Your Spinx + Flamez combo is a good pick! I go with: Spinx - Attacker mezii - Support wOnderful - Camper YEKINDAR - Eco Friendly rain - HS Machine I decided to go with 2-1-1-1 because the last time work really well (top5% in Groups C & D of Pro League). I once haved iM and hunter, but for better roles and don't too picked, i changed to rain + wOnderful. Good luck!
So the m80 draft from last video got me 10 fantasy points lmao. Going with monesy niko jks yekinder and cadian. Instantly chicken out of vitality game. I think yekinder form is recovering and will continue to do so under this liquid.
that is 10 more points than i got! this is such an insane draft but kudos to you for it. honestly, a draft with both monesy and niko that isnt full of bronze IGLs is incredibly impressive!
currently wonderful, im, mezii, jks, naf. I was 2-1-1-1 before you mentioned the playoffs thing so thanks for that. not too hopeful about how many points I can get with my 2 liquid picks but naf seems to have a good eco friendly role so fingers crossed.
there's definitely still viability to 2-1-1-1 just cause of the groups into playoff format giving more games than just a playoff format, but for a top 10% i think 2-2-1 is must go. naf did nothing for me in epl groups so hope he does better for you here!
I got top 61% and am annoyed because I almost picked iM instead of hunter which would've put me in the 30s or 40s. For this draft, I'm still debating on what I do but I want to hear your thoughts on what I have so far. I'm considering iM, wonderful, ultimate, mezii and snappi (with chicken booster against Navi). I know it's a 2-1-1-1 but I feel like this might have serious potential. I could also swap in Twistzz + b1t instead of wonderful + ultimate, I'm just not sure if a 2-1-1-1 is that much worse than a 2-1-1.
so long as snappi doesn't tank too badly it can definitely work, any NAVI combo that isn't based around 2 of jL/iM/aleksi is good i feel. b1t will be very underpicked and Twistzz also performed great at EPL, so i actually quite like that combo!
@@lucycasts I decided to switch to wonderful, jl, snappi, spinx and mezii. After a bit more thought, I realized that I'm not confident enough in Liquid for this event to justify spending on Twistzz or ultimate. Now that I said that, I think we know what'll happen haha
Hey Lucy, what do you think about my fantasy? I think that you won´t be happy from my pick two IGLs sh1ro - AWP chopper - Eco friendly jL - Attacker mezii - Support Aleksib - Leader Good Luck!
i like to avoid double IGL however i think sh1ro can make up for it here, but it really hinges on how well mezii performs i feel! otherwise you rely a lot on two players, where many drafts will have at least 3 strong performers. will pay off if spirit bounce back!
Hey! Same thought process on my side too, I picked a VERY similar team: Spinx, flamez, aleksib, iM, yekindar. I tried to put together a draft with ultimate as the 5th, but I just can't make it work. :/
I went for a riskier draft. Rocking Apex Flamez JL IM and snax. I really need snax to not tank the points, but otherwise I got 3 heavy hitters and apex is pretty good as an IGL
hey lucy! i coinfliped to your squad, but with iM and it ended up on top 50% somehow i go with ultimate, yekindar, jL, wonderful, chopper draft (gonna use chicken on liquid spirit match for chopper) navi still looks insane, liquid can win against spirit and since vitality now looks worse than on cologne (apex back to being mid) , i hope they can win against them too
if only i had listened :D i like your approach here a lot, this will be a very solid draft should liquid top the group! biggest risk is getting 2nd in group b, so that vita/liquid game will be everything
I went iM, jL, mezii, flameZ and Snappi. I'm hoping mezii and flameZ can be good differentials together with the safe picks of jL and iM. Snappi is obviously just there to faciliate the rest of the team but I'm hoping he can get close to 0 points with roles and boosters. I don't think the jump from picking a Chopper or similar is worth the price difference.
I'm probably going to be stupid here, my last one ended horribly :') BUT I'm gonna support G2 on this one! Revenge arc (I really dislike the amount of hate they get on hltv atm) I wish astralis started in an 'easier' event, I would love to pick them :/ I ended up with spinx/mezii/hunter/malbs/karrigan imo very all-round, I do see a possibility of a G2 stunt, and I will use my chicken on karrigan 1st game 🤣
honestly not that bad, i think thats the right combo from both teams, but skipping NAVI is super risky! came back to bite me last event, so best of luck!
Top 4% and I had two Mongolz players :) iM and W0nderful carried my roster. For Blast I drafted b1t, W0nderful, mezii, jks and Yekindar. I have a feeling Liquid beats Spirit and maybe even Vitality. Yekindar might cost me but I can't afford anyone else while going this hard on Navi.
God I want to pick the Astralis players so bad seeing how cheap they are 😅 jabbi for 189k??? At first I thought it was a round robin within groups and if it was so, perhaps I would actually consider taking someone from this team, but if their opening match is vs Vitality into (likely) an elimination match then I'm out :/
jL / iM / Spinx / mezii / karrigan for me. Karrigan chicken out vs g2, then he wins against falcons which puts him against 2nd of group b and that will be spirit or liquid and i don‘t think its impossible for faze to win against one of them. And id not, i have some boosters left to maybe reduce damage because I first used chicken out
I'm going with spinx/mezii/jL/wonderful/snappi. In an event where falcons are 90% likely to play only two games one of which is getting wiped by the chicken booster I think this better than being forced to have Aleksi or apex and miss out on having 4 players who can go all the way while still having good rating
this is very nice! you win out no matter which team ends up taking the grand final. hopefully snappi doesn't cost you too much in the loser game, but with good booster and role you might not even go negative on him. love it!
i took a risk with taking jL/iM/ropz/rain/Snax i took Snax to get more money freed up for the double heavy hitter from NaVi and im hoping for VIT and Spirit pickers to fail in playoffs, and i believe that with these picks, i can get a good playoff run with FaZe/NaVi finals, and G2 getting through semis, which would definetely be the best case scenario team points wise, + the roles and boosters are quite good

gg lucy, I actually won the EPL Playoffs fantasy, my EF gamble and the Navi safe picks made it happen.
omg well done!! huge congrats, what a gamble!
Poggers man, wp!
Your Spinx + Flamez combo is a good pick!
I go with:
Spinx - Attacker
mezii - Support
wOnderful - Camper
YEKINDAR - Eco Friendly
rain - HS Machine
I decided to go with 2-1-1-1 because the last time work really well (top5% in Groups C & D of Pro League).
I once haved iM and hunter, but for better roles and don't too picked, i changed to rain + wOnderful. Good luck!
this is great just because you've managed to completely avoid any IGLs! that's actually super impressive :D

@lucycasts definitely crazy 🤪 only reason why I'm doing it is as you've said lol!

Hey Lucy, what do you think about my fantasy?
I think that you won´t be happy from my pick two IGLs
sh1ro - AWP
chopper - Eco friendly
jL - Attacker
mezii - Support
Aleksib - Leader
Good Luck!

Hey! Same thought process on my side too, I picked a VERY similar team:
Spinx, flamez, aleksib, iM, yekindar.
I tried to put together a draft with ultimate as the 5th, but I just can't make it work. :/
this is probably a better take on mine really, i just felt i had to step outside the iM/jL pick. logic should still be sound, i like :)
I went for a riskier draft. Rocking Apex Flamez JL IM and snax.
I really need snax to not tank the points, but otherwise I got 3 heavy hitters and apex is pretty good as an IGL
definitely risky with both apex and snax, good luck!
hey lucy!
i coinfliped to your squad, but with iM and it ended up on top 50% somehow
i go with ultimate, yekindar, jL, wonderful, chopper draft (gonna use chicken on liquid spirit match for chopper)
navi still looks insane, liquid can win against spirit and since vitality now looks worse than on cologne (apex back to being mid) , i hope they can win against them too
if only i had listened :D

flamez definitely gives you the edge here, just have to pray he performs better than spinx after an event slump!
I'm probably going to be stupid here, my last one ended horribly :')
BUT I'm gonna support G2 on this one! Revenge arc (I really dislike the amount of hate they get on hltv atm)
I wish astralis started in an 'easier' event, I would love to pick them :/

@@lucycasts Yeah I'm just not feeling na'vi tbh, they played well, but somehow it feels like they didn't, I have no clue why :')
Top 4% and I had two Mongolz players :) iM and W0nderful carried my roster.
For Blast I drafted b1t, W0nderful, mezii, jks and Yekindar. I have a feeling Liquid beats Spirit and maybe even Vitality. Yekindar might cost me but I can't afford anyone else while going this hard on Navi.
you will most certainly be one of the only people to go b1t w0nderful, i actually kinda rate it for the uniqueness alone!
I actually tried a zywoo lineup(hoping he will be 1.30+ rating)
Aleksib
Apex
Chopper(I still think Spirit will win vs liquid)
iM
Zywoo
GL!
triple IGL :D
can definitely work, but massively hinges on zywoo. if apex plays like he did in epl groups you might be onto a good run tho!
God I want to pick the Astralis players so bad seeing how cheap they are 😅 jabbi for 189k???
At first I thought it was a round robin within groups and if it was so, perhaps I would actually consider taking someone from this team, but if their opening match is vs Vitality into (likely) an elimination match then I'm out :/
they might even end up playing with ruggah so i'd 100% avoid despite the prices!
jL / iM / Spinx / mezii / karrigan for me.
Karrigan chicken out vs g2, then he wins against falcons which puts him against 2nd of group b and that will be spirit or liquid and i don‘t think its impossible for faze to win against one of them. And id not, i have some boosters left to maybe reduce damage because I first used chicken out
This is like the only draft that sits well with me.
very much like this, karrigan hasn't been doing that terrible either. super strong navi/vita combo!
I'm going with spinx/mezii/jL/wonderful/snappi. In an event where falcons are 90% likely to play only two games one of which is getting wiped by the chicken booster I think this better than being forced to have Aleksi or apex and miss out on having 4 players who can go all the way while still having good rating
this is very nice! you win out no matter which team ends up taking the grand final. hopefully snappi doesn't cost you too much in the loser game, but with good booster and role you might not even go negative on him. love it!

this is one of the more risky drafts! but at least you've got 4 good fraggers, and if faze finally wake up you'll have an unmatched draft. gl!
jL / iM / Spinx / mezii / karrigan for me.
