About This Quiz
Strategy war games are definitely a thinking person’s game, but they can be boring and time-consuming. Riot Games, the developers behind "League of Legends," have come up with a brilliant idea: Why not create a game that utilizes their champions from "League" into a completely new game? Enter "Teamfight Tactics." Similar to "Risk," you need to consider the placement of your champions and dominate the board, knocking opponent after opponent out until you’re the last person standing. However, by adding animation and making a tighter time constraint, they’ve created a new spin on an old game genre.
Don’t think TFT is for you? Sure, there are some difficulties in getting into a new game, but once you find your champion, you’ll be hooked. And in case you think there’s only one genre available, check this out! Are you a horror fan who loves the spooky and deep? Check out the demons and void creatures; they can intimidate as well as cast some nasty spells. How about a trip to the seven seas? Pirates are aplenty in "Teamfight Tactics!" There’s even a powerhouse of a robot available … if you can catch him! Couple the variety with an easy upgrade system, and you’re set to play. Still not sold? Did we forget to mention that you can play an ADORABLE Little Legend while you’re battling?
But while you’re fighting, knowing what buff goes best with a champion is key. Do you think your cheat sheet is up to date? If so, take a break, look these buffs over and see if you can guess what these items from "Teamfight Tactics" are.
If you're looking for a cream-of-the-crop tank, check out Pantheon. This champion with draconic origins not only buffs dragons by giving them extra resistance but also offers guardians extra armor as well.

Why a spatula? Just like its carbon-based counterpart, the Spatula in TFT can flip the script on anyone's game. Some of its awesome combinations include Mittens (which turns a unit into a Yordle) and Force of Nature, which allows a player to place an extra unit on the field.

The cool thing about the Negatron Cloak is that you can use it on pretty much everyone because, when it comes to defenses or resistances, you always can use a little bump. And that small bump can mean victory or defeat.

While we can't predict what our casters are going to do from round to round, one thing we can do is help them out by giving them as much of an edge as possible when it comes mana supply. Equipping a caster with a Tear of the Goddess will give them 20 extra mana to play with.

Alone, a Needlessly Large Rod will add 20 points of spell damage, but it's when it is combined with other items that it shines; when a Recurve Bow is added, you can end up with Guinsoo's Rageblade, one of the best combos in the game.
