TFT Set 7 Tier List – Patch 12.15 Meta Snapshot

Updated every Friday https://bunnymuffins.lol/meta/
Video Guides at https://youtube.com/bunnymuffins/

Meta Snapshot Summary

8/25 – Taking a break until Set 7.5!

Updated 8/12 – New patch introduced changes to Corki and a lot of the dragons

Tiers are pretty close together this patch. Late game power is mainly in the 10 cost Dragons. 4/8 costs are decent

NOTE: Augments greatly change the comp you run. For example if you get lots of emblems, you don’t need to run certain units or you chase an 8 or 9 synergy. Adaptation to your augments/items/units is key in Set 7

TFT Set 7 Tier List - Patch 12.15 Meta Snapshot

Last Week’s Rank: S

Difficulty: Medium
Item/Augment Dependency: Medium
Variance: Medium

Requirements:

Item Holder: Anyone

How to Play: Gameplay

Standard Leveling. Don’t go 9. Roll at 8 for Nunu 3 and Yasuo and Bard

Items for Nunu: Warmogs, Redemption, Any other tank item

Items for Daeja: Archangel’s Staff, Rageblade, Quicksilver, Giantslayer, Hand of Justice, Hextech Gunblade, Bloodthirster, Titan’s Resolve, Statikk Shiv, Revel Spatula (go Revels)

TIP: The Mirage variant doesn’t drastically change the build. BUT here are some small adjustments in case you need it!

Dawnbringer’s Determination: Heal at 50% HealtOnce per combat, rapidly heal at 50% Health: Nunu is insane with this. Warmogs super important. 3* Nunu very good! Can play Leona over Yone. On Daeja, prioritize damage, maybe you don’t need Gunblade/HoJ and do 3 damage items

Duelist’s Dexterity: Attacks grant Attack Speed: Daeja is the main carry, and get some damage such as Giantslayer, Statikk Shiv, JG/IE, Quicksilver. Rageblade still good, but slam other items too!

Executioner’s Edge: Always critically strike low Heath targets with Attacks and Abilities. Gain bonus Critial Strike Damage.: Focus on damage items to make the most of this

Warlord’s Honor: After winning any combat, gain bonus Health and Ability Power: Remember to give your units a stack on neutral rounds!

Electric Overload: When attacking or being hit by an attack, gain a chance to deal 8% of their maximum Health as magic damage to adjacent enemies: Great for your tanks. Great for Rageblade. Some tanks like Leona and Nunu can carry

Spellsword’s Enchantment: Each player combat, gain Ability Power per attack: Rageblade/Quicksilver great combo here as per usual

Pirate’s Greed: Gain a chest of loot after each player combat: Only use this for econ unless you are trying to make YouTube videos

FAQ

  • How are compositions ranked?
    • There are many factors, but the two strongest ones are how often they can be played and how strong they are when you get it. Think of it like frequency of being played combined with how well it can potentially do.
    • I also rank them based on how often the best players in the world play each comp (top 10 players in major regions)
  • Why isn’t XYZ Comp here?
    • Probably not played enough, not strong enough, or maybe it hasn’t been discovered yet and will hopefully be added next week.
    • It’s also impossible to fit every single variation of every composition on a tier list, so expect variations of these comps to do well too.
    • I also add in different versions of different comps in the notes, so be sure to read through them! (For example, one synergy might have two different playstyles such as reroll or standard)
  • [Legendary Unit] carry is the best in the game, where is it?
    • It is not reliable to have a 5 cost carry as a composition because you will not be able to get a 2* Legendary consistently. There may be metas where there are ‘Fast 9’ comps, but these often use any legendary they can get instead of a specific one.
  • What does Difficulty, Item Dependency, and Variance mean?
    • Difficulty is how hard the composition is to play.  Difficulty does not factor into the strength or viability of the composition but serves as a factor for new players. 
    • Item dependency is how important specific items are to the composition. 
    • Variance is the approximate placement range of the composition.  For example, a consistent Top 4 composition has Low variance.  A composition that either places 1st or 8th has a High variance.
  • Does what composition I play matter?
    • No. Playing TFT well matters a lot more
  • I can’t get these exact items every game
    • You don’t need perfect items or exact items unless specified in the Requirements section. Most of the time you just need ‘playable’ items and not ‘best in slot’ (BIS)
  • You are wrong, XYZ comp should be in S tier and ABC player said this S tier comp sucks
    • Everyone has different opinions. I try to take a data based approach by analyzing games from the best players in each region to combine all their opinions.
    • At the end of the day, comp doesn’t matter much compared to just playing TFT well (rolling, managing econ, positioning, etc). If you check out the best players, you will see that each player favors different compositions yet they are all very highly ranked.
  • When is this site updated?
    • Every Friday
  • Where can I learn more?
    • There are many resources and players to learn from. I suggest starting at my YouTube channel and this website.

Knowing how to get better at TFT is much more important than knowing what compositions to play. Knowing how to play Teamfight Tactics will help you no matter what patch it is.

Tier placement assumes strong play.  Refer to Difficulty metric before attempting to play.
