Spring 2016 Starters Discussion + Week 5 Analysis (Who Do You Start Week 6?)

Nural·2/17/2016, 5:03:55 PM·3 votes·1,642 views

Hi there!

Ok, so the purpose of this forum is exactly what the title describes, to help people set up their best line up possible heading into the next week of games. We've all experienced a moment where we are choosing between two players, not sure which one will have the better turn-out with regards to their current match-ups, their record, if their on a losing streak, new subs of the team, etc. This can now become a place where the fantasy community can help each other out with their rosters so that they are receiving their full potential each and every week. This can also be a place to discuss possible Add/Drop possibilities.

Just simply post a question about who you are deciding between, along with your reasonings behind why you should and shouldn't start them. Then hopefully a fellow fantasy community member will be able to respond and help you make your decision. Anyone can help out! Multiple opinions and beliefs are better than just one! Remember, Strength in numbers.

Disclaimer: Human beings cannot foresee the future, everything posted on here are just calculated predictions/opinions.

Hopefully this now provides a means for all of us as a community to help each other in achieving the glorious 1st place spot in your respected leagues, along with the entitled sensation of "Bragging Rights." Best of luck to all of you! #FantasyLCS #DecisionsAreHard


Week 6 Sleepers

  1. FNC:

Now some will argue that FNC is too "Good" of a team to be considered a sleeper, but regardless of terminology, I like FNC this week. Ever since the LCS has moved to Patch 6.2, FNC has been scoring very well, (not to mention they are 3-1). They face off against G2 and SPLYCE. Splyce is the no brainer here, but the G2 game will be harder to manage for FNC. But here is why I'm liking FNC as a fantasy team as of late, There games have been higher kill games. Even in that game against UOL in which they lost, they still were able to get 11 kills total, which is pretty impressive when on the losing end in the LCS. I think the G2 match will be bloody, regardless if FNC wins or loses.

  1. CLG

While the game against TSM last week might have hurt the pride and soul of both CLG Fans and Fantasy Owners alike, this week should be much different. They face off against NA's punching bag REN and an aggressive TIP. CLG is clearly the better team between these two. They should stomp that of renegades, and TIP will be sure to match what ever aggression is being thrown at them. CLG is looking to have a bloody week this week.

  1. C9

Now promise me you'll all take this with a grain of salt, and ill also try to do the same. But the fact of the matter is, C9 is in practically the same boat as that of FNC. I dont know what it is about 6.2, but since then, C9 has been playing in very, VERY high kill games. Not to mention, they are also 3-1 since 6.2 came out. While I want to say its time to jump all aboard the C9 hype train, I still need to see them in action for one more week before I present my ticket to the conductor. But if you are having issues finding a good fill in this week, C9 is not your worst option at the moment. Get em while there hot.


The FUNTASY League

For all of those who are participating in a Funtasy League, Here comes your new, week 6 constraint! So far, we've had...

Week 1: Who ever had the most kills won. Week 2: The Checkerboard. Week 3: Who ever had the most Assists. Week 4: The Roster-Swap Week 5: Root for the Underdogs!

Week 6 Constraint:

Week 6 is both a roster AND a win condition constraint.

This week, you may only start NA players. No EU whatsoever. NA! NA! NA!

The player whose team has the HIGHEST CS AMOUNT wins the week. Points don't matter, only CS does. (What does CS mean? It means Creep Kills. A.k.a Minions).

GL GL! :D


I host a weekly Fantasy LCS analysis show every Wednesday at 8 PM CST! Tune in for savvy fantasy discussion and all thing hilarity. :D

Hey guys, I need some help with my roster. Any and all feedback is appreciated.

My Team:

Top: Kikis Jung: Rudy Mid: Froggen ADC: FORG1VEN Supp: Hybrid Flex: Keith Team: UOL Alts: kfo | Dardoch | Jensen

Opponent's Team:

Top: Odoamne Jung: Xmithie Mid: Febiven ADC: Doublelift Supp: kaSing Flex: Steeelback Team: FNC Alts: Shook | Balls | GBM

Free Agents:

Top: Atom | Billyboss | Cabochard | Feng | Flaresz | fredy122 | Lourlo | sOAZ | Steve | Wunderwear Jung: Airwaks | BetongJocke | Crumbz | Gilius | Hard | Kirei | Moon | Procxin | Trashy Mid: Alex Ich | Betsy | Eika | Pirean | PowerOfEvil | Sencux | Shiphtur | xPePii ADC: Adryh | Apollo | Freeze | Hjarnan | Kobbe | Mash | Tabzz | Zven Supp: Big | extinkt | G0DFRED | Gate | Hakuho | Kiwikid | Klaj | KonKwon | Matt | Mithy | Nisbeth | sprattel Team: CLG | FOX | EL | G2 | GIA | TL | OG | REN | ROC | SPY | DIG | TiP | VIT

My Thoughts: My main concern is about my Flex position. I'm not sure if I should start Keith, Hjarnan, Zven, or Jensen. The last time Keith played against TL in week 2, Keith exploded for 28.22 pts, and he also got 24.77 pts against TiP in week 1. Although TiP have improved from week 1, I still think the match will be pretty bloody, and Keith might rack up some big points. Jensen—and the rest of C9—have been playing much better these past two weeks, and Jensen looks pretty tempting to start at the Flex spot; the only thing holding me back, however, is the fact that C9 got pummeled by TSM the last time they played. Hjarnan and Zven do not look very good this week, since both are playing against H2K, but I'm wondering if I should still pick one of them up over Keith, since FOX has a pretty tough schedule after week 6. If I should pick one of them up, who should it be, and should I pick them up this week or next week?

Thanks for taking the time to read this. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.

I have a blessing of a problem. I own Visiscaci and Kikis for top as well as Trick and Rudy for jungle. I can only play three of these with one at flex so my question is which one do i bench?

http://fantasy.na.lolesports.com/en-US/league/910475/roster#6,2552050

Top: Vizicsacsi
Jung: Rush
Mid: Febiven
ADC: Keith
Supp: Klaj
Flex: Kikis
Team: Elements

Bench: Shiphtur, Xmithie, Hjarnan

Available:
Top: KFO, Steve, Feng
Jung: Hard, Shook, Gilius, Kirei
Mid: Betsy (he's pretty consistent despite ROCCAT always losing), Pirean, Sencux, Eika, xPepii, Alex Ich
ADC: Freeze, Tabzz, Adryh, Kobbe
Support: Kasing, Gate

Hm, Xmithie has a much easier schedule but Rush is more of a carry-style jungler, netting him more potential points over Xmithie (who usually plays utility and tanks)

I put Kikis in as Flex 'cuz he's a huge pointmaker as a toplaner, but there's always Hjarnan who could suddenly go off. I also have Shiphtur, although I dunno about DIG's matchups (had to drop Selfie 'cuz he isn't starting, I'm kind of sad).

Hey Nural!

This week i only have two questions.

  1. Should i go Xsmithie or trick. - I feel trick as he is overall better jg points wise and xsmithie isn't the best point scorer
  2. Should i go with piglet or forgivenere. I have put fox on my flex so i need to choose between these two. Piglet is personally better i think but matchups tell me forgivenere but idk any advice guys would be helpful thanks
