Teamfight Tactics (TFT) – Unit Positioning Guide
Unit Positioning
League of Legends has always been a game of timing and positioning, with many fights often being decided on these factors. As you might expect, positioning is incredibly important in Teamfight Tactics and you’ll need to take a little care when it comes to placing your units on the board.
Those of you who are familiar with LoL’s classes will know just how important positioning is when trying to take down your opponent. For example, the Gunslinger class is made up of ranged AD Carries that deliver huge amounts of damage from afar, so they are best placed at the back of your team where they can safely poke down enemy units.
The majority of Teamfight Tactics champs are melee and only have a one grid attack range, so it’s often best to put them on the frontline where they can rush down foes and create a buffer for your squishy AD Carries. However, Gunslinger/Ranger champs like Tristana, Ashe, and Varus have an attack range of four (max range), allowing you to poke enemies from four grids away. Knowing your units’ attack ranges and carefully positioning them on the board will always beat those that opt for a more mindless strategy.
