TFT Set 16 Meta Analysis

This page displays 58 team compositions ranked by performance to help you make informed decisions, based on 65.6K games analyzed from ranked matches. The current meta shows an average win rate of 48.8% and average placement of 4.53 across all tracked compositions.

Top Performing Compositions

The highest win rate composition is Caretaker/Defender with Bard as the primary carry, achieving a 83.0% win rate. Following closely is Blacksmith/Brawler at 82.6% win rate, and Bruiser/Caretaker at 76.7%. These compositions represent the strongest options in the current meta for players looking to maximize their LP gains.

Playstyle Breakdown

Understanding how each composition plays helps you choose the right one for your game state:

Caretaker/Defender (Late Game): scales into late game with consistent top 4 finishes — build around Bard
Blacksmith/Brawler (Late Game): scales into late game with consistent top 4 finishes — build around Veigar
Bruiser/Caretaker (Late Game): scales into late game with consistent top 4 finishes — build around Sion

Best for Winning Lobbies

If your goal is to win first place rather than just top 4, consider Blacksmith/Brawler which achieves first place in 32.3% of games. With only a 0.1% pick rate, this composition is rarely contested.

Most Consistent for Climbing

For players focused on consistent LP gains, Blacksmith/Brawler offers the best average placement at 2.77. Consistent compositions minimize bottom 4 finishes and provide steady climbing, even if they don't win lobbies as often.

Hidden Gems - Uncontested Picks

These compositions have above-average win rates but low pick rates, making them excellent choices when your primary composition is contested:

Caretaker/Defender: 83.0% win rate with only 0.3% pick rate
Blacksmith/Brawler: 82.6% win rate with only 0.1% pick rate
Bruiser/Caretaker: 76.7% win rate with only 0.2% pick rate

Meta Contestation

The most popular composition is Defender/Yordle with a 2.1% pick rate, though its 39.7% win rate suggests it may be over-contested. Defender/Arcanist follows at 0.9% pick rate. When multiple players contest the same composition, consider pivoting to less popular alternatives to improve your odds.
