There are always bugs and balance issues at the start of a new set. But I love the new set so far!

New set on PBE!!!!!!! Big hype. Have you played already??

There are numerous significant issues on the PBE that render it unplayable, particularly Pick of the Litter, which consistently gives you two units when purchased from the shop until the next augment choice. I don't particularly like this new set. It definitely feels poorer in quality than Remix.

ooooooof that does sound strong! which tier is that augment? I havent played yet, but I absolutely LOVE the way it looks. The theme is absolutely gorgeous!

Pick of the Litter, is an encounter that isn't working properly (Champion Encounter) it's suppose to be once, but continues until the augment choice. Which depending on randomization will be 1 or 10 or more fights. I don't find it to be that visually pleasing. A few units maybe, but the overall quality just feels re-used (Challenger Icon, Ricochet bounces, etc)

Well it is getting harder and harder to think of new things. Do you feel like there are more bugs for this new set than previous ones?

The game is completely non-functional, as it fails to properly execute essential functions such as carousel choices, camera angles, loot distribution, and item and unit duplication.

Additionally, players are able to reach level 10 within an unusually short time frame of 3-5 stages. The final release should undergo thorough polishing, as it now contains an exceptionally large number of bugs, surpassing any I have ever encountered before.

The fact that they're re-releasing previous sets demonstrates how out of ideas they are. The same champions appear with the same ultimate abilities from a few sets ago, but under a new trait or an old trait returning with a new style of effect behind it.

It's simply unfortunate because they expressly pulled out of Riot Forge and other development to reinvest all of their resources on League, TFT, and their future fighting game, where Riot Forge was doing excellent work!

Oh nooo, that does not sound good. I really hope they can pull it together :(

Nice update for set 10, I love it!! What do you think of the new set so far?

1

(87) |

In addition to the evident prevalence of meta-slaving and the existence of specific excessively dominant builds for tier 1 and 2 units making fast 8 less effective (I find), the current state of the game aligns precisely with my initial perception.

I am inclined to appreciate Heartsteel due to its Underground feel, which is one of my preferred teams from earlier sets. However, its ability to endure is severely lacking unless all of them are upgraded to level 2 right from the beginning, with the aid of PvE and the carousel, along with favorable items to ensure early survival and progression into the late game.

What do you think of the changes made to heartsteel this patch? (sorry for the late response)

I don't tend to play HS unless it's a first opener with Hearthrobs now, can't really say I feel much of a difference :P

I've never had heartthrob. I generally just go 3 heartsteel with ezreal

Really fun to have.

(85) |

Yeah i can imagine. I always hate it when someone in the lobby has it, haha!

(85) |

What do you think of the new set?

1

(87) |

Personally, I believe it is simply too overwhelming, much like previous sets such as Zyra / Annie mage spam. Many people are spamming Urf and merely rolling for traits to acquire Noxius, Bilge, or Demacia builds, particularly sorcerer. It's almost worthless to try anything that isn't "meta".

1

(85) |

Yeah the emblems are extremely strong, same as the previous set with Gwen sadly. I bet set 10 will be epic though!

It's possible, but it's also possible that they'll revert to Set 2 shenanigans or Zyra / Annie mechanics and just become a more unfun meta slave.

10 sets is huge though, I think Riot will make something big of it. *praying*

1

(87) |

For the sake of not being disappointed when things really happen, I maintain my expectations at a fairly acceptable level of excitement. Permanent level 10 sounds amazing, and the lack of Legends makes it more controllable overall, but it's a little too RNG. Then there are compositions, any item changes. We can hope, but at the end of the day, problems will arise.

This entire set was controlled by Bilge Water, which was subsequently "nerfed" and significantly buffed again, making it incredibly controllable by taking Urf for an almost certain x9.

I am trying really hard to not get my hopes up too high. As you can see, I am failing miserably. I like the portals from this set. Legends was a good idea, but proved too hard to balance.

There is always going to be something that is really strong, but i dont like it when it is OP the entire set. It is more fun if you have to figure out new comps after every patch.

1

(87) |

The first week or so is dedicated to finding the most OP strategies, and then others arise when those aren't as strong or when someone finds an exploit really :p

1

(85) |

Sadly some sets, the same thing is OP the entire set though. Other comps come and go, but that one comp is strong, or even broken, the entire time. I dont like that

1

(87) |

Yep. I miss Set 1. It wasn't really broken, every build had a counter. So it was mostly repositioning and using them to counter other comps.

1

(85) |

Yeeeeeeees, plus everything was new. Set 1 was amazing!

1

(87) |

Then Set 2. BAM! PYKE FREEZE! PYKE FREEZE! Challenger! Wooo!

1

(85) |

Ooooh, I spammed the frozen comp. With olaf i think?? It was broken the entire set, but back then i didnt mind that yet, since i was still learning the basics.

1

(87) |

Frozen Heart x2 on Pyke made it so units hit by it would be frozen with 0.1% attack speed :p

1

(85) |

Yeah that was so stupid :(

1

(85) |

Great guide! Maybe remind people of the importance of slamming items. Waiting for BIS will often tank your HP. I personally find it a good guideline to try and never have more than 4 components on the bench.

1

(87) |

Yep, that was on my list to do.

Since I'm basically making changes here and there and pushing them through as I do it.

Good stuff with lots of useful charts and as simple as it can be. TY

TFT is an overly simple game to understand. The hard part is the RNG portion, which forces you to have to change up strategies when things aren't going the way you wanted them to.

The switch over to 5.5 TFT on live has been updated here on Mobafire. Get the basic run down here.

Hello,for the players (beguinners ) this heps soo much,thanks soo much Man ;)

(87) |

You're welcome. TFT can be pretty confusing when it comes to new players, since everything is changing with each an every TFT set. Hopefully you have fun!

hi im new to tft and was wondering something, do you get a comp in mind before the game and just go for that or go for a comp as it comes in?

1

(87) |

Normally people just play the builds that they personally really know work. But that tends to make it a lot more easier to get countered. Because of the popularity, less diversity etc.

I normally go in with the idea of "I want to survive the early game, figure out what everyone else is going for, then go for something nobody else is choosing." this allows me to get level 3 units very quickly if lady luck is on our side, and build to that.

But if the game hands you a really strong comp early game. It's best to try and go for it.
