Slate Thoughts:
This slate looks really tough tonight from a cash game perspective, but from a tournament perspective, it looks like a really fun slate to play. I believe all dogs are live tonight, except ThunderTalk Gaming. Looking into the matchups tonight, if I were to play cash games, I would look at starting my cash builds with LGD. LGD are a team that have really struggled over their last few series, however I think they get back on track tonight vs a very poor ThunderTalk squad. LGD are much more talented across the board, and rank higher in just about all statistical categories, leading me to believe this should be a fairly straight forward win for LGD. However, lately in the LPL, there has been no such thing as a sure thing. If you believe that LGD continue to struggle, and want to take a long shot on TT, you definitely can on slate like this. I, personally, will be fading TT tonight and loading up on plenty of Shad0w, xiye and this LGD team as a whole.
Next we have what should be a very fast, high kill match between JDG and IG. IG are one of, if not the most, frustrating teams in the LPL this split.. well I guess that goes for any split. IG are squad that typically show up against the Leagues big dawgs, but don’t show up vs. the bottom of the barrell teams. Theoretically this would be a spot we would see IG at their best. However, I do not see them beating JDG tonight, especially with how well this JDG team is playing right now. IG definitely does have talent to get the job done though, and can be considered in large field GPPS. I believe IG will continue to struggle trying to adjust to having TheShy back, and you can’t afford to not be at the top of your game as a team against a team like JDG, leading me to lean towards a JDG sweep here. I expect JDG to have plenty of ownership in this one, so getting exposure to IG here and hoping they have things figured out and show up, is a viable strategy.
My predictions for tonight are as follows:
AF win 2-1; LSB win 2-1; JDG win 2-0; LGD win 2-0
Good luck tonight! Cores for both FD and DK will be posted on the site tonight.
