On EDG's side, they banned Aatrox, a relatively obscure champion, followed by Xiaopeng's Nidalee, and Jayce, a champion that can be played in the mid or top lane.
Yang Jingyu has vivid memories of this match, as it was SDG's first game after being renamed DMO, and also the opening match of the 2019 Summer Split.
In the previous life, his draft picks were not a big problem, but there was a big gap in the overall strength of the two sides.
Moreover, Xiao Peng suffered a hidden loss because of the appearance of the new contestant Jiejie.
Therefore, in the first pick for the blue side, Yang Jingyu did not let Xiaopeng take his signature Excavator, but instead picked AD, namely Kai'Sa.
Yang Jingyu had no choice. Of his five players, he could only trust Gala at the moment. Although Gala hadn't yet become a Kai'Sa, he still possessed potential and strength.
Choosing AD is not a problem.
Meanwhile, EDG's bot lane, iboy and meiko, picked Xayah and Rakan.
At this moment, both the long-haired man and the doll on the commentary platform showed expressions of incomprehension.
That's right, the current Longhair is still providing commentary.
Changmao said, "I don't understand Coach Jingyu's move. Letting Xayah and Rakan pick Kai'Sa is ridiculous. Xayah and Rakan are currently top-tier bot laners in the meta, and the opposing team has iboy and Meiko. How are Gala and Mark supposed to play in the bot lane?"
Doll agreed, saying, "Indeed, for now, this move isn't very wise. Let's see what comes out on the second and third floors next!"
Yang Jingyu naturally couldn't hear what the two commentators were saying. If he had, he would have sneered. No matter how they play, they can't beat them. So why not hope that Gala has a cheat code?
What if Gala awakens at this moment?
As for the second and third floors, they will definitely be picking jungle and support.
However, Yang Jingyu did not do that. Instead, he had Xiaopeng on the second floor choose the support hero Nautilus for Mark, and Twila on the third floor picked the hero Cassiopeia.
Many people are already confused by the fact that the team is moving out of the mid lane so early.
But the Snake Woman is indeed Twila's signature character, so it's not impossible for her to be played as a third player.
The commentators believed that the jungler should have been on the third floor.
On EDG's side, the third floor player chose the champion Corki for Xiaofei.
When they moved the heroes, they moved the captain and Kennen instead.
Yang Jingyu ultimately chose to ban Olaf and Ryze.
As for the original Enchantress, Xiao Fei chose the airplane, so there's no need to move it.
But when it came to Olaf, even the commentators had question marks above their heads.
On the EDG side, jiejie was stunned.
Coincidentally, the director's camera focused on Jiejie's somewhat bewildered face.
I don't know if they were surprised by Olaf's ban, or if their team's draft strategy was figured out by the opponent!
