  • If you are low on HP and playing for top 4 : You should donkey roll (roll to 0 every round) to have all your 2 star champions and if possible 3 star Kennen.

Positioning Tips

TFT: Compo Sentinelle (Keeper) with Kennen and Xayah on Teamfight Tactics

The positioning varies very little with this composition since you want your sentinels stand next to each other to give each other the shield. Because of this, you are often vulnerable to AOEs (neeko, Aurelion Sol, Sejuani...).

Kennan should always be frontline, while xayah can also be but is more often in the second line.

Against certain compositions (Kayle, Sivir, Aurelion Sol...), you should try to position yourself directly in front of their carry by putting yourself on the right or on the left. In this situation, xayah is interesting in the front line to kill the opposing carries in the corners.

TFT: Compo Sentinelle (Keeper) with Kennen and Xayah on Teamfight Tactics
Reproduce this positioning identically on the left against an opponent positioned on the left.

If you're up against a champion like Aurelion Sol or against Assassins, Azir soldiers can go to the lower corners: they thus serve as bait for the spell of Aurelion Sol, and waste time for champions who jump into the backline.

Try to have your Sejuani and your Aatrox side by side, for Aatrox to lure the champions into Sejuani's stun. Remember to shift Aatrox to the side where he is opposed to the opposing carry if the latter has no Mercury, so that he brings it to the clinch.
