"Huh? Ziggs in the bot lane? Tristana in the mid lane? What kind of lineup is this?" Remember immediately expressed his doubt: "Did EDG make the wrong changes?"

"There shouldn't be any mistake in the switch. EDG didn't raise any objections to the referee team. Obviously, this Tristana is going to go mid." Wang Duoduo took a deep breath: "EDG has taken the advantage of the blue side to the extreme."

"EDG has a strong initiation lineup, while WE is playing a defensive counter-attacking style!" Tongxi's eyes shone with anticipation: "Let's see how both sides perform in this game. Will EDG extend their lead, or will WE pull one back?"

"666666! What a crazy lineup! Ziggs in the bot lane?"

"You know what, you really do know! Tristana's E skill passive kills Malzahar's bugs very quickly."

"Since your WE mid laner wants to farm together, doesn't that just do what Tristana wants? Once Tristana gets farmed up, won't she crush your Malzahar in the late game?"

"Compared to that, I'm more curious about the top lane fight! In the last game, Attack crushed Camille with Fiora. What will he do if he gets Camille against Fiora this game?"

"I heard your Ashe Braum is strong? All you see are bombs, no one else. Haven't you heard that? In the late game, Ashe is definitely not as strong as Ziggs."

"I heard you can use your Ice Blast to support others, so can I, the Techies, hahaha..."

"This lineup is so damn abstract!"

……

Ordinary viewers, and even the commentators on stage, might not understand EDG's top and bottom lane swap.

But as one of the top coaches in the LPL, Redmi naturally understands the brilliance of EDG's move.

Originally, if Tristana and Leona were to face Ashe and Braum, the bot lane would definitely be at a disadvantage in the early game.

After all, Ashe is a strong early-game hero. Without mobility, Ashe's ultimate will be particularly vulnerable in team fights in professional matches if she misses in the late game.

Therefore, if Ashe is picked, it's essential to gain an advantage in the early game.

While the Ziggs mid lane can farm against Malzahar, this makes it extremely difficult for the jungler Ivern.

After all, Ivern and Bomberman don't have any crossover scenes.

But with this switch, the bot lane focused on farming, and Ashe's early-game advantage was completely gone.

The Tristana who went to the mid lane was no longer afraid of Malzahar and had room to develop.

Once Graves invades Ivern's jungle to counter-jungle, Tristana can even coordinate with Ivern in the mid and jungle.

Although neither of these two champions is strong in the early game, Tristana can at least support Ivern. With Ivern's bushes and shields, they have some ability to fight back, while Ziggs can only throw his skills from a distance.

In fact, the late-game combat power of both sides is about evenly matched.

The key is that all of WE's early-game strengths were neutralized.

This is BP!

A good lineup does not necessarily guarantee a higher win rate for the players.

However, a good lineup can certainly provide players with room for error.

The most typical example is TES. Before S14, if TES's early game rhythm was disrupted, it would give people the feeling that the game was over and they couldn't win.

But TES in S14 can have a margin for error!

The deaths or mistakes on one side will inevitably affect the situation, but they won't give people the feeling that the game is completely unwinnable.

EDG's mid and bot lane swaps are a demonstration of their ability to handle mistakes.

After both sides selected their lineups, they entered Summoner's Rift.

(Blue side EDG) vs (Red side WE):

Top Lane: Camille vs. Fiora

Jungle: Ivern vs. Graves

Mid Lane: [Troll Warlord] vs [Malzahar]

ADC: [Demolitionist] vs. [Ashe]

Support: [Aurora] vs. [Heart of Freljord]

"EDG! Come on!"

"WE! Go for it!"

Amid cheers from the audience, both sides burst out of the fountain.

After WE left the base, the five players grouped up and charged straight into EDG's bottom jungle.

Ashe Braum is quite strong in level 1 team fights, so naturally she needs to enter Ivern's jungle.

The WE team knew very well that their chances of winning this game lay with Graves.

EDG naturally anticipated WE's invasion, so they did not immediately enter their bottom jungle.

Apart from Camille going to the top lane, the other four players were all standing near the second mid-lane tower.

"WE's level 1 team fight saw them aggressively invade with their Arctic duo." I remember being somewhat surprised: "Is EDG going to switch jungles this time?"

The problem is, EDG has an Ivern. If Graves steals the red buff and raptors before going back to defend his own red buff area, then Ivern is doomed.

“Yes, if Graves steals the red buff and raptors, he should just go back. Ivern won't have time to farm yet. Besides, they can't win in the jungle either.” Wang Duoduo nodded slightly: “What should EDG choose?”

"EDG is all positioned at the second tower. They placed a ward at the F6 camp and saw WE's movements. Judging from their positioning and actions, are they trying to defend their jungle?" Tongxi asked with some doubt. "The mid lane is okay, but the bot lane will definitely lose minions, right?"

After both sides started sending out their troops, WE noticed that EDG's players hadn't come over, so Ashe, Braum, and Malzahar started to spawn.

They can't not go online; if the cannons and bombers go online early, they'll definitely lose troops.

Furthermore, Braum must stay with Ashe, otherwise if EDG ambushes in the bushes and unleashes a combo on Ashe, she'll be doomed.

EDG only began to act after seeing Malzahar online.

Tristana and the bot lane duo accompanied Ivern into the jungle.

When the Graves saw the EDG team approaching, he was so frightened that he ran away with his head in his hands.

The Bomber followed the minion wave from the second tower to the lane, while Leona went to the bush next to the red buff to prevent anyone from ambushing her there.

After seeing that the enemy champion had been driven away, the little cannon went online through the alley next to F6.

Seeing this, the grasshopper stood in the river, wanting to intercept the cannon. Even if it couldn't stop the cannon from gaining experience, it would still gain some health.

The prepared cannon decisively used W to jump a distance to prevent Malzahar from trading blows.

If Tristana is playing against other mages, leveling up W at level 1 is definitely not a good idea. Mages like LeBlanc will definitely come up and get beaten to a pulp by Tristana.

But learning how to kill grasshoppers is fine, since they don't have any mobility skills and their abilities are quite clunky.

After driving away Graves, Leona stubbornly protected Ivern, ensuring he received the Red Buff before leaving.

Mingkai was also worried that things might change if he waited too long, so after he got the Red Buff, he immediately used Smite to put the Red Buff into his inventory.

For Ivern, he can give up all the other jungle monsters, but he absolutely cannot give up the Red Buff.

WE's level one attack was neutralized by EDG.

Of course, EDG also paid a price, namely that the Leona in the bottom lane spent too much time in the jungle.

This resulted in the three melee minions in the first wave of minions not getting any experience.

If it were a normal AD carry, the bot lane would definitely have a tough time in the early game.

But EDG played the Bomberman in this game, so all you could see were bombs and no one else, which wasn't a problem!
