The halftime break passed quickly, and the players returned to the field.

Since it was the third game, there wasn't much time for commentary and rambling; the draft phase quickly appeared on the big screen.

"Alright!!! Today, the semifinals of Group A have reached the most crucial moment. Will EDG continue their undefeated streak, or will IG pull one back and continue their playoff journey?" Wang Duoduo's voice once again resounded throughout the stadium.

"IG chose the blue side this game, it seems they're going to pick some strong champions for their top, mid, and jungle," GuGu said.

"That's right! When playing against EDG, you absolutely need a strong laning composition for the top, mid, and jungle. If the laning phase isn't even over, you won't even get into team fights, and EDG will just outmaneuver you and kill you." Guan Zeyuan nodded slightly and said.

"Actually, we can see that when EDG plays against SKT, they often rely on Attack's individual ability to turn the tide. To some extent, there is still a certain hope of winning team fights against EDG."

"The draft screen is out, and IG still banned Thresh, Taliyah... Oh? IG actually banned Lucian as their third pick?" Wang Duoduo was a little surprised: "Is IG going to pick Jayce themselves? After all, we all know that Attack's Lucian is a counter to Jayce."

EDG banned Jarvan IV, Cassiopeia, and Rumble.

Now, Galio and Xayah are the ones we need to watch out for.

At this point in the game, IG is clearly going all out and no longer considering the logic of the draft picks.

TheShy immediately picked Jayce.

EDG naturally wouldn't hold back, but instead of going for Galio, they turned around and picked Rakan and Corki.

"Oh? Rakan and Corki? Are they planning to pick Xayah and Rakan? At the same time, to prevent IG from getting a teamfight composition with Galio and Rakan? What will IG pick? Gragas?" Guan Zeyuan said loudly.

As expected, IG picked Gragas jungle on the second floor, which is a relatively strong jungler in the current version.

Immediately afterwards, IG locked LeBlanc for Rookie on the third floor!

"Huh? Rookie's LeBlanc!!!" Wang Duoduo immediately burst into laughter: "It seems IG is really going all out in this game. LeBlanc is Rookie's absolute best-of-the-best, his trump card, without a doubt!"

"Of course! If we don't take a chance now, we'll have no chance at all." Guan Zeyuan laughed as well.

"What should EDG pick? Let's take Xayah first. If they don't pick her now, she'll be banned in the second round," Gugu said.

Amidst the clamor of voices, EDG naturally chose Xayah on the third floor.

After the first round of banning and picking, both sides began the second round of banning.

EDG, on the red side, chose to ban Varus and Kalista.

Both of these are champions that can effectively counter Xayah in lane.

IG banned Renekton and Rek'Sai!

Jayce vs. Renekton depends heavily on skill and jungler performance; once one side gains an advantage, it becomes a one-sided, endless slaughter.

Moreover, EDG's Renekton and Sejuani composition, as well as the Renekton-Elise combo, are basically unstoppable by any team.

After both sides banned heroes, EDG picked a hero on the fourth floor that surprised many people.

Ezreal, the darling of Riot Games!

"Huh? This EZ pick was probably just for fun... Huh? Locked in? Locked in EZ!!! My god? What does EDG mean by this draft?"

Wang Duoduo was full of questions: "Where is EZ going? Is he going to go top lane? But EZ has a tough time against Jayce, right?"

"The main problem is that Xayah and Rakan have already been picked. If Ezreal isn't going top lane, where else can he go? We can't exactly have him jungle, can we?" Guan Zeyuan couldn't help but laugh. "That doesn't make sense!"

"This EZ is definitely going top lane!" GuGu shook his head and said, "Could it be that Attack has some special strategy?"

IG was genuinely surprised that EDG would pull out EZ at this crucial moment; they were all a bit stunned.

However, they had already picked their top, mid, and jungle champions, so they immediately chose Kog'Maw and Janna.

IG didn't plan to use any teamfight heroes in this game; their main strategy was for each player to rely on their own skills.

Normally, such a 'brain-dead' lineup wouldn't be possible, but at this point in the game, Coach Mafa has already chosen to trust the players.

After IG made their fourth and fifth picks, it was EDG's turn!

"The final counter pick has been given to the jungler. What jungler will EDG choose?" Guan Zeyuan's voice was full of curiosity: "Zac? Or Maokai jungle?"

At this point in the match, not only the commentators, but also the audience and other professional players watching the game were filled with anticipation.

Amidst much anticipation, EDG revealed a special champion in the fifth counter position on the red side—Malphite, the Lava Giant!!!

locking!!!

You will lose!

The stone man's voice slowly rang out.

Countless viewers were stunned when they saw EDG lock in this hero.

But the next moment, deafening cheers resounded throughout the entire stadium!

"Wow!!!! A stone man!!!"

"66666666!"

"Could it be a Malphite jungler???"

"77777777!"

"EDG has never disappointed when it comes to creating entertaining content!!!"
