EPL C&D - Free runs for MOUZ & VITA but a lot of DARK HORSES!

[@iKellerleiche]

Thx for the great video! I am going for NAF, JDC, siuhy, flamez and dav1deus. Good luck!

[@lucycasts]

i hope dav1deus pays off!

[@juliusmutschler7126]

I am going with Suihy, Jimmy, Fallen, NAF, and jks. Pretty happy with that lineup! :)

[@lucycasts]

very nice, when furia upsets vitality you will look a genius :)

[@leonnestestog2562]

I really like your HEN1 pick, great player that can get upwards of 50 points even without qualifying if he plays well Easiest choice for me was NAF. Liquid have looked mostly great and NAF is a 215k+ player usually. Yeki is a nice second option bc everyone else going JKS. I also took Brollan and stavn as great players that can win games on their own when they pop off. And stole HEN1 :D a lot of good luck to you, crazy good to get top 35% with zontix over someone like malbs or jL!

[@lucycasts]

yeah NAF is most certainly the no-brainer liquid pick. i was really surprised he wasn't in the top 8 picks, i guess it's because people are overinvesting in vita/mouz and don't have the money. more points for the rest of us!

[@jacekkomp5774]

@@lucycasts i also have naf just feel bad that i have yekindar i could pick jks and have 3k$ in pocket ;p

[@JustKjell321]

I can agree on pretty much everything, but I still think apex, for the opponents they're playing, will probably be worth his overpricing since he can be dirty in these kinds of games, but it's a gamble about who's feeling the farm on that moment xD I'm too spooked to go for the 'bigger' underdogs, but I also don't want the most basic team I ended up taking apex/spinx/suihy to be 'safe', and paired them up with jabbi and staehr (I really wanted to avoid br0 :')) gl :D

[@lucycasts]

i think you'll be good with the double astralis, strong point of difference!

[@Manuwu]

a fellow HEN1 believer, he will deliver for us.

[@lucycasts]

praying!

[@btrams]

after going top 50% with jottAA + aleksi chopper sh1ro iM, im gonna step on that same rake again and go with siuhy, apEX, dav1deuS, Spinx and torzsi. chalk but i cant miss out on those sweet sweet padding points. last time we've seen apEX he did really well at cologne and im hoping he could farm some lower level teams.

[@lucycasts]

knowing my luck apex will post a 1.40 rating average :D hope i haven't sold you down the river on both jottaa and dav1deuS!

[@btrams]

@@lucycasts im blaming the failure on spirit, not jottAAA :D

[@btrams]

@@lucycasts it's already over 😭 your booster tips really helped last time though, hit most of them for the first time in a while

[@Hydra48]

I ended up with top 38%, I did not think Spirit would be my downfall. I'm going with xertion, siuhy, spinx, apex and hen1. It was hard for me to find a draft I liked because I believe in Mouz/Vit a lot more than any of the other teams. Having 2 IGLs sucks, but it was almost impossible to find a decent team with 2 mouz and 2 vit without 2 IGL.

[@chibifirestorm]

matys for 201k is good, he carries fnatic with blameF

[@lucycasts]

yeah definitely, my only concern is falloff if fnatic get stomped out, but agree at 201k there's a lot of potential

[@nwgverified]

Switched to spinx, hen1, xertion, naf and nython. Hopefully nython does alright.

[@matik_k21]

samey kinda screwed me, but still top 34% from group a and b i might go with spinx, apex, stavn, staehr and skullz anti mouz draft, furia/falcons has nice bracket, so that's why i go with skullz

[@matik_k21]

i also think about getting spinx, mezii, stavn, br0 and hen1 but i kinda don't have faith in red canids as a team, gonna have to decide eventually

[@lucycasts]

i think hen1 has a lot more potential than skullz is the thing, even if furia do well i don't feel he will get a lot of points. tho stavn/staehr is a better combo. my 2c!

[@matik_k21]

@@lucycasts yeah, im gonna just solve this one with a coinflip looool

[@ambozz3726]

I would absolutely love to have the cojones to draft blameF, MATYS, dav1deus, HEN1 and torzsi. It's an absurd amount of firepower with players that regularly deliver top performances, even in losses. But padding points are king, so I'm not going there. It's so cool, though!

[@jackoberto01]

I got Top 10% but could've been much better if I didn't go for chopper. Was top 1-5% up until pretty much the last MIBR v G2 game. Almost wanna go for Stavn and Br0. Maybe just because they carried me last pro league to a really good finish last pro league.

[@lucycasts]

yeah they add all the padding after the last game i think, so it's kinda hard to know exactly where you'll land. br0 feels a bit risky, a lot of red recently, tho against tough opponents!

[@robertoseijas6657]

I ended top 6% taking aleskiB,iM, rain, magixx and hunter. So far I have siuhy, brollan, Twistzz, jabbi and apex. Although I’m probably going to change that in the next hour lol

[@nwgverified]

I didn't see the hen1 pricing before, that's crazy. I think I will go blamef, siuhy, brollan, naf and hen1 instead. I'm curious to see how many points blamef can farm in the lower bracket.

[@lucycasts]

do report back, i tried to do some drafts with him but couldn't quite find one i liked. feel like he's definitely delivering 100+ points...

[@huhmit]

right now my picks look like spinx, apex, siuhy, xertion, hen1, but I've also messed around with 2 vitality + mouz, liquid, astralis etc

[@lucycasts]

lot of firepower!

[@ilikeeatingkitty]

i think jabbi for 203,000 is a great pickup as well... over mezii if you want to go anti vitality :DD

[@lucycasts]

yeah for sure, mezii is just a lot safer i think. it's kinda like hunter from last event - do i want to miss out on the vitality stomp for the potential of jabbi popping off? personally not as i have taken a risk with hen1 already :D

[@Rayechel]

I did something similar with Ultimate NAF, Mezii, siuhy, and Hen1. I think Ultimate is going to continue destroying (Next simple?) and will net good points for price

[@nwgverified]

I got top 9% with my stanislaw, sh1ro, maj3r, iM and jL draft. Luckily the overperformance of jL and iM cancelled out sh1ro's underperformance.

[@leonnestestog2562]

maj3r was such a nice budget choice gj man nice top 9%

[@lucycasts]

actually super impressive you were able to do this with stanislaw, very well done!

[@M4RCi92]

You constructed an absolutely bulletproof team, Lucy. We both think the same way about HEN1. Even the try comparison was the same as I first looked at the guy, hahaha. I don't agree with your spinx analysis though, I think nothing will stop him from utterly destroying the teams VIT will play. And call me crazy, but against this opposition, I actually prefer apEX to mezii. He's super aggro and he has some filthy pop off games while spinx, flamez and zywoo are just going to clean house before mezii makes contact with the enemy team. I built two teams, what do you think? A) apex, SPINX***, siuhy, xertion, hen1 - yeah, 2 IGLs, but they're looking at a pretty easy route to the group finals. B) naf, yekindar, siuhy, jimpphat, hen1 - only 1 IGL, so better firepower here, but no VIT member here.

[@lucycasts]

your analysis is definitely correct, it just comes back to my philosophy of not wanting to follow the majority of drafts so finding alternative ways to play the same teams :) i may be making a mistake not getting apex, but then again, i was right to avoid chopper, so who knows! i think team B is much stronger, first team has the 3 lowest rated players from the top 2 teams. i think if you're using the argument you have about apex over mezii, you probably don't wanna then get mezii too :D there will be like 100 teams max with jimi surely, so i kinda rate the pick!

[@M4RCi92]

@@lucycasts fair points. I wrote mezii instead of spinx in the A team LMAO. I also think B is better though, so no biggie. I actually locked that team in this morning. Best of luck to you, cheers!

[@Trylaff]

Spinx - Attacker apEX - Leader xertioN - Multi Fragger floppy - Support HEN1 - Camper Spinx for 215k is really good. apEX performed well in Cologne, better even of mezzi, and Vitality run is too easy. Because that i chose him + Leader role. Vita lost 5 rounds for Furia last time; none chance for them lost a map, maybe vs Liquid in upper final, but maybe. xertioN, for the same you said: better chance to perform because his role and don't too picked as torzi. Complexity are in better form of Astralis, and floppy, for 189k, same price of JT, i could't pass it. And HEN1, as you said, perform well even in the losses, and Red could uppset VP.

[@lucycasts]

great team, i like the floppy pick over siuhy, gives your team a nice edge and complexity have a good run. might like this even more than my own draft! :D

[@a.........]

@@Trylaff jt > floppy imo

[@a.........]

Xertion - Siuhy / Jks / Spinx / Dav1deus pretty similar draft, might change later because i do not think davideus will perform vs eu teams

[@lucycasts]

ya that's my concern with him and why i lean more to hen1 (price obviously a big reason in my drafts case too)

[@quincylinder9738]

i tried siuhy xertion last time and he got a .67 in the last match. Since i got top 16% im hail marrying with fnatic. So i got krimz, blameF, Naf, Twistzz, and siuhy. Im hoping blame can pop off and make it to the upper finals because complexity is probably just going to collapse as per usual since 2024

[@lucycasts]

you have 3 huge point farmers and krimz can definitely pop off (and definitely won't be very picked). love the approach!

[@quincylinder9738]

@@lucycasts Its coming together nicely! blame with a 1.3 and krimz with a 1.2 and Col lost to m80, im currently top 7%. Sadly bombed my boosters or it would be higher, and Naf was mid

[@quincylinder9738]

@@lucycasts goddamnit i spoke to soon. Actually cant believe they lost to m80, those maps were so damn close, now their screwed with mouz and col in the same bracket

[@lun444]

I had torzsi/siuhy/naf/mezii/jt before seeing this video. Never seen Red Canids play but I'll buy your hype on them because I'm not excited about the JT pick in the slightest. I landed on the same team as you but I think torzsi is better than xertion so I picked him instead. Found nothing good to do with the 3k, NAF has just been outdoing Twistzz since he became IGL, think their prices should be the other way around.

[@lucycasts]

okay but don't get mad at me if they completely flop out, has to be noted they have minimal experience vs EU! (tho the individual players obviously have lots!) i also kinda agree on torzsi but i like to metagame based on popular picks which leans to be xertion :)

[@jacekkomp5774]

If you wanna pick risky player why not go for someone who will have at least 2 good matchups and have realy good role(hs and smg imho best). In this fantasy i was thinking of low risk jks (hs)192k bro 189k (hs).Mid risk skullz 184k(hs) Snappi 182k (smg). High risk Vini 180k (hs or smg) or noway 189k(hs) first game vs Big if lose rooster if again if lose weakest team from com, fnatic, astr, m80 if they win you can chicken if you feel like mouz on fire and they will still play 2 more games vs teams that they have min 1/3 for win. And i like Naf pick same with xertion gl

[@michalnguyen8526]

Hello lucy, I tried to create a fantasy with players that aren´t in the most picked players and I created this: NAF - Eco friendly siuhy - Leader blameF - Statshunter jks - Support MATYS - HS Machine What do you think about my fantasy? And I'm not sure with blameF´s role and MATYS´S role [because blameF has a lot % on role Statshunter and a lot % on role Attacker] (because MATYS has a lot % on role HS Machine and a lot % on role Multi Fragger) Can help me with my a little problem ?

[@lucycasts]

i think HS Machine is better than Multi Fragger for an underdog team, as even if the team or individual does badly, it can still activate, whereas multi requires the player to have a good game. stathunter is fine for blamef!

[@Vladd.7]

statshunter and hs machine

[@cubiw]

what do you think about my draft? jimpphat siuhy hen1 blamef and jks

[@lucycasts]

very nice, jimmy will be underpicked and always performs, blamef is a farmer, and you should end up with decent points from the others
