The worst comp I’ve ever faced

Honestly the person who thought of this was a genius and I’m mad that I didn't have the braincells to come up with it first.

They were running a full yordle comp which is fine whatever. No big deal. It’s pretty common to see. Nobody else in our game was running yordles so they got the pick of the bunch.

Well while I was busy slapping everyone to death with a brawler/demon/blademaster comp, they 3starred their Veigar and gave him shojin + hextech. For those of y’all that don’t know, Veigar ults for like 20k damage on enemy champs with a star level under his. Just some quick math, that’s like a 6600hp heal off his ult. Which he almost always had up, because of a zekes next to him also giving him bonus attack speed.

We were the last two in the game and I had no three stars from resetting my comp to blademaster w/ a draven carry.

And y’all no matter what I did this lil Veigar would not die. I fought this person like 6 times at the end of the game. I was at 90+ health when we hit the last two in the game and they had like 20ish. I lost it all. Their comp positioning was like impossible to break thru because the yordle passive kept my draven from getting red buff on the Veigar because the frontline just wouldn’t die (thanks to that miss %). And this person, the Einstein of tft, positioned to make it impossible to get a blitz hook onto Veigar either.

I’m honestly not mad that I got second that game because honestly that comp was just such big brain and I wanted to share it with y’all if you wanted something different to run (this was my first time seeing a hex/shojin Veigar so I don’t think it’s meta?)

And if the person who beat me in this particular game is reading this, gg friend. You earned that lp and my respect.

Morellonomicon, Red Buff, Morganna or Glacial and hes dead.

There are a number of ways to deal with healing.

Did you just fucking give items as a counter to a build in Tactics? Are you going to next tell him to buy it from the shop? And Good luck hitting him at 60% dodge rate. Real Iron comment there Told-wart.

Yes I gave items. If you are losing you can choose and build whatever item you wish.

Even when I win from the beginning to the end of a match I can still build 2-3 items of my choice every single game.

Even at 6 yordles, its a 55% dodge rate, 1 of every 2 attacks hits....build an RFC and every attack hits

Idk how to quote my own post cuz I’m on mobile but “Their comp positioning was like impossible to break thru because the yordle passive kept my draven from getting red buff on the Veigar”

I had red buff, I just couldn’t get it to land.

This was also pre-9.15 patch so it was 60% dodge chance on their yordle comp. And it was too far into the game to build an rfc on my draven. Same with getting a morello and Morgana.

a single item or a single character isnt always going to just magically work and full counter something. sometimes you just get out comped. yeah, yordles tend to do really well against things that rely on auto attacking. if you had gone sorcerers or something, maybe you would have had better luck in that situation. plenty of times somebody (say, player 1) will have a comp/build that beats somebody else (player 2) but loses to a third person (player 3). and due to circumstances, player 2 beats player 3. due to unlucky matching, player 1 faces player 3, dies, and gets third place, but player 2 wins the game. so even though player 1 could consistently beat the first place winner, he still got 3rd place. it happens like that sometimes. sometimes you just get out comped. is gunblade veigar strong as a 3star? absolutely! but you still have actually MAKE him a 3star AND have the items for him AND not have the enemy be spell/cc/anti-heal heavy.

considering how powerful healing can be in this game (nobles, warmogs, bloodthirster on carries, gunblade on nukers/aoe, etc) you should be keeping a careful eye on your opponents and checking to see if they are trying to make some hypercarry sustain god. if they are, you should try to prioritize some kind of anti heal item that will fit in your comp. due to how powerful of a counter it is, and that the items get pretty good value in general, its not a bad idea to try and make one all the time ANYWAY. all you have to do is tag a unit with the anti heal once and it will remain for the rest of the battle.
