Answer

Ruling: You do not have to designate a specific battlefield for game 1. Battlefields are registered as a group, and you select which one to use after legends and command centers are revealed, allowing you to counter-pick even in game 1.

Sequence:

  • Legends and command centers are revealed
  • Battlefield is selected from your registered group

Nuances:

  • A chosen champion is an element of deck construction and cannot be swapped in game 1, even when decklists are not in use
