Riot Games

The latest update for Teamfight Tactics is here with TFT Set 12 going strong in the back half of its season. TFT Patch 14.20 brings in a ton of balance changes to Traits, Champion, Augments, Charms and more that players will want to be on top of before jumping into games when the patch goes live on Wednesday, October 9.

Here is an in-depth breakdown of everything players need to know about TFT Patch 14.20. 

Traits

The three main traits of interest in TFT Patch 14.20 are Arcana, Faerie and Eldritch. The first two are seeing nerfs as they dominated the last patch and, without adjustments, will continue to do so.
