This video covers 7 advanced positioning tips and tricks to win in TFT. This includes how to split the enemy frontline, bait AoE attacks, position melee carries, maximize the value of Gargoyle Stoneplate, utilize Spectral Cutlass, utilize Unstoppable Poppy, and optimize Mentor Mech.
1. ⚔️ Splitting Enemy Lines and Kalista Positioning Strategies
- ✅ Splitting the enemy frontline makes it easier for units like Katarina or Caitlyn to reach the enemy carry.
- ✅ This positioning might not be optimal in the current set due to Golems.
- ✅ When Kalista isn't the main carry, placing her in the center might be more effective.

| Unit | Positioning | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Katarina, Caitlyn | Frontline Split (Corner) | Quickly reach the enemy carry |
| Kalista (Not Main Carry) | Center | Maximize damage efficiency |
| Kalista (Main Carry) | Corner | Ensure safety |
