Her name is Jinx, but she is not a Jinx to you; on the other hand, she could be your lucky shot... or, should I say, lucky rocket, as she has returned to TFT, not as expensive as she once was, but she is certainly strong.

She is back with her prankster and Anima Squad, which can be a huge advantage to your team as the Anima Squad can increase your maximum hit points permanently for your whole squad, and the prankster would keep Jinx away from any close encounters as she would summon a dummy when her health falls to protect her.

This is a full article about how to best place Jinx in TFT to have that rocket start and win your game.

Duck! Hehe, just kidding, that won't help.

Jinx has always been a crazy girl looking for trouble, and when she landed on TFT with her rocket, she decided to have the ability of stunning enemies with just a rocket.

Jinx can be lethal if placed in the right spot and equipped with the right items, as she can deal massive damage and assist your team with crowd control by stunning enemies.

3) DUELIST MOVING

Synergies:

• 2 Ox Force
• 3 Duelist
• 2 Prankester
• 2 Aegis
• 3 Anima Squad
• 2 Recon
• 1 Ace

This composition is based on Vayne stacking a lot of Attack speed so she can sneak up on enemies and hit them with her true damage.

This is a fast reroll to level 8, with a strong economy. Try to get everyone on your board to level 3, especially Vayne and Nilah, as she will be your main frontline.

Best team to build this:

1-Vayne does most of the damage because she has the Anima Squad, Duelist, and Recon traits turned on, which make her a real beast with her damage.

2-Nilah is the main tank for the front line. You could stack up 3 lockets of the iron solari, and she would add to the Duelist and Star Guardian traits.

3-Alistar is a key member of your team's front line because he has Ox Force, Aegis, and Mascot.

4-Jinx is a new member of the Anima Squad and the Pranksters. With her cannon, she can stun enemies.

5-As a Recon and Star Guardian, Kai'Sa can do a lot of damage from the backlines.

6-Ekko is a strong frontliner who has the Aegis and Prankster traits, which make him a good tank and summoner.

7-Since Fiora has both the Ox-Force and Duelist traits, she can have a good effect on the frontline.

8-Miss Fortune can use any AP item and still do a lot of damage because she is part of the Anima Squad and uses the Ace trait.

2) ANIMA GANG

Synergies:

• 3 Prankester
• 5 Anima Squad
• 2 Mascot
• 2 Aegis
• 1 Ace

This competition is based on the Anima Squad as the main trait and the other traits like Aegis, Prankester, and Mascot as supporting traits.

This is a slow, fast reroll to level 8, since most of the champions are higher than 3 gold, but remember to get Jinx and Nasus to 3 stars.

Best team to build this:

1-Miss Fortune will do most of your damage as a member of the Anima Squad, which gives her more health, and as a member of the Ace, which makes her kill enemies.

2-As a member of Anima Squad and Prankester, Jinx does a lot of damage from the back lines.

3-Vayne would be a good choice for the back lines because she can help the Anima Squad and does real damage.

4-Zoe would use his trait "Prankster" to set enemies on fire.

5-Ekko would make it a set of three Pranksters, and because he shields himself, he would be a great frontliner who could take more damage.

6-Alistar is a must-have because he has both the Mascot and Aegis traits, which give your team high usage.

7-Riven is the fourth member of the Anima Squad. She would do a lot of damage and be a great frontliner, making her a great choice.

8- Because of Nasus, your Anima Squad would be set to 5 and your Mascots would be set to 2, which is a huge plus for your team.

1) FULL HEALING SYLAS

Synergies:

• 3 Prankester
• 5 Anima Squad
• 2 Mascot
• 2 Aegis
• 1 Ace

This team is built around the Anima Squad trait, which gives your team a lot of damage that adds up over time.

In the late game, when Miss Fortune had a lot of stacked damage, she would be a real beast when it came to dealing damage.

This comp is a reroll to level 8 by default if you have more than 50 gold to make sure that everyone who has less than 4 gold hits level 3.

The best team to build this:

1-With the Ace trait turned on and the Anima Squad trait shared, Miss Fortune can't be stopped from doing damage, no matter what AP equipment she uses.

2-Ekko is a strong frontliner who has the traits Aegis and Prankster, which make him a reliable tank and summoner.

3-Alistar is an important part of your front line. He has the same Ox Force, Aegis, and mascot as your team.

4-Nasus is another member of the Anima Squad who can take a lot of damage while being a mascot on the front line.

5-Jinx and her friend Ekko both have the prankster trait, which means they like to play jokes on other people.

6-Riven is one of the most powerful members of the Anima Squad. She has the Brawler trait, which makes her a big beast that can deal damage and stay alive on the front lines.

7-Zoe can set enemies on fire by giving the team the Prankster trait and using his third passive, which stuns enemies who kill training dummies.

8-Sylas would be a huge tank on the front lines because his skill heals, and it gets stronger as more ability power is added by the Anima Squad.
