One slight thing to consider is the fact that going 2-0 in the group basically gives you a 9-point buffer in Team Points regardless of what happens next, so a 3-4th team who came 1st in the group has 9 more Team Points than a 3-4th team who came 2nd in the group and as many team points as a 2nd place team that came 2nd in the groups. So doubling up on Mouz and Spirit is actually better than you think since going 2-0 in the group means you have basically made 2nd place Team Point - wise (assuming the non-Mouz/Spirit teams are gonna lose the final if they make it there)
Hey Lucy. Happy to see another Fantasy video. The double Astralis double Mouz combo worked well in Pro League. I finished in top 1 with Jabbi, Bro, Siuhy, xertioN and Hunter. For betboom I have Chopper, Zontix, Siuhy, xertioN and Degster. I think he's pretty cheap at 193 and he can do sone damage although I dont know how he'll play after a year. Alternatively i am considering swapping Degster with Drop because Mibr have been playing really well
very nice epl draft, wish that had been the variant i went! i don't hate the drop pick, his form has been great for sure. not certain they can beat heroic but they did surprise cloud9 at the last BB event. i remember doing well then with drop as my 5th too :D
@@lucycasts I was surprised I did so well in EPL tbh and I'm happy with how everything worked out this season. It's my first complete season of fantasy and I'm 142 in the global leaderboard after a slow start. The goal was to place in top 500 and I have done more than that. And I didn't go with the drop pick because MIBR hasn't really beaten top EU teams. I stuck with degster
Hey Lucy! Congrats on your top 10%. My EPL playoffs ended with a top 16% for me despite a norbert -20 and double faze pick. Now I'm hovering at about #150 in the season, let's go! For this one, I'm thinking Spirit + VP. I f*****g hate VP's playstyle, but I'm banking on MOUZ being exhausted after the EPL. They also had time to get some practice in with elec, and Falcons + BetBoom are an easier task than MIBR + Aurora imho. I also don't want to be the 20000th MOUZ - Spirit picker. So here's my team: chopper (eco) zont1x (leader) electronic (attacker) jame (camper) magisk (support) ...and if VP doesn't get out of the group stage, I can still be happy that they lost. :P
anyone not going in on both spirit/mouz gets a thumbs up from me. if i wasn't so close to the top of the celeb board i'd be skipping out on mouz too. electronic is starting to warmup and is super cheap, getting both him and jame at that price is a bargain!
Had a few variants and I really like yours, ive decided to go with Degster, Donk, Chopper, Siuhy, and Snappi. Excited to see what Heroic can do with Degster and a big fan of Spirit and Mouz, don't like the falcons org at all and I hate that the Danes basically screwed themselves up for a worse team (Compared to when they won Paris on Vitality) but snappi is a good eco pick, would prefer to have a VP player over snappi but theyre just too expensive
Wow I was not expecting that but I ended up getting top 2% for Pro League. I was the one who had JT, rain, device, siuhy and Brollan. I'm at 303rd overall for this season now. For this event I'm going with zont1x, chopper, siuhy, NertZ and sjuush. I feel like group B is a lot more predictable than group A which is why I'm picking 4 players from there. My hope is that if Spirit and Heroic both make playoffs, I will avoid the possibility of 4/5 of my players being in one semifinal.
@@lucycasts to me its not that risky, hes one of the best players in the world and since its early in this team they probably giving him more space to feel comfy. I hope people go VP cuz they'll flop.
I personally went chopper sh1ro siuhy degster teses. I'm sort of leaning towards the fatigue on mouz having just won pro league and losing to spirit in playoffs (though I'm not too confident in the teses pick but I couldn't think of anyone else for 203k)
I've been going with kinda the same draft but with torzi instead of xertion because he is more consistent. And for Pro League... I went down with double VP and faze and made the 99% 😢 your team was great and I apologize for mistrusting FlyQuest and going for nafany. I considered him in BetBoom bc he is a cheap ecopick but no more nafany for me 😂 And as always, keep up the good work and good luck 😊
hope you don't go nafany here too! yeah consistency is good I just want to chase the high (and worse teams here than epl so feel it's good ground for a confident xertion to run wild)
going with torzsi, siuhy, chopper, shiro, norwi - might regret it but aurora has a chance to qualify from this group so why not risk it also i think xertion won't play as good as in epl so torzsi it is then
yeah aurora have been on a massive grind, though they'd win melbourne, but either way have had two international LANs with high placing this year already. tough run but norwi that cheap is a bargain.
said in another comment that i very much rate norwi as a pick - best value under 185k hands down. only issue is format doesn't give a lot of play time, but i don't think he will give you negative points

this is a really good point too!
thanks for the video. I have siuhy, xertion, degster, chopper and zon1x. I picked this lineup b4 finishing the video 🤣
it's a goodun!

not the worst donk draft, degster raises the floor for sure. donk will probably make up for any losses on snappi anyway
You were so close to 1% unlucky. Great job.

Had the exact same team as you already locked in. Great minds think alike.
good stuff 🙏
I expected degster to be over 200k just because of hype, now everyones gonna have him!
I think people will be going norbert more than him, but yeah it's a very enticing price even if risky!
@@lucycasts to me its not that risky, hes one of the best players in the world and since its early in this team they probably giving him more space to feel comfy. I hope people go VP cuz they'll flop.
I personally went chopper sh1ro siuhy degster teses. I'm sort of leaning towards the fatigue on mouz having just won pro league and losing to spirit in playoffs (though I'm not too confident in the teses pick but I couldn't think of anyone else for 203k)
yeah same as my first draft, feels like good potential, heroic just burned me in epl which keeps me away...
I've been going with kinda the same draft but with torzi instead of xertion because he is more consistent.
And for Pro League... I went down with double VP and faze and made the 99% 😢 your team was great and I apologize for mistrusting FlyQuest and going for nafany. I considered him in BetBoom bc he is a cheap ecopick but no more nafany for me 😂

I have siuhy/brollan/jame/degster/nertz atm
I refuse to use spirit :
now this is a baller move, no spirit at all! good luck!
going with torzsi, siuhy, chopper, shiro, norwi - might regret it but aurora has a chance to qualify from this group so why not risk it
also i think xertion won't play as good as in epl so torzsi it is then
yeah aurora have been on a massive grind, though they'd win melbourne, but either way have had two international LANs with high placing this year already. tough run but norwi that cheap is a bargain.
@@lucycasts -30 points on norwi but still top 6%, congrats on getting the best team, shame its only top 2%!
im between ur team or this one: sh1ro/chopper/siuhy/xertion and norwi. I think sh1ro can farm a lot this event. what do u think?
said in another comment that i very much rate norwi as a pick - best value under 185k hands down. only issue is format doesn't give a lot of play time, but i don't think he will give you negative points
