Just a quick TfT tip
I'm not saying it works all the time or that you're bad for not doing it but I've found saving your gold early and not spending it and accepting a few losses early will eliminate the RNG part of the game somewhat. If you save your gold to 50 you will be guaranteed 10 gold after each match. That may not sound like much but it's helped me burn through the fodder pages and allows to me find exactly which champ I need. I've been able to complete 6-set teams with at least 3 Tier 3 champs multiple times since adapting this strat. I also believe that your chances of getting items increase when you have high amounts of gold. The amount of items I pull when I'm at 50 gold is always at least 2 every game I play. I can't actually confirm this but either I have all the Irish Luck in the world or I'm just seeing a pattern that isn't there. Won't hurt you to try if you're looking to improve your chances of winning.
