TCL Season 13: The Dominance of “Strong – Cheap – Effective” Champions
Camille
As we dive into the new season of TCL Season 13, Camille is already making waves with her impressive performance in the current meta. Priced at just 2 gold, Camille is being hailed as an essential “team-carry” champion, outshining even heavy hitters like Vi or Caitlyn. With just three key items—Huyết Kiếm (Bloodthirster), Quyền Năng (Power), and Móng Vuốt Sterak (Sterak’s Claw)—Camille can sweep through opponents, potentially reaching a full team of 4, 5 gold champions, or even 6 at lower star levels.
Notably, with her 2 gold price tag, Camille is easy to level up. Players who manage to secure the right items can easily find themselves in the top ranks, as Camille’s synergy with the team can lead to a number one finish. If not, the Camille – Cảnh Binh (Duelist) build can still guarantee at least a top 4 placement.
Violet
While slightly less effective than Camille in terms of team-carry potential, Violet remains a strong choice for players who enjoy re-roll strategies. The Violet – Gia Đình (Family) composition can easily integrate with various other powerful builds like Chinh Phục (Conqueror) or Võ Sĩ Lồng Sắt (Ironclad), delivering solid performance across the board.
According to statistics from MetaTFT, Violet – Võ Sĩ Lồng Sắt is currently ranked S, boasting a top 4 placement rate of up to 62%. With a composition primarily consisting of 1-2 gold champions, Violet can yield impressive results, although her cost is relatively low.
Nocturne
Nocturne may not hold the same strength as seen in Season 1 or during previous comebacks, but in Season 13, he has become a rapidly rising star. Combined with the Cực Tốc (Rapid Fire) build, Nocturne proves to be an excellent choice for aggressive players.
Currently, Nocturne boasts a win rate of 53.5%, making him a noteworthy contender for tier 2 status. However, Nocturne truly shines when paired with the Cực Tốc build alongside the Kích Hệ Cổ Máy Tự Động (Automaton System). Therefore, it’s crucial for players to focus on maintaining this synergy rather than switching compositions frequently.
Other Strong Champions in TCL Season 13
The champions listed above represent three cost-effective options that yield high efficiency in the current meta. Additionally, players may consider selecting Powder Phục Kích (Ambush) with a 1 gold cost or Draven Chinh Phục (Conqueror). These are some of the most effective champions to climb the ranks while providing flexibility in playstyle and reduced competition.
