ohhh think i forgot to mention i am casting the rio group stage!! always exciting to get to cast the games i study for fantasy :) i will try not to caster curse your fantasy picks ;)
Wowww, l just found out this channel exists, and lm already amused at how insanely good of a team you drafted for this fantasy, this angle of ropz+staehr+mezi is insanely smart, it is actually insane how you are so good at fantasy, lm definitely going to watch all the videos from now on, what a find this is
Hey Lucy! super excited to see you casting the group stage, ive had a few rough events and a tough season overall but its never too late for a comeback i have a pretty similar team to you as i have w0nderful, aleksi, flamez, mezii and karrigan pretty much agree with all your logic especially with the vitality and navi picks, w0nderful great differential along with mezii, even flameZ is only the 8th highest picked player which seems insane given his and vitality's recent performances karrigan is my only pick im kind of scared about but it was between him and snax, so that decision made itself
thanks! i think karrigan at least has better roles / boosters you can use on him to offset any bad performances, and he has had quite a few good games of late anyway. i think he's a better pick than snax for sure (tho i like chelo more!)
MR12 BO1s in the absolute mess of a state the game is in, is utterly mental. This is a total gamble, literally anything can and will happen. I find it impossible to take this event seriously. So I just didn't give a single f**k and went with a complete NPC comp. I spent less than 5 minutes on it, and this is what I ended up with: Flamez, mezii, aleksib, iM, siuhy.
I managed to get top 4% with a Snappi draft lol. I'm going with wonderful, aleksib, broky, mezii and maj3r. Outside of Navi, I knew I wanted 2 players from Faze/G2/Vitality. For G2 I was only comfortable picking malbsmd, but that would've meant that I needed to pick up Snax or karrigan so I ended up with broky and mezii. I'm honestly not comfortable at all with this draft but couldn't find anything else I was happy with so let's hope this one goes well.
@@lucycasts Yeah I usually seem to have similar thinking as you when it comes to fantasy. I'm definitely done picking Eternal Fire after this event hahaha. I have the same relationship with them that you have with Virtus Pro :/
Going double IGL this time (don't hate me). I know Apex is expensive and hasn't been performing well recently but I think the matchups look good for the vitality entries so apex,flameZ feels like a good start. Double FaZe, almost went ropz and broky but didnt have enough, so its rain and broky there, with a side of siuhy as although Mouz look shaky in the last couple events, they should've had enough time to recover and I can still see them getting through the lower bracket even if they aren't in top shape. so: Apex,FlameZ,Rain,Broky,Siuhy.
yeah my main concern with apex is the later games (g2 i guess?) where he might fall off, but who knows, his epl groups was insane and the vitality run looks "easy" so you never know! some good fraggers, good luck!
Aleksib/wOnderful/flameZ/mezzi/chelo NaVi and Vitality, for me, are still the best teams. And they have the two best paths. I don't like picking G2 players, except for hunter, and he hasn't been performing well recently. I thought about picking two from FaZe because of their very good prices, but my love and irrationality for Furia made me dream a little.
i rate the chelo pick a lot, this is a nice safe draft i feel and i think people will be getting snax/siuhy instead of chelo and will probably suffer because of it!
Hello Lucy, firstly, I am very glad will see you and hear your cast on Rio event. My picks are: aleksib - Support w0nderful - Camper hunter - eco friendly flameZ - attacker chelo - HS machine What do you think about my picks into the fantasy???
thank you! i like this draft a lot, it was one i considered myself. so long as chelo doesn't completely bot out (which i don't think he will here with recent form + brazil event) you'll be sorted!
Taking a little risk and going with mouz. I think they have had enough time to bounce back and their bracket is winnable. Also I went with the same team in the last fantasy and it paid off :) Team: flameZ mezii siuhy torzsi jks
I gamble heavy on the mouz comeback (probably will haunt me) and can't pass device at 205k, chances for it to work are really low but not playing for season leaderboard anyway
I like your team and think also that Navi gonna do great and gonna gamble on Mouz and Navi so Brollan (attacker) Torzi (Multi Frager) Aleksi (support) Wonderful (camper) Jks (Support)
Solid team! this season ain't it for me, so I'm changing things up a bit, and i'll continue to not pick navi ;< hunter/malbs/karrigan/broky/hallzerk hunter malbs is basic,but should do the job and I still love G2 ,karrigan is the cheapest noob of a winning team, broky should farm a bit (and I don't want to put too much into faze since the final is harder) 196k spare means apex,calyx,yekindar or hallzerk.. :') glgl& enjoy the casting!
for a draft without navi or vitality you kinda cooked! but no navi or vitality is BRAVE! still you managed 4 non-IGLs and 2 which can completely take over a game so actually this works. imagine if complexity beat navi!
Does a player being picked by lots of people affect their points? Honestly I don't think so because points are awarded based on the player's performance in the game
no no, it's just the "meta" way i think about drafts, especially when it comes to the most picked teams. because everyone picks jL and iM, picking wonderful gives you an edge if he performs better. it's a risk vs reward kinda thing because there is obviously a reason why people pick jL/iM. but it can be the difference between top 20 and top 5 if it pays off :)
hey lucy, i go with Spinx, mezii, karrigan, ropz, aleksib self explanatory i want to go kinda safe, if faze doesn't make it, rest should give me some points
i went with karrigan broky maj3r xantares and mezii, they are all players who should make points for their price and i wanted to avoid the obvious way to this fantasy
I'm out of contention for this season so I'm trying out a 1-1-1-1-1 draft. It's certainly not optimal but I want to see how far I can go with one. It's iM/hunter/ropz/techno/siuhy. Maybe I'll break the meta
ohhh think i forgot to mention i am casting the rio group stage!! always exciting to get to cast the games i study for fantasy :)
i will try not to caster curse your fantasy picks ;)
Congrats. Cant wait to watch the game you cast

this is basically where i ended up i just went a slightly different route, but exact same logic! i think its good :)

I like the Staehr pick so I decided to go Aleskib staehr Jks monesy and hunter!
hope i haven't cost you! also well done drafting four (ex)g2 players xD
Aleksib/wOnderful/flameZ/mezzi/chelo
NaVi and Vitality, for me, are still the best teams. And they have the two best paths. I don't like picking G2 players, except for hunter, and he hasn't been performing well recently.

Hello Lucy, firstly, I am very glad will see you and hear your cast on Rio event.
My picks are:
aleksib - Support
w0nderful - Camper
hunter - eco friendly
flameZ - attacker
chelo - HS machine
What do you think about my picks into the fantasy???
thank you! i like this draft a lot, it was one i considered myself. so long as chelo doesn't completely bot out (which i don't think he will here with recent form + brazil event) you'll be sorted!
My pick in the last events were not good. So this event i pick 2 navi (aleksib, jL), 2 vitality (flamez, mezii), 1 for chelo
i like it, exactly how chelo should be used!
Taking a little risk and going with mouz. I think they have had enough time to bounce back and their bracket is winnable. Also I went with the same team in the last fantasy and it paid off :)
Team:
flameZ
mezii
siuhy
torzsi
jks
skipping navi has actually got you cooking, 4 non-IGLs and your vita duo should farm some good points on their easy run. very nice!
steahr, ropz, broky, naf, jks - I can see this roster getting a solid top 5%; liquid farming lower finals and faze top; staehr as value pick
I gamble heavy on the mouz comeback (probably will haunt me) and can't pass device at 205k, chances for it to work are really low but not playing for season leaderboard anyway
good prices for both mouz and for device, blast definitely a one off bad performance for him!
I like your team and think also that Navi gonna do great and gonna gamble on Mouz and Navi so
Brollan (attacker)
Torzi (Multi Frager)
Aleksi (support)
Wonderful (camper)
Jks (Support)
some good players, tho you do have 5 on one side of the bracket, so not all may make it through!
@@lucycasts ohh shit... thanks!
I did change to Flamez and Apex instead of Navi!
Solid team! this season ain't it for me, so I'm changing things up a bit, and i'll continue to not pick navi ;<
hunter/malbs/karrigan/broky/hallzerk
hunter malbs is basic,but should do the job and I still love G2 ,karrigan is the cheapest noob of a winning team, broky should farm a bit (and I don't want to put too much into faze since the final is harder)
196k spare means apex,calyx,yekindar or hallzerk.. :')
glgl& enjoy the casting!
for a draft without navi or vitality you kinda cooked! but no navi or vitality is BRAVE! still you managed 4 non-IGLs and 2 which can completely take over a game so actually this works. imagine if complexity beat navi!

@@lucycasts alright. I get you
I really couldn't miss going broky + ropz, so my draft is:
broky
ropz
Alekisb
Mezii
jks (liquid pls win vs complexity)
ooo this is fun, hopefully liquid deliver - they certainly seem to be ramping up! and hey, they've beat navi before...
hey lucy,
i go with Spinx, mezii, karrigan, ropz, aleksib
self explanatory
i want to go kinda safe, if faze doesn't make it, rest should give me some points
interesting approach, definitely won't be many with this combo! spinx and mezii will give you a good floor even if faze bottom out
i went with karrigan broky maj3r xantares and mezii, they are all players who should make points for their price and i wanted to avoid the obvious way to this fantasy
ef / faze is certainly a rare combo! i think many will be put off by xantares price, so good luck!
@@lucycasts after round 1, 97% the wildness didnt pay off
Is Lucy married?
fame fl1t ultimate twistzz karrigan, season is lost anyway so i'll take a risk with that guys.
well vp have a good track record when it comes to rio!
I'm out of contention for this season so I'm trying out a 1-1-1-1-1 draft. It's certainly not optimal but I want to see how far I can go with one. It's iM/hunter/ropz/techno/siuhy. Maybe I'll break the meta
1-1-1-1-1 would defs be a shift in the meta :D nice collection of players, good luck!
