Hey, I hope you're having a great day. I haven't been able to spend enough time on TFT lately, even though I really like the new set, because there have been some big developments in my daily life. I hope to share some positive news with you, but first, let me share a great TFT game with you.

You can watch the gameplay video here:
This game features Draven visiting us, and we're in a universe where we earn gold for every eliminated player. This set was added to the game, and it's a universe where the longer you survive, the more you're rewarded.
Currently, the Void meta dominates the game. Starting with Void champions is great because it's not a composition you can switch back to later. At least, it's not easy because you need the Void trait to be active for 8 rounds to get the Rift. You also need to reach level 10 to play this composition. I started the game with Void champions and chose the Going Long augment to reach level 10. Now I won't be able to earn gold, but I'll gain 5 XP per round. Let's see what it feels like to play with 0 gold!
Not caring about gold at all is a different feeling. I quickly reached level 6 because I was on a winning streak. I easily defeated very strong opponents. Finding Belveth by chance had a huge impact on my winning streak. Now, if I get through the mid-game on a winning streak, everything will be fine.
I chose Celessial Blessing as my second augment. This augment will grant me a small amount of omniwamp. I need this because both Baron Nashor and Belveth can stay alive longer by regenerating health.
Just as I wanted, I got through the entire mid-game with a winning streak. Can I get 100 health wins in this game? I don't think I'll lose after reaching level 10 because Baron is very powerful, but until then, I have to do everything I can to keep my winning streak going.
I chose Explosive Growth as my final augment. This augment will grant me 10 XP for 4 turns, for a total of 40 XP. I gain 1 XP per turn from the Ionia trait, I automatically gain 2 XP, and I gain 5 XP from my first chosen augment. So, I will gain 18 XP per turn for 4 turns. I will likely have enough gold to reach level 10 by the start of stage 5.
Unfortunately, I lost my winning streak during this process. The bad news is that someone else is playing the same composition as me. The good news is that he's about to get eliminated!
Just as I expected, I got Baron Nashor at the start of phase 5. I don't think I'll lose the fight now. By the way, for those who don't know why we reached level 10, it's a requirement to unlock Baron Nashor.
It's great that I'm matched with an opponent playing my composition right now. Maybe they could have beaten me if I didn't have Baron Nashor, but now they have no chance. Sorry, buddy, try your luck in the next game :)
I've even seen some games where the Bard composition came in first. I think I even shared one of those games with you, but this game wasn't one of them. I eliminated him early in this game. I think Baron Nashor's best items are the ones you see on the screen: Infinity Edge, Sterak's Gage, and Bloodthirster.
The stupid thing is, while I was trying to get Baron Nashor to 2 stars, my opponent got Miss Fortune to 3 stars. The thing I dislike most about this set is that in every game, someone gets something to 3 stars. You have to constantly keep track, or you have no chance of winning the game.
Unfortunately, my opponent beat me several times in a row and finished the game in first place. If they hadn't done that, I could have shared a very enjoyable first-place match with you. Be more alert when playing this composition and don't let your opponents get 3 stars. That way, you can finish first. GG!
