Kha Y Tran In Teamfight Tactics Set 17, the Planetary Nami comp is a strong meta pick. It is easy to learn. At the same time, it scales very well into late game. Because of that, many players use it to climb rank safely.
This is a fast level 8 comp. It focuses on buffing Nami through the Planetary trait. As a result, Nami becomes your main damage dealer. Meanwhile, your frontline protects her and buys time.

Strengths of the Planetary Comp in TFT Set 17
First of all, the biggest strength of this comp is its flexibility. If you are lucky enough to get a Planetary emblem, or alternatively, an augment that grants Spatula value, you can easily adapt your board.
- Nami: Main carry with consistent AoE magic damage
- Riven: Secondary carry that shines in mid game
- Tahm Kench / Ornn: Core frontline tanks
- Blitzcrank: Disrupts enemy positioning
Furthermore, when you give Riven a Planetary emblem, you can remove weaker units like Nasus. As a result, your team becomes more efficient and significantly stronger in the late game.
Best Items for the Planetary Comp
Nami (Main Carry)
To begin with, you should prioritize items that allow frequent spell casting:
- Blue Buff
- Jeweled Gauntlet
- Rabadon’s Deathcap or Nashor’s Tooth
In particular, the combination of Jeweled Gauntlet + Nashor’s Tooth is both affordable and highly effective. Therefore, it is often considered a core setup.
Riven (Secondary Carry)
Meanwhile, Riven benefits from leftover items. More specifically, she needs survivability to stay in fights longer:
- Bloodthirster
- Edge of Night
- Sterak’s Gage
Tanks (Tahm Kench / Ornn)
On the other hand, your frontline should focus entirely on durability:
- Warmog’s Armor
- Bramble Vest
- Dragon’s Claw
As expected, a strong frontline is essential. Otherwise, Nami will not have enough time to deal damage.
Recommended Augments
In addition, choosing the right augments will significantly increase your win rate:
- Last Stand
- Branching Out
- Trait Crest / Crown
- URF (Spatula-focused)
- Ascension
- Level Up
Overall, these augments either boost scaling or improve consistency. Therefore, they fit perfectly with this comp.
How to Play the Planetary Comp
Early Game (Level 4–5)
At the start, your priority is to save HP and build economy. For example, you can use strong early units like Teemo or Nasus.
At the same time, you should:
- Slam early items for Nami
- Use a temporary item holder
- Avoid forcing the full comp too early
In general, your goal is to maintain tempo. In other words, you want to minimize HP loss while preparing for mid game.
Mid Game (Level 6–7)
Next, at level 6 (stage 3-2), you should begin shaping your composition:
- Activate early Planetary synergies if possible
- Mix in strong traits like Dark Star or Wanderer
However, this is also your weakest phase. Because of that, you may need to sacrifice HP in order to push levels faster.
Late Game (Level 8–9)
After that, once you reach level 8 (stage 4-2), you should roll down:
- Find Nami 2-star and Riven 2-star
- Complete your frontline
- Activate key Planetary breakpoints
Once stabilized, you should:
- Save gold again
- Push level 9
- Add strong 5-cost units like Shen
Ultimately, level 9 is your final power spike. As a result, your chances of finishing top 4 — or even top 1 — increase significantly.
Tips for Playing the Planetary Comp
- Without a Planetary emblem, the comp will, unfortunately, drop by about one tier
- Position Blitzcrank to target the enemy’s main tank
- Place Riven next to Blitzcrank to capitalize on displacement
- Flex tanks like Nunu or Rammus if needed
- Most importantly, ensure your frontline is strong enough for Nami to scale damage over time
Final Thoughts
All things considered, the Planetary Nami carry comp is both powerful and reliable. Not only does it offer a clear game plan, but it also provides strong late-game scaling.
Therefore, if you manage your economy well, level at the right time, and optimize your items, you will consistently achieve high placements.
