Playing against Twisted Fate

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

When TF activates his R, all enemies are visible — retreat toward your towers immediately.

2

The Gold Card is visible (golden glow): prepare a Flash or dash when you see the card cycling.

3

TF is squishy and weak in 1v1: assassins destroy him in lane if they gap-close.

4

Ping MIA when TF disappears: his R has semi-global range and his roams are very dangerous.
