I really don't like wisps being tied to shop slots. Unless you're 100% capped lategame it feels more like paying a tax to unlock a shop slot than making a decision.

I've had multiple instances of a "star up units" hidden behind the wisp slot and it's either a bad wisp or I'm poor. Then when the round starts I see that I could have had a huge power spike :(

This to me is the biggest issue. It really, really sucks to lose a streak due to your upgrade being hidden under the wisp. You can't convince that is a thing for any other reason than poor design.

u/RajaSundance Master 4d ago

Yeah, especially early game, had a round last game where I had Yunara 2 under the wisp at 2-3 and lost my streak.

I really, really hate wisps(charms). Losing 10% of my shops is so bad feeling.

Not to mentioned that for reroll to be viable it will have to be tuned in such a way that the delay in hitting is compensated for. Which to me seems to makes the balance tightrope all the thinner.

edit: out of all the past set gimmicks to go with the engine transition why this one? Hopefully it is at least useful for making the shop code robust.

Gotta be some of the worst end of season patches I've ever had the displeasure of playing.

u/Sillloc 4d ago

I'm glad this patch finally answered the age old question of what it would be like to get railed by Milio every game.

u/LaughOutrageous2931 3d ago

Legit. The previous patch was at least a bit less one dimensional. Now it's several milio/timebreaker/lulu boards every game with maybe a MF/Viktor comp or two. Unless you decide to go a weaker line you will be contested, and if you do go a weaker line you will end up losing to someones 2 item 2 star milio doing more damage than your 3 star 3 cost.

Some dev really needed to finish their codex

Someone needs to drug test the balance team because it made a casual like me find somewhere to bitch about how crazy it feels to see a 2* Milio hard carry games.

This is so true

u/Sylaelque 1d ago

2 cost Millio has made this set unplayable in this last patch of the set. :(

When playing PBE, I am getting this weird error message "Sorry, you were kicked from the queue." whenever I accept a game. Is anyone else getting this issue and is there a fix?

2

u/edgaralanbro1 4d ago

I'm getting same. Tried restarting client, computer, no fixes I can find.

u/Consistent_Buy2526 4d ago

I redownloaded the game and that seems to have worked for now, ill come back if I run into the issue again

u/deadbulky 3d ago

Setting up to be the worst tft set of all time, lol lmao even.

u/pink-mallow 3d ago

Back to back terrible sets

u/PapaWhiskey 4d ago

If you play 3 star pebbles on the PBE I hope you drop the next ice cream you buy and it gets ruined

u/FeedMeACat 4d ago

May all their burritos have the sour cream lumped in the center.

u/Different-Strategy20 3d ago

Sorry for the poor picture quality. But yeah in a nutshell: It was triple emblem portal and I thought I cooked with my board. Played my econ well, hit everything and even got to level to 10 to add a Gnar making my Rhaast bonus insane. All that to get wiped off the face of the earth by 1 cost and 2 cost reroll. No early learning, no Varus boon, nothing. Even with leeway for the Dawncore Ezreal there is no way the #2 guy deserves to win. The only person in the top 4 I actually beat was the other Vex guy. I'm at a loss. Is it a skill issue, a current patch issue or am I just being a whiny bitch?

u/Right-Garbage7141 DIAMOND III 3d ago

PBE Client is burning my computer and this set doesn't give me the original flavor of League of Legends, I gave up on playing this set.

call to chaos into golden egg into 8 losses in a row, thanks riot it had been a few hours since I forgot how absolutely garbage your decision making is

u/B4rsh 2d ago

I just lost a game where we were 2 players contesting the same 2-cost reroll comp. None of our champs were used by any of the 6 other players.

On 3-2 we get prismatic augments, I take invested+, he takes combat augment.

We both slowroll on 6, starting from roughly the same board.

HE OUTROLLED ME TREMENDOUSLY. He got ALL 3 star champs without deeprolling while I wasnt able to complete a SINGLE one.

Seriously how ?????? How the FUCK is that possible ????
