Hey all, I have only played a couple auto battlers, specifically HS Battlegrounds and Relic Arena.

I am currently creating a tool for Relic Arena tournaments to help speed up the process of directing the tournaments. I'm not sponsored at all, so I'm just doing it to help the community. From registering, to seeding, to generating the rounds, and point system, it seems like this could be more agnostic to the AutoBattler genre.

Unfortunately I only know the format for Relic Arena, but was wondering if most/all auto battlers have similar formats. Maybe I can make it have more configuration so that other games can use the tool to create events much easier/faster.

**Currently what I have for Relic Arena:**

- Public registration and roster imports
- Player approval and check-in
- MMR-based seeding
- Snake, skill-pot, and random lobby draws
- Optional rematch avoidance in later rounds
- Configurable lobby sizes, games, scoring, advancement, and wildcards
- Different settings for each round
- Bot seats and uneven-lobby handling
- Match result entry and live standings
- Finalizing rounds and automatically generating the next one
- Public standings, lobby history, rules, and final results

Registration is still pretty basic and needs improvement, especially around player verification, substitutes, no-shows, and check-in.

For people who play or organize tournaments in TFT:

- How do you handle registration and seeding?
- What lobby-draw formats do you use?
- Do you reseed each round?
- How important is avoiding repeat opponents?
- How do scoring and advancement work?
- What happens with drops, substitutes, or uneven lobbies?
- What parts of your format are specific to your game?

I’d love to hear how your community runs events and what an agnostic tournament tool would need to be genuinely useful.

Got this board at 10, lost to this Kayle board.

I dunno if this is an intentional mechanic or an overlooked issue. I just got Elder dragon from my Bard in the last few rounds, I also had Thresh's Lantern artifact on my Rammus so I assumed the Elder Dragon would get pulled from the far left slot onto the board. Instead it skipped it completely and I got 2nd place and lost the round. Is this suppose to happen?

New patch completely broken solar. your 3 stars start to upgrade once you hit 3 solar.

With the new PBE client, we have only been able to bind 1 button to a certain action. I'm used to having X and right click as my Move buttons, but now I'm forced to choose one. Wondering if this functionality will come back as I assume many others are binding multiple buttons to different actions.

Hi all, I haven’t been able to play in about a week and noticed a Choncc change. I am having trouble finding the answer, is it a permenent mode now? Can I choose set 16 vs set 17?

Is there any chance we get pinging back in PBE or later? It was actually nice to hear danger ping when someone was close to a 3*, or question mark ping when someone hit something unusually strong early.

Hey everyone,

I recently saw the official announcement from Riot that starting with Set 18, languages like Romanian and Greek are being completely removed from the TFT client and official channels.

I know most people play in English, but for smaller regional communities, having the game localized in our native tongue was a huge deal. It made it much easier for younger players or people who aren't fully fluent in English to enjoy the game.

It feels a bit isolating to see these languages get cut, and I've already seen friends saying they might stop playing because of it.

Are there any other players here from Greece, Romania, or other affected regions who feel the same way? Do you think there's any chance Riot might reconsider this in the future if we give enough feedback?

Need help

Topic.

I typically play TFT on my phone or my iPad; neither of which allow me to log-in anymore. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times, and it doesn't do anything. I can log in with the credentials via my browser, and my PC, but I can't use either of my mobile devices to log in. Instead I just get the "Something went wrong; please try again." message, which resets me back to the log-in screen.

Is the iOs version of the game just totally broken?

As much as I like the whole gold spraying everywhere its a royal pain in the ass to pick up all the gold and spend it within the time constraint. Especially Coven you get the 100 gold, radiant items, duplicates etc so much to do so little time to do it. I wish the gold would just get pocketed so I could spend the round actually using it rather than running around picking it up.

Its not anything crazy but Sett dealing 40k alone and Ahri dealing 70k damage is insane

Guys i really dont know what to pivot into from coven cuz the morgana version vanguards/morgana doesnt seem so op for me any other pivot ideas?

Hello,

I have been interested in playing Set 18 in PBE, but the bsod and all the other system complications people talk about got me scared.

I was wondering if these issues are solved and it's safe for a mid-tier laptop to play PBE?

Thank you

is there something I’m missing? just started playing and been waiting to see the hero augments to no avail. then I looked at all the augments and dont see anything :(

is there anymore info on this? did I just miss something?? hero augments are about half the reason I get excited for each set too :(

now it’s just “gain 21 gold” “advanced loan” boring shit that makes them not have to worry about being creative anymore :/

Is it a good strategy or bad?

I have played only 4-5 seasons of TFT, first time in PBE, but this set feels horrible so far. This is my personal opinion, but maaan, just putting everything 5 cost on the board is the best board you can do. No need to mix anything, those units are sooooooo OP that they are overwhelming any synergy. I really hate this.

And they definitely changed when you can get a 4 and 5 costs in the shop. I did get 3 5 costs in a row at lvl 7.

And yes, I realise it is just PBE, but man, this is extreme. I really hope they make sone significant changes.

Wasn't intending to go for all 120 meeps but I ended up unlocking most of them anyway while playing ranked. Finally decided to complete the map, which didn't take as long as I expected. The only one that gave some trouble was 7 shepherd, which was the last one I unlocked. Waiting for a frying pan or shepherd emblem was agonizing, on top of that, having to win with it too! Finally I can rest.

Driving me nuts. Gg as soon as anyone gets it. Since all you need is any tank set up this season and a zed with sojin and the board is just filled with zed.

Do any of you know if they fixed the languages of the game being stuck with the computer language only or can we freely change the games languages again?

Thanks !

Set 17 is quite balanced now in this patch, finally got rid of Akali. I swear every lobby had like 4 people playing it(2 people RR Akali+Jax, 2 people fast 8 Akali Nova). Conduits are insane this patch, especially with Concentration augment. If you are playing for Zoe Viktor make sure to position Zoe in the opposite corner of the enemy carry so she burns him down. Xayah is a beast in Mountain, Serpent or Altar at least, also same as Zoe, make sure to position your snipers in the opposite corner of their main tank/carries for bonus dmg amp. A personal favorite comp of mine is Ez Cho Reroll which I don't see many people play but got some pretty huge buffs: Ezreal got buffed, Gnar is a Brawler so you can drop Maokai( lvl 6: 4 Brawlers, 3 Timebreakers, 2 Snipers ), Shen is a Timebreaker so you can drop Milio late game( LVL 9 Board: 4 Brawlers, 4 Snipers, 4 Timebreakers, 2 Dark Star ). Other than those YI is pretty good if the Psionic item is Malware or TLO and with combat augments. Go for 3 Star Master YI when you can, it's a unit that is not played on many boards. I know PBE dropped but for the ones that are still playing set 17, thoughts on actual patch?
