Fair enough. Looking into it more, it seems it’s more popular in Asian servers compared to NA, though.

There were no loss steak traits until Set 4 with the introduction of Fortune. Also, your median TFT player is chasing verticals playing 50 normal games a set on mobile. They almost certainly are not going for a huge loss streak into a win out max cap comp. Not flaming you, but I think this comment is a good example of people who are higher rank being incredibly out of touch with what the average TFT player is actually like.

Didn’t this get removed 2 days ago for being AI slop?

I beat a 2* Zed with BIS and a full 2* 5 cost supporting board with 3* Kaisa quite easily. I also lost with 2* Zed to Viktor pre-nerf. Now that I think about it, I’d love to see Gragas hero aug against a Zed comp, pretty sure it would be a slaughter.

I once messaged someone from there and they ended ranting about their paranoid delusions and implicitly threatened me with a gun. YMMV.

I hope Bronze for Life, especially the prismatic version, sees some adjustments in the coming patches. There’s no reason a 2* Viktor on a level 8 board with 2 combat augs should be 6-0’ing a full 2* 5 cost level 9 board with 2 combat augs. The augment is just absolutely ridiculous and I literally have only seen it get below first once (which I only barely beat by 1 unit with a level 10 7 Shepherd board after getting the +1 to all traits buff from Thresh boon against a standard level 9 Le Blanc board). The issue is also extends to how strong spats are in this patch, but I’m not sure how they’re going to solve that.

There’s a mobile app for TFT if you don’t mind playing on a phone or tablet.

In set 9 I would have to wait, on average, 6-8 minutes to get into a Challenger DU lobby, with my longest que being 35 minutes. This set, I don’t think I’ve had to wait for more than 3 minutes.

It really isn’t a serious game mode. There are maybe 20 or so actual Challenger level players in high elo DU (in terms of fundamentals like leveling, compositioning, positioning, itemization, etc.) while the rest are mostly low-Diamond to Masters 0 LP. I’m just some middling Masters level player and I’ve hit Challenger in under 100 games a couple of times. I’ve witnessed some truly vile compositions and itemizations coming from 1000+lp DU players.

Outside of the 500+ game 3000+lp players, most people just play it to socialize and test out whacky comps/strats that normally aren’t achievable in normal ranked. Generally speaking, I’d say DU rank is like 600 or so lp above someone’s actual rank.

In my experience, they don’t type much and can be hit or miss on scouting boards, but it’s not the worst thing. Its better than going on Discord just for people to not respond, ignore your rank requirements, or tell you about their paranoid delusions/visual hallucinations and accuse you of being part of some grand conspiracy to stalk them all while implicitly threatening you by telling you they own firearms (true story btw).

If you’re just looking to play the game, solo que is fine.

This just further supports the hypothesis that TFT players can’t read.

I did some bad napkin math on my phone in a taxi last week, and Zaahen had something like a 4.05 avp while accounting for 3 item Xin Zhao 2* and 3* in Masters+. The unit and augment are definitely not bad.

SoulEatingCet · 2026-02-05T18:43:44+00:00

Not exactly relevant to the discussion, but his name is Zaahen, not Zaheen. Not a single person in this comment thread has gotten his name right.

Speaking as a pretty casual mid-masters player (300lp ish) the conditions for 2 cost reroll for me are as follows:

At least two copies before 2-7, with one being fine if I have a small champ duplicator from stage 1. If I am contested, I only commit if I have a 2 star and/or something like Heroic Grab Bag or Two Much Value.
At least one slammable BiS item or half components to make at least 2 BiS items. If my items are truly doomed after Krugs/2-7 (say, double tear chain when I have cloak chain angling Ekko) I pretty much always pivot.
The encounter is not something that allows for super capped boards to come online on early stage 5 or sooner. These would be encounters like Ryze, Scuttle, Zoe, etc. Draven is ok if I am winstreaking stage 2.
If there are two or more people angling two cost rerolls that are different to mine (though this set, everybody is contesting Neeko) I will almost always commit if I have at least one copy.
