Overall Pick Record for 2023: 21-9
Pick Record from LCS 2023 Spring Week 3: 7-3
EG vs. 100T
This game will be close. Everyone on both teams has been playing well lately but EG feel like they are going to have the edge thanks to jojo finding his form again. The pick goes to EG with little confidence.
IMT vs. FLY
Unlike the first pick this one has 99% confidence (never 100%) and FlyQuest move to 7-0.
TL vs. CLG
CLG seem to be sliding and a win here would do a ton to help the confidence for this team. The problem is that TL is more talented in every position and also 3-1 in their last four games. Sorry CLG faithful, the team is dropping to 2-5 here.
DIG vs. C9
Dignitas have not shown they can win yet. Until they do, they will not be picked in any game. (This will be repeated in their other two games as well.
TSM vs. GG
A banger game to end the day with two teams rising above expectations. The focus will be on the mid lane. Can Gori overcome the years of experience of Maple? Can Maple continue to carry TSM? One of these things will be true by the end. It feels like the decider will be in the mid lane but it will ultimately be River out-jungling Bugi.
This game will be another close one but Evil Geniuses are able to match everything that Team Liquid should be able to throw them. Add in the fact that everyone should be taking jojo and FBI over Haeri and Yeon, at least for now.
This feels like an upset waiting to happen. Not because Immortals are better than Cloud9 but because Cloud9 are already looking at the TL game on Friday. Even still, the smart pick here is Cloud9, not just because of their records but because Cloud9 are just straight-up better than IMT.
It is only going to get worse for CLG as 100T will be looking to rebound after a loss against Evil Geniuses. Again, 100 Thieves are just the stronger team and CLG sadly are falling off a cliff at this point.
This is another game that feels like it could be closer than people think. The main reason why it likely won’t be is because of Prince. Not just because he is playing at an MVP level, but because Neo and Chime have really struggled to put pressure on opposing bot lanes in the early game. If this changes then maybe TSM could surprise but do not count on it.
Dignitas have not shown they can win yet. Until they do, they will not be picked in any game.
No real chance here for CLG unless they found a way to go 2-0 to start the week and have found that magic sauce they had last year.
Similarly to the first game of the day, Immortals would need to show a lot more or look for Evil Geniuses to just throw this game.
First true upset pick of the weekend. Diplex has had some issues with his champ pool and Cloud9 seem like they could lose this game. Call it a gut instinct. Team Liquid are only growing and helping Haeri and Yeon find their confidence. They outdraft C9 and find a really solid win for their resume.
Dignitas have not shown they can win yet. Until they do, they will not be picked in any game.
Another upset pick here to end the LCS Super Week. Gori has been looking very strong and coming in off a 2-0 start to the week should only fuel this team even more. While 100 Thieves are the better team on paper, they are still prone to mistakes. This is another bit of a feel game but the River and Gori combination is strong and could be enough to power Golden Guardians to the coveted 3-0 week.
