Frying Pans: TFT’s Emblem Component
The Frying Pan is a unique trait introduced in TFT that emphasizes defense and utility. It's designed to counter critical strikes while providing bonus effects depending on how it interacts with the team composition. Here's a comprehensive guide to mastering Frying Pan in Set 13.
What is Frying Pan?
- Effect: The Frying Pan trait allows champions to gain damage reduction against critical strikes and reflects a portion of the blocked damage back to the attacker.
- Synergy: Works best with frontline tanks and champions who need to sustain against heavy critical strike compositions, making it a strong counter to teams focusing on Assassins or high-damage carries.
Positioning Tips
- Place Frying Pan champions in the frontline to absorb critical damage.
- Protect your squishy backline champions by pairing Frying Pan units with crowd-control abilities.
The final thing is that combining two Spatulas, Frying Pans, or a Frying Pan and a Spatula makes an item that allows you to have an extra unit on the board.
