League: Educating LPL is my duty.

February 10th is the second day of the second week of competition. Today, the match between EDG and GT is scheduled as the first game, starting at 2 PM.

Both teams arrived early to receive makeup from professional makeup artists, a common practice in professional competitions today, to make the players look their best.

As the start of the match approached, the commentators took over the camera.

"Hello everyone, this is Miller, your commentator for today!"

"I am a hallucinogen!"

After the two warmed up the crowd, Miller received the EDG lineup from backstage and said with some surprise, "Oh, we received a notification that there's a change in EDG's starting lineup today. EDG's starting AD carry, Zet, is unable to play due to illness, so EDG has chosen to have mouse start as the top laner, and god_C as the AD carry."

Zhihuan also saw the list, but still pretended to be a little surprised: "EDG's lineup arrangement is a bit unexpected. They actually let god_C take over the AD position. You know, in the previous few games, god_C has always been the core tactical point of EDG."

Miller had no idea what EDG was up to. He didn't believe the excuse that Z was sick and there was no substitute AD. After all, EDG was such a big team, surely they could find a youth AD to play a couple of games?

However, since EDG had already said that, he naturally wouldn't contradict them. Instead, he said with great interest, "Before the starting lineup was announced, I think most viewers were quite optimistic about EDG, but now the situation may be different."

"Indeed, under normal circumstances, we have to admit that there is a certain gap in strength between the two teams, but now that the AD can't play, everything is uncertain." Zhihuan nodded in agreement.

【Wait, is EDG serious about this roster arrangement?】

[If we let C play AD and A-Guang play top lane, it would be better to switch them out; at least the top lane would have a stable advantage.]

[Among C's champion pool, Lucian is probably the only AD carry. If GT bans Lucian, what's the point of him playing?]

[Abstract, it can only be described as extremely abstract.]

The comments section was filled with expressions of incomprehension, but since EDG gave the reason that Z was unwell, no one cursed at them.

Soon, the players from both sides took the stage. Li Chen, playing the AD carry role, was positioned at the back, but that didn't stop his stunning good looks from stealing the spotlight.

"C, keep it up! Even when playing AD, play with style."

"Husband, I love you, smash GT to pieces."

"Factory manager, don't turn around, I'm C."

Amidst the cheers of the audience, everyone entered the players' seats and began adjusting their computers.

GT coach Vitamin, who only learned of EDG's roster at this moment, lost his frown and replaced it with an optimistic smile.

"Hey guys, EDGad can't play this time, this is our chance, we have to seize it and try to get at least one point for EDG as a team, it's very important for us, understand?"

As the top laner, Gongzi had naturally heard of Li Chen's growing reputation and had even studied him beforehand. Although he could no longer lane against him, he still offered suggestions to the team.

"Ban god_c's Lucian and Jayce, he won't play other AD champions."

PentaQ nodded quickly: "That's right, Jayce has ranged attacks, so we might not be able to pressure him too much. We can proceed with this, the other heroes don't matter."

Vitamin accepted this suggestion: "Then let's take care of Lucian and Jayce, and see what they're going to choose."

After a while, both sides entered the ban screen. EDG was on the blue side, and nofe first instructed A Guang to ban the captain, which was aimed at Gongzi.

As agreed beforehand, GT first pinned down Li Chen's Lucian.

Miller looked at the two people on either side and wasn't too surprised: "As expected, GT chose to break the deadlock by taking down god_C. Once Lucian is taken down, god_C will no longer have any proficient AD champions on the surface."

"EDG picked Kled as their second pick, and GT responded with Jayce. Are they worried that god_C will use Jayce in the bot lane? GT has considered everything very thoroughly!" Zhihuan was quite impressed with this pick.

Miller also praised, "After all, since god_C came on stage, even the teams that had a headache before only tried to let Riven and Fiora out. No one has ever tried to let Jayce out. They are very cautious about banning him here."

Li Chen was speechless: "Seriously, I've officially switched to the AD position, can't you let me have some fun with Jayce?"

"Let Jayce play? Don't even think about it. I feel like you won't be able to play Jayce at all during the entire Spring Split, unless Riot nerfs him a lot." Clearlove knows the habits of various teams in China all too well.

Nofe reassured him, "It's okay. If Jayce can't be used, then stick to the original plan and let Scout pick Ziggs in the bottom lane. You observe the enemy mid laner's choices first."

Soon, both sides took turns picking off Fizz and Gragas in their third picks. As usual, EDG, on the blue side, immediately locked in Maokai as their first pick.

[This is just right, this is just right! I'd pick Maokai first, this is the EDG I know and love.]

I'm really curious what C is going to play; I haven't seen him play AD much before.

It doesn't matter what you play, I don't believe you can get completely destroyed if you play a carry role. Just play it safe and you'll be fine.

That's the truth, and only when the carry goes to the bottom lane can the factory player unleash their full potential.

Wow, brother, that's a great insight! This is a route I never thought of before.

When GT's coach saw that EDG had locked in Maokai, he thought for a moment and said, "Take Shen, gimgoon. Your job this game is to play it safe and find opportunities to help the bot lane open up the game."

Gongzi nodded: "OK, no problem."

Miller saw that GT had also locked in Shen in the top lane, and immediately understood GT's tactical intention: "If they pick Shen, then GT is probably going to play the bottom lane. Maybe they think that god_C, as a top laner, will be given a chance to play AD."

"Oh, the mid lane has been locked in too, it's Ryze. There's also a gank in the mid lane. EDG needs to be careful of GT's targeting of the bot lane this game."

"It's alright. I don't think Scout will easily give Ryze a chance to roam. As long as he gets a strong mid laner, there shouldn't be any major problems."

While the two were exchanging their opinions on the draft picks for this game, EDG locked in Ziggs and Karma.

GT remained unmoved upon seeing this and instead picked out the jungler Elise, aiming to establish an early-game gank rhythm in the bottom lane.
