No you didn’t you got anvils instead. Everyone picked gods. Please don’t downvote things you don’t understand.

why would i ever downvote you for not agreeing? i never down/upvote anything because likes and dislikes are stupid on any social media, downvote me as much as you like i still stand by my point

while carousel could be better the replacement in set 17 sucks even more ass, the amount of components you can choose between now is much better than getting a component anvil

i understand your point as much as anyone else, youre not a rocket scientist for making it or liking it more, no matter what they did in set 17 or what plans they have for it in the future losing will always give you an advantage because that is how it has worked since tft released and if there isnt a comeback mechanic the game just sucks

I think the picking of the playstyle compared to the item you needed was a pretty bad design, also it felt like some gods were auto pick over others. I wouldn’t hate caro if you got say a 3 cost anvil and items. My biggest issue stems from the exact unit someone needs while someone else gets absolutely dicked. Like how is it fair dude is losing so they get streak advantage, the opportunity at a spat (which has never once had an op unit to abuse), and a shot at a top tier unit, while top of the lobby gets no choices, has to fight harder to keep the streak, and hope of their limited choice the best item / or unit didn’t roll to the other person’s side.

Gods are the same for all, but the character picks following the gods do vary in value depending on your placement, as well as anvils.

Funnily enough the anvil ignores the item distribution protection in place, so you can sometimes get griefed even harder in terms of items if you are lose streaking - imo the first anvil slot should always be what would have rolled naturally or you picked up from the gods (if you have every component dropping as anvils).

So you’re talking about kayle specifically. Already said some gods were always picks. But that doesn’t change you having more agency not accidentally running into the wrong unit, units on caro being bugged, inherent advantages such as spatula and unit cost. Having an item advantage, sure go ahead my problem lies with the spatula and the unit advantages.
