6 starting fives
1Void Resonance regular fiveOur team
Teemo pressures a side lane, Warwick contests early fights, Locke supplies burst, Jinx carries longer fights, and Blitzcrank creates the first opening. VREvent, the owner, plays Support on North America.

Catch threatMixed damageStrong carry cleanup
Watch for: The team is strongest when Blitzcrank or Warwick creates a clean first target. Avoid a scattered fight where Jinx cannot safely follow and Teemo has no time to establish map pressure.
2Front-to-back team fight
A durable front line protects Jinx while Orianna controls the space between both teams.

Reliable front lineClear late-fight carryStrong objective entrances
Watch for: Needs disciplined spacing. Flanks onto Jinx or Orianna can remove the damage before the tanks matter.
3Layered engage
Malphite and Amumu start the fight, then Yasuo and Miss Fortune convert the crowd-control window.

Watch for: Do not spend every ultimate on one missed entry. The team has less room to disengage after committing.
4Pick and catch
Several direct engage tools can isolate one opponent before a full five-versus-five begins.

Direct single-target accessStrong fog-of-war threatEasy follow-up
Watch for: Grouped durable teams can absorb the first catch. Vision control is part of the composition, not an optional extra.
5Protect the carry
Multiple shields, movement tools and defensive ultimates create space for Kog'Maw to keep attacking.
