Scout Reflects on the “Hidden Corner” of JDG
JDG, aiming for a breakthrough in the 2025 season, has become a significant name in the competitive League of Legends scene. Among the notable figures, Scout and Peyz from Gen.G stand out and are expected to lead JDG to success. After two matches in the LPL 2025 Split 1, JDG has shown a strong determination with two convincing victories, securing their spot in the playoffs.
However, the topic generating the most discussion around JDG and Scout is not just their performance but also the “hidden corner” of EDG. In a recent interview, Scout expressed his envy towards Peyz, acknowledging the impressive impact he had during their debut in LPL. “I truly feel envious of Peyz because when he debuted in LPL, his team was performing exceptionally well, while my team struggled during those initial matches.” Scout shared.
Following the interview, many fans have pointed out the stark contrast in performance between EDG and JDG. Images of Deft receiving minimal attention while still playing for EDG have drawn criticism, highlighting the disparities in support between the two teams. Numerous fans noted that the quality of support at EDG significantly lags behind that of JDG, impacting their overall competitiveness.
Scout Leads JDG to New Heights as EDG Struggles
In recent years, the performance level of EDG has drastically declined, making it difficult to compete in the LPL. Legendary players like Scout, Viper, and Jiejie have moved on from EDG in search of new opportunities. Currently, in LPL 2025 Split 1, EDG has already lost both matches against TT and BLG, securing only one win. This disappointing result has relegated EDG to the bottom of the standings, eliminating their chances of playoff contention.
As previously mentioned, Scout and JDG are aiming for higher achievements, while EDG seems to be trapped in a “deep valley.” If they do not improve their team dynamics, particularly their support system, it seems likely that EDG will continue to struggle in the future. It’s truly disappointing to see a team that once reached the World Championship now facing such rapid decline.
