GAMES (EDT)
- 3:00 p.m: Golden Guardians (GG) vs. FlyQuest (FLY)
- 4:00 p.m: Dignitas (DIG) vs. Team SoloMid (TSM)
- 5:00 p.m: Evil Geniuses (EG) vs. Immortals (IMT)
- 6:00 p.m: Team Liquid (TL) vs. Cloud9 (C9)
- 7:00 p.m: 100 Thieves (100) vs. Counter Logic Gaming (CLG)
GG (7-10) vs. FLY (10-7)
A win clinches the second seed for FlyQuest, so expect them to play hard here to claim that spot heading into the playoffs. Golden Guardians have an outside shot of making playoffs with a win, but they need more to go right even if they do pull off the upset. I'd expect FlyQuest to take care of business here, as they'll want to avoid any potential tiebreakers they'd have to play with a loss.
Prediction: FLY win
FLY Players to Target: Santorin ($7,400), PowerOfEvil ($8,200), WildTurtle ($7,800), Ignar ($6,400)
DIG (7-10) vs. TSM (9-8)
DIG kept their slim playoff hopes alive with a win over Immortals on Saturday, but I can't see them beating TSM here. TSM are still alive for the second seed, and after losing to 100 Thieves on Saturday, they'll want to bounce back as they head into the playoffs. Bjergsen and BrokenBlade remain the key cogs of the team, while any hope with DIG rests on the shoulders of Froggen and Johnsun.
Prediction: TSM win
DIG Players to Target: Froggen ($6,800), Johnsun ($6,800)
TSM Players to Target: BrokenBlade ($7,200), Bjergsen ($7,400),
EG (9-8) vs. IMT (8-9)
EG are confirmed in the playoffs, while Immortals could've clinched Friday

EG (9-8) vs. IMT (8-9)
EG are confirmed in the playoffs, while Immortals could've clinched Friday but fell to DIG and need a win to confirm themselves as the last team in the playoffs. Unfortunately, I don't see them picking up a win here, so they're likely going to have to scrap it out in tiebreakers. Immortals have been so slow that even if they do win, I don't think they're great plays for fantasy, even if they are cheap.
EG Players to Target: Svenskeren ($6,400), Jiizuke ($7,200), Bang ($8,000), Zeyzal ($5,800)
IMT Players to Target: Xmithie ($5,000), Apollo ($6,400), Hakuho ($4,000)
TL (7-10) vs. C9 (16-1)
Team Liquid still have the slimmest playoff hopes, as they'd need to win and have other results go their way to sneak into tiebreaker games. Unfortunately, they've been awful and Cloud9 won't be in the mood to do them any favors. Cloud9 are locked into the first seed and will happily keep the four-time defending LCS champions from back-dooring their way into the playoffs with a win.
Prediction: C9 win
TL Players to Target: Jensen ($6,400), Doublelift ($6,000)
C9 Players to Target: Licorice ($6,200), Blaber ($7,600), Nisqy ($7,800), Zven ($8,400), Vulcan ($6,200)
100 (9-8) vs. CLG (3-14)
100 Thieves are actually playing great and rounding into form heading into the playoffs. This is a streaky team, but they're running hot and are actually putting up high kill totals in their games. This one should be straightforward, as CLG are the worst team in the league with nothing to play for and 100 Thieves need this win to fight for a top seed in the playoffs.
Predicition: 100 win
100 Players to Target: Ssumday ($7,000), Meteos ($7,000), Ryoma ($7,600), CodySun ($7,600)
