Patch 12.14 in TFT has shaken up the meta once again, forcing players to adapt to the new changes if they want to stay competitive. Here are the best compositions in the latest patch:

2 Revel, 2 Cannoneer
6 Ragewing, 4 Shapeshifter
6 Astral, 3 Mage
6 Mirage, 5 Cavalier
4 Evoker, 3 Astral

2 Revel, 2 Cannoneer

Key units: Corki, Sona, Tristana

Key items: Sparring Gloves, B.F. Sword, Recurve Bow, Needlessly Large Rod (aim to create Guinsoo's Rageblade, Giant Slayer, and Quicksilver)

Key augments: Cannoneer Heart, Cannoneer Crown

This composition focuses on building a strong economy early on and focusing on picking up the required items for your Corki later on. The combination of Revel and Cannoneer will make him very strong if you funnel the proper items onto him.

The plan early on should be on just picking up the item components listed above and funnel them onto a low-cost unit that you encounter in the carousel or shop before you are able to access Corki, which will be your primary carry. The main tactic used is 'Standard' for this composition, ensuring a healthy balance between levels and scouting for units to upgrade them to a higher tier.

6 Ragewing, 4 Shapeshifter

Key units: Shyvana, Xayah

Key items: Sparring Gloves, B.F. Sword, Recurve Bow, Needlessly Large Rod (aim to create Guinsoo's Rageblade, Giant Slayer, and Quicksilver)

Key augments: Stand United, Cybernetic Implants

This composition gives you access to a powerful backline carry in Xayah and a strong frontline in Shyvana. Your main goal should be funneling items onto both of them to make them unstoppable.

During the carousel, try to pick up the required item components for Guinsoo which is your must-have item in this composition to enable Xayah. Afterward, start building the other core items while rolling for Shyvana. The main tactic used is 'Standard' for this composition, ensuring a healthy balance between levels and scouting for units to upgrade them to a higher tier.

6 Astral, 3 Mage

Key units: Aurelion Sol, Illaoi

Key items: Spatula, Needlessly Large Rod, Tear of the Goddess, B.F. Sword (aim to create Mage Emblem, Hextech Gunblade, and Archangel's Staff)

Key augments: Mage Crown, The Golden Egg

This composition is easy to pilot due to the Astral trait which allows you to level up the units quickly and dominate the board or at least go even with other powerful compositions until you pick up Aurelion Sol.

Your main priority with this composition is picking up Astrals and then starting rolling to level them up quickly to 3-stars. You should also pick up the required item components to prepare for Aurelion Sol when you encounter him since he is your primary carry in this composition. The main tactic used is 'Slow roll' for this composition, with the aim of rolling all excess gold to get 3-star units by level 7.

6 Mirage, 5 Cavalier

Key units: Daeja, Nunu

Key items: Negatron Cloak, Needlessly Large Rod, Recurve Bow, Sparring Gloves, Tear of the Goddess(aim to create Guinsoo's Rageblade, Giant Slayer and Archangel's Staf)

Key augments: Mirage Crest, Mirage Crown

This composition works out great with Daeja as the primary carry in the backline. He will devastate your opponent's board with the proper items while the opposing units will be busy dealing with your strong frontline in Nunu.

Aim to pick up the required item components to build Guinsoo's Rageblade and Quicksilver to empower your Daeja once you pick him up. Until then, use the items on any carry you encounter in your shop or the carousel. The main tactic used is 'Standard' for this composition, ensuring a healthy balance between levels and scouting for units to upgrade them to a higher tier.

4 Evoker, 3 Astral

Key units: Aurelion Sol, Sona

Key items: Giant Belt, Needlessly Large Rod, Tear of the Goddess, B.F. Sword (aim to create Morellonomicon, Hextech Gunblade, and Archangel's Staff)

Key augments: Cybernetic Uplink, The Golden Egg

This composition focuses on building a strong economy early on and focusing on picking up the required items your carry later on which will be Ao Shin.

Aim to pick up the item components for your Aurelion Sol early on while picking up the low-cost units for your composition. He will carry the game once you get him so your main goal should be to get items to enhance him while also making sure not to drop too much health early on. The main tactic used is 'Fast 8' for this composition, with the aim to reach level 8 in early stage 4 to pick up the 4 and 5 cost units before your opponents and funnel your items onto them.
