Huge changes are taking place.
Following the release of Teamfight Tactics Neon Nights, a large number of big changes meant to move the meta towards a healthier state are slated to take place within the first Set 6.5 update, according to game design director Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer and game designer Kent “Riot Kent” Wu via the 12.5 Patch Rundown.
Patch 12.5 is a large update that will take place on March 3. It’s also a long TFT patch, scheduled to last a whole month. The goals for the Set 6.5 patch were to move the meta towards a healthier state while starting to fine-tune Hextech Augments, according to Mortdog and Riot Kent. Rek’Sai was given a rework, along with dragon Innovator comp. Tome of Traits was nerfed again and over a dozen major changes are slated to take place for TFT Set 6.5 champions.
From traits and Hextech Augments to champions and items, here’s every big change scheduled to take place in TFT Patch 12.5, revealed during the Patch Rundown.
Combat Augments were hit with nerfs while a number of TFT Set 6.5 Hextech Augments were shifted tiers. High Five was also added back into the mix.
Bodyguards were buffed to improve early gameplay while providing players with a frontline option other than Bruiser. Chemtech was also nerfed but is still powerful, according to Mortdog and Riot Kent. The Enforcer trait was also hit with a nerf, with more changes to the trait expected to take place in TFT Patch 12.6. A rework was applied to dragon Innovator.
Bramble Vest is getting a nerf. The TFT Set 6.5 item is still a strong counter to Assassin comps, according to Mortdog and Riot Kent, just not as strong as it has been since the launch of Neon Nights.
Over a dozen big TFT Set 6.5 champion buffs and nerfs are scheduled to take place in Patch 12.5, from a Rek’Sai rework and an Ahri quality-of-life adjustment to a Lucian and Draven buff.
All TFT 12.5 Patch Rundown nerfs and buffs are subject to change prior to the official release of the update on March 2.
