Today's slate in North America looks promising for fantasy purposes. I'm focusing in on TL vs. NRG and IMT vs. nV as I think both series go to Game 3 and become high scoring. CLG vs. FOX is a tough series to call, with the defending champs playing poorly and Echo Fox looking like a decent team thus far. I'm staying away from that matchup for fantasy purposes. Apex are the biggest favorites of the day (they take on Phoenix1), but this series could be very one-sided, meaning the players may not be able to match their high salaries.
Top Lane: Huni (IMT vs. nV, $7,800)
With carry champions like Irelia becoming the flavor of the meta, Huni is always the highest upside player available in NA. I actually like Seraph today as well, so the matchup carries it's share of risk, but if Huni can get ahead he will carry Immortals.
Jungle: Reignover (IMT vs. nV, $7,700)
Reignover is priced near the top of the chart for junglers, but his upside is worth -- similar to Huni's. He's always involved in the action for Immortals, whether it's ganking early or setting up kills in teamfights. Shrimp is a good option to use as well at a slightly cheaper price and in the easiest matchup of the day.
Middle Lane: Keane (APX vs. P1, $8,000)
This is the easiest matchup of the day and I'd expect Keane and Apex to have very little trouble beating Phoenix1. I'm also a fan of Fenix and GBM today; even though they're playing against each other, there should be enough fantasy points to go around.
ADC: WildTurtle (IMT vs. nV, $8,000)
I think this series goes to three games, but Immortals will win 2-1. WildTurtle should be able to carry IMT as his matchup against LOD isn't particularly worrying. LOD is a solid cheap option, but WildTurtle is the steady play. Depending on if Piglet plays, he could be another solid cheaper option, but there's no guarantee he's back in the lineup.
Support: Matt (TL vs. NRG, $7,100)
I like both sides of this matchup as I think it goes to three games, but I prefer the upside of Matt over KiWiKiD. Even if Piglet doesn't play, I think Matt should be in the thick of the action against NRG.
Team: TL vs. NRG ($3,600)
Should be a close series, but that means more objectives for both sides. I was able to fit Team Liquid into my lineup, but NRG are a fine play as well at a slightly cheaper price.
