Introduction

🚀Hello everyone! I am an experienced TFT player, and you can call me "Monsters." The purpose of this guide is to share with you the Vanguard Marksman composition at a Challenger-level standard. I have not only tested it in real matches but also researched various sources, especially learning from the best TFT players in the world, such as ZETA Title, Huanmie, and Xunge. Below are the most important things to know when playing this composition:🚀

Overview

📌 This Vanguard Marksman composition is quite expensive, so you need to play Fast 8.

📌 This is a very stable composition because it does not require 5-cost units to complete the lineup at Level 8.

📌 On the other hand, its power ceiling is relatively low, so this comp typically aims for a third to fifth place finish rather than contesting for first.

📌 At Level 9, Aurora, Garen, and Zac are the key 5-cost units you should add to your composition.

When to play

✍️ When You Have AD Items

✍️ Since this composition requires two different item sets, prioritizing the right items during the carousel and item selection is crucial. Ensuring both your frontline and backline receive optimal equipment will significantly improve your chances of success.

Items

Both Xayah and Aphelios are the main damage-dealing Marksmen and cost 4 gold, but keep in mind that they require different ideal items to maximize their effectiveness.

✅ Xayah primarily deals ability damage, so Infinity Edge is crucial, and Spear of Shojin is also a strong choice.

✅ Aphelios primarily deals auto-attack (AA) damage, so Guinsoo's Rageblade is crucial, and Runaan's Hurricane is also a strong choice.

The following items are optional choices depending on the situation:

Last Whisper

Giant Slayer

🛠️ Since this composition has a low power ceiling and is completed at Level 8, you should prioritize Augments that enhance its strength and combat effectiveness to secure a top placement at Level 8.

🛠️ One of the strongest Augments is "Little Buddies." Normally, you can only place two units that cost less than 2 gold, so here’s a recommended composition when using this Augment:
