As we move into the third day of matches, our featured slate has two of the best teams in the Play-In stage facing off against winless squads. What will make the difference here is the security of your picks as well as finding the players most likely to have breakout performances. Each match is crucial when determining the seeding and lessening the load moving on to the group stage of play. Who set themselves up for that push? Let’s dive in and find out!

 


 

Game #1: Evil Geniuses (-600) v Chiefs Esports Club (+385)

Game Breakdown: Even with two losses on their record, the Chiefs have not looked terrible in their first two games this tournament. Their brightest light has to be the jungler, Arthur, who has put in decent work against both Fnatic and Detonation FocusMe. Unfortunately for Arthur and the Chiefs, Inspired (jungler) is one of the strongest pieces in the Evil Geniuses lineup. I would watch for EG to try and get their young mind-laner (joiopyun) on a playmaking champion. He looked great on his Akali pick on Friday and I expect to see more of this on Saturday. 

Favorite Picks: jojopyun (EG: $10,800/$7,200), Impact (EG: $6,600), Evil Geniuses ($4,600)

Value Picks: Arthur (CHF: $6,400)

Cann’s Match Pick: Evil Geniuses  
 

Game #2: Royal Never Give Up (-2800) v Isurus (+1100)

Game Breakdown: Royal Never Give Up has looked like a team on a missing since their loss to DRX on the first day of matches. Gala has looked stout in the ADC role and someone I think most other teams have to gameplan for. I loved seeing the RNG top laner (Breathe) finally be unlocked and put onto a carry champion. There is no one on Isurus who has the same individual technical skill and it will show in the laning phase on Saturday. 

Favorite Picks: Gala (RNG: $11,700/$7,800), Breathe ($6,800), Wei ($7,200), Ming (RNG: $6,000)

Value Picks: Seiya (ISG: $6,600), 

Cann’s Match Pick: Royal Never Give Up
