MY PICKS FOR DAY FOUR!
The Final day of groups is normally a bit difficult to pick since the amount of games being played is less. It’s a bit more risky as each game holds a lot more weight in how well your day goes. Keeping that into consideration, my lineup is going to be the same as day two.
I am using players from only EG & VG. EG has a series against a struggling Virtus pro and an underwhelming NiP. I believe these two series have a great chance to not only have long duration games which is nice for point farming but also be favored towards EG quite a bit.
Vici Gaming have a series against two tough opponents in Na’Vi and OG, However, VG as a whole have been putting up points no matter what! At the time of writing this, Dy has the most points for all supports and Paparazi is the third highest core. That being said, I have complete faith that these two teams will perform well and give us top points for the day.
For my core, I am going for
Arteezy & Paparazi. Even with EG’s struggles Arteezy managed to get us 113.64 points (with my gold card) which was more than Paparazi who is on a team towards the top of the group. I think Arteezy will have a solid day to give us a repeat performance and Paparazi is a guarantee towards the top for the day.
For mid, I am going with
SumaiL who is second only behind Somnus! I really do believe in SumaiL for day four of groups and I do think he can keep up the numbers he is giving us at the moment. On day two, he gave us over a hundred points and with the match-ups he has today, I think he will perform relatively just as well. It won’t be over a hundred points but that is because it is only four games instead of six.
Finally, we are again lining up with
Dy and
Fly. These two are putting up some major numbers, especially Dy who is averaging the highest amount of points per game at 21.4. With these two playing in two series tomorrow it is difficult to go with any other duo as they have been not only consistent but also extremely reliable.
My line-up for Day Four is:
Paparazi
Arteezy
SumaiL
Dy
Fly
If you are looking for some alternatives, I would suggest
Ori or
ppd. Good luck on the final day and we will certainly continue towards our goal of being in the top percent to get those sweet sweet sixteen levels.
