High Ground Gaming Names 9 TFT Set 17 Prismatic Augments S-Tier, Drops 5 Into D-Tier

1 articles · Updated · highgroundgaming.com · May 26
  • High Ground Gaming’s latest TFT Set 17 tier list puts nine Prismatic augments in S-Tier and five in D-Tier, with Tactician’s Kitchen called the clear best-in-set option.
  • The outlet favors augments that add team size, emblems, Radiant items or cheaper leveling—highlighting New Recruit, Level Up!, Upward Mobility and Pandora’s Box as broadly powerful choices.
  • It also rates Golden Gamble, Hold the Line, The Trait Tree, We Stick Together and Win Out highly, arguing they either fit many comps or create especially strong late-game boards.
  • Five augments land in D-Tier because their payoff is delayed, too narrow or too risky: Build a Bud, Component Heist, Cursed Crown, Shimmerscale Essence and Tiniest Titan.
  • The rankings reflect Set 17’s emphasis on reaching level 9 or 10 and maximizing flexible board-building tools rather than slow economy or high-variance rewards.
After multiple nerfs, are former S-Tier augments still the key to winning in Set 17?
In what scenarios can 'unplayable' D-Tier augments like Cursed Crown actually secure a victory?
How does the new 'Gods' system alter the value of top-ranked augments?
