Hello, my friends, how's your day going? I hope you're well. I'm trying to get back to Hive, but I think I need more time. No matter how much I try to get back, it's not easy to do. That's a topic for another post, so for now let's focus on the TFT game as you can see in the title. Set 3.5 continues and I continue to reminisce and try good things.
You can watch my gameplay video below with commentary:
The universe of this game is the Neeko Galaxy, where we start the game with two champion replicators, which means you can make the first 5 gold champion you see 2 stars. Some of these can make a big difference. For example, 2-star Gangplank, Aurelion Sol or Ekko are very powerful in some compositions.
Since the first augment is silver, I couldn't choose anything extra, but I chose the Component Buffet augment so that I can make the items I want instead of random items. With this augment, whenever you get an item piece, you get an anvil instead and you can choose what you want.
Shaco and Karma I found in the minion round gave me the idea to play Dark Star composition. I knew they were strong, but I didn't expect them to be this strong. I managed to beat even the opponents who used champion replicators and had a 5-win streak. Sorry for not remembering the English for Dark Star in the video. I kept calling it things like infinity darkness XD
Since I wanted to make Shaco 3 stars, my best option was the Heroic Grab Bag. It gives me two small champion multipliers and now if I find 6 more Shacos I can make him a 3-star straight away and save my other champion multipliers for more important things.
I was so surprised by what only 1 star Shaco did that I was able to keep my winning streak going thanks to him. I didn't expect him to be this good, so you can hear me saying Wow all over the video XD
The last augment choice, Jeweled Lotus II, was perfect because when Shaco critically damages, his ability deals more damage than normal. On top of that, champions like Jhin and, if I can find them, Xerath are also overpowered with a critical hit. This can lead to something ridiculous. In a good way for us.
I managed to get Shaco to 3 stars at this stage. It was hard and probably would have been impossible without my champion replicators. I can say I got a bit lucky. I don't think I can be beaten from here on, I was beating everyone I faced, even my opponents were losing to my bot. I think Shaco's best items are Infinity Edge, Deathblade and Hand of Justice. I didn't have the Infinity Edge and I didn't try too hard to get it, but I still managed to give him good items.
There's a composition where you only use protector and celestial champions and it's really powerful. This opponent managed to beat me by playing this composition. It's really broken and if this fun mode is going to be around for a few more weeks, it might need a little bit of balancing. Otherwise I don't think this composition can be beaten XD Maybe in the next video I will show you how to play this composition.
As strong as Shaco was in the early and mid game, he was pretty weak in the late game and I started to lose because my opponents were already doing crazy things with champion replicators and 2 stars. This opponent had a 2 star Gangplank and I actually set up to kill him in one hit but Shaco wasn't smart enough XD
Another one of the strongest compositions in Set 3.5. You just put swordsmen and boom! Suddenly you have an overpowered composition because Shen is a very strong tank and Master Yi is a champion that deals a lot of damage.
My opponent in the top two was a pretty stupid player and he was bad-mouthing me and telling me to give up, but I didn't think so. He still beat me in a row and that's how we went into the last battle.
The battle didn't go very well. You think I lost, right?
Hahahaha! Dark Star Jhin is so strong when he's alone, you wouldn't believe it! He gains 25 Attack Damage every time a teammate is slain and that's more than you think because for example in this fight 8 teammates died and he gained 200 AD. What did this cause? It allowed him to kill 4 people in one straight hit and send this loser to the lobby!
What did I learn from this game? Focusing on the game instead of talking stupid is a better decision and try to improve your composition. Don't fight with your opponent. Thanks for reading my friends, I hope you had fun. Take care and have a great day.
