In Pudong, the Magic City, the venue of the LPL League is the Expo Stage in the Expo Park.

"Welcome back everyone, this is the third day of the first week of the 2014 LPL League of Legends Professional League Summer Season. Hello everyone, I am the live commentator Miller."

"Hello everyone, I am the commentator Changmao."

"Hello everyone, I am today's commentator Xiaomi."

A new face appeared on the commentary desk today, that is the commentator from Taiwan, Changmao. He is the new commentator introduced from Taiwan by the official LPL event this season.

The Taiwan league is not particularly strong due to its own market size and the strength of the players.

But as pioneers in the field of e-sports, they have a lot to learn from LPL in terms of event organization, operation, logistics and promotion.

"I feel like from these pick and ban strategies, we can roughly see the tactical styles of both teams."

"Ah, yes, it is indeed difficult for IG to face LG.S now. It depends on whether the top laner they introduced during the offseason can produce a chemical reaction with their existing lineup. Then there may still be a chance."

IG was not willing to take such a risk and decisively banned this hero.

"I hope their strongest man is already in the formation."

Miller gave his blessing.

It can be said that the two teams of the LG club have made the status of the hero Jayce much higher worldwide.

During this transfer period, in addition to many Chinese players leaving for other regions to become Chinese players, some teams in the LPL region also tried to introduce some potential foreign players into the LPL or LSPL.

Miller made a little joke, touched his chin and laughed.

"Although Korean teams have lost to our LPL teams in the past two years, the strength of their top professional players is still very impressive. Introducing them will help form a catfish effect and promote the development of the strength of our local players."

LG.S banned Yasuo and Lulu, two strong heroes in this version.

"Indeed, judging from LG.S's ban positions, LG.S is not planning to drag the late game with IG, so they banned many late-game heroes."

Xiaomi was a little conflicted. Of course, she didn’t think IG had a great chance, but she felt that it was not a good idea for several commentators to be in the same camp.

The scene changed, and the big screen turned to the ban selection interface.

"Okay, without further ado, let's take a look at the BP of both sides."

"This is also in line with LG.S's traditional style. Forcing others to fight, the opponent often unconsciously follows LG.S's rhythm and fights back."

LG.G team banned the first hero and faced LG.S's reserved ban position - Jayce. They had to choose not to take this hero. Once LG.S took it, their opponents would be tortured.

"Honestly, I don't know how IG is going to beat LG.S. Let's not talk about the LG.S team, let's just talk about IG itself. During this offseason, IG lost their most important player - their top laner pdd. The lineup itself is not complete, and they are facing LG.S. This..."

"What do you two think about the next best-of-two game?"

"If all the top players can come to LPL, then LPL will be almost the same as NBA. It will not only be the first league, but also the super league."

Since there are so many OP heroes in this version, heroes like Kassadin, Weapon Master, and Yasuo are all must-ban and must-pick heroes.

The ban position of LG.S on the red team is relatively fixed. They banned Kassadin, a strong hero in this version.

So IG did not choose the red side but the blue side. The IG team had the first ban and first pick on the blue side.

Of course, there were also some discussions about national sentiment, so Miller and Changmao also gave some explanations on the issue of foreign aid.

Changmao gave his answer decisively without any hesitation.

The three commentators had another discussion about the two teams and the foreign aid issue, and finally ended it when the director reminded them that the bp was about to begin.

Seeing that both commentators chose to trust LG.S, Miller, who grew up with the LPL, couldn't help but sigh. This is a testimony to the transition from the old to the new in the LPL.

On the one hand, this is because the overall scale of LPL is relatively large and can accommodate more players than OGN. On the other hand, because LPL has entered the fast lane of development, the salary is relatively generous, which is also very attractive to players from other regions.

Of course, there are also some strong players from other regions who want to come to LPL, the number one region, to try their luck and prove themselves.

Sure enough, the next lineup selection confirmed the commentator's thoughts.

Xiaomi didn't say anything else, but her meaning was self-evident.

"It's really difficult. You know, their new top laner is a Korean player. I guess it's hard for their top laner to communicate smoothly with their team. It's really difficult to work together to produce combat effectiveness."

"Then I'll definitely support LG.S. After all, LG.S is the world champion. Moreover, this time in the All-Star Game, they defeated all the strong teams with a crushing advantage and won the All-Star Championship. Facing such a LG.S, I don't think IG has any chance."

Judging from the training matches and ranks of various teams, Kassadin is too strong in this version, and IG will definitely grab him if he is released.

As long as Kassadin develops, he will be a hero who can ignore everything and change his fate. It is normal to forcibly narrow the gap, so LG.S does not want to give this hero to the opponent.

The LG.S team still maintains the club's tradition of striving for victory, and the priority right to choose the side falls into the hands of IG.

"After a fierce battle lasting 35 minutes, our not-so-new EDG team finally defeated their old enemy ME team 2-0 and won their first victory of the season."

After that, the bans and picks of both sides went more smoothly, and IG team then banned Ziggs and Lee Sin.

"EDG won all three points with a 2-0 victory, which also means that EDG is now at the top of the league table, just like LG.G and Royal Club."

Miller pondered it for a moment and roughly tasted something.

Xiao Cang had the same idea as Miller.

After two rounds of trials, both sides finally selected their lineups.

The IG team was on the blue side. They chose the hero Shyvana for their new Korean aid in the top lane, Jarvan II for the jungle, Clockwork for the mid laner Zita, and Rat and Braum for the bottom lane.

In this version, the official urgently weakened Braum, so LG.S also tried to release Braum.

The lineup of LG.S on the red side is Crocodile on the top lane, Mantis on the jungle, and a new choice in the mid lane, that is a hero who has never appeared before, Xerath.

Wang Hao and Feng Yi were the first round picks for the bottom lane, grabbing the strong bottom lane combination of Lucian and Thresh.
