How to play well with Emblem & Spatula

Hello, my name is Tomasz, today i've been playing TFT since the very beginning for set 2 at the highest level on the EUW server I will try to describe to you how to play the game around Spatula and Emblemat, playing as Flex as possible.

As for my rank, it's at peak in set 10, I had 740 lp

Remember that this is my subjective opinion and description so if you have something of your own or you don't agree with something, remember it!

When it comes to sptul, we have a portal that gives us it at the beginning. You can also get it from the circle, here you have % how it works, description by LeDuck:

https://www.tacter.com/tft/guides/tft-carousel-odds-how-high-is-the-chance-for-a-spatula-def127cf

we can also get it from drops (Golden question mark)

As for the emblem, however, it is a bit more difficult and we usually do not use it in set 11 to strengthen a given character, but to boost a given composition, I hope you understand, an example is, of course, Storyweaver, to get Kayle faster, I will give more examples below, of course

To get them, we have augments that offer them to us or there is also a book that we sell

It can be said that if we have a good spot in Fated Syndra or Aphelios, we always want to make this spatula because it strengthens us, we do not need level 8 Sett to activate this feature as much as possible and thanks to this we have a strong tank in the form of Ornn instead of adding a unit like Ahri

Instead of Ornn, you can give units such as Nautilus or is there a play style with level 9? To activate the 4x Arcanist feature, we give Fated Spatula to Lissandra and add Illaoi, which also gives us Warden and Arcanist

Usually we never want to take Mythic because no matter what we play or Bard/Lillia/Hwei, maxing this feature is currently as strong as it may seem, and adding 5x is super easy and some Flex, but if we do, the situation is very similar to Fated will be added to the 7x Mythic spot a little faster

Here the situation is completely different, while playing this Set I learned one thing not to play Gnar when we don't have access to 6x Dryad because the jump is too big to skip it, so if we have 1 spot of Spatula Dryad Augment or Portal with Spatula, we can think about it, especially since we are playing Kindred as a second carry here, which is a D-TIER unit, unfortunately something may change in the next patch, scouting is very important, if only someone will go, what we do is power spike to level 6 on 4x Dryad but as soon as possible we escape from them

It's worth mentioning right away how exactly Heavenly works because I noticed that many people don't know about it, it gives unique bonuses to your entire team and now I gave you the simplest example above, i.e. playing Kha'Zix which we roll at level 4, add 4x Reaper to it and enter 9, to make Kayn and Wukong, we max this feature, but returning to the topic from a moment ago, if you make this spatula and add at least 4x Heavenly, your team will use this bonus very well, the simplest example of this will be Yone, which has been played for some time now with this feature without playing Alune

REMEMBER THE MOST IMPORTANT NOT TO SPEND ON YOUR CARRY, ONLY ON A UNIT THAT "DOESN'T MATTER" THE EMBLEM ITSELF DOES NOT GIVE ANYTHING

And here I want to write right away that this is a feature that is never played after 4x and 6x is even strong, but the problem is that Ashe is a D-TIER, but in 3 days there will be a patch in which she gets a very strong Buff, so we'll see how it goes but honestly, 2x is enough for me, so I would never play this Spatula

As you well know, Ghostly as a 6x trait is simply too strong, we don't know what it will be like in the next patch, but we always want to make it because at level 7 we can activate it, you can play Senna and Shen, the most popular versions, or go to level 8/9 and flex there Kai'Sa/Xayah and Irelia

The most popular Spatula that currently exists in TFT, I often see that if there is a start, that's the only one you want to get into, "I'm not surprised" because Max Kayle is really cool, the only thing she lacks is a strong carry unit other than Irelia, because if we don't hit her at 9, maybe be very difficult, but it gives us a strong Early Game, so even if we want to flex on 9 into something other than Kayle at max (which is better), such a Spatula can give a really big Valium

The same situation as before, i.e. Umbral at 6x is too weak to potentially take it and make it a priority

Okay, let's start with the more difficult thing, Emblem. As I mentioned above, it is usually used to strengthen the composition and not to "create a new one". An example of bad playing of an Emblem is, for example, Teemo under Arcanist, there are also Emlem, which are practically never used, but I will take all of them into account.

So here we go!

There are four Emlemats that we want or can take because we will always use them in practically every composition!

Altruist Emblem

We always want to take it why? because 90% of the compositions consist in adding two and even more legends, and the jump from 3 to 4 is huge, it is not as broken as before, but if you have it free, you will never lose

Dragonlord Emblem

As above, it is very often the case that if we do not have a game plan, we can play Legends and add all the Dragonlords and this feature alone under Irelia gives a lot, even too much

Fortune Emblem

Here, it seems to me that there is nothing to explain, if you like and, above all, you know how to play in a losing style, then thanks to Emlem you can quickly make 5x Fortune and in the later phase 7x, the faster the bigger the drop, so if you like a slight risk, I recommend it.

Exalted Emblem

It all depends on which champions in a given game are Exalted, if it suits us with the items and the characters themselves and everything connects very nicely, activating 5x is great, especially since it gets a buff in patch 14.7, remember that stacked Damage stays with you until the end, even if If you remove this feature, it is important because few people know about it

Duelist Emblem

The only one that we can use in the form of Carry!

Xayah

If you have a good spot in Duelist, which is not that easy, the jump between 6 and 8 is spacious and practical. Free Wine, it doesn't matter who you give it to, but as already written, Xayah in Duelist is super cool and strong as a Legend, so you can go for it think about it (if the matrix of items), but I still believe because of the 4x Dragonlord as Rakan is much different and the dish is different than many

Situational Emblems!

Bruiser Emblem

Bruisers are very strong on 4, I use them almost often, but is it worth playing 6? I'm not sure, then you play two carries, i.e. Sylas and something on the backline like Kai'Sa or Ashe or something under Ap as Morgana, there is of course Kobuko's tactic and then actually this 8x Bruiser works great but in this patch it is usless but in the next one aptch gets a buff for this character, so you can consider it (remember that you need an augment for him)

Behemoth Emblem

Behemoth is a hard trade because it is often the case that the tank items are enough, so we never take it with emgle unless we have Yorick or Shen under Augment Hero then it gives you a power spike at level 7/8

Sage Emblem

Sage is a rather forgotten feature due to the fact that Morgana solo is too weak, but if you have to reach level 9 to quickly make Wukong two stars, add Riven Galio and Zyra to it, then you max the feature and give Flex such as Statik free on Kayle and in addition In fact, you can give everything, I recommend 4x Bruiser under Sylas second carry very well, he uses the maximum features of Sage, i.e. omnivamp

Invoker Emblem

Lillia is a very nice character, you usually play 4x Invoker on her, but if you take the emblem, you will never lose it, you can give it to no matter who, or again I recommend Sylas

Emblems that we never want to take!

Sniper Emblem

Reaper Emblem

Arcanist Emblem

Here I will list what reinforcements to take for Kayle to do it well and I will tell you more or less what types of characters Inshadow items work very well on!

We always choose the first Kayle, practically the Green one, because she is more flexible. When it comes to other choices, it depends on what our game plan is. Zyra or Zoe is of course cool, after the Blue one, the red one is great against characters such as Kai'Sa and Ashe.

As for the second choice, we never choose blue because it is too weak, I repeat it often, but it gets buffs in the next patch, so something may change, so the standard choice is orange

The last one, and here, apart from blue, we can choose either orange or green. From my experience, green is much stronger here.
