Remember when Team Fight Tactics (TFT) was only a ‘computer thing’? Well, those days are long gone! A post by ‘Vanuchi’, a returning player from the heydays of Set 4 and a current mobile gamer, brought this intriguing question to the table: ‘How far can a mobile player reach in Ranked?’
Summary
- Mobile play in TFT comes with its own set of minor obstacles, mainly prohibiting extensive scouting and quick maneuvers.
- However, these limitations have been deemed insignificant, and mobile-only Master and even Challenger-level players exist, defying the odds.
- While some players prefer the comfort of a computer screen, others thrive on the handy, portable allure of mobile platforms.
The Grind to the Top
Ranked play, especially as a mobile player, can feel like an uphill battle. ‘Prestigious-Fix-4’ and ‘Special_Ad_9645’ kick off the discussion with an optimistic viewpoint. The former mentions that some top competitions are attended by mobile players. The latter agrees, acknowledging the teething issues, but maintains that it gets better with practice.
Mastering the Craft
Folks like ‘ScottishOverseas’, ‘Hour-Ad-4567’, and ‘AL3XEM’ shrug off the mobile worries. Scottish, for instance, reached Master without breaking much of a sweat on his phone. And Hour? Master, on phone. AL3XEM suggests a different approach entirely; the mobile limitations create a need for a streamlined strategy, a more linear angle.
The Trouble with Mobile
It isn’t entirely rose-colored glasses, though. ‘SomeKilljoy’ is adamant about his preference for the computer. He won’t play ranked unless he’s on his PC. But his opinion is vastly outnumbered by positive perspectives. ‘Dutch-Alpaca’ and ‘bluethree’ remind us that though there might be a slight learning curve, many high-rank players have thrived on mobile-only play, including a certain ‘Lab 018 biribiri’ who played in the prestigious KDA Cup.
Whether you’re taking part in a top-level competition or just climbing up the ladder for the first time, mobile play offers a unique experience in TFT. It’s a testament to the adaptability of gamers and an encouraging sign for future mobile gaming prospects. So, put on your game face, all you mobile gamers – let’s make Vanuchi proud!
