TFT Placement Match Boosting

After each set reset you play five provisional matches. Two rules apply during them:

A bottom-four finish costs you no LP. A top-four finish awards extra LP beyond the normal amount.

Read that together and the shape is obvious: the downside is removed and the upside is amplified. Across those five games the worst realistic outcome is "no change" and the best is a meaningful head start.

Every other game you play for the rest of the set can cost you. These five can only help.

Because TFT resets harder than anything else.

At every rollover every player is repositioned between Iron II and Silver IV, regardless of whether they finished the previous set in Challenger or Gold IV. There's no partial protection and no soft landing.

So you begin every set from roughly the same place as everyone else, and your provisionals are the first and only mechanism you get to separate yourself before the ordinary grind begins.

A tier gained in provisionals is a tier you don't spend evenings climbing — and TFT games run 30 to 40 minutes, which makes a tier a meaningfully large amount of your life compared to games with ten-minute matches.

The most commonly missed thing on this page.

Solo ranked and Double Up each get their own set of five provisionals after a reset, with the same generous rules. Playing your solo provisionals does not consume your Double Up ones.

If you play both queues, that's two separate blocks of free upside every set — and most people burn one of them casually without noticing what it was worth.

Specify which queue you want in the order notes, or ask for both as one package.

Your provisional games played manually by a verified Challenger-level player who knows the current set, in your region, on PC or mobile.

Every LP gained and every bit of pass progress from those games stays on your account, along with an honest read afterwards on whether a rank climb on top makes sense from where you landed.

Visible rank resets to Iron II through Silver IV. Hidden MMR carries over from the previous set.

That's why two players both starting in Bronze III can climb at completely different speeds — and it's why provisionals matter beyond the visible result. Played well, they confirm a strong MMR and you gain more per top-four for weeks afterwards. Played badly, they drag it and the whole set grinds.

We check your MMR before quoting rather than pricing purely off where you were placed. If you finished the previous set strongly, provisionals are close to free money. If the last month of the previous set was a slide, we'll tell you what's realistic rather than overselling it.

Where did you finish the previous set, and how did the last few weeks of it go?

If you finished strongly, your carried MMR is healthy and provisionals are close to free money — five top-fours confirm a rating you already earned and you spend the rest of the set gaining more per result than the people around you.

If the last stretch of the previous set was a slide, provisionals will confirm the slide. That's not a failure of the service, it's what the mechanic does, and we'd rather tell you now than after you've paid.

Open live chat with that answer and how many provisionals you have left, and we'll give you a realistic target before you spend anything.

Here's the uncomfortable timing problem at the heart of this service.

Provisionals happen immediately after a set rollover — which is precisely the moment when nobody knows the new set. The units are new, the traits are new, the augment interactions are new, and the optimal lines haven't been worked out by anyone yet.

Set 18: Enchanted Wilds arrived in late August 2026 on patch 18.1. It's the first set built on Unreal Engine and it introduced Wisps — single-use power sources you buy one at a time from the rightmost shop slot every other round, offering combat benefits, resources or high-risk payoffs. Traits include Blossom, Riftbeast, Coven, Elderwood, Sprykin, Blackthorn, Fae and Inferno.

So your five highest-value games of the set get played while you're still learning what a Wisp does. That's the argument for this service in one sentence.

A booster who has put serious hours into the current set converts those five games at a rate that someone learning on the fly simply can't — and unlike the rest of the set, you don't get a second attempt.

The counterweight, and it's substantial.

Everyone else is in the same position. The lobbies you face during provisionals are full of players who also don't know the set yet, which makes the opposition softer and more erratic than it will be a month later.

A player who does know the set is therefore facing the weakest fields of the entire cycle at exactly the moment the scoring is most generous.

That combination — generous rules, confused lobbies, one-shot scarcity — is why the first fortnight after a rollover is the single best-value window in TFT, and why this page's order volume spikes harder at a set launch than any other service we sell.

Since there's no LP downside, the optimal approach is to maximise upside — and in TFT that's not the same as playing safe.

The most common pairing here, and it's arithmetic.

A climb starting from a good provisional result is a smaller job — fewer divisions to cover and a healthier confirmed MMR making each top-four worth more LP. Buying provisionals and then a rank climb together frequently costs less than buying the climb alone from a poor floor.

The bundle discount applies to the second service automatically. And if you play both queues, Double Up provisionals bundle the same way.

Worth saying plainly, because TFT is unusual here and it catches people out when scheduling.

A TFT match runs 30 to 40 minutes. Five of them back to back is a three-hour block, not an hour. That's longer than a full placement run in most other games, and it's why provisional orders here are scheduled as a half-day rather than squeezed into an evening.

It also explains why so many players waste their provisionals. Three hours is a serious sitting, and the temptation after a set drops is to queue two games before bed, play them tired, and come back the next day having already spent 40% of the single best mechanic in the game.

If you're playing them yourself, block the time properly. If you'd rather not, that's what this page is for.

Provisionals only exist immediately after a reset. There's no way to earn them back, no second allocation mid-set, and no equivalent mechanic later.

So the practical deadline isn't a date — it's your own next few ranked games. Every casual queue before you order is one of the five gone.
