Answer

Ruling: Players choose/reveal their battlefields first (during the setup phase per the general rules), then turn order is determined. The battlefield chosen by the first player is not used.

Sequence:

  • Both players reveal their legend
  • Both players reveal their chosen champion
  • Both players reveal/choose their battlefield
  • A player is chosen to decide whether to go first or second
  • The battlefield of the player going first is removed from play

Nuances:

  • In multiplayer formats (FFA3, FFA4, 2v2), the rules text implies turn order before battlefield selection, but this appears to be a wording oversight for conciseness
  • Battlefields are chosen randomly in Bo1 formats but are selected by players in Bo3 matches
  • Since both battlefield selection and first player are typically random in Bo1, the order doesn't practically matter in those cases
