Teamfight Tactics Patch 14.4: Worlds Patch!

A small but very important patch as TFT Set 10 hits its competitive climax. We got the TFT Patch 14.4 summary here.

Even though Teamfight Tactics Set 10, Remix Rumble has been the most complex set of all time, the balance team has done a fantastic job at keeping the metagame stabilized. As a result and in an attempt to not completely off-set the balance ahead of many Regional Qualifiers and the Remix Rumble Championship, the 14.4 patch for TFT is a lot lighter than usual. 

The Best Comps in TFT Set 3.5 Revival

However, that doesn't mean there aren't important changes players need to be aware of especially as players dive into the last patch of the first-ever TFT Revival as TFT Set 3.5 will be leaving at the end of this patch. With that said, here are all the changes that players should know before hitting ranked when TFT Patch 14.4 hits live servers on Thursday, February 22nd.
