OP Conditions
Patch Insights
- NewRecently UpdatedPlayers are starting to realize that 3-star 4-costs as a win condition are worth considering, especially with duplicator augments like New Recruit, Just Hit, and Max Buiild, due to 30% 4-cost odds on 8. Consider going for them.
- NewRecently UpdatedWhile Fast 9 with Vex or Graves are usually the highest cap boards, you'll generally need a strong tempo opener and econ augments to play these meaning you won't be able to angle them every game.
- NewRecently UpdatedWhile Anima was nerfed before launch, Timebreaker and Primordian weren't so you should prioritize these units highly in Stage 1 as the econ value they provide helps almost all comps.
- NewRecently UpdatedEmblems are quite strong in Set 17. Not all strong Emblems are on the website currently, but generally it is a good idea to click Emblem augments (especially if you are lose streaking and can get reforgers).

I like the new layout. Would it be possible to have a search / filter for various conditions, along with minimum condition tier as a filter? Would greatly help with reducing down the number of comps we might want to choose from. The conditions flowchart is nice, but I can’t evaluate ‘multiple’ conditions at once.
Ex: I want to filter for comps where Radiant Gargoyle AND Healing Orbs AND Econ opener are minimum S tier conditions. Result might highlight Mecha according to those since all 3 are good for Mecha, and not just 2/3.
If you want to do this, you’ll have to use the tier list. The only functionality you wanted that the tier list doesn’t do is minimum tier, but it presents the information concisely enough that you can easily see what comps are what tier with the search terms you made. This is meant to be a “dumb” overview page, not highly interactive. The tier list will remain the most interactive place on the website if you want to do anything more complicated.
For the “AND” search (which you can switch to by clicking “OR” between conditions above the search bar on the tier list), it doesn’t properly show the results in the Results box (forgot to code that, not sure when I’ll get around to it), but it still shows the “Combo” cards (all conditions searched with “AND”) on the tier list.
bre i dont know that i need this new features on the website but man its sick. great job big man <3
big man is back with the professional analysis!
I understand a few of you liked that the old format had first item slams, first unit to slam those items on, and openers. My comment mentioning this is filed under last patch, but to be clear, the intention is to have an entire page dedicated to early game for “Default” and “Meta” comps. However, it wasn’t finished by release of Set 17. I will work on it after Set 17 meta settles a little more. On the bright side, almost every comp has the same ideal opener: Primodian and Timebreaker unless you can win streak, occasional Anima if you are feeling spicy. That’s it. But for now, if you want more details for a specific comp, you need to go to the comp pages until the Early Game page is developed.
Will the old format for previous sets come back? It looked so much nicer…
This page lets you see a lot more potential comps now, but it totally leaves out what starter comps or conditions you’d want to look for (realistically) since a lot of the ones showing are augments or emblems
Where did the nice layout go that showed you what to do depending on your starting conditions? That was super helpful and actually felt like a flowchart.
Daaaang, what a banger of a website. Got even better, when it was the best to begin with… thanks so much for your work.
nice work mate
love your work
I love the changes, especially the “OP conditions” tab. Thanks for your hardword, it really is appreciated !
(The patch insight is huge too)
The website is now full of info, and I admit I’m overwhelmed a bit
Even though the home page is nice, I preferred the previous three-column layout for specific intro page, now there are about eight distinct things to look at there
Just when I thought the site couldnt get any better– Love the new look and features!
I liked how you could see the important openers on the home page, can this be brought back?
GM Blue has been cooking again, holy moly
This site refresh is really awesome, and the new features are great! Nice job as always GM Blue!
One suggestion would be that the comp page changelog could maybe be lower on the site – or a dropdown? What would you think?
Looking forward to keep using the site! It’s awesome!
Appreciate the kind words … It has a max height, I think it’s fine. It won’t ever take up more than a specified size on the page and it’s already almost at the very bottom. The only thing lower is Openers, which makes sense to me given you already are given a recommended opener at the very top and the Openers section is just to provide more detail or alternative openers. I think the comp change log will be valuable to anyone who cares about keeping up to date with the meta, and for anyone who doesn’t care the limit in size should be enough.
Thanks for the reply! I can see your vision with it. When I’m thinking about it – different people probably value different things from the site, and how it helps them with play.
Good luck with your games and life in general!

Set 17 releases soon for every region — TFT Flow will get many updates as usual during the first few days as the meta gets figured out. The A-Patch wasn’t very large, so right now suspicions are that the meta will be similar to the end of PBE with the exception of Xayah lines possibly entering the meta (will update the site for that once those Xayah lines are well understood). Thanks for your patience throughout this PBE as I know it was slower than usual due to the changes getting worked on for the website.
Hopefully the website changes are generally a net positive for most of you — Still got more on the horizon that I’m working on, but need to focus on Set 17 a bit before going back to development. Good luck on your climb!
