@@LearningTFT The whole learning how to learn and how TFT is a metaphor for life on how things keep changing from time to time all of that leading to the overall improvement to your life. Like, damn lmao
First of all, english is not my main language, so if it's feel aggressive, i'm sorry, it's not why I writing this comment. ^^' I'm platinum, so I still have a lot to learn, and trust me I tryhard for. This way, I checked your video to get a better early. But, I don't understand why there is no 3-cost in level 4 comps. Drops give 3-cost frequently, and I'm pretty sure it's important to use them to have the most powerful board, based on items of course. That's why I take all of this, and MetaTFT either, with a grain of salt. When I see on MetaTFT the best Stage 2 comp is : Ashe/Elise/Syndra/Mordekaiser (4 Eldritch), and it seems Ashe/Blitzcrank/Syndra/Mordekaiser (3 Eldritch/2 Vanguard) would be a better one just with a minor modification. It seems weird to me. Feels like it's not exhaustive, and even if it was it's not human usable because it's way too much to remember. So, my question is, what the point to all of this ? Is this give us an archetype of what works and what doesn't ? Then why not just talk with traits ? I know some units are better than others, and it's important to swap units to keep a powerful comp. I'm a bit lost. 😅 Thx ! 😁
The data is based on a reasonable sample size of units, so including 3-costs is challenging for Stage 2. In addition, 1-star 3 costs are usually inferior to 2-star 1 costs and pretty much always inferior to 2-star 2 costs, so 3 costs are far less reliable than 1 and 2 costs when trying to build a consistently strong Stage 2 and 3 board. Like you said, the number of permutations is way larger than what's even mentioned here, so we're trying to get a general sense of what's strong in the early game. That's the point of putting together the early game unit tier lists, particular at 1 and 2 cost.
@@LearningTFT Wow ! Didn't know that about 3-cost ! I checked that with units stats, and it's mind blowing. According to the champion stats I found on tftactics : 1-star Ashe/Nomsy/Jayce/Twitch : 35 DPS 2-star Ashe/Nomsy/Jayce/Twitch : 63 DPS None 3-cost 1-star is close to this (max is 45), and it's almost equal to Smolder (64 DPS). I'm pretty sure the DPS is only the auto-attacks, without spells. That why I took AD units, which are more representative I think. However, the same works for defensive stats, so it seems to be a general rule. Impressive. I really thought 3-cost (1-star) was more powerful than this. I'll pay attention in the future. Thanks a lot ! :D
Yes, I didn't notice until afterward. I'll zoom the text to be bigger next time. Sorry about that. I added links to all the boards and tiers in the description, so you can reference those as well.
Thanks for putting in all the work to prep for this video it really adds so much knowledge. Please don't worry about those who aren't prepared to learn TFT, we need 4 players to go bot 4!! Love your channel
Hey mate, love your effort. Quick suggestion for your voice recording: I think it could help to lower your noise gate a little, so your voice isn't so "snappy" anymore and doesn't cut out too often. Keep it up! :)
Thanks for your feedback and support! Can you please point me in the right direction on how to lower my noise gate? (I have no idea what that even means xD.)
@@LearningTFT It really depends on your device and software. If you use sth like OBS you will find a filter called "Noise Gate" in the sound settings. But it could also be inside your drivers or maybe even on the mic or pre-amp itself. Really depends.
Sure! My friends and I started a mobile gaming startup back in 2008 when the iPhone app store first launched. I was coming out of school then. We shipped a chess puzzles app in the first month of the app store launch. It hit Top 25 in the app store. And we made a bunch more casual games, something like 75 apps that hit Top 25 in the app store. We eventually tried to pivot to more midcore/strategy games (since that's what I love), but the market wasn't really ready back then. We even shipped a tactics game that was a precursor to clash royale & TFT, but we were again too early to the market and we didn't understand the value of async battles at that point (it wasn't really a standard model yet). We grew the team to around 40 employees and we eventually sold the company to one of the top mobile gaming publishers at the time.
Hey! Yeah, sorry about the text size. I'll zoom in to make it larger next time. The description has been updated with most of the resources referenced in the video.
Winning the early stages (2-3) can be good( you save HP and maybe can be in a win streak) but isn't being in a lose streak more easier. In my experience (just a plat player here talking) I've had good success los streak early stages then trying to win early stages to gain tempo. I feel like HP isnt very important in the early stages in TFT. I know I'm bad at the early game because my decision making is very slow and I can't exactly tell if I need to level up to preserve my win streak.
Yes, lose streaking is easier since you don't need to think. You can just full open and sac stage 2. But win streaking gives you more gold, preserves hp, and sets you up for an easier game. In general, if you're streaking, it's worth leveling to preserve streak if you think it'll make a fight diff (though this depends on scouting and being able to predict fights).
i’m not sure how much time you have on your hands but please could u edit some of these videos down i used to watch all your vids last set and they floated around the 20 min range. now every vid is 50 mins long. As much as i’d like to watch i just don’t have the time to keep up with daily 50 mins vids 😭
I think an alternative to shorter videos is to also add chapters to your videos. I personally enjoy hearing your flow of thoughts and don't think it needs excessive editing
Thanks for your feedback! It's taking me a while to put together the research, record, and publish, so unfortunately I don't have much more time to edit. If at some point, these videos get more popular and the ad revenue can cover the cost of an editor, I'll hire one. Sorry about the length! I'm prioritizing being thorough over being concise atm. Perhaps my priorities might change down the road, but right now the focus is on using my learning process to help me get better at TFT while sharing it with all of you. But the priority could change at some point to focus on video quality over trying to maintain a challenger rank.
This video is so great, and thanks for the reminder about learning, and never to start thinking we don't have much left to learn. I appreciate it
@@isabellarees7354 I'm glad you liked the video and the learning reminder. Thanks for your support!
Came for the early game comps and left with an existential crisis. Great video btw I wasn't expecting that at all, thanks for all the info.
I'm glad you liked the video! I'm curious, what triggered the existential crisis?? xD
