To much random shit happening, too many useless buffs that do literally nothing, and anything that ISNT ocean mages is just gonna autolose. At least there was counterplay last season, outside of hyperrolling and hoping for ungodly luck to completely change your comp in the middle of the game
Now?
lol, you don't need the word now in that sentence.
Glad I'm not the only one that thinks they ruined TFT this season. They tried to do way too much with this elemental theme.
The entire fucking game sucks right now. Welcome to the party.
it was never good
I'm on a 4 placements streak placed 4 or higher using exclusively Berserkers. It's an excellent class, easily beats mages (Unless they've got something like 3 star Veigar on wolves). You gotta try each and every class and origin to find your favourite.
TFT sucks now
sadly yes
It's almost as if Rise Of The Elements was a mistake
My opinion that games with meta tend to become boring, repetitive and unbalanced. LoL is not far away and it had entire seasons where you saw at pro levels same bans, same picks, same win rates for same champs/ comps. When you get to this point of building up a meta, it means you need to rework.
Going back to LoL example: when you build a game with 100+ champs, but only a handful is quickly becoming viable and the rest 100 - handful never get to be played again, then you can see how detrimental meta really is.
Meta is the death of any entertainment activity. More example? Back when Chelsea FC was a thing a certain folk turned it and its strategy into meta. Suddenly, you knew the result of a soccer game before it started.
So if you want to see the same shit every time, play a meta- based game and encourage the meta, so devs can sit in their offices smoking pot instead of balancing shit out.
P.S.: If they'd work for me and build this meta shit, they'd be fired the next minute. Cheers! :)
this shit is more unfair than last set. all i see in ranked is people forcing ocean mage summoners, hyper roll predator or blademaster nocturne. those are the only 3 shit i see. nocturnes countered by pd so shit comp, preds cant be countered because theyre all fkn 3 stars and mages are countered by what? poison? LMAO they have a built in battery from ocean that gives that extra mana. crystal? ashe is garbage why even bother building her? like at least you can counter assassins with that bullshit 100% dodge crit strikes meanwhile FKN dragon claw is 50% mr. LOL
this set is fucked. id rather play against dragons every game because that was the latest of the late game. fkn HR preds stomp early and win hard late, mages speak comes online once you get brand. disgusting champ that throws 1 ult and does 1.5-2k dmg by himself without items
???????????????????????????????
I must say I've had MANY games where I've gotten to the final 3 at 90+ hp only to insta lose 8 in a row to machine gun Veigar ulting every 2 seconds...
Also, Yet to get a single Lux, and just went 3 games in a row with 0 offensive item drops....
Well, even if i do anything by the book and things work well for me - for most part... i still loose "to luck"in the end...
As can be seen in above screenshots (all 4 of them taken in same day) - there's no winner (1st place) with the Ocean + Mages mix, yet... they all managed to max 3 of their desired units to lvl 3. In 3 of those 4 images - i went for the Ocean + Mages mix (current meta) - yet i lost every time... Either 6 light units, Predator and Glacial/Poison or Ranger + Inferno... having 3 units lvl 3 in that mix - implies a higher potential for sustaining damage - and also higher damage overall.
Ocean is literally one of the most useless buffs.
I've won with a variety of teamcomps. Ocean doesn't seem more overbearing than other comps to me.
who knew that a game mode meant to draw in money and played mobile for the asians and their micro transactions has very little substance
Now

Here's the results for today...
Once again - aiming for comps revolving around Ocean (current meta - so to speak) - and i lost 6 out of 6 game. My best game was 2nd place - but good "luck" beating 3 predator lvl 3 + poison and druids (good for tanking/sustain).
https://imgur.com/vAm1xIk (you'd think 4 mystic - 4 ocean and 3 light could be enough, but... with my luck i couldn't even get 1 unit to lvl 3 / since TFT = RNG - clearly, your luck is what counts the most).
To summit up: 2 x 8th place + 2 x 6th place + 1 x 4th place and 1 x 2nd place.
idk, i've been having fun with Warden/Summoners
...and anything that ISNT ocean mages is just gonna autolose.
Once again, last game looks like this...
Besides Ocean and Mages... Glacial, Poison, Warden, Inferno, Summoner, Predator, Ranger, Shadow, Light and Mountain - are still among the main picks. While Mystic, Avatar, Desert, Electric and Cloud tend to be more situational.
There's not much difference from last season. Even then we had a meta - where some comps were more broken than others. Quite impossible to counter too - since TFT is heavily RNG based. The Ocean and Mages from now - were the Sorcerer + Knights and Phantom from last season (especially the 1st half). Game would start - and 5 seconds latter - you'd have 2 units standing vs 90% of the enemy late game. Still, same as now - you needed some luck to get the required units (or more like... a lot of luck). Cause on the other hand - the first half was also ruled by Knights/Blademaster/Phantom and 6 Nobles. Talk about broken comps "with no counter...". At least that's how it went in the 1st half - cause the end of the season was ruled by Void, Brawlers and Hex-tech. Followed by Dragon, Guardians and Knights. As mentioned above: there was ALWAYS a meta. For this reason - i even quit TFT in last month of last season... cause frankly - chasing 3 comps became a real bore. Heavily repetitive. Mid game and 6 out of 8 players went for knights. And no, I'm not exaggerating - still have some screenshots from "those cringe and boring games..." - such as...
Knights and Brawlers everywhere. Fun, year right...

Just played a game after taking a break, and jeez does all the extra added effects make it look like a cluster muck of what your eyes and brain can take in between each fast stage. Giving us more doesn't equate to better...doubt i'll playing more and will just stay at the rank i am now.
yeah it sucks now i used to play alot of guardians but i would only build guardians with max amount of leonas and braums i would buff braum and he would've had become invincible now everybody goes glacial and pred that sucks 
While I agree there seems to be alot of uselessness all around, what really irks me is theres always 2-3 people going straight for olaf and stacking items on him. Which is fine, im not jealous IDC im not even going for him usually because I prefer to make less popular things work or think outside the box. It's just frustrating to see the same kind of teams win and now tibbers is still OP as he is.
just had a guy use perma shield thresh. fun.
i love when i build a comp. then continue to get nothing but healths, armor and cloaks or swords. IM USING A GOD DAMN WOODLAND for the missions. BUT my enemies have rangers with double rage blade lmfao. screw this rng bullshit
Much of the complaint has to do with a change implemented just before Set 2; the higher early damage.
Every game is Mage, Glacial or Lights now
"now"
I don't know about you, but I'm having success running this deck. http://prikachi.com/images/765/9696765W.png I barely run any mages so I don't know about this part.
