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?
