Itemization has a big effect on who wins each Teamfight Tactics match. Knowing is half the battle, so we previously wrote up our TFT Items Guide which explains all of the different item combinations. The other 50% of doing well is putting the right items on your best champions. In each TFT match, you’ll usually have one build-around champion that exists at the intersection of your team’s class and origin. For example, Ashe in a Glacial Rangers comp or Ahri in a Wild Sorcerers comp. This Teamfight Tactics guide will help you quickly find the best items for each champion, no matter who that might be!

Best TFT Items
- Guardian Angel: Put this on your tanky champions or carries to make your opponents have to kill them twice.
- Guinsoo’s Rageblade: Attack speed is all the rage for champions that auto attack.
- Statikk Shiv: Shiv continues to be a good source of damage, particularly in the early game.
- Dragon’s Claw: Magic resistance continues to be at a premium.
- Jeweled Gauntlet: Getting the dodge is already good, but the expanding Attack Speed slow is so good.
- Thief’s Glove: This is a value item, pure and simple. Early in the game it’s huge and it offers two items for the price of one, though they are randomized.
- Phantom Dancer: Dodging all critical strikes can mean the difference between victory and defeat.
- Warmog’s Armor: Health regen is great for tankier champions that will take a bunch of hits.
- Seraph’s Embrace: For magic users and those with powerful skills, regain Mana after a spell cast is vital to damage dealing.
Can you stack items?
Most items are stackable in Teamfight Tactics. However, there are two notable exceptions: The Phantom Dancer and Redemption. Whether you want to stack multiple of the same item or use different items to round out your champions is up to you.
