Welcome back, another day another guide! Today is an interesting day as our choices aren’t exactly amazing when it comes to teams that are playing three series. I want to take a different approach from yesterday where I only used two teams and try and stay diverse like I said I would. Today’s three series teams are
Secret, Alliance, Newbee, Mineski, Chaos, and
Keen Gaming.
Let us take a look at each teams and each player’s season averages and TI averages:

MY PICKS FOR DAY THREE!
As I said earlier and yesterday I try to keep my lineup as diverse as possible and today I am going to stick to this philosophy.
In my core slots I am going for
Nisha & Old Chicken. Despite Nisha’s less eventful start in his first game on day one, he really put it back together and has put up quite a lot of points throughout. My decision to go with Old Chicken is because he has performed extremely well even against top fantasy point makers; TNC. If he can keep it up and score some major points I won't be surprised.
For mid, I am going with
CCnC. At the time of writing this article, he is currently sitting at the top of average score for any mid player. Newbee are playing much better than expected and their day three match-ups are certainly winnable. With three series coming up I think this is a big chance for CCnC to put up great numbers.
My supports are a bit expected as they sit towards the top on the average table. Therefore, I am going with
Taiga and
Pieliedie. It was a close call between
Puppey and
Taiga but the latter is averaging quite a bit more than the former that ended up making the difference on my side.
My lineup for Day Three is as follows:
Nisha
Old Chicken
CCnC
Taiga
PieLieDie
If you are looking for alternatives, then I would suggest the following:
Dark
Insania
MidOne
Puppey
I think this is a day that could very well pay off and I am confident that we can continue to put up a solid score.
