Why Unit Size Matters

Рет қаралды 72,853

Ай бұрын

What if I told you that size always matters? Well, at least in TFT! I always wondered if the unit size affects combat in any way. We already had plenty of examples in the past that confirmed that theory, like Draconic Sett in set 5, but what if there was more to it? So, in Inkborn Fables, I decided to tackle this once and for all. At first, I wanted to see if the unit targeting at the start of combat is random, and what I found might surprise you! So sit back and enjoy the show as Detective Quack discovers the hidden rules of Teamfight Tactics!

Funnily enough, with the small but deadly augment, Caitlyn ult can just go straight through the champions really easily and one shot the carry. Encountered this twice

It’s not about the size of the duck, it’s about the motion in LeDuck’s ocean.

This might be a big part of why Ornn is such a reliable tank. If he's always targeted first, then it's just a further increase to his ability as a tank.

@Alan-TFT Ай бұрын

It's good to see you talk about frontline ranged units attacking backline units. I find that Hero Shen is the best choice for this because you can build him tank and he goes straight for the carries. And a lot of players don't even notice the bug happening, but they naturally play enough units to prevent the bug.

@hoangnguyen0721 Ай бұрын

One noticeable thing about unit size is spells using the unit itself as the hitbox Most common example is Yone's spell,whatever he touches with the dash also takes damage and with 2 Titans,Yone size is more than 1 hex and thus even if a unit is cornered,when he launch himself at his target that while blocked still receive a massive ammount of damage Udyr might also have a larger knock up with his Ram Slam but he rarely ever gets 25 titans stack b4 casting that and usually swapped to Tiger Strike once he's 25 stacks and him being a 5 cost means i cant really confirmed this Sizes also sometimes let units attack 1 range further than ther range but this only applies for 1-2 autos depends on AS

@chrischeng5123 Ай бұрын

Is this why my 8-bit Riven would never focus the backline despite dashing right in front of their face? Riven would always just ignore the backline and walk towards the tanks anyways

@cyberrb25 Ай бұрын

5:15 honestly, if you get to line up Caitlin-type units in a straight line, I think the "2-star and up units block the projectile" is a bit lame. It's a win of positioning, and it should be that way regardless of star level of the "bodyguards".

im pretty sure theres an issue with D7 lux aiming at small targets on some enemy D tiles (namely D2). i dont have the means to test but im pretty sure this ability was just not designed for tft, it is wayyy too skinny for an aoe

@carronline1 Ай бұрын

what about the small but deadly augment since it reduces the size of units, pretty sure it only nerfs you by picking it even with the extra attack speed

i didnt even know u could go through the holes between the carousel wtf

@reverie5825 Ай бұрын

For start-of-fight targeting, I'm pretty sure you're overthinking it. It's more likely that the standard combat ai (when many units are in range, pick the closest) is just choosing larger units as "closer" when measuring from the edge of one hitbox to another. Similar issue shows up with LDP when "farthest" can change based on unit size. That bug with ranged units in top-right hexes is weird.

@rinrin193 Ай бұрын

Riot should hire you at this point. Maybe try applying.

I mostly play on my tablet so making me larger or faster makes it harder for me to get what I want on the carousel.

Hot take: we can have unit size BUT it should not change the hit-box. The game should work on hexes as a hit-box and not champs. I am surprised that it doesn't

Another reason why this set sucks; removing RNG from a game heavily based on RNG. The whole targeting interaction is terrible like this. It's already bad this set doesn't reward low probability RNG more than higher probability RNG like in previous sets, but to remove RNG in what was traditionally RNG based is just a slap in the face to the concept of the game. The next step might be giving players control of the units so they can choose who/what to attack.
