – I’ll have a ton of lines with iG hoping that V5 just feeds them kills during both matches. I’ll be targeting Puff at CAP along with some lines of Southwind or TheShy at CAP to get salary relief for full stacks. It isn’t ideal and I don’t recommend, but to get iG, we need to come up with some funny business. If V5 beats iG, I quit ESports. Plain and simple!

LoL DFS ES – Did ES break our hearts 2 nights ago or what? With the LPL up in a frenzy and having upsets on a nightly basis, I wouldn’t be surprised if RNG pulls upset here. I’ll have a good share of ES with ShaiuC to be “different” and fit a full stack. Similar to IG, ES is going to be tough to get a full stack in with. I feel like IG will be chalkier than ES because of the matchup, which gives you leverage with ES. I actually prefer ES tonight in tournaments over IG because IG is going to steamroll over V5 and this could cut into them hitting value tonight.

LoL DMO – Can DMO pull another upset? As the only team that fits a full stack with ES and IG, I’m rocking them in quite a few lineups. The only team I’m stacking them with is IG and ES in hopes that they could pull off the upset versus EDG. I’m locking in GALA and XIYE mixed with the other guys in quite a few lineups. If I had to pick one upset tonight, it’s these guys. They are on a winning streak too so ride the hot streak!

LoL EDG – Priced a little too high for my taste, but this is another team that is on fire. They face DMO and could easily win, but I’m riding DMO to stack IG and ES with them. EDG will be in 2 of my 10 stacks to hedge my heavy DMO ownership.

LoL DFS RNG – Enter RNG as a big underdog against ES. ES is going to come into this match pretty pissed off after losing to VG, but will they be able to beat an RNG team that is better than VG? RNG is a middle of the pack team that could beat ES if they are on their game. I’ll have about 2 lineups of RNG to hedge my ES builds.

LoL DFS GEN/T1 – These two teams are heavy favorites, but don’t score a ton of points no matter what. They are the 2 best teams in the LCK, but they aren’t usually too aggressive in the kills department and just wait it out till the end. I’ll have 1-2 lineups of each of these teams, but they should easily win and I fear that they won’t hit value because of it.

LoL DFS AF/DWG – Want to talk about a team that is falling apart? Well, let’s talk about AF. These guys were at the top of the standings for most of the season with T1, GEN, and DRX, but they’ve hit a cold streak now. They lost to APK last night and if they play like they did yesterday, they are in for a rude awakening against DWG. DWG and AF are tied for the last and final playoff spot and the season is about to come to an end. DWG has been rolling while AF has been reeling. I’ll have shares of both League of Legends teams as they are both pretty evenly priced for DFS, but proceed with caution on the cold AF team.

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 3/31 DFS Tournament for DraftKings CounterStrike CS GO slate.  This is focused around DraftKings ONLY and my focus on what I plan to do with my 3 lineups tomorrow!

Here’s a brief crash course on CS GO and what it entails.

I’m taking this from our boy, JT, but here’s the run down. I fixed some grammar issues plus added some things!

The main thing you need to understand is the DK scoring system and how these players get points. A kill is +1.5 FP, an assist is +1FP, and death is -1pt FP. Entry kill is +.5 FP (like first blood in LOL). 1v2 Clutch = if there is one guy remaining on team protecting the bomb or vice versa and that player kills both remaining players he gets an extra +1FP on top of his +2FP for killing both players. 1v3 Clutch = extra 2 points on top of +3FPs for killing all 3. 1v4 clutch = +3 extra points plus +4 for killing the remaining four players. 1v5 clutch = +5 extra points plus 5FPs for killing all five players. Quad kill is when you get four kills in any specific round (no order needed, just four in general) +3 points additional. Ace is when one player kills entire opposing team by himself plus 5 additional FPs. Biggest thing to look at is K/D ratio, which is Kill/Death ratio so find the person with the best kill/death ratio.

With CS GO, a player score gets multiplied by 30 and divided by rounds played. As long as a player has a good K/D ratio. They can be a great play. It’s a weird stat that gets you a ton of point so we emphasize K/D ratio even more. Stacking is not as relevant in CS GO as it is in LOL. It does not matter if player is on winning or losing team. The K/D ratio is used at even par for everyone (best KD ratio, = best fantasy player) if you are going to stack two teams, they are going to limit the upside of those players. I would do a stack of 2 at MAX. Best scenario is no matter what team, you need to find the best K/D ratio and play them. I forgot to mention if a player gets 10 kills a game (random) but dies 8 times, they have a K/D ratio of 2. Find those guys with the highest K/D raio.

I feel like the best stacks thus far are 2-2-1-1 stacks. Below is my plan for the 3.31 CS GO slate tomorrow.

Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds

• VP – Only person in my player pool is JAME b/c of his K/D ratio , but this team is pretty rough.
• CPHF – Fade. TeSeS and JT are OK plays , but I think i just lean TeSeS only.
• NV – Full fade. They aren’t that good.
• MIBR – They aren’t in the best form lately. I think I’ll pass on this entire squad. Risky because they are one of the best ranked teams in the world. I’ll take my chances

I’m focusing on 3 teams for my main lines today. That being said, I’ll list who’s in my player pool below, but I will have a mix of 4 teams. Those with the highest K/D ratios.

Mouz

• ropz – +16 K/D his last 3 matches. Probably their best player in a great matchup.
• frozen – +14 K/D his last 2 matches and one of the more consistent players on this team.
• chrisJ – He’s a MAYBE. In one line max. He usually either puts up a +10 or +15 K/D ratio one match than -10 K/D the next. He isn’t very consistent.

Cloud9 –

• Sonic – +17 K/D in his last 3 and in a killer matchup. He will most likely be in ALL 3 of my lineups.
• oSee – +38 K/D in his last 3 and similarly in a killer matchup as Sonic. Again, I will have in all 3 lineups.

HAVU – nV isn’t very good and I think this is a sneaky stack for HAVU to have a ton of positive K/D. Only really targeting these guys as one offs. Chance I only go for ZOREE and sLowi only.

• ZOREE
• doto
• sLowi

100 Thieves – Probably my favorite group of guys. Coming off a tough loss vs. TL. I think they bounce back. Gratisfaction will only be in 1 lineup and that’s about it, but I’m a big fan of jks and jkaem

• jkaem
• Gratisfaction
• jks

With ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or below and be different and win the $50k (if I don’t)

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 3/30 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 7 lineups today!

Side Note – Before we begin, I’d like to point out the last 5 nights have had a big payout to the person who has JNG or MID in the Captain. ADC at Captain was the big winner the nights before that. Focus on A M J, which is ADC, JNG, or MID at Captain. Don’t put SUP or TOP in your Captain spot.

This is a TWO gamer so feel free to be different and put JNG , TOP, SUP at Captain tonight, but again, it isn’t the ideal strategy in LPL.

Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds

• OMG – Playing one of the best teams, iG. I’ll pass

I’m focusing on 3 teams for my MME and my main lines today. That being said, I’ll list who’s in my player pool below, but I will have a mix LGD and EDG with iG and that’s it. If OMG wins…. I’ll take my losses!

iG – I’ll have the majority of my lines with PUFF at Captain. I think I’ll avoid going ROOKIE at Captain and just focus on the GPP plays of THESHY and SOUTHWIND as other captain options. In order to fit a full EDG/IG stack, you need a SUP or TOP captain to make it happen. Not ideal, but it’s a 2 gamer so anything goes. For JNG, Leyan is starting for Ning AGAIN. Do NOT play Ning.

EDG – This is the favorite and I expect them to win, but I wouldn’t be surprised at a LGD upset tonight. Similar to what I mentioned above, I’m only doing iG for the other game so this full stack only works with iG with a TOP or SUP at Captain. Aodi is at TOP again and Meiko is at SUP. I’d prefer Southwind at CAP. Don’t do Meiko at Captain spot.

LGD – The full LGD stack fits perfect with iG today. I think I still lean the IG side for the Captain spot, but you could go Yuuki or Kramer at Captain with IG to be different. FenFen is starting at TOP and Killua at SUP so keep that in mind

With 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)
