Fantasy LCS Week 7, Who Do I Start?

Low Risk:

Altec: The EG adc continues to perform week after week averaging mid 30s in points for 2 games. You can safely expect that he'll turn in a middle of the road performance and wont harm your fantasy chances. If EG happens to do exceptional as they will quite randomly decide to do from time to time he could even put up incredible numbers, though EG has yet to have a consistent enough week to make that happen. 

Team Solo Mid: Not usually members of this list but a lot of people have shied away from them in fantasy since the start of the split and to be fair they have an equal win/loss to Milennium who often grace this list. Most importantly though TSM has one of the best possible weeks this week. They have an impeccable record against the bottom 3 teams, 2-0 against CoL, EG, and Curse and they face all 3 this super week. If your fantasy leagues are anything like mine there's probably at least Gleeb floating free. Snap up TSM members and start them this week, there's a strong chance they're going to go 3-1 at least. 

Creaton: With a few exceptions the MIL ad carry has put up some impressive numbers. He is one of the few to routinely out score Altec week after week thanks in large part to his team's tendency to have long chaotic games regardless of win or loss. This week MIL faces 3 of the easier teams in EU and the always chaotic Fnatic, anything could happen. What will happen though is Creaton scoring you plenty of points. 

Kerp: Highest scoring Fantasy player this split and MIL could go anything from 2-2 to 4-0 this week. If Kerp is a free agent or riding your bench you're just bad at fantasy LCS. 

Medium Risk:

Millenium: While Kerp and Creaton are usually huge points batteries the rest of MIL is generally quite spotty. As mentioned before however, MIL has a relatively safe super week and good potential to pull between 2 and 4 wins. The fact they may only go 2-2 this week makes the rest of the team a bit of a risk but the payoff if they manage 4 wins will be monumental. 

Edward: After their unfortunate Visa problems for London Gambit came back with a renewed fire and Edward managed to stand out among them. His play was incredible and he put up astounding numbers for a support despite Gambit ending the week 1-1. If that same fire is alive in Edward this week he could leave you swimming in fantasy points as Gambit has a decent schedule ahead of them. If they play well Gambit has a reasonable expectation of ending the week with 2-3 wins. 

High Risk:

RobertxLee: CoL continues to garner a reputation as the blue turtle shell of NA LCS taking wins off the top teams. In those wins it's almost always Robert who gets rolling in a huge way to win them the game. This week CoL has 2 strong chances for Blue Turtle Shell action, as well as an always close competition against EG. A bet on Robert could payoff if their tendency to knock games off the best of the league holds true. 

Overpow: Roccat have not looked good at all recently, I broke down why here. Despite that they have shown flashes of their old selves in their most recent games and their coach is finally in house helping them out. Roccat has the easiest super week they're going to get this week, If Veggie being in house and those flashes of Roccat are ever going to amount to anything this is the time it should happen. It's the epitome of High risk to put Overpow on your starting lineup at all but if he's ever going to payoff this split this week is the best chance of that happening.
