Twisted Fate Tips and Tricks

Twisted Fate’s Pick a Card W works as follows: the first card shown is random, but the sequence thereafter is always Blue Card, Red Card, and then Gold Card. During the mid-game, look to split push with your R. Be ready to use your R to assist your team or collapse on rotating enemies. Twisted Fate needs some time to come online, so don't worry too much about getting kills and playing aggressively in the early game.
