Wining just gives to much gold it needs a nerf im sick of ppl who legit don't know how to play this game and spamm gold on early game reflesh and level ups. Its just bad for this game... it makes it so RNG dependent... The player who fights vs the kids who spend all there gold early will lose the game and the once who don't will win this game...

Like matchups are al wrong for me and i feel this nearly every game. I don't lose because i can't play i lose because im match vs player who've spend 30-50 more gold then me.. Meanwile the once who have 50 gold for income are fighting other ppl with at lest 30 gold not spent.. That's just so wrong, make incoming matter more, make wining matter less and boom you have a good game.

OR at lest make it so early to mid game game on lose is a lot lower..

I legit feel like someone is paying them money or they are premades working for the gole of there friend winning... 1st 10 rounds im vs nothing but kids spamming there full gold not careing about income.. and by 4-1 im with 10 hp meanwile a guy who doesn't fight them and fight vs ppl who save up gold is fully healthy banking on 5 gold income and 3 gold from win streaking.... and i just find that morally wrong..

Can't we get matched like players who are on the same or close to income level??? Why must some player fight vs 50 income players and onthe have to suffer in the hands on morons spamming gold and having level 2-3 units by level 5-6 that will forsure lose latee game because ppl who income will be of higher level??

Just saying it sounds like you aren't bothering to learn what times people are spending vs econing or what they're spending on.

People rarely donkey roll for early game refresh, that's usually saved for Krugs or after Carosel once some interest is generated. Players often immediately lv up to 4 because 4v3 is a 25% increase in your damage output and durability even if you don't have a two star unit. It's just a good idea if you want to winstreak early. People who want to econ often will play out that PvP round, see if they lose, and then sell everything and leave an open fort for a round and then use that 20+ gold to stabilize at Krugs.

This isn't DAC where the damage just tickles you all game, TFT is a faster paced Auto Chess game. Maintaining advantage early is very worth it, but it doesn't guarantee you first place. More like top 5. The comps that are strong early involve setups like Nobles, Knights, Rangers, and Gunslingers. You won't be seeing things like Assassins, Sorcerers, Guardians, Demons, Brawlers, ect popping off. Those comps rely on 3 cost and higher carries and usually swing into the game pretty hard.

Just saying every good player learns to econ and to power roll. If you're in a bad spot you'll likely need to spend like 20-40 gold to stabilize, either from reroll or level up. If you aren't generating high amounts of gold from interest after getting smacked early, you need to learn how to econ. If you're spending gold and failing to powerspike, you need to learn when to spend your gold and why before you just blame the RNG.

This game has a metagame and consistently high ranked players. RNG can screw you short term but if you're playing consistent these problems you describe really aren't problems, they're situations you can play around.

You shouldn't just save up all the money. I think the key to the game is knowing when to spend and when to save. Sure you can win either way by getting lucky but more often than not:

If you spend too much early, you'll be too weak later.
If you save too much early, you'll have too few hitpoints and even if your composition is strong in the lategame, you'll still likely get eliminated by someone who just got lucky.

I try to save money but not at all cost. I spend my gold when there's a high chance it will improve my team significantly.

And those people who spend a ton, get lucky and roll three 3-star champions in the early rounds? Don't mind them. You have 7 opponents. One of them will surely get lucky. Once in 8 games you will get lucky. But that's not something you should take into consideration.
