Esports – LPL 4/7 2AM ET Slate

Notes for Tonight’s 2AM ET Slate

3 Game (Best of 3) LPL Slate

Games

DMO (+125) vs BLG (-170)

This is a close game between two of the lower ranked teams. In my mind I expected BLG to make a turnaround at some point in the season, they have plenty of talent that just isn’t translating into wins. They have had a tough schedule thus far but almost won against EDG in their last match. You could say they probably should have won that series because they were in a prime position to win, especially in game 3, but could not close it out. DMO are a very mediocre team in my opinion, they do not have any notable star players like BLG do, and they have struggled even against weaker opponents. They have played better as of late but I am not convinced yet. A lot of people are targeting this game as a spot where 2 bad teams may just have a blood bath, but it can also very likely be the exact opposite. I would not be surprised if this series is a complete snooze-fest no matter who wins. I think BLG are the better team when it is said and done and they play smart most of the time. If they draft properly they will win in my eyes.

Players to watch (DMO): Gala, Natural, xiye
Players to watch (BLG): Meteor, Fofo, Jinjiao


JDG (+110) vs ES (-150)

This is a close game between two pretty good teams. JDG with Zoom are a different animal, a legitimate threat in the top lane and a massive upgrade to 705. They have been consistent all year long and are a top team in the LPL in my eyes. Not the best, but near the top. ES are near the top at the current moment in time, but I do not think they are on the same tier as other elite teams in the LPL. ES has lost two in a row and both to good teams. That is a trend that I suspect will continue for them, they play very predictably  and teams are finally starting to figure it out. JDG are smart enough to avoid falling into the same trap and can play through their multiple win conditions. Of course this game is very close so both sides are usable, but I am firmly on JDG’s side tonight. If ES win they will do it in the same way they always do, meaning large fantasy point scores.

Players to watch (JDG): Zoom, Kanavi, Loken
Players to watch (ES): Wink, Cryin, ShiauC

FPX (-1600) vs LNG (+650)

This is the one truly safe play of the night. FPX are hitting their stride and are starting to head towards securing the top spot in the LPL. With Khan having a fantastic showing (gameplay wise not fantasy wise) against V5, they now have another threat on their team. They have another very winnable match up tonight against LNG, who have been losing a lot recently. FPX are dominating teams that try to scale for late game and aren’t proactive, so LNG will need to fight to stand a chance. Light is playing for LNG again and I still think he is the weaker of their 2 ADCs. FPX should dominate this game and I expect a 2-0 to be the result here.

Players to watch (FPX): Doinb, Khan, Lwx
Players to watch (LNG): Flandre, Maple

Favourite stacks: FPX > JDG > BLG > ES > DMO > LNG
All these teams are technically in play since it is a small slate.
