FLY vs. CLG
In this matchup, I see FlyQuest being the chalkier team even though both of these teams' records are even at (3-1). Counter Logic Gaming has gotten their wins against the bottom of the barrel teams like Dignitas, Golden Guardians and Immortals who have a combined record of (1-11) so far in the Summer Split. FlyQuest is currently averaging 19 kills a game which makes them a great DFS target. FlyQuest should win this game easily since CLG haven't shown they can compete with the higher-tier teams in the LCS as of yet.
Prediction: FlyQuest
Players to target: Everyone on FlyQuest
TL vs. C9
This will be the match to watch Friday night since it features the undefeated Cloud9 and the much-improved Team Liquid after bringing on Tactical as ADC and Jatt as the new head coach. Team Liquid did take their first loss of the season against Evil Geniuses last week in a low-kill game where Team Liquid couldn't make any moves around the map. This is a spot where the talent of Cloud9, specifically Zven vs. Tactical, and Licorice vs. Impact will just lead to large advantages for the Cloud9 squad around the map like we saw in the Evil Geniuses game. Team Liquid went down in gold early versus Evil Geniuses and could never recover. I see the same thing happening here since Cloud9 is a better macro team than
