LEC Matches

BDS (+275) vs. XL (-400)

This is a dream matchup for a surging XL team as they get a matchup against the much weaker BDS. XL is better across the map and makes for one of my top plays on the slate.

Patrik and Markoon have been the kill threats for XL this split and that should continue here. Mikyx has been exactly what this team needed to turn themselves into a contending team and not just one struggling for a playoff spot. Mikyx kill participation is near the top of the league and his ability to match roam timers with Markoon and find man advantages across the map is the reason this team has been so successful. I would stay away from Finn in this one as XL has played more for mid and bot lane while leaving Finn on an island in the top lane.

Top XL plays: Mikyx, Patrik, Markoon, Nukeduck

SK (+335) vs. RGE (-500)

This should be a pretty easy victory for RGE and there's not much to break down here. RGE is one of the top macro teams leveraging each small win into larger advantages meanwhile SK has not shown anything to make me believe they can compete against RGE. RGE could be popular here but I see this one having a low kill total in a dominant RGE victory. There are other games with more appeal on this slate.

Top RGE plays: Comp, Trymbi, Larssen

 

VIT (-185) vs. AST (+140)

I don't have much interest in VIT here but if you believe that AST's hot start has been a fluke, VIT shouldn't come with much ownership on this slate. Labrov, Perkz, and Haru are the 3 I would look to use.

I do have some interest in AST here, as I have mentioned before their team coordination has really impressed me and the confidence they have to start off fights knowing the rest of the team will back them up has been the key to their early split success. Jeonghoon has been a big upgrade at support and Xerxe has done a great job in the jungle so far. I have to admit, with AST swapping 3 players coming into the split I expected them to struggle. It is clear the organization made the right decision and it's nice to see a team that has struggled for so many splits come out of the gates looking good. All 5 players are in play here and if they can find the upset look for AST to be in the optimal lineups.

 

Top VIT plays: Labrov, Perkz, Haru

Top AST plays: Kobbe, Jeonghoon, Xerxe, Vizicacsi, Dajor

MSF (+225) vs. MAD (-310)

These two teams have come into the summer split on opposite ends. MAD with the addition of Nisqy look like a team that will contend for a spot at Worlds, meanwhile MSF look like a team who will find themselves near the bottom of the standings at the end of the split. The only chance MSF have is to put Vetheo on one of his signature champions and play through him. The issue with that is teams know that is MSF best chance to win and look to keep Vetheo in check. Elyoya is also a top-tier jungler and is often able to dictate how the map is played out.

Much like my breakdown of XL, MAD's style this split has been to leave Armut to himself in the top lane and look to bring Nisqy over to help Elyoya with neutral objectives as well as looking to find advantageous ganks in the bot lane. This has led to Armut putting up much lower numbers both kill participation and DFS-wise.

Top MAD plays: Elyoya, Unforgiven, Nisqy, Kaiser

 

 

G2 (-182) vs. FNC (+144)

G2 and FNC have the biggest rivalry in the LEC. We have seen the power shift back and forth between these two teams since the LEC began. More recently we have seen other organizations like RGE and MAD start to close the gap in terms of dominance but this is still the matchup the fans look forward to the most.

G2 is led by superstar mid-laner Caps who has already shown us some highlight plays this split. When Caps is playing at his best this G2 team is a tough beat and since playoffs in Spring, Caps has looked fantastic. G2 is one of the few teams that will play for Top lane and BrokenBlade has shown he is more than capable of carrying games. In most cases we see the top laners left alone for the landing phase, so G2 being able to bring a different style has been an advantage for them. Targamas leads the team in kill participation and his massive champion pool allows him to find favorable matchups, whether that be for the bot lane or for the overall team composition.

For FNC to be successful they will need to get the bot lane ahead. When Upset can dominate the team fights, FNC is at its best. He leads the team in kill share and I expect to see him very involved in this one. Razork will be a big component in how this game plays out, if he can find good gank positions on the bot side then FNC can pull this one out, if they aren't able to find successful ganks, Jankos will take advantage and steal top side jungle camps putting Razork even more behind.

Top G2 plays: Caps, BrokenBlade, Targamas

Top FNC plays: Upset, Hylissang, Razork

 

Summary

  1. GPP Stacks: XL/AST/G2/MAD
  2. Cash Stacks: MAD/XL/RGE

 

Good luck tomorrow RotoBallers!
