Kog'Maw lineup – Monitoring at TFT season 13
Although not nerfed in recent versions of TFT season 13, the Kog'Maw – Surveillance squad is no longer as popular as before. The reason comes from the fact that gamers gradually find ways to effectively counter this style of play when using champions that have the ability to get close or cause damage through the backline like Ambessa, Twitch… It doesn't stop there, Some annoying gameplay like Renata reroll with strong shield buff ability also makes Kog'Maw's ability to deal damage greatly limited.
Therefore, in the upcoming version 13.4, Riot Games has made notable edits to help this squad return to the meta. Specifically, the two important Surveillance units in the middle of the game, Vander and Scar, both have extremely strong buffs to their defense and recovery stats from skills in this version. That helps the front line of the Kog'Maw – Supervisor squad become much more difficult to defeat and creates maximum conditions for the main force to deal damage.
Prophecy – Black Rose lineup in TFT season 13
Similar to Kog'Maw – Supervisor, the Prophet – Black Rose squad was forgotten in version 13.3 when facing too many disadvantages. Accordingly, the main force Heimerdinger is extremely fiercely fought over, making it quite difficult to upgrade this unit to 2 stars, even when reaching level 9. Furthermore, with all types of formations dealing damage, strong in the previous version, Sion's resistance proved to be too weak and not of much value in real combat.
By version 13.4, the early game strength of this squad will be significantly improved when Morgana has increased skill damage at all levels. Furthermore, the healing effect for Prophet system allies will now be moved to the 6 champion mark (8 mark has been removed), which will help this squad become much more resilient. At that time, the main forces that need time to attack many times like Heimerdinger and Malzahar will shine brightly thanks to their huge damage. These are many more wonderful conditions for the Prophet – Black Rose squad to return strongly in patch 13.4 and regain a position in the leading group of the meta.
Guard – Academy squad in TFT season 13
One of the fatal weaknesses of the Guard – Academy squad is that its mid-game strength is relatively poor. Gamers who want to earn a winning streak at this stage must depend a lot on whether the Academy equipment at the 3-champion mark is strong or not. In matches where Academy equipment is too specific and difficult to use effectively, players can easily lose a lot of blood in the middle of the match.
Perhaps Riot itself also understands this problem, so in the upcoming patch 13.4, the mid-game strength of this squad will be significantly increased. Accordingly, Leona and Lloris will receive a very strong buff in the resistance index at the 3-star level. This helps the Academy team's reroll gameplay become much stronger as players will take advantage of the resistance of Leona, Lloris and the long-range damage from Ezreal. At that time, gamers will have a great advantage in health and can aim for high levels and expensive units to win the final victory.
