DraftKings LoL: Wednesday LPL Cheat Sheet

DraftKings LoL: Wednesday LPL Cheat Sheet

This article is part of our DraftKings League of Legends series.

GAMES (EDT)

  • 2:00 a.m: Victory Five vs. LNG eSports
  • 4:00 a.m: TOP eSports vs. VICI Gaming
  • 6:00 a.m: JD Gaming v. Bilibili Gaming

V5 (0-4) vs. LNG (2-2)

This match pops off to me because V5 has been the worst team and LNG have had a tough schedule. LNG looks good bringing in xX and Maple to solidify some of their problems of last year. Now that they have a solid jungle mid and are a team that will finish the middle of the pack and can play spoiler against any team. Asura is out and LNG decided to play Light, who generally has been okay. I am not worried because his map awareness is solid and decision making is not bad at all. This is a game that's going to be popular on the LNG side and I'm all in! Full stack LNG and move on.

Prediction: LNG 2-0

Bets: None. I predict a 2-0 but the line isn't good and maybe V5 can cheese a game.

TES (2-2) vs. VG (1-4)

This is going to be a snooze fest, as these two teams rank on the lower end of game pace. TES has looked so bad for a team that brought in arguably the best jungler in the world. It seems like there might be some disagreement in who is calling the shots, causing TES to make mistakes that they normally don't make. VG, on the other hand, has finally started Maestro as their support player alongside

TES (2-2) vs. VG (1-4)

This is going to be a snooze fest, as these two teams rank on the lower end of game pace. TES has looked so bad for a team that brought in arguably the best jungler in the world. It seems like there might be some disagreement in who is calling the shots, causing TES to make mistakes that they normally don't make. VG, on the other hand, has finally started Maestro as their support player alongside with Chieftan; this should have been the starting roster from Day 1. VG are still in trial mode though, as last series they looked better in their drafts and execution. I still believe that they have more things to work out than TES, and the talent level of TES is too good to lose to a team like VG. This game is a lot closer than I wanted, but for GPPS I don't mind targeting either team.

Prediction: TES 2-1

Bets: even though I like TES, VG ML (+180) is great value because I can definitely see them winning as well. The line is too good to pass up.

JDG (4-1) vs. BLG (2-3)

I am so angry at BLG because this team should be so good. I went on a rant on Twitter about it but TLDR: this team needs to draft an early game comp and push the pace like they did in Game 1 against OMG. They smashed them and it was looking to be an amazing night, but G2 and G3 had early game leads and decided to take the foot off the gas. I was more mad that they made Kingen Split push with Quinn and Camille when literally they lost due to team fighting. ADD is subbing in for Kingen, and I'm not saying he has been playing poorly but I LOVE this move. ADD can play weak side really well and is so good in team fights, and I think this helps BLG a lot. Give meteor his comfort pick and I guarantee they will finish top-five of the league (JDG are currently in third place, dropping one game, which was to FPX). They didn't have a hard schedule at all other than the OMG game, but I don't count Week 1. JDG has looked weird lately in how they try to snowball teams and end games. They have been sloppy and I would like to think they are trolling in their games but who knows. I still think they are one of the better teams in this region, but the way they have been playing, any good team can punish them and this is the spot where I think with ADD can do that. I would definitely target both sides of this game because to me its more of a coin flip on who will win.

Prediction: BLG 2-1 (putting my last faith into them)

Bets: BLG ML (+300) is amazing value for a team of this caliber
