Fae
Fae is a TFT Set 18 trait carried by 4 champions. Its breakpoints are 2 and 4; each one unlocks a new tier of the trait. It is currently played in 20 meta comps; the strongest is Alune Vanguard (S tier).
Your team's damage, healing, and shielding attracts Pixies. Each Pixie grants Fae champions Attack Damage and Ability Power, and after they fall below 50% Health, they heal for each Pixie.
