DraftKings LoL: Sunday Cheat Sheet
Counter Logic Gaming and Team Liquid are the big favorites of the day, but are expensive and I'm not totally sure they're worth their prices. Therefore I'm using a more spread out approach across the board. We get a chance to see just how good Team Dignitas really are as they face Cloud9, and a series between Team SoloMid and Immortals should definitely provide plenty of fantasy points.
Top Lane: Ssumday (DIG vs. C9, $5,800)/Flame (IMT vs. TSM, $6,000)
I'll continue to use Ssumday as long as he's cheap. This isn't an easy matchup, both against Impact and against Cloud9, but Ssumday has the quality to be a cheap addition to your lineup. He's good enough that I don't think he'll ever feed in any matchup and will be a big reason why if DIG manage to take a game off of C9. Flame is also cheap due to the matchup, but looks like one of the main carry threats for IMT moving forward. Like Ssumday, his quality makes him usable even in tough matchups.
Jungle: Dardoch (IMT vs. TSM, $5,600)
Junglers have had major impact on games during the first week and Dardoch is cheaply priced for his potential upside. He can carry games if put on a damage dealing jungler and although I'd expect TSM to win the series, I don't think they will sweep IMT easily. Contractz is reasonably priced after his big debut and is certainly a cash game must play, but he's likely to be extremely high owned making him a solid fade in tournaments.
Middle Lane: Bjergsen (TSM vs. IMT, $7,200)/Jensen (C9 vs. DIG, $7,400)
Bjergsen really struggled on Friday, but expect a bounce back today against IMT. He's too good of a player to be that poor again and although Pobelter is a smart mid laner, Bjergsen should be the main reason TSM take this series. Jensen is one of the main carries for C9 and is coming off a great series against TSM. Keane played well yesterday for DIG, but this series should go C9's way with Jensen being a big reason why.
ADC: Sneaky (C9 vs. DIG, $7,500)
Paying down for an ADC right now is a legit strategy with so many marksmen playing utility roles. The problem is I am not overly confident in LOD or CodySun today, but think they are useable if you want to go that route. Sneaky isn't too overly priced and, like Jensen, should be a major reason why C9 win this series.
Support: Biofrost (TSM vs. IMT, $5,500)
Biofrost should be able to help TSM bounce back from their Friday loss at the hands of C9. He's in a good spot to get 10+ assists in every game played as IMT's first series of the season was particularly bloody. If that trend keeps up look for TSM to pick up plenty of kills in a back and forth series.
Team: TSM vs. IMT ($5,000)
TSM should bounce back today with a win over IMT. While TSM looked less than stellar against C9, Immortals were real shaky on their opening match of the season. IMT may take a game, but TSM should take the series.
