Teamfight Tactics
News
Here’s what to expect in TFT patch 13.24 releasing on Dec. 6 at roughly 6 a.m. PT!
The first major balance changes are coming to Set 10 Teamfight Tactics (TFT) and providing slight but much-needed adjustments ahead of theTFT Vegas Open. With a meta dominated by getting to level 9 as soon as possible, the balance team looked to remedy the situation without drastic changes days before the competition. TFT lead designer Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer posted his patch rundown earlier than usual to give players time to learn the version of the game they will be competing on in Las Vegas.
What’s in the TFT patch notes for 13.24?
These are all the upcoming Riot-labeled large changes. For information on the additional small changes, refer to the newly released officialpatch notes.
Trait changes in TFT patch 13.24
8-Bit
8-Bit is a scaling trait that is taking too long to ramp up and the Grand Prize is currently too difficult to achieve. These buffs should assist 8-Bit’s viability.
Country
Slight nerfs are being introduced to the team-wide bonuses that come into effect when the Hecarim is summoned. The main idea here is to reduce the power that early 3-piece Country can have.
Guardian
This defensive trait is considered “overstatted” in its current iteration. There is too much strength in the shielding, especially since early guardian units Kennen and Neeko are so valuable as units along with their secondary synergies, with KDA, True Damage, and Superfan.
Jazz
Jazz is a reinvention of a previous set augment, Stand United, into a trait. The ability to take advantage of its full potential in the late game was underestimated. With how easy it can be slotted in, Jazz was giving too much combat power. Mortdog considers this the biggest nerf of the patch.
Champion nerfs in TFT patch 13.24
The second biggest nerf of the patch is to possibly the most valuable 1-cost unit in the set.
Yone
4-cost
Due to the meta being so level 9 and legendary unit-oriented, the 4-costs are receiving a lot of love in an attempt to make level 8 compositions more viable.
Binary Airdrop
Infernal Contract
These are the most notable augment changes to take note of for the upcoming patch. Additionally, portal name changes and bug fixes round out this relatively small but important patch.
If you want to check those out and the rest of the augment changes, refer to TFT community member Kayna’s patch notes slideshere! It’s important to note that an additional bug fix not on the list is Goldmancer’s Staff. It should trigger the intended amount instead of too often.
