In the ever-evolving landscape of Team Fight Tactics (TFT), a contentious issue has surfaced around the role of wandering trainers. A recent anonymous post spoke of the consistent victories of such entities, especially in their Emerald tier games. Their disgruntlement drew further attention to the perceived inflexibility of choosing their own composition before a match and the occasional detrimental effects of the different trainer combinations. This sentiment seems most pronounced during their climb in the competitive ladder. The post ended with a call to arms, inviting other TFT enthusiasts to share their thoughts.
Summary
