BLG Announces National Champion Top as Starter! Bin Benched After Solo-Kill in Return

Summary

On August 22, the LPL officially announced the starting lineup for the match between BLG and AL on August 23. BLG has made another change at the top lane position: Flandre, the S11 world champion top laner, will return to the starting lineup and face his former team AL. Meanwhile, Bin, who just returned to the starting five on August 20, will be benched again. Bin had been away from the lineup for 40 days due to form issues. In his return match against LGD, he was solo-killed twice by LGD's top laner Burdol, and BLG barely won 2-1. Just three days later, BLG decided to adjust the top lane again, giving Flandre the starting spot. Notably, Flandre previously played for AL, so this matchup adds extra intrigue. This move highlights BLG's high standards for top lane performance and their cautious approach in the crucial playoff stage. For fans, the rotation may affect the team's tactics and results, and raises questions about Bin's future role. For the industry, it showcases the competitive dynamics and strategic decisions within LPL teams.
