..... You understand how impossible it is for anyone to tell you what you're doing wrong?

Tell us what you do, or did.

Ask questions.

Well first of all your sample size is too small to say anything. At 5 matches you can't even say you've played TFT yet, let alone that you always lose.

Some generic tips: -Don't waste much gold early on. Try to save up, and pay attention to your interest (Try not to use gold if it affects your interest in the early game). -Try to take advantage of class/origin bonuses when possible (And in the early game, you usually need to have some defense... Meaning knights, guardians, or brawlers). -Using carousel to get good items for certain champions can often be more useful than going for the champions themselves (You need to start figuring out which items are best on which champions though). If you're in last place, you actually have a massive advantage here, since you pick first (So it's often a good idea to grab rarer items while you can). -Remember that losing some health in the early game is not a big deal, but you should try to minimize the damage as much as possible. Losing against minions/monsters is always bad though... Make sure to avoid that.

That's a terrible tip. The interest system is garbage. Best to keep coins in 10s, but never save. By saving, you're losing out on getting champions you need to compete with others. In the future as more champions get added to the pool, it might be more beneficial to save, but not currently. Most of my games, I've got top 1-4 places by not saving. You save, expect having one to two star champions and then losing.

Well saving seems more polarised - like you either loose early because the rollers crushed you or you survive the early game and win in the long run because you now have more gold than the rollers who start to fall behind in lategame. Rolling is much more safer to keep you in middle. But to be honest it is pretty situational depending on how strong is your comp,are you having big winstreak etc. The old classic ,,get to 50 gold by not doing anything" is usually not the way anymore as that costs you a lot unless you high rolled items or champions.

Yeah, the people who go all-in really early on are a pain for me, but many of them are the ones who end up dying first. The trick is to make sure to take as little damage as possible during the early game (You generally have to tank some damage earlier on when playing this way, but it tends to be pretty easy to minimize the amount taken as well), and then just start dominating the mid-late game. And you obviously can't just hoard your money to the point where you're fucking yourself over either. If it starts feeling like you're taking too much damage, or you're low on health, then you spend what you need to feel safe again.

And most of my games, I get top 1-4 places BY saving (I do both though, depending on the situation/game). I should be clear though: I gave that tip to him because he's a new player. For a more experienced player, such as yourself, I wouldn't give the same tip. With you, you know what you're doing, so it can often make more sense to focus less on saving, and more on rolling. I just feel that a new player would benefit more from not wasting all of their money on a bunch of things that they won't know how to take advantage of. I'd say it's better to take things slowly to learn what works, and learn how to manage your money better.
