It may just be a glitch on my part, but it seems that Doublelift is projected for 0 points, which clearly isn't realistic, anyone else having this problem?

Not sure exactly how they calculate their projected points but it seems to be based off of previous weeks and how they played against those teams earlier. Since doublelift doesn't have that data the algorithm probably just spits out 0 points.

Problem with this logic is that the players have predictions on week one without any previous games played. This is also the second week he is at 0 points, I just think it's the fact that Riot seemingly stopped giving a shit about fantasy. Atleast compared to how it was when it was new when you'd get weekly updates to roster changes and whatnot, none of those now.

It's not a new issue and definitely not because riot stopped caring. They draw week 1 predictions from the players overall inputted stats. They don't usually do this for most team subs and (i presume from past splits) Players who jump in part way through the split. They just don't have their data updated, since they weren't suppose to play this split. I'm sure riot will fix it soon, Or not since it only matter for 2 more weeks. On the boards 'psuedoQ' has a more accurate projection list you can check out if you're worried.

That may be, but I still see some tendencies of the lack of care given by Riot compared to previous splits, some basic things are not being updated, such as Stunt still being listed as a Dig member eventhough he hasn't played for them for two weeks now, they don't give us weekly roster updates anymore, so I see alot of players in my league lose points because they simply don't know wether or not a player is going to play. I wish they'd sort it out though as Fantasy is, atleast for me a great way to get motivation to follow LCS.

Now when I think of it, Stunt was a sub for Dig, and he wouldn't have had any estimated points as a Dig player, like other subs, as he wasn't going to play, but now when he is playing for P1 he has an estimated score of 66, and he had an estimation for his first week as well. So I believe that if they wanted or cared they would've sorted out projections for DL, based on that fact.

I agree they can put alot more care into fantasy. Personally I hate this splits Eu formatting and even though the boards complain they've yet to say what they could potentially do to fix it. To be completely honest I think Fantasy is dead rn, I'm in 9 leagues and maybe 1 or 2 ppl from each league are active (but no one uses chat, even for trades). Ppl still have Eu members from original draft in, let them play all their 1 series games.

But despite that, I like to see how many points i can earn. I stopped using LCS projected points early because it doesn't take into account many things, and there are more accurate projections out there. I'd recommend that. As for Stunt, he actually played 2 (maybe 3) games for DIG. The extremely high point projection last week was from these games (also accounting for P1s wins). Some subs are labeled as a 6th member and their points can be projected (ray/Broxxah) while some subs are only there just in case and have no projected points (Reginalds still a tsm sub i think). This might be the cause, but im not forsure. I agree its very lazy to not put the P1 banner behind stunt.

They have updated it now, he now has an estimate of 68 points this coming weekend of games.
