This article is over 5 years old and may contain outdated information

In Teamfight Tactics‘ short lifespan, the metagame has shaped and formed on an almost weekly basis. Riot Games isn’t messing around when it comes to patches, and if you happen to lag behind or miss a hotfix or two, you may find yourself sinking down to the very bottom of the tables.

This article will be updated to reflect the metagame in future patches.
