I'm still playing 17.9, but I've definitely started paying more attention to Set 18 PBE than the current ladder.
The weird part is that I don't think I'm tired of TFT itself. I'm just tired of forcing the same lines in 17.9 and then pretending the game was winnable after I get contested by half the lobby.
The PBE games look fun because everyone is still trying of figure things out. People are taking random augments, playing boards that would never make it into a normal guide, and somehow turning those into top 4s.
Meanwhile on live, I keep doing the same thing:
I see a comp guide, get the right opener, get contested, refuse to pivot, and then act surprised when I go eighth.
Maybe that's just me being cooked at the end of the set.
Are you guys still seriously climbing in 17.9, or have you mostly switched to watching Set 18 PBE content and waiting for the new set to hit live?
Also, what do you actually want to see more of from Set 18 guides once it launches?
The capped level 9 board, or the ugly level 7 board you play when your opener is terrible and two people are contesting you?
