Here are my jungle rankings for week four of the NA and EU LCS.
No. 1 – Juan “Contractz” Arturo Garcia (Cloud9 – NA LCS)
Last Week
- Best Game: 47.30
- First Two Games: 82.67
Projections For This Week
- Best Game: 55-65
- First Two Games: 70-85
FlyQuest and Liquid are two teams that should not pose any threat to Cloud9 and Contractz. This should be another easy 2-0 week for C9.
No. 2 –Â Kim “Trick” Gang-yun (G2 – EU LCS)
Last Week
- Best Game: 22.76
- First Two Games: 36.63
Projections For This Week
- Best Game: 50-65
- First Two Games: 65-85
H2K could take the series between these two teams, but my money is on G2. Origen does not even need to be brought up, as that game should be an easy stomp for G2.
No. 3 – Dennis “Svenskeren” Johnsen (Team SoloMid – NA LCS)
Last Week
- Best Game: 59.51
- First Two Games: 49.50
Projections For This Week
- Best Game: 45-60
- First Two Games: 65-80
TSM has been improving each week, even if it is slight, so I expect them to continue this trend against Echo Fox and Team EnVyUs.
No. 4 – Marcin “Jankos” Jankowski (H2K – EU LCS)
Last Week
- Best Game: 40.25
- First Two Games: 30.01
Projections For This Week
- Best Game: 40-55
- First Two Games: 60-75
Like I said above, the series between G2 and H2K will be close, but the ROCCAT one will not be. Look for Jankos to go off.
No. 5 – Galen “Moon” Holgate (FlyQuest – NA LCS)
Last Week
- Best Game: 51.76
- First Two Games: 82.61
Predictions For This Week
- Best Game: 40-55
- First Two Games: 60-75
C9 and P1 are tough matchups, but Moon and FlyQuest have been beating all the odds so far this season.
No. 6 – Matthew “Akaadian” Higginbotham (Echo Fox – NA LCS)
Last Week
- Best Game: 36.65
- First Two Games: 66.62
Predictions For This Week
- Best Game: 40-55
- First Two Games: 55-70
Akaadian will have a tough week against TSM and CLG, but Echo Fox has surprised us before. Akaadian’s owners really have to hope that he can power his team to a big enough early lead.
No. 7 – Jake “Xmithie” Puchero (Counter Logic Gaming – NA LCS)
Last Week*
- Best Game: 54.17
- First Two Games: 76.21
Predictions For This Week
- Best Game: 40-50
- First Two Games: 55-65
Xmithie had his best performance last week, even though CLG still looks pretty unorganized. This week, they play Echo Fox and P1, which should be a 1-1 week for the former NA champs.
No. 8 – Rami “Inori” Charagh (Phoenix1 – NA LCS)
Last Week
- Best Game: 52.18
- First Two Games: 74.88
Predictions For This Week
- Best Game: 35-55
- First Two Games: 45-70
Inori will have to face off with Xmithie and Moon, two relatively tough matchups, though he could easily be the reason his team goes 2-0 this week.
FeelsBadMan Starts of The Week
So here is the deal with these two names.
Dardoch is a hail mary, all-in, “I need a miracle,” start.
Reignover is a, “Dang, I wish I didn’t draft him so high, but there are no junglers available to pick up,” start.
