SPLIT PREDICTIONS


    EUROPE.

10. MYM
          

Yeah... No comment.



9.Giants

Solo Queue style play and solo carrying are what the Giants have owed their games to, but against top teams they just haven't had any impact. They seem to use the 'bang your head into the was over and over and hope it breaks' strategy.



8. ROCCAT

We've all heard the promises of how good this team is one paper with star carries like nukeduck and woolite, consistent supporting players like Vander and the metophorical 'cherry on top' jungler i.e - Jankos. However, they just haven't performed. Team communication has been the prime reason for this short cumming. ROCCAT's late game is quite simply atrocious and while they have plenty of 'room to improve' so do their competition.In fact, their competition has already shown some improvement.

7. Copenhagen Wolves. 

The Copenhagen Wolves have shown miraculous improvement through the split, if you function this improvement at the constant rate they would be way higher in this league; However, I don't predict this will be the case.

6. Elements.

To be perfectly honest with you, I wanted to to put Elements and The wolves at a sixth place tie. Unfortunately 6th place is the cutoff for playoff teams, and it felt like somewhat of a sissy move to be on the fence. The former CLG.eu is pulling a CLG.NA, swapping out enough players and create enough 'potential' of an electron spring. Though, somewhere in my stomach, I feel elements is the sort of team to step up when it counts (pls no Kabum jokes).

5.Unicorns of Love

Everybodies' new favorite team. It's a beautfiul gimmick really: 1. Make silly name. 2. Let fans underestimate you. 3. proceed to see their jaws drop as you decimate your enemy.
Unicorns has shown to be one of those teams that 'play to the level of their opponents' and I think will have a well deserved top 4 spot in playoffs.

4.H2K

They have some how been completely overlooked by everybody. They're just this name that occupies one of the games of the week. H2K however is one of the top teams in the EU lcs. The addition of KaSing seems to have really got some communication going. Ryu's rekindled flame has seemed to also carry them through many hard fought games.

3. Gambit Gaming.
Mosc 0-5 has had the highest quality games of the League at the moment. All their games are the best mix of crisp and sloppy and right now, their momentum seems unstoppable


2. SK Gaming
Yeah, maybe SK should be first. or maybe not. Their playstyle has seemed to completely stagnate. Many top teams have figured them out and just won the game in Picks and Bans.


1. Fnatic.
Solid play. Sums up Fnatic. During team fights they have rarely shown any weakness. Reignover completely carries them through the laning phaze and their mid-late game teamfights seems to hive mind and destroy. Not to mention- Huni <3.

LCS EUROPE: Game predictions 




Hot Games of the Week.


UOL vs ROCCAT



Winner: ROCCAT 

Call me a bandwagoner, but Roccat has sold me;Jankos seems to be as good as ever, Nukeduck has been consistent and it's botlane has been impeccable. Their only week point seems to be Overpow, who, when compared to the other toplaners of the league just doesn't seem to measure up. Even worse is the fact that he's up against Viziscaci; the top lane BEAST currently for UOL. 

However, I think if it keep the other lane's winning and that top lane in control, Roccat can make clearer mid-late game calls and bring it home.




H2K vs ROCCAT



Winner: H2K


WHAAT? I call H2K fan" say most of you right now. Well, this is more of a gut feeling. H2K has for almost all of it's games gotten the early game lead. They have some of the best solo lane names in the business and Pr0lly as an analyst. THAT SOUNDS BLOODY PERFECT. I don't understand how they throw so much. Their vision control mistakes should be easy fixes and their mechanics should carry them through teamfights.

FANTASY LCS - Top Picks.

           It's that time of year again boys and girls. The LCS, teams battling teams all of spring. And along with it comes the revamped Fantasy LCS. Which two new teams as an addition to the LCS there are so many choices.
          
This list will give you my top preference for each position. HERE GOES! 

Marksman/ADC.

The ADC is the role that will rack you up the most points over time. Choosing a good consistent AD carry is the key here, on that worries about their KDA as much as you do. Last year , Doublelift racked up the most points out of any player with his farm heavy - strong laning style. I expect this year to be the same- so if you're lucky enough to get your hands on DLift you already have an edge over your fantasy friends

However, not everybody is so lucky - here are some other Marksman I think will excel in the KDA rack up for NA as well as EU from Best ---> Worst


1. Rekkles-----> 2. WildTurtle ---->3. SneakyCastro----> 





4.Forg1ven.-----> 5. P1inoy.


Middle Lane.


           The second most point gathering position. Mids is often known to be the most mechanically challenging lane for 1v1s and of course the lane that often has the most kills. Especially , with assassin meta comps with LeBlanc , Zed , Jayce and Syndra. You'll be guaranteed to have alot of points.... that is, IF you chose the right midlaners. Here are some you can always count on to smash those KDA.


1.Froggen ---->  2. Bjergsen ----> 3.



4. Pobelter ( #hype) ----> 5. Febiven ---> 6. PowerOfEvil




TopLane




1. Balls ----> 2. Wickd ----> 3. Quas ----> 4.Calitrolz




Jungle

1.Meteos ---> 2. Shook---> 3. Svenskeren ---> 4.IWD.



Support

1.Aphromoo --->2. Xpecial --->3. LustBoy ---> 4. YellowStar
