Cus instead of trying to get good at a for fun RNG mode, yal just need to get better at the actual game LOL

People actually getting mad

I mean if no one is going to say RiotGames love creating a toxic community environment, then its all of you who are just pissing in your own pants for actually getting serious into this game cus you're losing LP in a game mode that barely matter in Skill Level

This comes from someone who doesn't even play ranked TFT...

Quick advice: If you don't know what the hell you're talking about, and you don't have any experience in said matter, don't try to start a discussion about it.

You have the right to hate the game mode, whatever your reasons are. But don't talk about its competitive aspect or its skill requirements if you know little to nothing about it.

Thanks.

There is no competitive aspect in a game where its almost all luck. The skill is in positioning and you can just watch a video on youtube. There cant be a so called "best player" in this game since you just have to be lucky to get an op comp.

You, too, don't play ranked TFT, so you don't know what you're talking about. Refer to my last comment. Thanks

Also, the game is not only luck and positioning. One of the hardest part of the game is knowing when to transition between comps and know when to give up on going a certain comp. The game, although screwed up by the current RNG system, still has a big skill element of decision making to it.

This becomes even more important when you have bad luck with items. Knowing how to bypass the bad RNG and make the right decisions based on what is or is not being played by other players, what units/items are available to me from the shop/PvE rounds, what state are the units in (2+ stars or not), what enemy comps have blitz, etc.

If you bypass the RNG aspect of the game, there is so much more to do and to learn from playing it competitively. As someone in D4, I can tell the difference between someone who plays the game only in normals, someone in silver, and someone in D4+. The quality of the games are so much different and the skill expression is very apparent in higher elos.

But it's nowhere near as skill expressive as the other modes. Hell, I'd prefer playing Ranked URF than that. And the worst part is they will actually get rewards at the end of the season if they get gold+, at least from what I heard.

Again, you're trying to have an opinion on the competitive aspect of TFT without actually trying it for yourself.

Every game, whether it's video games or other games like soccer or basketball, can seem less skill expressive when played at a normal " for fun " level, or not played at all. Take them to a competitive scene and you'll notice all the skills required to actually win against others and be among the best.

The same thing applies to regular League and TFT. You won't notice how the game actually requires skill until you participate in the war that is ranked. Once you get beaten by the ones better than you, even if the RNG was against them, because they are more skilled and made better decisions than you, then you will realize how skill actually matters in these games, as well!

No, it is pretty much as skill expressive as other modes. It just takes different type of skill. Do you think that there is no skill in playing games like Heartstone,Magic the gathering, chess or other similiar games?

The only skill gap in this game mode is if you have a brain or not LOL

If you think its all luck, then it just shows how little skill you have in tft.

I didn't say its all luck, i said its almost all luck. Also, is luck considered a skill to you? The only thing someone has to do to climb is to be a meta slave and learn positioning through youtube.

Also, I don't play TFT. The last time I played TFT was before ranked and it was enough to show that I hated it. I'd honestly and unironically prefer to play Legend of The Poro King for 10 hours rather than TFT for 5 hours.

Its almost all skill, not luck. Just because RNG is a factor in most outcomes doesnt mean RNG is the heaviest influencing factor when you have direct control over the RNG and what you do with it.

Can you control what you'll get? Is this a new thing? The skill is in positioning and building a good comp, and I agree, it takes skill to know how to position correctly and get a good comp against your enemies. But you need luck to get that comp in the first place, and as far as I know you can't control what you'll get.

You have indirect control via level-cost percentages, max number of unit pulls between all players, and reroll vs econ that if you play right you have more control over your build than straight rng does.

Classic.

TFT is a whole different game. You're arbitrary attacking people based on how they're playing a game and not another.

Go shout at your grandma, I bet she plays that no skill Solitaire and sucks at League.

"Arbitrarily". Next time you want to use words to pretend to be smart, at least use the proper context.

TFT rank just determines whether or not you're willing to do whatever is technically best, rather than doing what you want

i want a rengar hyper carry every game, but got 0 tier 2 rengars in the 5 games i played

can't do what i want, therefore, not fun
