Anyone have tips? Last meep in my star atlas 😅. Been grinding in Pengu for it but not sure if there’s a better way.

Just need someone to tell me I'm not the only one, and I have been here since set 1 (only ever skipped 1 set).

The luckiest I have been was when I got 5 Medallions, and when I finally saved up to 10 of them, I don't know what to buy. 0.3% my ahh

I really wanted to play fanservice xayah and rakan but is it not possible now?

Even if primordians are not my carries, it's hard for me to justify throwing away three 3-star champions to find champions who suit the role of my actual carries. Do you think it's usually worth giving up on them when you no longer need the econ?

Just posting to share my experience. I have enjoyed climbing this set. Recent patches have been very well balanced and fun to play.

I have enjoyed playing different comps depending on the situation. In the last 20 games, I have played Shepherds, Dark Star Bard, Ezreal Chogath reroll, Lulu reroll, Gnar printer, Jinx reroll, Asol Mighty Mech, Brawler Master Yi, Stargazer Xayah, Twisted Fate reroll, Space Groove Riven and Corki Riven.

I like when the sets feel less chaotic and more stable. I enjoyed playing set 14 too and reached Masters for the first time then (didn't play very many sets before that). I hated set 15 because of the crazy fruits and backline access issues. I didn't get the chance to try set 16.

This is the profile, just in case: https://tactics.tools/player/na/xls235

Disclaimer I'm not a good player by any mean I sit around mid-emerald ranking. I've been playing casually for the past month ish (last time was the very early sets).

Right now there's like 2-3 ''S tier'' comps and all the other comps are not able to compete. Even the early set comps like Corki aren't able to constantly finish top 3 anymore. There's always 3-4 people per lobbies fighting to make space groove and holding champions hostage on the bench.

How is that fun ?

I remember it was the same issue years ago when TFT first released ... Why is Riot so hellbent on making 2-3 good comps and everything else is not good enough unlike other auto-battlers like autochess or legion TD 2 ? And than there's 1 primordian and 1 dark star (if someone got lucky with emblem) ....

For a while we had a bunch of ''for fun'' comps with augments like explosive gragas, bonk nasus and bonk jax but even those aren't able to finish 1st anymore against the S tier except if you're super lucky and get everything to 3 stars ...

I preface this that it’s currently 430AM here (can’t sleep) and about 230 AM server time. I’m diamond 1 and playing on iOS hour ago could get a game fine all night between 30 seconds and 4 minutes for a game. But now I’ve been in queue for one 15 minute session and another 15 minute session (decide to reset at 15 mins). Now when I queue on mobile I flick between reddit and the TFT queue, since you can’t minimise it and get notified (not sure why this isn’t a thing, this has never been an issue so I’m assuming it should be causing these insane queues.

So my questions are -

Should I be resetting the queue earlier than 15 mins

Will I have better luck no minimising the app (don’t normally miss them just not getting them)

Recently I’ve been getting queued with challenger/gm and master, I have been on a bit of a tear recently and playing well but not sure if it’s limited player base in Oce or my MMR is cooked.

Is there a site to check total active player base in queue or something similar ?

Sorry for formatting its late and I’m on mobile
