About

Tactical Toolkit

Features
Read full description

Tactical Toolkit is a focused interactive utility for Teamfight Tactics (TFT) players. It bundles planning tools and calculators you drive with your own inputs—so you can reason about comps, economy, items, positioning, and shop odds without treating the app as a static encyclopedia. Core interactive features • Best comps (meta) Browse popular, stat-backed team comps as a meta reference. Tap a comp for details; when richer data is available you’ll see more charts and common item builds. You can also apply that lineup to the Board to start your sandbox quickly. • Custom tier list builder: Build personal S–D boards for champions, traits, and items. Tap a slot to pick from a list; long-press a filled slot to clear. Rankings are saved on this device only—no drag-and-drop board. • Positioning sandbox: Interactive hex-grid board. Place and drag units, adjust board level (with star caps), assign items, and sketch positioning. You can import a lineup from Comp ideas when you want a quick starting layout. • Item Slammer: Enter counts of raw components from bundled recipes. The app shows a greedy craft sequence (prioritizing higher-tier crafts with stable tie-breaks) and parallel craft limits per recipe so you can see what your bench can realistically slam. • Economy forecaster: Set current gold, round, win/loss streak, horizon, and a simple win-every-round vs lose-every-round assumption. The app projects gold over upcoming rounds and charts income breakdown (base, interest, streak, combat) using bundled economy rules—a planning aid, not spend-by-spend coaching. • Roll probability: Uses shop odds by level from bundled data. Optional wishlist estimates and a unit pool table when you maintain pool data in the app bundle. Numbers are model-based (e.g. independent shop slots and simplified within-cost weights unless pool overrides are present); live shops depend on the real pool, augments, and patches. Why it’s different Tactical Toolkit is built around local math and your parameters: filters, sliders, inventories, and assumptions—not a passive content feed. Several screens still rely on bundled game parameters (patch drift is normal); treat outputs as planning aids and verify in the live client. Important legal disclaimer Tactical Toolkit is an unofficial utility and is not affiliated with, maintained by, or endorsed by Riot Games, Inc. Teamfight Tactics and Riot Games are trademarks or registered trademarks of Riot Games, Inc. Game rules and balance change with patches; this app is a mathematical and planning tool, and all in-game decisions should be confirmed in the live game.

Verdict

The call

Alien Path's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
