League of Legends LPL DFS Preview: Tuesday, July 21st
Strategy Refresher
In general, the 2-game strategy really doesn’t differ much from larger slates, but it is inherently difficult to create “good” unique lineups with everyone using the same player pool of 20. There is really no trend or strategic edge when it comes to these slates, so the most basic and common DFS/LOL principles will hold true. 4/3 stacks will be the most likely optimal route, with an occasional 4/2/1 with double Mid or ADC. We have seen double Tops pan out to win GPPs, so this really comes down to the contests you’re playing and how many lineups you are entering. My suggestion for anything other than MME, is take a look at the number of games.
For tomorrow, with both of these being Best of 3, I would suggest stacking 4/3 in smaller contests and only venturing into 4/2/1 or 3/3/1 with more than 10 lineups. 4/3 will guarantee the most upside if either game is swept, which is the downside of a 1 off, where they miss out on points from an entire game.
