Fast 8 has become the default way to play TFT, and Set 18 has been no exception - with both early patches being primarily dominated by 4 cost compositions. In this lesson I break down common mistakes players make when trying to play Fast 8 for the first time! youtu.be/UP5lMYh9c5M

Been struggling to climb for days but looks like something finally clicked in the last few days. The only difference is I got around to watching some streams so I guess that proves that watching is way more productive than spamming games #TFT

Blep @professorblep.bsky.social · 20/12/2025

Finally made it out of Diamond and got to master but it took quite a while this set. After I re-prioritized econ augments again the climb was pretty smooth but it was rough for a few days.

The patch isn't perfect but I do think once they balance the outliers Set 16 can deliver on the flex play promise. The endgame boards might look like the same 5 cost soup, but I've had a lot of fun assembling plans in stages 3 and 4 to get me to 9 and not always the standard lines. #TFT

I hope at some point they buff this augment but then forget to change the name and the augment is the most blatant lie ever #TFT

Blep @professorblep.bsky.social · 17/11/2025

Finished reading over all the stuff revealed for #TFT Set 16 so far and it's... a lot. Definitely seems like a set with a high skill cap which means I could easily be still learning new things hundreds of games in. Which is great for creating guides, so pretty stoked!

Oof second #silksong steel soul run ended after a bit of carelessness. Got pretty far with this one too. Probably run it back one more time and this time actually use Fractured Mask. Not sure why I thought it would be a good idea to not have it...

I finally achieved the Star Guardian Prismatic but my opponent ff'd before I could get one fight with it to see it 😭 Please, it's common courtesy to give your opponent at least one fight with their 3 * 4 cost / 5 cost or Prismatic trait, and then you can FF to save time.
