How to play around opening encounters for ANY set | TFT Beginner Guide

Guide for opening encounters is out!

While some encounters have little impact on how you play #TFT, others require a pretty big shift in strategy. If you don't adapt, you're likely losing placements and may bot 4 without knowing why.

Why you're being MISLEAD by AUGMENT tier lists and ratings | TFT Beginner Guide
YouTube video by Tactician's Institute Why you're being MISLEAD by AUGMENT tier lists and ratings | TFT Beginner Guide

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

Cash out savings on 4-2, level to 8 immediately and then roll down 20 and hit T-Hex 2 right away this game was kind of illegal #TFT

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.

Tactician's Institute hit 1K subs last night! Thanks to everyone who supports the channel.

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!

Most players agree that flex is the best way to play and climb in #TFT, but do you know actually how to play it? Well what better time to learn than Set 16! Join me in Part 1 of 2 of my flex play guide where I cover the often overlooked Stages 1 and 2

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

I hope at some point they buff this augment but then forget to change the name and the augment is the most blatant lie ever #TFT

The intentional design philosophy to prefer level 8+ comps is really interesting. I'm a little sad as someone that likes reroll, but I'm hopeful having more focus will create more fun games than necessarily trying to "perfectly" balance all the different styles

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!

The beginner guide is a great jumpstart if you haven't watched it already - teaches a lot of the basics so you understand whats going on.

Otherwise, try following a comp guide and build towards a known board rather than use random units!

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 all๐Ÿฅฒ sorry to bait everyone.

I'll try again at the next one though!

I got into the HNA beta! Super excited to get to try this for the first time and to see what Hoyo does with a TFT game. Really hoping to see it succeed and have a competitive scene
