The group stage of 2017 MSI took off with SKT T1 Huni's Galio on top lane.

In response to G2's attempt to make Huni's selection pool narrower by banning fighter champions likely to be picked in the top lane, SKT T1 decided to go with the Galio top, one of the flex picks that has been actively discussed since before the game began. This is something we did not see in the Spring Split, and fans are hoping to see if it would be effective just like Rumble that boasted its 100% win rate.

Alongside with Huni's Galio we also saw Peanut picking Graves and Wolf going with Miss Fortune support. SKT T1 is expected to come with high firepower to maintain its aggressive presence throughout the Rift.
