The rise of the Sage system in TFT
In the recent version 14.9, Riot Games made some notable changes targeting the level system and champion distribution rate in TFT. In short, gamers will spend more gold to reach level 9 and rolling 4-gold 3-star generals will be much more difficult because Riot reduces the rate. As a result, strong squads at level 8 and not too dependent on level 9 or 5-cost champions are becoming very popular.
The fact that gamers have to spend more gold to reach levels 9 and 10 makes strong squads even at level 8 more popular.
And a typical example of that is the playstyle of using Sage when the 3 champions (Zyra, Diana, Morgana) are extremely easy to activate. In addition, this system has provided 30% total lifesteal for front-line champions or 45 AP for back-line champions with the above milestone. With such a strong amount of stats, as long as the player uses his main force properly, he can cause extremely strong damage and fighting towers.
In addition, Sage generals also provide many strong effects such as deep wounds (Zyra), attack speed reduction (Morgana) or good recovery and resistance (Diana).
Furthermore, the flexibility in the process of building the Sage squad also helps gamers keep their health. Players can start with the Historian system to maintain early match health, then depending on the match situation, choose key players such as Sylas, Lee Sin, Kayn… Thanks to this advantage of building a flexible squad, players can will almost never be caught or fall into a battle for main force. At that time, players will have outstanding health and aim for high positions at the end of the match.
Powerful variations of the versatile Sage playstyle
The first and most annoying variation is to use the main Sylas in combination with the Sage generals. Basically, gamers often tend to pair recovery equipment and increase resistance stats such as Blood Sword and Giant Power for Sylas. Therefore, players should place Sylas in the bottom 2 rows to get more AP and help this unit deal better damage.

Another variation that is more difficult to play but proves to be extremely strong in the late game is using Lee Sin as the main force. The framework with the milestone of 3 Historians and Sage generals remains the same, but players will aim to use Lee Sin and Qiyana in the mid-game. The high total lifesteal stat from the Sage will help Lee Sin stay in combat extremely well. Furthermore, when reaching level 9 and adding 5-cost units like Wukong and Rakan, this squad proves to be extremely difficult to defeat.

In addition, Kayn is also a main force that interacts very well with the Sage system stats provided. However, this unit still has a fairly low base health index, so players should pair Kayn with at least one Blood Sword to withstand better. Combined with the U Linh clan's ability to significantly increase damage output, Kayn can easily “kill” tank champions as well as the opponent's main force.
The Kayn – Sage formation also proved extremely uncomfortable as it helped the main force snowball very strongly in combat.
Conclude
With the advantage of providing many strong and diverse indicators in how to build a team and choose the main force, the flexible Sage playstyle is proving extremely effective to help gamers climb the rankings. Just by making good use of the variations of the Sage squad, gamers can quickly achieve the desired ranking milestones in the current version.
