TFT Best Comp Set 17: Freljord Invokers Guide for Easy LP

If you're looking for the TFT best comp in Set 17 Space Gods, Freljord Invokers is it. This comp has sat at S-tier on TFTactics since the set launched, and it's the most consistent way to climb right now.

I've been spamming this comp for the past two weeks. It's not flashy. It doesn't require hitting a lucky 5-cost at level 7. It just works.

Here's everything you need to play it.

Why Freljord Invokers Is the Best TFT Comp Right Now

Set 17 Space Gods replaced the carousel with the Realm of the Gods boon system, and Freljord Invokers benefits from this more than any other comp. The boon choices let you accelerate econ or stack components — both of which feed directly into this comp's gameplan.

The core idea: stack Freljord units for the Chill debuff (reduced attack speed on enemies), pair them with Invoker synergy for bonus mana generation, and let Lissandra delete the enemy board with her Frozen Tomb ability.

I believe this is the single best comp for climbing below Master tier. It's forgiving, flexible on items, and rarely fully contested because people chase flashier comps like Targon or Bilgewater Gunslingers.

Full Unit Lineup

Your final board at level 8-9, per Mobalytics' Freeze Time comp guide:

Unit Cost Traits Role
Lissandra 4 Freljord, Invoker Primary carry
Anivia 4+ Freljord, Invoker Secondary carry
Volibear 3 Freljord Frontline
Sejuani 3 Freljord Frontline/CC
Braum 2 Freljord Tank
Ornn 4 Freljord Frontline/Items
Zilean 3 Invoker Utility
Kennen 2 Yordle, Invoker CC
Kobuko & Yuumi 3 Invoker Healing/Utility

This gives you 4 Freljord (Chill aura) and 4 Invoker (bonus mana per attack for your team).

Core Items for Lissandra

Lissandra's Frozen Tomb deals 275/415/2500 magic damage to the primary target and splits AOE damage to nearby enemies. Chilled enemies take 12% bonus damage. That synergy with Freljord's Chill is what makes her absurd.

Best-in-slot:

  • Hextech Gunblade — Spell vamp keeps her alive through fights
  • Jeweled Gauntlet — Her AOE can crit, which scales the damage ceiling massively
  • Giant Slayer or Archangel's Staff — Giant Slayer into tanky lobbies, Archangel's for longer fights where she casts multiple times

Acceptable alternatives:

  • Blue Buff (if you can't find tear items for Archangel's)
  • Morellonomicon (anti-heal utility)
  • Rabadon's Deathcap (pure damage)

Slam components early. Don't greed for perfect items — a Lissandra with "good enough" items at level 8 beats a Lissandra with perfect items at level 7 every time.

Tank Items for Frontline

Your Braum, Sejuani, or Volibear need to buy time for Lissandra to cast.

  • Warmog's Armor — Raw HP
  • Gargoyle Stoneplate — Scales with enemies targeting your frontline
  • Redemption — AOE healing helps your whole team survive

Augment Priority

The boon system in Set 17 changes how augments interact with your comp. Here's what to look for:

S-tier augments:

  • Freljord-specific augments (anything that buffs Chill duration or Freljord units)
  • Invoker-specific augments (bonus mana generation)
  • Jeweled Lotus (if you didn't get Jeweled Gauntlet)

A-tier augments:

  • Econ augments (Hedge Fund, Rich Get Richer) — lets you fast 8
  • Component augments — more items = stronger Lissandra

Avoid:

  • Attack speed augments (you're a caster comp)
  • Reroll augments (this is a fast-8 comp, not a reroll comp)

How to Play: Stage-by-Stage Guide

Early Game (Stage 2)

Pick up any Freljord or Invoker units you see. Braum and Kennen are your early anchors — both are 2-costs and easy to find.

Don't level aggressively. Econ to 50 gold. Play your strongest board — even if it's not Freljord units. Losing some HP early is fine.

Boon priority: Gold/XP boons or component boons. The Realm of the Gods gives you meaningful choices starting Stage 2 — take whatever accelerates your econ.

Mid Game (Stage 3)

Start collecting Volibear, Sejuani, and Zilean. These are your 3-cost core units.

Level to 6 at 3-2. Level to 7 at 4-1. Start rolling at 7 for Lissandra.

Once you hit Lissandra, slam items immediately and stabilize your board. You should be running 3 Freljord + 2 Invoker minimum by now.

💡 Pro tip: If you're duo-queuing or looking for a TFT squad to grind ranked with, check out Tapin for TFT — it's built for finding teammates who actually communicate. Use code SPACEGODS when signing up for bonus features during the Set 17 launch event.

Late Game (Stage 4+)

Level to 8 at 4-5 or 5-1 depending on HP.

At level 8, you should hit your full comp: 4 Freljord + 4 Invoker. Roll down to find Lissandra 2-star and Anivia.

If you hit level 9, add a strong standalone unit like Aurelion Sol or whatever legendary fits your lobby.

Positioning

This comp has a straightforward positioning template:

Back row (corners): Lissandra + Anivia. Keep them as far from assassins as possible. Lissandra specifically wants a corner spot so her AOE hits clustered enemies.

Front row: Braum, Sejuani, Volibear, Ornn. Stack them tight so Gargoyle Stoneplate / Redemption gets value.

Middle: Kennen, Zilean, Kobuko & Yuumi. These units provide CC and utility from the second row.

If you're facing assassin comps, move Lissandra to the opposite corner from where assassins jump. Watch enemy boards in Stage 3 to identify assassin players.

When NOT to Play This Comp

I believe in being honest about a comp's weaknesses. Freljord Invokers struggles when:

  • 3+ players are contesting it. If you see multiple players holding Lissandras and Freljord units, pivot to Targon or Noxus Disruptors instead.
  • You get zero AP components. Lissandra needs at least a Rod or Tear. If your first three components are all AD/tank, consider pivoting to Bilgewater Gunslingers or Noxus.
  • The lobby is hyper-aggressive. If you're taking 15+ damage per round in Stage 3, you might not survive to hit your power spike at level 8.

Flexibility wins games. Don't force Freljord Invokers every single game — but when it's open, it's free LP.

TFT Set 17 Meta Context

For context, here are the other S-tier comps on TFTactics right now:

  • Targon — Aurelion Sol carry, strong but harder to play
  • Arcanists — Veigar/Lux carry, needs specific augments
  • Bilgewater Gunslingers — AD-focused, good pivot option
  • Freljord Quickstrikers — Melee variant of Freljord, more volatile
  • Noxus Disruptors — Gwen carry, consistent but lower ceiling
  • Shadow Isle Wardens — Tank-heavy, slow but steady

Freljord Invokers stands out because it combines consistency with a high ceiling. A 2-star Lissandra with good items can solo-carry a lobby. And the Freljord Chill synergy makes your whole team tankier by slowing enemy attack speeds.

I believe the comp will stay S-tier through at least the next patch unless Riot specifically nerfs Lissandra's Frozen Tomb ratios or the Freljord trait.

FAQ

What is the best TFT comp in Set 17 Space Gods?

Freljord Invokers is currently the #1 S-tier comp on TFTactics. It uses Lissandra as the primary carry with Freljord Chill synergy and Invoker mana generation to consistently top-4.

What items does Lissandra need in TFT Set 17?

Best-in-slot is Hextech Gunblade + Jeweled Gauntlet + Giant Slayer or Archangel's Staff. She needs at least one AP component (Rod or Tear) to function — her Frozen Tomb scales with AP and can crit with Jeweled Gauntlet.

Is Freljord Invokers hard to play?

No. It's one of the easier S-tier comps because the units are mostly 2-3 costs with Lissandra as the only key 4-cost. Mobalytics rates it as "Medium" difficulty. The gameplan is simple: econ early, level to 8, find Lissandra, win.

What level should I roll for Lissandra?

Level 7 or 8. Your odds of hitting 4-cost units increase significantly at level 7, but level 8 is the sweet spot. Roll at 4-1 (level 7) if you're low HP, or save gold and roll at 4-5/5-1 (level 8) if healthy.

What do I do if Freljord Invokers is contested?

Scout early. If 2+ other players are holding Freljord units, pivot to Targon (Aurelion Sol carry) or Noxus Disruptors (Gwen carry) — both are S-tier alternatives that share some overlapping units.
