New Teamfight Tactics Patch Notes Released, Here's What's New

07/24/2019 12:00 pm EDT

There's a new Teamfight Tactics patch releasing soon outside of the normal two-week schedule. This patch that's called 9.14B only applies to that game mode and not the traditional League of Legends experiences, and it's taking a look at some balance and bugfixes following the release of the sizable Patch 9.14 from last week. The update nerfs a few powerful trait bonuses such as the effects of having multiple Assassins and Sorcerers on your team as well as some fierce champions like Volibear.

It's not all just nerfs though, and some of the nerfs included aren't event that bad for players who constantly run these types of comps. Assassins and Sorcerers are in no way getting pushed out of the meta with this update, though their early game will take a hit. Some items and champions like Infinity Edge and Rengar will be in a better state after the patch releases while others will break somewhat even with trade-off changes.

Everything that's included in the update can be found here in the patch notes, but you can also find the full rundown of the update below since it's not quite as intensive as Patch 9.14 was.
