(-230) Victory Five v Bilibili Gaming (+173)

(+140) JD Gaming v LNG Esports (-185) 

Absolute shocking result in the LPL on Monday morning with the reigning World Champions (EDG) losing 2-1 to Anyone’s Legend. A team who looked invincible to start the 2022 season are now on a two game skid and in sixth place. Does the same fate await the current first-place team, Victory Five? They are squaring off against BLG, who has shown moments of excellence but are on a two game losing streak of their own. In the other matchup, we have the fourth-place LNG taking on the seventh-place JDG. With all four teams currently on pace for the Spring playoffs, we are set up for exciting games on Tuesday morning! Let’s dive in!

Fantasy Value Breakdown


Series #1: Victory Five v Bilibili Gaming

Game Breakdown: While BLG may have watched AL dismantle EDG on Monday morning and become inspired, logic is telling us that V5 should be a safe pick here. Both teams have their main carry in their ADC role with Photic carrying the side of V5 and Doggo doing the heavy lifting for BLG. In the direct comparison, Photic has 45 more kills, 14 more assists, and 16 less deaths in the exact same amount of games played. Photic has a 33% team kill share percentage and we have not seen a team who has been able to put Photic and Ppgod behind enough in the bottom lane to keep them out of a series. I am also looking closely at the mid lane matchup between Rookie and Fofo. While Fofo is individually skilled (78.1 FPPG), Rookie has the benefit of his high impact jungler Karsa coming and helping him mid. Karsa’s impact on the map will be a game changer and help determine whether or not V5 hold onto the top spot in the LPL. 

Favorite Picks: Photic (V5: $11,700/$7,800) Rookie (V5: $11,400/$7,600), Victory Five ($5,000)

Value Picks: Breathe (BLG: $5,600), FoFo (BLG: $6,800)

Cann’s Match Pick: Victory Five (2-1)  


 

Series #2: JD Gaming v LNG Esports

Game Breakdown: This is a great place to pick up a underdog on this slate. JD Gaming is coming off of a win over V5 and a convincing stomp of Ultra Prime. LNG on the other hand, have only won their series over TT (2-1 nonetheless) and lost series against V2, WBG, and TES in the last two weeks of games. You may want to slot Hope (the JDG ADC) as your captain. He is cheap and is outproducing everyone on the slate. He has a 91.3 FPPG and is averaging over five kills a game. This man is a menace and I think we are going to see this bottom lane carry a struggling Yagao (JDG mid) to a victory. Doinb may need to perform some miracles for LNG, but he will need to move away from his supportive playstyle. He has 235 assists, which is an astronomical amount for a mid-laner, but kills are what LNG is going to need from him on Tuesday. 

Favorite Picks: Light (LNG: $7,600), Doinb (LNG: 10,800/$7,200)

Value Picks: Hope (JDG: $10,800/$7,200), Missing (JDG: $5,200), JD Gaming ($4,600)

Cann’s Match Pick: JD Gaming (2-1)
