Really glad they’re reviving the set I was a lot younger and this was during covid so I didn’t really understand how it worked back then, glad i get to actually give it a try now
The one thing I liked about the previous sets was they added units who utilized both AP and AD for different purposes. Like the Aatrox here. You can build a tank Aatrok with AP def or but dmg Aatrox or maybe go crazy with stacking AD+AP and have fun with it. Another was Khallista. Her stack dmg was based on AP while her auto dmg was based on AD. So had the option to make something like stacking AP khalista or play simple AD khalista. Now its either this or that. Nothing in-between which can be fun to build.
I remember why I did not like this set: - Viego is a bs champ. - Half lobby tunnel for Kayle - Vayne & Yasuo deal true damage with Runaan - Revenant has built-in GA, stacking more Volibear/Ivern can tank longer than playing any tank traits. - Assassins - Thresh - Frozen Heart on units that can access enemy backline - (i will remember more later) Runaan and Frozen Heart are gone, but others still remain
at least they did this rather than set 5. set 5 was complete ass imo set 5.5 is probably one of, if not the best mid set, considering how much they improved the original main set
When TFT was still fun, i miss those older sets like 3-6. Also, you had so many options for different carries and creative builds, man I miss those. And positioning was a lot more important! I remember draven or velcoz were often played in the 2nd/3rd row on the side. you had to put a unit near your carry to block things like aatrox, but then you had to reposition against assassins. And you needed to scout for zephyrs! Good old days
Oh god I didn't get to play this set when it came out but that Viego looks like absolute fun to play and an absolute nightmare to play against 💀💀💀 That last round with swapping the veil on him was great too
5.5 Is up there for me as being one of the best sets they've made. To this day I feel like it's still the set where RNG mattered the least. Had Set 5 gotten to have Augments as its mechanic like it was supposed to it probably wouldn't even be an unpopular opinion, the unit and trait design was great.
Wasn't frozen heart Diana the dragon set? Because it was assassin Diana and assassin emblem Olaf and Diana was full support while Olaf touched the other team in places they didn't want to be touched. Although it's definitely possible it was Diana w heart this set too lol
diana has almost always been assassin trait, which are the only units that used FH-others it was useless and assassins it was broken why they removed it.
Idk man, I personally love Magic & Mayhem, the balance issues will be present every set, as it's nearly impossible to keep everything perfect, the meta shifts drastically every patch and I love it plus AESTHETIC is just top notch. In short the current set is fresh and chick IMO.
Let's all pray that they make the "health bar skin" rewards permanent. It was such a grind to get them, they look awesome, but such a waste that it only lasts for the period of the event. sadge.
I've played 5 matches and all 5 have had atleast 1 player get 5 abom and theyve all top 2'd. Really feel like abom prismatic needs to be upped too 6 with the presence or augments and frying pans.
Huh? Galaxies is one of the most loved sets. Me mech me no pivot being one of the biggest memes in TFT history. 5.5 is alright but it's cool to have a better version of a bad set.
i was struggling to remember this set, then you mentioned frozen heart diana and it clicked, holy hell
Immediately i heard Leona say, "rouse thyself for combat" i got peak nostalgia and almost cried lol.
Buried deep down PTSD ain't ya 😂
Also the set with 2 cost Trundle 1v3/4’ing 3 stars
Really glad they’re reviving the set

Dude trust me you dont know the half of it of what happened with this set
fiddlesticks ivern voli + teemo heimer is one of my favorite late game caps ever made, all the units are just so cool
if i remember correctly rageblade started to fade out for yas reroll and it became runaans, hoj, jg/qss/archangel/rabadons/another hoj
RFC Archangel Runaans
runaans doesnt work now right

Can you only play this on pbe? Does it come out on normal soon?

It was draconic trait, but not the dragon set
The rfc jax with blue buff gwen with iron clad and mystic still give me ptsd :)
Remember cavaliers blue buff brand 2 costs reroll. Forced it till diamond back then
Pyke carry augment is so op.
are these .X set's something that they did in the past?
they did do .5 sets and change some units for new ones and sometimes new traits ( i think)
ooooh i see, thank you ^-^@@leochristou5798
Yeah the last one was 9.5
Lol, he said "that is just peak toxic gamplay" and the suggested video that popped up was the one discussing toxicity and setsuko... made my chuckle.
This set was a lot of fun….. but The grind to diamond this set was pretty rough ngl
I'm so confident they re-released this set in particular as a strawman to divert criticism from the current set.

sadge.
this set had some of the coolest 5 costs
So funny to look back and realize how fucked up things are
I've played 5 matches and all 5 have had atleast 1 player get 5 abom and theyve all top 2'd. Really feel like abom prismatic needs to be upped too 6 with the presence or augments and frying pans.
This is the set with my favorite Origin; Draconic.
I believe there was an rfc for jax back then
I remember this set forcing 5 draconic then if i get an egg immediately sell the whole board.
I’m sad they didn’t add the knight breakpoint to 8
nice Viego. I never play this set again.
bro i saw this on my front youtube and thought the algorithm is fucked up recommending me like 4 year old content
Suspicious Trench Coat Abomination Incoming!
Fisbones abom cz funny
Viego and velkoz are hella broken
I want a set 3 Revival
All 5 cost is over powered
Also Viego...
Yes going fast 8-10 was way stronger than it is now
ok lol assassin counter kayle ggwp
Summon Slifer, the Sky Dragon if T1 wins worlds
aint no one want this set back i still have nightmares of dawnbringer karma
Best set ever
CC the set
Jones Gary Johnson Michelle Thompson Helen
I hated this set so badly that I gave up playing after a week. Totally sucked
man i love the idea behind set revival, but how did they manage t bring back my 2 most unliked sets of all time back
5.5 was the first set I hit Diamond in so it holds a special place in my heart.
@@Kougaku man i feel that, so was dragons for me, and i hit first time masters aswell
Huh? Galaxies is one of the most loved sets. Me mech me no pivot being one of the biggest memes in TFT history. 5.5 is alright but it's cool to have a better version of a bad set.
They’re saving the fan favorites like 6 and 1 for special occasions
@@Bearakuma dw i dont blame them. what i think is best doesnt mean everyone else agrees, its just sad for me in particular
