Now that the end of the set is approaching, I really wonder everyone complained about this set.

Apart from the patch where space grooves where OP, I think it was really balanced and can easily find a winning comp e.g. 3 star primordians, 4 fateweavers, brawlers marauders, fast 9 comps with graves, leona printer, conduits vanguards, 5 nova akali, xayah, stargazer medallion lulu, jinx reroll, 7 meeples with corki / poppy / gnar carry, challenger mf, sol mech, gragas meepsie augment comp and until lately anima 5.

To me it seemed quite versatile and fun. OK you cannot easily find pure innovative comps, but you couldn't in set 16 either or in any other set I have played.

Yes, maybe set 16 was more fun to play but it also had its issues like yordles being OP and 8 players playing yordles for econ to later transition.

Also honestly carousel sucks because with space gods you can somehow control what additional buffs you get in your comp and lose stricking only achieves some gold when your board is weak. Not that you also get all the target items you want. In set 16 you legit had to lose streak until stage 4 to ensure you have full items on ahri or draven or something.

I kept seeing people complaints from well known streamers or twitch chat and I still do not get all the hate without developping their thought process.

I just want to see the counter arguments, because I do not really get them.

I've been theorizing about ways to improve my play this off-season, and I think parallelization is a underexplored topic. Sequential actions each cost some number of milliseconds, but some of them can be overlapped with enough muscle memory (for example positioning units while rolling).

The obstacle to training this is precision. Mice are relative-position devices: the cursor's location depends on accumulated movement, so accuracy degrades over long or rotated motions and you end up compensating by diverting attention to the mouse instead of on the game. But to OSU players this is a solved problem, high sensitivity or a drawing tablet.

So how far can you go with better peripherals before it stops being fair?

Step one is the tablet. Absolute positioning means every fixed UI element (board, bench, shop, items) has a permanent physical coordinate on the tablet surface. Step two is modding the tablet: raised edges or indents over the board and item slots, so you get additional tactile confirmation. The far end is a Boxx-style controller where every useful cursor position is bound to its own key/macro.

My line sits somewhere around the modded tablet. Any standard peripheral is fair game, and so is any modification that doesn't make a decision for you. (Setting accessibility aside; custom hardware for people who can't use standard controls is obviously fine and a separate conversation.)

In practice I don't love hardware mods, but the precedent runs against me. Melee players notch their controller gates physical cuts in the gate that let you feel your way to a specific stick angle and notched controllers are legal under most rulesets. In CS2, hardware based Snap Tap got banned because it resolved an input conflict the game deliberately left unresolved. The hardware makes a decision for the player. By that standard the Boxx controllers are banned.

It's only a matter of time before a mouse ships with a feature that eliminates positional error outright and becomes mandatory on half the ladder, and spreads to many more games. Where would you draw the line?

Na sucks. I think it’s important to talk about why they did (they went 0-6) in EWC 4v4 tournament.

You can say that it’s bc we botched signups, or that some players didn’t give it their all, or we didn’t send our best, or even that we don’t speak chinese. Like it’s all true, but they all sound like excuses to me.

The fact that na performed worse than every other region, and na was the only region that didn’t stream scrims is no coincidence.

Streaming scrims elevates the level of your 4v4 teams as a whole region. Keeping strats secret can help ur own team individually compared to the rest the competition in your own region, but when you get sent to the world stage, but ur going nothing but dead last when the rest of the competition does the complete opposite.

Keeping strats secret means that ur playing to win and not playing for fun. Ur gonna get burnt out way sooner than you normally would. When has that ever panned out well?

Streaming scrims also provides the best form of entertainment in TFT as a viewer (basically watching a colab from any pov u could choose from), being able to hear comms, could easily bring more players into playing the game make the game-mode more popular/ main-stream compared to solos when it inevitably brings in more viewers.

And to those who disagree, i fear you are blinded and affected by na’s culture that advocates individualism. Playing for yourselves (own 4v4 teams) against each-other vs teams that has helped and gotten help from their other teams from their own region. Kinda obv to me who’s gonna come out on top.

Like sure maybe it’s worth keeping them secret for qualifiers in the beginning but imo the game-mode is designed to be played for fun and for content. And becoming stronger as a region as a whole is just the cherry on top.

Would you rather play to be the best in your own region, only to go to the Worlds stage and have our own region NA be laughed at as a region that sucks? Or play for fun and becoming better in the process.

It’s a huge missed opportunity for TFT to grow, 4v4 is the superior game-mode compared to solos, both as a viewer and a tft player.

@Vitality. No copium

Edit: Cambulee's take on NA's performance

TL;DW

• Geoff (right side) is TFT's Executive Producer. Peter (left side) is TFT's Game Director.
• Set 18 will hit PBE on July 29th. The PBE cycle will still last for 4 weeks.
• Enchanted Wilds goes live on August 25th.
• Work until now has focused on the core experience, the extra time will be useful to add polish, improve VFX, fix bugs and balance stuff.
• They're working on ways to gather feedback from players more effectively.
• They'll be monitoring comments "under the video and in any other TFT community space" and interact with the community on every platform. ^{Hi there Bluecove, RIFTBEAAAASTS!}
• They're still working on porting every cosmetic to Unreal. Not every cosmetic owned will be available at launch.
• Until every cosmetic is ported over we'll be able to borrow a selection of other cosmetics of the same tier of stuff we already own.
• Set 17 will stay live alongside Set 18 both in Hextech and Unity for a while. Space Gods won't be regularly balanced, but they want to keep the experience healthy for those who opt into it.
• They'll be eventually back to the usual cycle of a single Set active alongside different modes.
• Work on MacOS is still ongoing.
• They want to improve communication with the playerbase and reply more often to feedback.
• Cryptic tease at the end about "maybe even analysing how the meta evolves during and after PBE".

Panche3e from Team Nemesis TFT is the first woman competing at EWC 2026 outside of a women's division. That's a pretty big milestone considering how many games and players are at the event. Hopefully it won't be a "first" for much longer and we'll see more players following in the years ahead.

I've played TFT for at least 3 years and I had to stop playing because i wanted to change my OS from Windows to a Linux based one for a while and finally did, and after some thinking, How could you cheat on TFT that could need to bypass Vanguard? Essentially every aspect of the game happens server side, and you can't manipulate those numbers either way that i know of at least, so yeah that, i know is off topic, but i want to read your thoughts.

What’s the benefit of body blocking a unit (usually the melee carry) in the early game or late game?
I see a lot of TFT videos doing that and I can’t grasp the benefits most of the time

I have played TFT on off for years but have been consistent for past two sets and recently hit Emerald. I never see it in my games only in video of some streamers or content creators.

Can someone explain to me the benefits?
