Starting with 15.2, we’re experimenting with different rotation cadences for the Rotating Shop. That means your shop offerings might look different from your friends’, but don’t worry—you won’t miss out on anything you’re looking for in the shop because of this test.

Players with faster shop rotations will see fewer items per refresh, but more total content throughout the patch. Everything included in the standard 14-day (one patch) rotation will still appear within that same 14-day window—just spread across more frequent updates.

Currently, Power Up options offered for a champion are excluded from the next options you will see the next time you use a Power Up. We've seen players trying to tailor their Power Up selection by using it on different units before using it on their carry. This is an awkward and non-intuitive use of our bad-luck Power Up protection system, so we’re making it so that bad-luck protection only applies to concurrent uses on the same champion.

Let the Summer Anime Vibes continue with earlier Snax and Augments, Powerful starts, and… a Zac Volleyball spin-off episode?

Note that the Grand Finals is just a standard game of TFT. Unmodified, in its own lane, vanilla, pilot episode experience.

With the introduction of new Opening Encounters we’re taking a pass on all Encounter odds to keep the highly inflationary (but hype) ones less frequent. This will preserve their hype-ness but also make sure we don’t slip ever-forward into loot inflation—that’s Choncc’s thing.

We added 10 seconds to 2-1 to allow everyone a bit more breathing room to get used to all the new content in the Coliseum, but this show has been on the road for a while now. We ain’t got time to pull up a document and write about our favorite streamers or rank our favorite animes—surely [redacted by editor due to controversy] is the best anime, no?

Reintroducing just a touch of counterplay, but trust, they’ll still be near unstoppable!

We’re adjusting Crystal Gambit (3) to allow for more control over your cashouts, while also lowering the early Gem production, but raising the later Gem production scaling. Expect to gain Gems slower in the early game, slightly slower at Stage 3, and nearly the same in Stage 4. By being able to cash out at 3/6/9/12 losses compared to 4/8/12, we’re able to create a smoother power distribution before the 12 loss GIGA cashout. Meanwhile, we’re buffing (5) by making loot easier to acquire, hopefully to better enable Crystal Gambit (5) tempo play which we have yet to see find success. Lastly for (5), we’re removing the Flickerblade cashout, which compared to other (5) cashouts was far above our power expectations given the item’s success on Ashe. Now for the big one: Crystal Gambit (7) is our best performing non-Chase trait due to the defensive and offensive stats and the accelerated Crystal Gambit (5) rewards. We’re lowering the Damage Amp here, and completely cutting the accelerated Kill Count, but we see the buff to Crystal Gambit (5)’s lowered kill count requirements as softening the blow.

Both Edgelord and Heavyweight are performing below our standards for a (6) piece trait—they're effectively filler episode quality right now. So, we’re giving them small buffs in the hopes of seeing reroll Darius and Jayce start punching at their weight.

While Edgelord and Heavyweight are filler episodes, Sorcerer and Prodigy are already at the season finale, but don’t worry—we read the Manga, so we already know a small nerf will keep this class back in school.

The Crew’s Ship rockets are blasting off again! To keep their performance in check, we’re lowering their damage which impacts your third and fourth three-star, but we’re giving some of this power back to Ziggs, who’s struggled to find success amongst his Crewmates.

The stacking HP Garen fantasy isn’t quite there at Battle Academia (3), and with some nerfs to the rest of the roster, there’s room for growth, learning, and a bigger HP bar for this schoolyard blonde.

Lucian one and two-star performs as a great item holder that can get you far too late in the game. We’re lowering his consistency as a carry in these stages, but buffing his three-star form significantly in the hopes that one day he can be more than just a pass-off for your Karma items.

After blinking and cleansing off their B-patch nerfs, we’re back for more. Both Katarina and Gangplank are getting hit, but this time we’re also adding Rakan to the list. We’ll be keeping a close eye on Stretchy Arms Gangplank post nerf to ensure he's not making backliners preemptively walk the plank.

We’re adjusting Kobuko to make him less of a utility bot and more of an itemized tank, or carry at Mentor (4).

Smolder’s been the go-to choice for the majority of our trainers, so this patch we’re making each little pouch-sized creature worth the pick! Kog’Maw will get more zip to his zap, and Rammus will grow just a bit tougher, but also continue to take aggro (as a good tank should) when he leaps around the battlefield.

Currently, Jarvan IV can gain Mana during his leap duration. We’re fixing that to slightly slow his ability for repeat casts; a bugfix that should leave him in a better spot balance wise too.

Jinx is our worst performing three-star 4-cost, mostly due to a bug preventing her passive from updating with AP and Star Level. A quick fix here should get you excited for even more ramping Attack Speed and Crits!

More AD means better single-target damage for Volibear, which, alongside his ability that increases Attack Speed, should have him slapping through tanks like they’re… not tanks?

The man who needs no buff (cause he is buff) is getting a lot buffer this patch, with much more damage to his Champion tossing ability. As a compensation for this additional damage, we’re lowering the amount of Poros he gets at one star, and making it so all his Poro fans depart upon a loss (but hey, with this extra damage, maybe he just doesn’t lose?!). So, if you’re looking to preserve your Poro pals, throw Braum an item or three.

Seraphine’s Ultimate Friendship Bomb is rocking the Richter scale with joyous connection—now even more from her friends. She’s such a great community-maker that even when she dies mid-cast, she’ll be able to unleash a portion of her friendship on those who may resist. If this gives you Fates Ahri Spirit Bomb vibes or cultish Martyr vibes—you’re not wrong.

Many of our Augment nerfs have two goals: lower the power ceiling of Augments and slow down combat pacing. So while there are a few buffs here and there (especially for our struggling Champion Augments), the majority of our changes are nerfs.

Our Emblem Augments could use an update in the items they grant, so they no longer require Reforgers to avoid an awkward Sunfire Cape when you already have Burn or an Evenshroud when your comp is AP.

While Augment nerfs will slow combat pacing, nerfs to our strongest Core items will also help!

Fixing a few awkward Power Up options, while disabling one that’s far too strong with Lucian compared to other champions due to his Mana gain through missed projectiles.

Sorry, K’Sante, but Infinity Edge can’t be one of your most-used items.

We’re adjusting Unstoppable to only work on combat start and takedowns.

They aren’t bugs, they’re Hacks!!! Oh, wait, that was last set.
