Next guide is out covering AUGMENT SELECTION fundamentals! Picking the wrong augment can easily cause you to bot 4 - and players rely on tier lists and overlays to pick the "best" augment far too often.
Avoid this trap and learn how you should pick augments!

New guide up this time covering ITEM ECONOMY! Learn why always greeding for the BIS items shown on your tier lists isn't always the best idea, and how you should think about item slams to avoid having a weak board despite your "perfectly" itemized carry

Been struggling to climb for days but looks like something finally clicked in the last few days.
The only difference is I got around to watching some streams so I guess that proves that watching is way more productive than spamming games #TFT

Finally made it out of Diamond and got to master but it took quite a while this set.
After I re-prioritized econ augments again the climb was pretty smooth but it was rough for a few days.

It was hard to start again from scratch with #TFT after moving on from GITCG but at least I get to celebrate these milestones again!

The patch isn't perfect but I do think once they balance the outliers Set 16 can deliver on the flex play promise.
The endgame boards might look like the same 5 cost soup, but I've had a lot of fun assembling plans in stages 3 and 4 to get me to 9 and not always the standard lines. #TFT

Finished reading over all the stuff revealed for #TFT Set 16 so far and it's... a lot.
Definitely seems like a set with a high skill cap which means I could easily be still learning new things hundreds of games in.
Which is great for creating guides, so pretty stoked!

Definitely can reward flex play since you should be able to get guaranteed board upgrades by playing the units you get and upgrade early!

Oof second #silksong steel soul run ended after a bit of carelessness. Got pretty far with this one too.
Probably run it back one more time and this time actually use Fractured Mask. Not sure why I thought it would be a good idea to not have it...

Quick update - may have noticed no stream from me yesterday. I hit some technical issues with account access and got word today they weren't able to resolve it so looks like no CBT this time around after all🥲 sorry to bait everyone.
I'll try again at the next one though!
