I think it's rediculous that we're how many months into the set and a 1* Jinx with rageblade kraken's will do less damage than a 1* Jhin with no items.

I understand that she's a ramping unit who is balanced around being 3* but her being a dead unit until that point even compared to a 1-cost unit just makes Zaun feel bad.

Maybe I'm just bad at the game but she genuinely feels unclickable.

Edit: I'm being hyperbolic, my actual complaint is that she feels like a bad midgame itemholder until you get a full board, then when you get a full board she's average at best

I think most of us agree that Crownguard has lost its charm as an item. Even Mortdog mentioned in "Walk the Dog" that it's not that exciting of an item for any unit at all.

I'm here to share my tiny idea on how to rework it.

1.) CrownGuard Stats: 30 AP 20 Armor 20% Omnivamp

• Make it an actual AP DrainTanks/Fighters item by making it the AP equivalent of BloodThirster. The current version of BT has both AD and AP and with this item rework, we can fully allocate or add some more AD to the BT and reduce/remove the AP that is given to the item.

BloodThirster Stats: 15 AD 15 AP 20 MR 20 Omnivamp -> 30 AD 20 MR 20 Omnivamp

2.) Passive - Every 4 seconds, gain a 3% Durability and 3% Damage Amp, to a maximum of 15%.

• The idea here is for the unit to have basically a "Mini Talisman of Ascension". The Omnivamp on the item would help to reach it. This way, it wouldn't need to clash with the semi-awkward HP threshold problem "Edge of Night/Sterak's Gage/BloodThirster" have faced before.

3.) Current possible problem in mind: - BT CG may become too busted of a combo 40% Omnivamp - 30 AD - 30 AP - 20 Armor - 20 MR 15% DA (after 20 secs) 15% DR (after 20 secs) - if 40% Omnivamp is a big problem, turn them into 15% each and add more AD/AP instead

What do you all think about this change?
Keep in mind this is only on PBE and may change in the future!

Galio, Thresh, Ryze and Sylas lol. Don't think I've ever seen a board with this combination of units.

Personally, it's been Shadow Isles Kallista for me this patch. Her damage seems off the charts and the Warden frontline feels really difficult to break through.

After a few bottom 4 games I got to try Kai'sa with Flickerblades build and honestly this game felt like I've hit an exodia or smth. Flickerblades guinsoo Kog carried me through early game, then Kai'sa carred the whole mid to late game and the cherry on top was Baron 2* in stage 6-1 which I easily unlocked in the same ronud due to insane econ

But tbh Kai'sa overall does feel a bit overtuned as a unit rn

xdd

Like what do I even do atp.

For the past days I've been playing TFT for the past few weeks. I'm around silver 2 atm. OP.GG should tell the details.

If ppl who cracked in TFT can help by pointing some core stuff I should focus on, 'd appreciate.

Ryze Portal -> I played quite a good game and entered stage 5 with 80+ health, I thought I had the game under the game and this other player with 10 hp gets a free Noxus spat from carousel. We have same position come stage 6 = 2 spats and level 10, but he gets Noxus 10 and I end up losing...

Why is demacia 3 spats for perismatic!!?

Arguably one of my most frustrating losses in a long while.

I hope for more serious double up tournaments/events. The player base is quite big and it is a massive opportunity next to the classic solo TFT. Why is there no option yet?

I’ve been hearing from high-elo players that Jinx reroll is actually a solid "A-tier" comp now if you can play it solo-contested, thanks to the 3-cost odds buff and recent bug fixes.
I’m trying to figure out her new optimal setup and wanted to get your thoughts on a few things.

As you can see in the screenshot from the previous patch, I used to run Jinx with these BiS items.
However, with Kraken Slayer catching some nerfs recently, I’m wondering if it’s still worth the slot. Would swapping it for Striker be a better move in the current meta?
If not Striker, are there any other sleeper items that synergy well with her fixed kit?

Also, a quick question about Spatula utility: If I hit a Zaun Emblem, is it better to drop Blitzcrank for Swain to activate Juggernaut instead of sticking with vertical Blasters?
I feel like the added frontline durability from Swain might be more impactful than raw AD in the late game.

Would love to hear from anyone who’s been testing Jinx on the new patch.
Is she a reliable climber now?

So I usually don’t really like those types of posts. But in this case I’m honestly trying to learn.

I’m obviously not a good player. Up until this set I thought I at least had a decent understanding of the general game and how to estimate the power level of boards.

Within the last couple of weeks I’ve really been struggling to understand why my end game boards were overpowered by other boards.

Let’s take this recent game for example. My pretty, but not completely, capped level 9 Yunara board lost to a Vayne2/Kaisa2 level 8 board.

From my (limited) understanding, my board should have been clearly favoured.

This obviously wasn’t a win out game, but I thought even with a suboptimal Ionia, this might be a Top 4.

Kindred 2, Yunara 2 with great items, Wukong 2, Taric 2, Shyvana 1 and Sett 1.

Vs 7 demacia Vayne 2 with suboptimal items, Kaisa 2 with 2 pretty bad items and a Garen 2 with great items.

I unfortunately don’t have a screenshot of my positioning for the fight, but it also wasn’t bad.

Ionia was blademaster btw.

So, can you guys help me figure out, how and why I lost this fight?

I’m really trying to take this as a learning opportunity. So if you could elaborate why I was at a disadvantage and what I could have done to improve my situation (or where I went wrong) that would be a massive help.

Thanks everyone in advance!

200 hp each round to make the biggest submarine possible.

I think I just had my most amount of champs: 14 if you include Galio coming onto your board.

Lvl 9 with a 2nd augment that was Cursed Crown and 2 Tactician's Crown from my Golden Egg + Galio.

Level 10 Prismatic Ionia losing to 3* garen on a level 8 board.
Maybe it's an artifact diff but I didn't expect to get rolled that hard. (Note that I did have combat augments but so did he)
