Hello everyone,

 

Summer Split is upon us, and since the season is just about to start I wanted to get my preseason rankings out there. I’m planning on posting a video to my youtube channel that gives a little more depth to my selections so if you are interested check out my channel! No to the preseason rankings!

 

10.   CLG

9.   Echo Fox

8.   Clutch Gaming

7.   Optic

6.   100T

5.   FlyQuest

4.   Golden Guardians

3.   Team Liquid

2.   TSM

1.   C9

 

I think the regular season is going to be very competitive for the first few weeks so expect a lot of moving around from the teams in the standings. I especially think 6-10 to be really exciting this split. No team got worse in the off-season which should make for a competitive Summer Split! Let me know in the comments who you think is going to win summer and who you think will finish last. Have a great day.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another picks post. So far since I started the picks (week 5) I’m a pretty decent 20-10. Hopefully I can have another week where I go a few games over .500. Here are this weeks picks.

 

Saturday March 9th

Matchup                                               Winner

Golden Guardians vs CLG                  Golden Guardians

C9 vs TL                                          C9

TSM vs 100T                                   TSM

Clutch vs FlyQuest                           FlyQuest

Echo Fox vs Optic                            Optic

Sunday March 10th

Matchup                                             Winner

TL vs Golden Guardians                   TL

FlyQuest vs Echo Fox                       FlyQuest

Optic vs TSM                                  TSM

100T vs C9                                     C9

CLG vs Clutch                                 CLG

 

Most of the games I think will be pretty one sided the games that I think will be truly close are Golden vs CLG, C9 vs TL, and the Optic vs TSM games. I think Optic matches up really well against TSM in terms of early aggressive junglers who like to play around bot and top, and a mid who can at least stand up to Bjerg for an extended time. Should be some fun games and since 7 teams are within one game of each other a 2-0 week will be huge for those teams.

Someone commented on my YouTube channel if I could post updated positional rankings. Since recording 5 separate videos for that would take a little more time than I have at the moment I figured I could simply post them here. So I’ll go position by position and I’ll rank the players on how I feel like the rank in comparison to their opposition. Let’s get to it!
