HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR ELO – TFT Guide

You have no idea what to play in this meta? You get stuck because of  “hell-elo”? Or your elo is running down faster and faster? So you definitely ought to keep reading this post, as I’m going to show you some ways to improve your elo. Though I’m not an extremely high-ranked player, I’m sure that these tips will help you a lot. Alright, let’s begin. 

DO NOT THINK: “I WILL USE …. TEAM-COMP THIS GAME” BEFORE THE GAME GET STARTED. 

Most of new players think what to play at the beginning. If you are lucky, you can use that team-comp throughout the match and win easily. If not, you probably can be in 8th place and definitely need a new keyboard or smartphone. But that does not mean you can use any team-comp you want. You should consider to use some trending team-comps like Dark Star – Sniper, Brawler Blaster, Star Guardian-Soccerer, Celestial Protector,… or you can also find an effective team-comp of yourself, but if your elo is getting lower, I honestly advise you not to do this. Here are some trending team-comps: 

CHOOSE CAREFULLY WHAT TO PICK UP IN THE FIRST CAROUSEL 

In the first carousel, you can pick up whatever you want without being arranged in an queue from the last place player to the first place one, so you have to choose carefully. I highly recommend you to pick up Chain Vest because it can be combined into trending items like Guardian Angel or Red Buff. B.F Sword or Recurved Bow are also some good choices (Infinity Edge, Guardian Angel, Giant Slayer, Spear of Shojin, Guinsoo, Last Whisper,…) 

KEEP YOUR HP AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE 

Maybe you are wondering that why do I say that while you can use “losestreaks” to earn more money and necessary items. I agree with you, but in this meta, you only should follow this way in Medium Legends Galaxy. If not, please don’t (PLEASE!). So how to keep your HP always high? Firstly, use “early-game” team-comps like Cybernetic, Rebel or Star Guardian. Secondly, use items early to strenghthen your units. There are many strong items at early game, such as Red Buff, Morellonomicon, Sword Braker,… Lastly, PRAY! 

ROLL CORRECTLY 

The “reroll” key is literally similar to smoking, because once you get started, it’s extremely difficult to stop. So, how to reroll correctly and when you should to reroll? It’s up to what team-comp you play! If you are playing Celestial Protector, you have to use most of your money to reroll at level 5 and level 7, because this team-comp’s units are Tier 2 and Tier 3. If you still have no idea why do you have to do that, please check this sheet:  

 As you can see, the percentage of Tier 2 units at level 5 is highest (40%) and so does the percentage of Tier 3 units at level 7 (40%). Conclusionally, the time you have to reroll much depends on your team-comp. 

BE CAREFUL OF ZEPHYR AND BLITZCRANK 

As you know, Zephyr and Blitzcrank can completely make you lose your LP. Zephyr unables one of your units to do anything, so the target is your carry unit (usually this way). It sounds frustrating, but Blitzcrank will probably crash your keyboard if your are careless because he can pull your carry unit to him and his teammates can kill your carry unit without any difficulties. So, how to counter them? About Zephyr, you have to check your opponents every single round and predict that who you will meet next round and change your carry unit’s position. And about Blitzcrank, you just need to put your carry unit between two “less-important” units and your carry unit will be safe. Here’s an example:  

In the picture, Kayle and Lucian are you carry units, Blitzcrank and Ezreal are “less-important” units, so I put Kayle and Lucian between Blitzcrank and Ezreal. If you don’t enjoy this tip, a Quicksilver can easily solve your problem. 

SMALL TIP (I will show you an example to make it easier to understand): You have a B.F Sword and Sparring Gloves and you want to give Jhin an Infinity Edge, but Jhin is having a Chain Vest, so what do you have to do to give him an IE? Very easy, you just need to buy a random unit from the shop, give it the IE and then sell it, you will have an IE without putting B.F Sword and Sparring Gloves in turn into Jhin. All you have to do now is put the complete IE into Jhin. 

So this is the end of the post. What do you think? Do you have any ideas or questions for me. Please don’t hesitate and leave a comment now! Hope you will improve your elo and don’t have to buy a new keyboard (lmao).
