OMG vs. FPX
GimGoon will be in the lineup for a struggling FPX team on a two-series losing streak, facing an OMG side that is also in a rough patch, losing their last three series versus some of the middle-of-the-pack teams they should have been competitive with. Substitutions can revitalize a team and give it a new look, and even though GimGoon and Khan don't have many differences in play-style, this is a welcome change. I expect this series to be a bounce-back for FPX despite their recent poor performance because the Bot, Mid and Jungle are all in their favor. Doinb is FPX's leader in both kills (96) and kill participation (76 percent) so he will be a pivotal player in any FPX stack. Lwx has the second-most kills (90) this Summer and a solid 70 percent kill participation. I expect the Mid/Jungle synergy to be on point for Doinb and Tian to bring FPX to victory.
Prediction to Win: FPX 2-0
FPX Players to Target: Tian ($7,000), Doinb ($7,600), Lwx ($7,800)
EDG vs. VG
Leyan is back in the Jungle for VG after serving his one-game suspension. VG will also be using their backup support, Maestro, so make sure these two are in your lineups when stacking VG. Both of these teams are on two-series losing

EDG vs. VG
Leyan is back in the Jungle for VG after serving his one-game suspension. VG will also be using their backup support, Maestro, so make sure these two are in your lineups when stacking VG. Both of these teams are on two-series losing streaks, so one of them will end their negative run. With it being so close, I am on the side of EDG thinking their Mid/Duo combination is much better than VG's. EDG's path to victory will be getting Scout ahead in his weak matchup again Zeka to the point where Scout can carry them to victory. Looking at EDG, Hope is far and away the kill leader this Summer with 92, with Scout the next highest at 73. In terms of kill participation, look for Jiejie to be involved in the jungle trying to get Scout and Hope to item breakpoints to take over the game.
Prediction to Win: EDG 2-1
EDG Players to Target: Scout ($7,000) Hope ($7,200) Jiejie ($6,200)
