Welcome to RotoBaller's coverage of League of Legends DFS for both FanDuel and DraftKings. Be on the lookout for coverage of the LPL, LCK, and LCS as well as we have some great analysts covering all LoL leagues for the playoffs. Today, I am focusing on the 3-game LCS/LEC slate with contests available on FanDuel and DraftKings.
We get a 2 game slate featuring one game from the LCS and one from the LEC. With it only being a 2 game slate I will only be providing analysis on one play per position and providing a secondary option.
Today I'll be bringing you my top League of Legends advice, analysis, and picks, for the slate beginning on Saturday, August 2st, 2021 at 11:00 AM EST. You can check me out on Twitter @nolanroth10 and follow me for more LOL content!

Captain
Hans Sama - RGE: Hans Sama was second for Rogue during the split in kill share and had a good series against Misfits. He is also the third most expensive ADC on DK.
Secondary Option: Tactical - TL
TOP
Alphari - TL: Alphari is the clear play at top on this slate. He consistently wins lane and TL has looked really good in the playoffs so far. Alphari has a GD10 and XPD10 of 284 and 98 while only having the counter pick 38% in the playoffs so far.
Secondary Option: Armut - MAD

JUNGLE
Inspired – RGE: Inspired went absolutely crazy last weekend racking up 40 kills in 5 games which were good for 44.4% of Rogue kills. Inspired is arguably the smartest jungler in the league and will look to carry his momentum of the last series into this matchup.
Secondary Option: Santorin - TL
MID
Larssen - RGE: Deciding between Larssen and Jensen is a tough choice and the choice ultimately came down to having Hans in the captain spot. Larssen racked up 25 kills and 37 assists last week against Misfits
Secondary Option: Jensen - TL
ADC
Hans Sama - RGE: If you haven't taken Hans Sama as captain and are using a Rogue Stack, play Hans Sama here.
Secondary Option: Tactical - TL
SUPPORT
CoreJJ- TL: CoreJJ has a 75.5% kill participation and has racked up 77 assists in 8 playoff games so far. His ability to roam the map is phenomenal and he is consistently able to help put the rest of his lanes in advantages.
Secondary Option: Trymbi - RGE
TEAM
TL: Team Liquid has looked great so far throughout the playoffs knocking off C9 and TSM already. Team Liquid has captured 59% of dragons and 73% of barons in the playoffs so far.
Secondary Option: RGE
Final Thoughts
Rogue and TL are the two sides I am rocking with tomorrow. Being this far into playoffs every matchup is going to be super close. MAD and RGE will split more of the ownership where the public is likely on TL.
