DraftKings LoL: Friday Cheat Sheet
Friday will see two very evenly matched series on Friday with Misfits taking on Spylce and Fnatic going up against Vitality. Fnatic is priced as the largest favorites, but I'm not sure they are overly deserving of that rank.
Top Lane: Cabochard (VIT vs. FNC, $6,000)
Cabochard has been the lone threat for Vitality so far this season and it's not like sOAZ or Fnatic have been dominate. He's fourth among top laners in kills, but has struggled with assists and kill participation. I still like him at this cheap price for his potential upside.
Jungle: KaKAO (MSF vs. SPY, $6,000)
KaKAO has been great for Misfits since joining during the offseason and while his kill total is low, he doesn't need to be the carry for this team. He's in the top four in assists, KDA, and kill participation among junglers and should be heavily involved in this close series.
Middle Lane: Sencux (SPY vs. MSF, $6,900)/PowerOfEvil (MSF vs. SPY, $7,100)
Both players want to be the main carries for there teams, but only PowerOfEvil has done so thus far in the split. I didn't expect this hot start from PoE, but he's been great, coming into the week with the third highest kill total among mid laners. Sencux is actually near the bottom in kills, but I'd expect that number to start creeping up in the near future.
ADC: Kobbe (SPY vs. MSF, $7,000)/Hans sama (MSF vs. SPY, $7,200)
Paying up for Rekkles or down for Steeelback doesn't make a ton of sense to me, so I'll go with another duo from the Misfits/Splyce game. Both marksmen are in the top four in kills, KDA and kill participation and despite it being a utility AD Carry meta, both have shown the capability to pop off.
Support: IgNar (MSF vs. SPY, $5,300)
I think IgNar has been the most impressive support so far in Europe, playing great through Misfits hot start to the season. He's fourth in assists, third in kill participation, and leads supports with an excellent 8.5 KDA. He's been a playmaker for Misfits and should be able to set up kills throughout a close series.
Team: SPY vs. MSF ($4,500)
This series is basically a coin flip as shown by the close pricing amongst players. I don't see either team truly crushing the other and with three other options available, the cheapest play likely could make the most sense in this scenario.
