Rule summary
- Be respectful to other users.: Please keep all communication civil. Refusal to do so will lead to suspensions, the length of which will depend on the severity of the violations and on the personal history of infractions. Hate speech and any form of racist, sexist, homotransphobic, ableist or otherwise discriminatory language of behaviour is strictly prohibited and will lead to a permanent ban from the sub. For more info, please consult the [extended rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveTFT/wiki/rules2025/) page.
- General Post Content Rules: This sub is about in-depth and competitive-minded discussion of TFT, and posts adhere to a higher standard than on our sister subreddit. A post should show that its OP has put effort and thought into the subject matter. No promoting paid services, giveaways, or contests of any kind. Tournament posts are exempt. Posts with vague, spoiler-y or misleading titles will be removed. Account reviews, advice requests and short, one-answer questions will be redirected to the Daily Discussion Thread.
- Guide Posts: Written and video comp guides must include at minimum proof of 5 games played as well as the author's ranked profile. Guide titles should follow the convention below: [Patch#] "Comp Name" (Carry/Synergy/Playstyle) Guide Generic strategy guides should include a lolchess but match history is not necessary. Additional details can be found at [this wiki page](https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveTFT/wiki/rules)
- Recurring Megathreads: Posts or comments should go in the appropriate Megathread if applicable. Links to the Coaching, Moderation Feedback and Ranting Megathreads can be found in the sidebar. Unconstructive, overly aggressive and conspiratorial comments in the Daily Discussion Threads will be removed, and a corresponding 1-day suspension will be issued. The monthly Coaching and Moderation Feedback Megathreads will be posted on the 1st and 2nd days of each month.
- Competitive Integrity: r/CompetitiveTFT is a community dedicated to the highest level of integrity in competitive gaming. Please do not encourage, solicit, or share methods of cheating through [exploits](https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveTFT/comments/102fqyv/tfts_stance_on_bugs_vs_exploits/) or any third-party software. Discussion of cheating or exploits during official competitions is allowed as long as a clip or similarly adequate proof of the discussed interaction is provided.
- Follow the Reddit Code of Conduct: The sub's rules already cover most of [Reddit's Rules](https://redditinc.com/policies/reddit-rules). Violating any of the remaining ones will be met with a permanent ban from the subreddit, as well as an official escalation of the case to the Admins, which can lead to a ban from the entire platform. In particular: * Do not dox anyone. * No NSFW or illegal content. * Do not impersonate other individuals or entitites. * No explicit, abusive, or suggestive content involving minors.
Works well
- A written comp guide with proof of 5 games played, your ranked profile, and a title that follows their [Patch#] convention.
- A generic strategy guide that includes a lolchess, since match history is not required for those.
- An in-depth patch analysis or competitive discussion post that clearly shows effort and thought.
- A tournament announcement, because tournament posts are the one exemption to the promotion ban.
- Short questions and account reviews placed in the Daily Discussion Thread instead of a new post.
Avoid
- Promoting a paid service, giveaway, or contest, because “General Post Content Rules” bans all of that outright.
- Posting a comp guide without proof of 5 games played and your ranked profile, because “Guide Posts” requires both.
- Using a vague, spoiler-y, or misleading title, because “General Post Content Rules” says those posts get removed.
- Asking a short one-answer question or requesting an account review as a standalone post, because those get redirected to the Daily Discussion Thread.
- Putting content in a new post when a megathread exists for it, because “Recurring Megathreads” sends posts to the right thread.
- Being uncivil or using discriminatory language, because “Be respectful to other users.” can mean suspensions or a permanent ban, and “Follow the Reddit Code of Conduct” escalates serious cases to the Admins with a platform-wide ban possible.
What r/CompetitiveTFT Is For
This community is a hub for competitive Teamfight Tactics. People come here for ranked help and discussion, tournament information, and esports news. The rules make one thing clear: this sub holds posts to a higher standard than the casual TFT subreddit. A post should show the person put real effort and thought into the topic. The room is built around in-depth, competitive-minded discussion of the game, not quick chats or casual memes.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rule that decides most things here is “General Post Content Rules”. It says this sub is for in-depth, competitive-minded discussion, that posts must show effort and thought, and that promoting paid services, giveaways, or contests is not allowed. The only exception is tournament posts. The same rule bans vague, spoiler-y, or misleading titles, and it sends account reviews, advice requests, and short one-answer questions to the Daily Discussion Thread. “Guide Posts” matters if you ever share a guide, because written and video comp guides need proof of 5 games played plus the author's ranked profile, and generic strategy guides need a lolchess. “Recurring Megathreads” matters because posts that fit a megathread get moved, and the Daily Discussion Thread has its own conduct standard. “Be respectful to other users.” matters because uncivil or discriminatory behavior leads to suspensions or a permanent ban. “Competitive Integrity” bans encouraging or sharing cheats, exploits, or third-party software for cheating. “Follow the Reddit Code of Conduct” covers the rest, with permanent bans and escalation to the Admins for serious violations.
What To Post
A good post here is a deep, effortful contribution to competitive TFT talk. If you play the game, a comp guide with proof of 5 games played and your ranked profile is exactly the shape this community asks for, and the title should follow their guide convention. A generic strategy guide works if you include a lolchess. If you are a founder, the honest play is to participate as a player first. Share a detailed breakdown, a patch analysis, or a tournament discussion, with a clear and specific title. Keep short questions and account reviews in the Daily Discussion Thread. If you run a tournament, tournament posts are the one exempt category, so that is a legitimate thing to post.
What To Avoid
The fastest way to get removed here is promotion. The rules say no promoting paid services, giveaways, or contests of any kind, and only tournament posts are exempt. So no launching your coaching service, your stats tool with a paid tier, or a giveaway tied to your brand. Low effort posts get removed too. A post needs to show thought, and vague, spoiler-y, or misleading titles get taken down. Short questions, account reviews, and advice requests belong in the Daily Discussion Thread, not as standalone posts. If you post a comp guide, missing the proof of 5 games played or your ranked profile will sink it. Cheating talk is off limits unless it is about cheating during official competitions and you include a clip or similar proof. And being rude or discriminatory can get you suspended or permanently banned.

Common questions about r/CompetitiveTFT
Can I share a free tool I built if I ask for nothing in return?
Only if it is a genuine guide with proof of 5 games played and your ranked profile, and even then the post must be about the game, not a pitch for your product.
Are links allowed at all?
Yes, links are allowed, but the post around the link still has to meet the effort and content standards.
Where do I ask a quick question about my ranked games?
Use the Daily Discussion Thread, because short one-answer questions and account reviews get redirected there.
Can I post about a tournament my company is running?
Yes, tournament posts are exempt from the promotion ban, so tournament information fits the community.
