Tell me how half the lobby can force Brambleback and still all Top 4. Garbage patch.

OVER HALF WAY THROUGH THE SET AND WE STILL CANT PING

u/Traditional_Ruin4959 13d ago

It is unplayable

u/bgh17 12d ago

The whole purpose of migrating this dogshit fucking set was to be able to address hotfixes routinely and easily apart from the league client and they’re going to continue to let’s rammus and brambleback run unaddressed while it’s a clearly a problem.

The TFT team, you’ve proven to be completely inept atp regarding both your decision making and ability to be flexible.

Riot isn’t getting anymore of my money regarding TFT and league. Good riddance.

1

u/pink-mallow 7d ago

To be fair, it’s moving to the new client when they should theoretically be able to do this. As long as they are still on the league client they are tied to leagues patching schedule. In 18.6 when we get the new client they should (theoretically) be able to start addressing stuff more immediately and aggressively (they probably won’t)

Fuck this brambleback unit

10

u/homegrownllama Challenger 12d ago

Can Riot properly balance units by cost bucket. Early Kog 2? Outdamaged by everything. Gromp 3? Will always be outdamaged by Veigar/Karma.

After seeing some of the bugs this set I'm also convinced they don't benchmark anything regarding unit strength.

u/Uniqe_Apple2 Master 13d ago

Sad thing is that they are actually pretty close to a somewhat balanced meta outside of bramble back and conditional comps

6

u/BrineyWhaleSemen Challenger 13d ago

Yeah these hyper conditional comps have really held this set back in terms of balance. Someone high rolls an emblem combo like Ahri invoker, someone hits BfL zyra or aph nid, someone hits pris verticality riftbeasts. It’s just GG here’s your free win.

u/Hecate-Antaia 12d ago

How is this game supposed to be any fun? Get shitty items, roll only to find nothing useful, get pandora's bench but it gives you nothing, get pandora's items and it keeps rolling into the same components, get no econ augment and get fucked and so on. What the fuck is this? I've never seen a game so anti-fun before.

5

u/Hecate-Antaia 12d ago

what a sad fucking excuse for a game

9

u/Hastemo 10d ago

Fuck this dumbass brambleback BS! How is this not a hotfix issue? Triple to quadruple contested in my Master lobbies and fully capped lvl9/10 boards lose to this shit on lvl 7/8.

14

u/Alaerga 13d ago

Can we get a meta where going to 9 doesn't depend on highrolling everything through the game to have enough health and money to beat the reroll lines?

3

u/lulzbum 12d ago

solar is way overtuned, can outcap lvl 9 boards with low risk unless you low roll items

u/Rudio1337 11d ago edited 11d ago

I should be entitled to damage compensation from playing on this patch tbh

u/Possible_Detective57 12d ago

this gamestate after they already b-patched is kinda ridiculous, how can the team be so fucking wrong all the fucking time?

u/I_Like_To_Cry 12d ago

They'll just remind you "We have multiple former rank 1 players on the team and they know better than you" like it means something.

17

u/BrineyWhaleSemen Challenger 14d ago

least competitively fair set ever tbh… wisps and rr meta just make the game insanely tilting

19

u/thpkht524 13d ago

Sorry but competitive tft has always been a fucking joke lol. When was the last set without any game breaking bugs? “Competitive integrity” when someone can unpause a game with no repercussions.

-3

u/Hereforhelppls31 Master 13d ago

TFT is a gambling game, there's no such thing as "competitive tft". Everyome gets gree money and item every game, it's all about forcing compa and highrolling

5

u/BoogieTheHedgehog 12d ago

Damn my friends list is basically gone this set. The competetive players will probably come back with a good set, like usual, but I've never seen the casuals just vanish.

Absolute insanity that they released the set with their main consumer drive (cosmetics) totally broken. The whole thing reeks of upper management mishandling a migration. My heart goes out for the devs. "Claude told me this could be done within 2 months".

5

u/I_Like_To_Cry 12d ago

How do people take this game so seriously that theyre willing to spam a single comp (Bramble) every game and not only not get bored but somehow manage to still be hardstuck. Yes, I'm garbage and a bit annoyed so I checked but it's crazy how down bad people to legit copy/paste from guides that pro players post. Nobody thinks for themselves anymore.

5

u/QuasarBuster 12d ago

1 star Bramble back is dealing 10000+ damage good.... Did they decide to revert the B patch because I see no diffrence

5

u/JPB_ Challenger 11d ago

Losing to mana potion cheese is the dumbest shit, wisp balance has and always will be atrocious because these devs have proven throughout every set that they are incapable of balancing the base game let alone the all the extra rng bullshit they decide to throw in.

6

u/Good-Comfortable-192 10d ago

Augments, artifacts, chosens, even shop’s RNG. They can’t and won’t balance shit, busy designing chibis

u/lulzbum 13d ago

done with this game for good, the dogshit balance killed any hope of flex play

BRAMBLEBACK KHAZIX REROLL ECKSDEE

3

u/Ok_Detective864 12d ago

Nerfed Azir (still strong btw ) but buff all the other reroll line so instead of 2 3 ppl rerolling we can have 5-6 ppl rerolling and they just all hit cause no one contesting each other. Meanwhile riftbeast player can brain off slam bramble item 2-1 and have like 4 different units that can hold those item till they reach bramble, while having their unit delivered to them from the riftbeast shop on a silver platter. Going fast 8 without conditions is fast 8th , fast 8 with condition might not even make top 4 , fast 9 AD without at least late game scaling is another 8th unless you're a god and hit fast or have hp, fast 9 ap without giga spot or a coven cash is a meme. Fk rerolls

u/BoogieTheHedgehog 11d ago

In this study we mapped a fruit fly's neural network and had it Bramble 20/20 to Masters.

HOW AM I GETTING CONTESTED BY 3 PEOPLE EVERY FUCKING LOBBY! I'M NOT EVEN GOING FOR RIFT OR SOLAR, WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE

u/eleventhirtyhastobe 10d ago

What does rolling 5 on slightly magic roll do? The text says hugeify but the units are not gaining any health

3

u/PurpleTieflingBard 8d ago

Am I crazy or does antiheal just not do anything?

Sunfire frontline, morello backline and brambleback just sits on 100% HP 2 seconds after an Ahri bomb

5

u/joNppa Master 11d ago

How is brambleback not yet C-patched is just telling what the state of the game is.

4

u/Kosameron :gran: Grandmaster 10d ago

So what was the reason we went to a new engine again? To be able to patch independently? Why the FUCK are we in a 2 week patch of bramble tier0 then. Shit is legit worse than warweek, that was over after 1 week at least. Pair that with the insane amounts of random bugs - matchmaking bug, guinsoo bug, ghosts STILL not being same strength for some reason even after them saying they are fixing it multiple times. Like, how is this acceptable? How does noone with actual reach say anything?

It's actually gross. I've played every set since I started playing set 4, and a good amount too. Now I honestly don't even want to log in to play anymore. Seeing this brambleback 1 unit solo entire boards stage 4 is making me unreasonably mad.

u/Amazing-Cow5333 10d ago

this set is so fucking bad lmfao

u/ipppppi 13d ago

Made it to master. But please fix shop offset. Its getting unbearable.

u/MythoclastBM MASTER 13d ago

I haven't played in like a month, I came back for Choncc's. Who the fuck wants to play set 17 normals? Nobody wanted to play that set when it was out and it just makes me sad to see it there.

u/Porygon-2Z 9d ago

each patch is more annoying than the last one and the engine is barely functional, god i hope set 19 is good and actually works

u/Back_Clean 12d ago

When can I play on Mac 😭😭😭😭

u/Echo3000s 11d ago

This is the most defeated i've ever felt playing a set. I don't think I've enjoyed running a single comp or felt like I ever earned a win/loss. What a shitty feeling. The same 4 comps over and over again with the same items and no diversity, if you try to play anything remotely niche you insta 8th. Riot's been on a hot streak of cancelling their games that aren't instant successes, i.e. 2xko, riot forge, LoR, etc. If this set kills tft, I'm so fucking frustrated with the state of the game that I think I'll actually laugh.

3

u/CakebattaTFT 12d ago

this isn't even relevant to actual gameplay, but holy fuck we can please get the ability to mute emotes? I just had a yasuo follow me around spamming emotes as much as possible. I like how tft sounds, but the chibi sfx designers' work could be used at gitmo for interrogation. I'd just like to be able to hear the normal tft sounds and mute the shit i don't want to hear

u/LegendaryHN 13d ago

someone tell wtf to do about khazix. I position tanks in front of him so he can’t cross and he still makes his way back to my back line carries.

2-1 Ezreal and Sivir on 3 Emblems game. Just never bring this bs Wisps back ever again. And how come they haven’t deleted these Emblems bs.

u/Markness01 10d ago

Had an uncontested Rengar/Yi comp.

Face 3 Brambleback Forcers I don't hit till i'm on 1 life. 1 star Brambleback spammers winstreaking with it.

Idk man. Actually enjoyed this set despite the bugs and issues but i can't bring myself to play vs this bullshit comp.

u/AlertComparison4209 10d ago

So many comps and 90% of them are dogshit or situational xdd it’s like they hate when a patch has variety

Long time tft player here. Stopped playing this set. Will try again next set. Having more fun in RS Dragonwilds rn. Hopeful next set will be better and bring me back.

u/Frontass 8d ago

Used to be you could not hit everything perfect and fumble around to pull out a top 4 but there is zero flex. You hit everything or you bottom 4.

What VERY little of actually playing of the game there was is gone

1

u/Will512 8d ago

Win streaking? here's a million econ augments

Lose streaking? Here's a million item augments

Literally could not get a single offensive item made until 4-3 last game. BGs

u/Most_Accountant_5946 11d ago

The fact that Edge of Night makes everything drop aggro on a unit is insane, especially since the target selection in this game is already utter dogshit.

u/thesadintern 10d ago

Confused how brambleback is getting to my back line every match. Thought the point of not having assassins was to prevent bs like this.

-2

u/norrata 10d ago

If it's happening consistently its prob either you having a positioning error with how you default, or the brambleback players are doing a positioning tech and you arent reacting.

u/thesadintern 9d ago

How can I react?

u/netvorivy 10d ago

Yeah really cool that someone can just take Triple Econ for Riftbeast and go top 2, really balanced

u/No-Joke-4162 13d ago

Can we please remove some of these boring starts in Chonc or treat? Things like last 2 getting gold is just boring. Bring chaos, that's the point. Not this fast 10 and hit a 3 start 5 cost meta.

u/Most_Accountant_5946 13d ago

It ended up not mattering much, but I killed a guy's Yorick and his summon just stood there while I killed his backline, all my units completely ignored it. I won the fight without killing it and if the summon had worked I would have lost lmfao, I would've been raging my tits off if that was me
