TFT Patch 12.20 Notes Champion Changes

Rengar and Soy’fen end up on the nerf list, while Riot’s TFT team applies a slight buff to Vollibear. “Despite the name of his spell, Rengar, has been seen tearing up the Convergence. We had a smaller nerf planned for Rengar, but with our nerfs to Rengar’s biggest counter, Soy’fen, we’ve had to increase these nerfs preemptively. With no utility, Volibear is the type of champion where if he isn’t dealing damage or soaking it up, he just isn’t very useful. So we’re giving him some more Health via an earlier cast of his spell.” read the official blog post on Riot’s site.

With rising popularity and win rates over the past week, Riot’s TFT team had to ship a number of large nerfs targeted at the Shi Oh Yu and Sy’fen comps. The most obvious is the Jade Statue Attack Speed nerf, which impacts both Shi Oh Yu and Sy’fen, in addition to Pantheon, who being AD, greatly benefit from it. Pantheon nerfs and removing one of the strongest Silver Augments (Jade Crest) intend to insert this comp into a much more balanced state within the existing meta.

TFT Patch 12.20 Augment Changes

Built Different and Double Trouble cause players to make tradeoffs to get more power from playing a certain way, but upon being stacked, they create too much power without adding additional tradeoffs. While the highroll of collecting all the BDs/DTs is appealing, it creates a situation where the Augments can’t be balanced appropriately as individual picks. TFT’S dev team sees the Augment selections as critical decision-making moments that are harmed when taking a repeat BD or DT will always be the best option.

  • Beast’s Den (Shapeshifter) Attack and Movement Speed: 35% changed to 25%
  • Built Different: You can no longer be offered multiple tiers of Built Different
    Cutthroat Removed
  • Darkflight Crown now grants Titan’s Resolve instead of Protector’s Vow

TFT Patch 12.20 Notes Item Changes

Our Zz’Rot Portal changes will make the item more intuitive and fix the feels-bad movement pathing for units that cannot easily get into the holder’s attack range (yet are still within 4 hexes).
Zz’Rot Portal no longer has a maximum taunt range of 4 hexes. It will now taunt all units that are in range to attack the holder.

TFT Patch 12.20 Notes Bug Fixes

  • Dodgings: Successfully fixed a typo in Jax’s tooltip

  • Jayce no longer fails to gain his Ability’s resistances if his initial cast completely misses
  • Shyvana no longer fails to cast with 2+ Attack Range. She can now cast as long as enemies are within her Flame Breath’s range (roughly 4 hexes)
  • Reverted the Cannoneer bug fix from last patch that allowed the cannon shot to work properly with Celestial Blessing as this created issues with Whispers Cannoneers…yeah.
