Actually, Trolls have a pretty good chance against Olaf in the jungle.
But Xiaopeng's Troll Warlord build is really... well, there's not much to say about it.
The only time he played Troll Warlord was last season against TES, where he was completely crushed by Xiongxiong.
In other words, heroes like the Troll are not really someone he can handle.
VG clearly understood this, and immediately drafted Olaf for the wandering hero.
On the third floor, they chose Tam.
This hero's choice made Yang Jingyu understand what the fourth floor should choose.
It's not Xayah, it's not Kai'Sa, it's the champion Varus.
Varus and Tahm Kench aren't very popular in China, but they're a Tier 1 bot lane duo in the LCK.
Regardless of whether this version suits them or not, they both enjoy playing these two heroes.
Yang Jingyu did not choose to remove the hero, as he felt it was unnecessary.
Since VG wants Varus, let them have him!
After VG banned Nightmare and Gragas in their fourth and fifth picks, it seemed that Xiaopeng was being forced to choose Troll Warlord.
Yang Jingyu also removed Sona and Sylas, not wanting to give these two heroes to VG.
As expected, VG's fourth pick was Varus, and Yang Jingyu once again accurately predicted VG's lineup.
However, he didn't feel a sense of accomplishment, because it was reasonable for Super Bubble to take Verus, and it was also part of Yang Jingyu's plan.
Varus and Tahm Kench are a very good choice against the bot lane duo of Sivir and Lux.
Even in Korean ranked games, there are Tahm Kench players who bring Cleanse, and some even build Mercury's Treads.
On the fourth floor of DMO, Yang Jingyu hesitated between the heroes Zhao Xin and Troll Warlord. He looked at Xiao Peng and asked, "Would Troll Warlord work?"
LPL coaches discuss the draft and ban phase with the players, unlike the more assertive approach of LCK coaches.
Fortunately, Yang Jingyu isn't the kind of coach who would say, "Brother Xiaopeng, what should we pick this time?"
Xiao Peng hesitated for two seconds, then nodded.
"no problem!"
The fourth pick was Troll Warlord, and the fifth pick was Top Lane.
The opposing team left a counter-pick position in the top lane. Yang Jingyu hesitated for a moment. If Rumble wasn't available, Ale still had Fiora and Camille, but sorry, Ale.
This time, you're not the main character.
Kennan!
That's right, it's Kennen again!
Kennen, a versatile player, was chosen by Yang Jingyu again when Rambo was unavailable.
He was curious to know why he had Ah Le pick Kennen.
What hero will VG's coach Zhu Xiaolong choose to counter this? Viktor or Vladimir?
VG's top laner, Cherry, doesn't play either of these two heroes!
If it were Audi Double Diamond, my friend, this move might just create a Darius.
But he's Cherry, and Cherry is a noob, so don't expect him to pull out a single amazing hero from his hero pool.
So VG's fifth pick was a Renekton.
Guan Zeyuan said, "We can't choose this crocodile!"
Wang Lao Er also said, "Picking Renekton is like being countered, isn't it? This Renekton pick is really not that good. If you want to get beaten up, you might as well pick Sion. At least in the late game, he's both tanky and deals damage."
However, DMO's lineup with Sion has a drawback: a lack of damage output in the late game.
Their lineup is designed for the early game.
In the late game, Renekton's damage output is nowhere near that of DMO. While Renekton is a very strong top laner in the early game, he's still a pushover in front of Kennen before level three.
Only after reaching level six will one have a slight ability to solo kill.
A skilled Kennen can push you across lanes and pressure you from level one.
A level 1 Renekton is arguably one of the weakest top laners.
However, given their early game composition, it's understandable that they picked Renekton.
Wang Lao Er and Ji De had only one thought: they hoped today's match would be exciting.
The two coaches shook hands. When Zhu Xiaolong shook hands with Yang Jingyu, he said with a smile, "Tell your players to go easy on you today!"
Yang Jingyu and Zhu Xiaolong were quite familiar with each other, so he replied, "Right now, your bot lane is the only one worth watching, but our bot lane won't hold back."
Fans from both sides cheered, and the match officially began.
Don't be fooled by the fact that VG is a terrible team and their players are relatively unknown.
But their team has quite a few fans. You know, VG can be considered a powerhouse in the domestic esports scene in both Dota and CrossFire.
VG also strengthened their roster in the most popular game, League of Legends, a few years ago.
But this team seems to have a magical power, or rather, a curse, that makes anyone who joins quickly fall into the same trap as the rest of the team.
Simply put, it's about comparing the lowest possible level of awfulness.
If you think about it carefully, what has VG done all these years? Back when Ezreal was playing, he led the team to the LPL playoffs semifinals, got a pentakill on Lissandra, and then this player, YouDang, stabbed Wang Sicong.
The key point is that in this game, four professional players, along with a random player who was either Platinum or Diamond, actually defeated five professional players.
Anyway, this team is now completely nailed to the pillar of shame in League of Legends, and even the entire game.
To put it bluntly, VG's acquisition and renaming was the best thing they ever did.
Blue side DMO: Top lane Kennen, Jungle Trundle, Mid lane Jayce, Bot lane Sivir and Lux.
VG (Red Side): Top laner Renekton, jungler Olaf, mid laner Ryze, bot lane Varus paired with Tahm Kench.
