DraftKings LoL: Saturday/Sunday Cheat Sheet
This article is geared towards Saturday and Sunday's slate. Just like the previous two days, four matches will take place, two from each day, including Splyce. Vs. Samsung, Royal Never Give Up vs. Team Solo Mid, IMAY vs. Flash Wolves, and Cloud9 against SK Telecom T1. Again there isn't a ton of value, but finding one or two places to save is important. With IMAY's support, Road, getting a one match ban, I'm not touching this team, leaving just seven options on the table.
Top Lane: Hauntzer (TSM vs. RNG, $6,400)
He's been over 30 points his last two games and I don't see TSM getting stomped like they did the first go around. It'll be important for Hauntzer to match Looper's ability to teleport and join teamfights if TSM are going to win.
Jungle: Svenskeren (TSM vs. RNG, $6,000)
Svenskeren got off to a great start the first matchup against RNG on Lee Sin. Like I said I don't see TSM getting stomped this time and actually favor the NA side to even the group stage against RNG. Throw in the fact that I don't like any of the cheap junglers and Sven is the pick.
Middle Lane: Faker (SKT vs. C9, $7,700) and Bjergsen (TSM vs. RNG, $7,200)
Faker is pretty cheap at only $7,700, and after destroying Jensen in their first meeting, I'd expect nothing less. Like Duke, he hasn't had a truly dominating stat line yet, but it can happen at any moment. Bjergsen is also cheap and although the matchup isn't as easy as Faker's, I think TSM can split the group stage against RNG with a win. After their first loss Bjergsen hasn't scored below 35 points.
ADC: Bang (TSM vs. C9, $7,700)
Again it's the reliability that gives Bang the edge over Doublelift or Uzi. SKT should win this game easily and although Bang hasn't shown a huge statline either, his cheap price and potential to go off at any time gives him the nod.
Support: Biofrost (TSM vs. RNG, $5,200) and Mata (RNG vs. TSM, $5,000)
Needing two supports, I'll go with two who have a good chance at 10+ assists anytime they hit the Rift. While it's not an easy matchup for the two supports facing each other, I can see a scenario where they both get to 10+ assists in a close game.
Team: TSM vs. RNG ($4,700)
I think TSM keep this game close and pull out the win against RNG. They've looked good after the first loss and should be able to even out the group stage matchup against the side from the LPL.
