I really want to get good as twisted fate. I feel like he's one of the difficult champions to play in my point of view. Should I rush Lich Bane first or another item? Any help would be appreciated.

In terms of general itemization, TF players normally try and rush Lich Bane first as it synergizes well with him, though really if you don't want LB first (weird but I do this sometimes) get Sheen and start building other items that you want. TF is really reliant on his two spell burst to kill people ( his w stun into q and maybe if you're lucky you can auto the guy) so you never really see a TF with a lot of kills or winning lane often. You also want to stick to building damage items on him as he scales decently, and building a pure defensive item on him is more for if you are losing really hard, like 0/5+.

Also most people don't tell you but his W Pick a Card has its own personal timer and still moves even when on cooldown so if you want to show off learn to keep time in your head of which card will appear next. They always rotate in the same order. Adding to this his W can also be used while cc'd, as in reactivated, and mid ult.

But yes always keep an eye on the minimap because TF is also an easy prey for ganks, even with his one gold card stun. Also use blue card on towers, dragon, baron, and last hitting to keep him mana up and deal more bonus damage. Red + q is your best friend for waveclear, and gold is a fairly low CD stun, just be careful about running out of mana as his W can eat it up pretty fast. Also one more thing TF is a bit team relyant especially when ganking with his ult as you need team members to tell you if certain bushes are warded or not.

Personally I find him a bit immobile so Ludens as well as LB helps to get him moving around the map as well as a touch of CDR, though I don't know how much that even helps. I also build a bit of AD on him but I'm weird when it comes to build cause I played him support for a time period. : p

But all in all take the time to check out some guides on him on youtube and you should have a decent base to start learning him better.

Good luck and I'll see you around the Rift maybe. : )
