"Coach, coach!"
As the sound reached his ears, Yang Jingyu opened his blurry eyes.
Looking at the concerned, youthful, and innocent eyes around him, Yang Jingyu subconsciously jumped up from his gaming chair.
Yang Jingyu rubbed his face hard, staring at everything in disbelief.
Although we were still in the rest room, the players around me had changed from Hoya, Beichuan, uacl, Huanfeng, and Yaoyao Princess to Changhong, Xiaopeng, Twila, Gala, and Mark!
Yang Jingyu bit his finger, looking utterly incredulous.
Did I go back to the Summer Split of S9?
Yang Jingyu recalled that in the first game between TT and RNG, RNG used Time Rewind, which eliminated TT's only chance to turn the game around—the opportunity to kill Gala Zeli with Scissors Girl.
He then left the lounge, intending to seek justice from the league's referee team, when he collapsed in the corridor.
When I woke up again, this was the scene before me.
The five team members and coach Yu Qinhao, also known as Bai, all looked at Yang Jingyu with concern. Bai asked worriedly, "Old Yang, are you alright?"
Yang Jingyu looked at Yu Qinhao without saying a word.
Instead, he silently took out his phone, checked the time, and then glanced at the mobile app!
It is now 5:01 PM on June 1st, 2019.
EDG will face off against DMO, which is the former SDG and is currently coached by Yang Jingyu.
The best-of-three (BO3) match is about to begin, and both players are about to take the stage.
Yang Jingyu remembers losing the match, with a score of 0:2.
From NEST onwards until the disbandment of the DMO team, they never once defeated EDG.
For the opening match, EDG chose Jinoo, a Korean player who had just joined the team and is known as the Sword Immortal, for their top laner!
Jinoo performed exceptionally well in V5, far surpassing Changhong.
It's quite obvious that the reason EDG chose to start with Jinoo instead of Ray is that they wanted to dominate DMO's top lane from the start, so they switched to Jinoo!
However, whether it was Jinoo or Ray, Changhong couldn't hold his own in the top lane.
Another reason is the gap in mid lane.
The mid laner for EDG now is not U from back then, nor Pawn who later suffered from a back injury, but Scout!
Xiaofei can be considered one of the top three mid laners in the LPL right now. Even though he hasn't achieved great results yet, Yang Jingyu knows that he will be a world champion mid laner in the future.
There's a saying that goes, you can think Xiaofei has character flaws, but you can't doubt Xiaofei's abilities.
Clearly, their own mid-laner Twila couldn't withstand Xiaofei's attacks.
Although Twila is a highly talented professional player and is known as the most valuable rookie, that was in the LDL. Once he comes to a top league like the LPL, he won't be able to handle that intensity.
Yang Jingyu composed himself and said to his teammates, "EDG's starting lineup is Jinoo, I believe everyone is familiar with him. Changhong, just keep your composure!"
Changhong frowned, but still replied seriously, "Coach, don't worry, I will withstand Jinoo's attack!"
Yang Jingyu took a deep breath. He knew that Changhong couldn't beat Jinoo, especially since the other side had the strongest rookie jungler, Jiejie!
This player, Jiejie, is the fourth prince of EDG. When he first came on, few junglers in the LPL could withstand his performance.
He has now officially begun his LPL career, and his playstyle is quite unpredictable. However, he has not yet reached his strongest form.
In any case, Jiejie is a double-edged sword now. If used well, it can be devastating.
If you don't use it well, you'll drag your teammates down first.
Since it's the first game, there's not much to say. The main focus should be on EDG's mid and top laners.
The first game started quickly.
On EDG's side, after the players went on stage, they sat in their seats, drinking water and chatting and laughing.
On the other hand, only Mark, who had a good attitude, was talking. The others couldn't laugh, and Gala was even more taciturn, not saying a word.
Changhong, on the other hand, was nervously adjusting the equipment.
You should know that he was completely crushed by Jinoo in NEST.
Soon, the BP screen appeared.
DMO is on the blue side, EDG is on the red side.
This is also the opening match. After IG won the world championship last year, the League of Legends craze has been reignited in China, so the opening match naturally attracted a lot of attention.
The audience at the scene were almost all there to see EDG.
As for DMO, sorry, it has no fans.
Even Gala, which will become a mainstay of domestic AD in the future, has no one to support it.
Currently, it's version 9.10. Yang Jingyu had his players ban Jarvan IV and Sylas, and the third pick was Jinoo's Irelia!
Jinoo's two most famous champions are Riven and Irelia.
Riven is not viable in this patch, while Irelia is nerfed in every patch, yet she is still active in professional matches.
