We’ve got the Teamfight Tactics (TFT) 9.16B Patch Notes and it looks lik there’s quite a few small changes to various champions coming up! Draven, Jinx, Kayle, Lucian, and Vi are all lined up for small nerfs. Brawler is getting a reduction in the amount of bonus health they give. Some champions are receiving a buff, these are Aatrox, Anivia, Gnar, Miss Fortune, Morgana, and Shen. Only one item is being changed, Luden’s Echo is getting a slight damage reduction.
This patch is now live!
In true B-side fashion, this patch will be fairly light. The biggest change is to the in-game matchmaking system, which should prevent you from seeing the same opponent too often. This change will be an improvement on past versions, but we’re still not completely happy with the system and we’ll continue to tinker going forward. For gameplay, the meta is in a pretty good spot following the inclusion of our Hextech friends, and we’re giving out a few small bumps to the outliers.
Now, let’s get into it.
