Foreword: As everyone thinks, this transfer period is still a breath-holding contest. Apart from the various free agency news at the beginning, there was almost no definite transfer news, and all kinds of possibilities and revelations popped up in an instant. The breaking news brought today comes from the traditional giant EDG of LPL.
Let’s first take a look at the lineup uploaded online. Top laner Sheng Qiange and Thal, jungler jiejie, mid laner Scout, and bottom lane are Viper and Meiko. What do you think of this lineup? First of all, if Holy Spear Brother is not used, it will be a configuration of three Korean aids, which means that there must be substitutes in other positions, or simply two lineups, such as the previous RNG. Secondly, rationally speaking, how much better is this lineup than last season? Hope's performance is actually not bad. Changing to Viper may not necessarily improve it. As for the top lane, it may be a change, but the risk is not small. To be honest, it is difficult for this lineup to compete in the S game.
Since it is a breaking news, it cannot be completely accurate. How likely is it? The first is the top lane. There have been news about Thal joining for a long time. It should be true that EDG contacted him. And Brother Shengqiang also announced that he became a free man a few days ago. The one year he stayed at LNG failed to produce any results, and it was inevitable for Brother Shengqiang, who was still obsessed with his dream, to change. Although he was still strong at his peak, it is a pity that he is now at the end of his career. The demand for top laners among the current top teams is not that high. Maybe EDG will be a good choice.
The second thing is about Scout. There have been many reports that he is preparing to leave EDG, and the club is also talking about Chovy. However, based on various information, the signing of Chovy did not go smoothly. Then someone broke the news that EDG has renewed their contracts with both Meiko and Scout and is preparing to cooperate for another year. This news should be relatively the most accurate in this lineup. A blogger who broke the news "I'm Crazy" who was very popular some time ago also confirmed this information.
Finally, there is the bottom lane combination. Meiko remains in the basic group and only needs an official announcement. The matter of sending Hope away has been around for a long time, but whether it's worth it is another matter. Viper's strength is definitely good. After all, it was not easy to lead GRF to break out of the LCK division. Although Hope is not bad, after a year of adjustment, EDG may still feel that he is not suitable for the team. Personally speaking, I still prefer Hope. In terms of possibility, there is really high hope that Viper will join.
Guodian, which was once all-powerful in the LPL, has been criticized almost all over by fans in the past few seasons. It's just that they love it deeply and have an obsession with this team. I hope they can achieve the results they want next season. If EDG really finally competes in S11 with such a lineup, how far do you think they will go?
