Game #1: Counter Logic Gaming (+161) v 100 Thieves (-218)
Game Breakdown: Both of these teams are locked in for the playoffs but how they end the split will be very important. Both teams lost on Friday and both teams have the team below them immediately in the standings. For 100 Thieves it is even worse because the team chasing them (Team Liquid) is their final game of the split, so if the struggles continue they very realistically could fall out of the top two spot. This should be a battle of the bottom lanes with FBI and Luger both being the focus for their respective team, so picking one should yield points if the results ends up breaking your way.
Favorite Picks: FBI (100: $7,600), Ssumday (100: $6,600), Abbedagge (100: $7,400)
Value Picks: Luger (CLG: $9,900/$6,600), Contractz (CLG: $5,800)
Cann’s Match Pick: 100 Thieves
Game #2: Team Liquid (-410) v Golden Guardians (+290)
Game Breakdown: The boys from TL are on a roll and performing more at the level that most expected them to. Golden Guardians shouldn’t be a real threat to this team but there is still a collective breath holding around TL’s consistency. TL will rely on their top half of the map to gain a big early game lead, so finding ways to slot in Bwipo, Santorin, and Bjergsen should pay dividends. GG could win through bottom lane, we have seen the CoreJJ/Hans sama duo struggle at times so there is a path for GG to win through their ADC (Stixxay).
Favorite Picks: Bjergsen (TL: $11,400/$7,600), Bwipo (TL: $6,800), Santorin (TL: $7,200)
Value Picks: Stixxay (GG: $6,400)
Cann’s Match Pick: Team Liquid
Game #3: Team Solomid (+190) v Cloud9 (-260)
Game Breakdown: An old rivalry is playing out again on Saturday, but this matchup shouldn’t produce the same fireworks that is has in years past. TSM is a shell of an organization and their preparation going into matches look limited. They get beat in draft, they get beat in micro-interations, and they lose the macro-game. There isn’t a phase I look at this team and I believe that they have the advantage over this Cloud9 team.
Favorite Picks: Berserker (C9: $10,800/$7,200), Jensen (C9: $7,200), Cloud9 ($5,200)
Value Picks: Spica (TSM: $6,400), Chime (TSM: $4,800)
Cann’s Match Pick: Cloud9
Game #4: Immortals (+135) v FlyQuest (-175)
Game Breakdown: FlyQuest pulled off a very impressive win over 100 Thieves on Friday. For them, you want to ride this momentum into your final two games of the split to hopefully crack into the top four in the standings. FlyQuest continues to heavily rely on Johnsun to carry their damage through the mid to late game, which makes him a prime captain candidate for your lineup. Immortals are barely hanging on to their postseason hopes right now, but they are lacking the team identity to play with the big teams consistently.
Favorite Picks: Johnsun (FLY: $11,100/$7,400), toucouille (FLY: $7,000)
Value Picks: Revenge (IMT: $5,600), Kenvi (IMT: $6,000)
Cann’s Match Pick: FlyQuest
Game #5: Evil Geniuses v Dignitas
Game Breakdown: This game shouldn’t be close, at all. EG should lock up the first seed today and do it in convincingly against the worst team in the league. Dignitas have somewhat hobbled their way to the end of the split but still have an outside chance to make playoffs (they only need to beat GG tomorrow). A lot of the EG players have huge price tags but one in particular you should look at is Inspired in the jungle. I love his pacing and his ability to stay involved throughout the game.
Favorite Picks: Danny (EG: $12,300/$8,200), jojopyun (EG: $7,800), Impact (EG: $7,600)
Value Picks: Hoon (DIG: $4,800)
Cann’s Match Pick: Evil Geniuses
