TFT Set 10 will be the first season where Riot starts to eliminate mid-season phases, and there will only be a single continuous season. Therefore, many players have been looking forward to Riot actually bringing an exciting TFT season that contributes to increasing the appeal of this game mode. And indeed, as of now, this aspect has been maintained quite well, and there seems to be no champions that can appear overwhelmingly strong as before.
However, there are still some “delicious and cheap” compositions for players to use to rank up effectively, especially at lower ranks. Specifically, the composition revolving around Senna is proving to be quite strong at the moment. This is also an easy composition to build, where players can have strong carries from the early levels and establish a consistent gameplay style.
Overview and Operation
The first strength of the Senna composition is that Senna comes with 2 very popular Traits, which are True Damage and Marksman. The advantage of these two Traits is that they can be combined with current “hot meta” champions like Yone, Aphelios, or higher tier ones like Akali and Lucian. Moreover, as long as one of the two Traits activates Star Guardian, players can easily use the lowest threshold at the beginning (2 True Damage or 2 Marksman) to clear stages easily.
However, like all compositions revolving around other low-cost champions, the requirement for items is extremely precise. Therefore, players need to equip Senna with suitable items and consider the situation of the match. Additionally, it is necessary to upgrade Senna to 3 stars early to gain an advantage in the late game.
Building the Composition
In the early levels, players can completely obtain Senna with Star Guardian effect early as this champion only costs 2 gold. Furthermore, they can combine K’Sante – Yasuo/Jinx and any champion with the Protector trait at level 4 to have a solid early game composition to clear stages.
By building a composition around Senna, gold should not be used to level up but rather to roll for champions. The earlier Senna is upgraded to 3 stars, the more time players have to build the necessary composition and make reasonable choices to play around Senna. At levels 5 and 6, the initial Protectors can be replaced by Ekko. If Aphelios is available, it should be included to activate 4 Marksman (if the Star Guardian effect is Marksman). In the case of True Damage, a Protector can be added to activate 4 Protectors, increasing shields for the entire team.
In the late game, the composition needs to be completed with a core of 4 True Damage – 4 Marksman – 4 Protectors. One clear advantage is that Senna shares a Trait with many champions that have 3 or more Traits, making it easy to build the composition. A perfect composition at level 8 includes:
With Senna as a Star Guardian Marksman: K’Sante – Mordekaiser – Ekko – Blitzcrank – Senna – Lucian – Aphelios – Yone. At level 9, Akali can be added to activate 4 True Damage.
With Senna as a Star Guardian True Damage: K’Sante – Mordekaiser – Blitzcrank – Ekko – Senna – Lucian – Akali – Karthus.
Tech Core
With this composition, any Tech Cores providing power to the True Damage or Marksman Traits will be effective. Additionally, any cores providing True Damage or Marksman emblems will also help players build the composition more easily. However, players should also keep an eye on the situation and have backup plans in case too many players want to “spam” the composition.
