League of Legends has gotten a lot of game modes over the course of its lifetime. From that came popular game modes like ARAM, Teamfight Tactics, Nexus Blitz, and more. Ranked and Normals in Summoner’s Rift have been a staple as ARAM has joined in later on. Quick Play is also being introduced as an alternative to Normals for the future.

Teamfight Tactics was a game mode created as a limited game mode, but it really took off. It took off to the point that Riot created Teamfight Tactics as its own game mode with a client and such. Players have really gravitated towards the game mode to challenge themselves and climb up in the ranks for Teamfight Tactics.

Riot Games has expanded their partnership with Amazon, as multiple gaming titles will now receive Prime Gaming Loot. Teamfight Tactics will receive their own set of content as well. Here is what we know so far.

Every summer, Riot releases massive events across all of its games. And this year won’t be an exception.

Around the same time last year, we received the Star Guardian event. It took place across League of Legends PC, Wild Rift, Legends of Runeterra, and Teamfight Tactics. While the theme was similar, each game offered something entirely unique in this event.

Usually, we see many new contents added to TFT or Teamfight Tactics during these events. These additions include new tacticians, emotes, boards, TFT-exclusive game modes, etc.

Not too long ago, it was revealed that the summer event for this year will be called Soul Fighter. And similar to previous years, it will occur across almost all Riot Games except Valorant.

With this Soul Fighter event on TFT, we are going to see a new pass, tactician, board, and more. Here’s everything you have to know about this event.

Missions

For the Soul Fighter event, the missions will be divided into four different mission sets: Gwen Missions, Samira Missions, Lux Missions, and Sett Missions. You can complete it in whatever order you prefer. After completing a set, you can also gain a specific emote representing that champion.

Events are commonplace in League of Legends. For every major update, Riot releases an event alongside. Moreover, events are one of the easiest yet most significant ways that Riot could keep players engaged for a longer period. Additionally, during major League of Legends events, we also get an event in Teamfight Tactics.

For some time frame, Riot Games releases new events during some real-life occasions, like Lunar New Year, Valentine’s Day, Christmas, etc. One of the upcoming events that we will receive an event on is Pride Month.

Pride Month is a month dedicated to celebrating LGBTQ+ people. Almost every major modern game celebrates this event, and League of Legends and TFT are no exception.

As for rewards, players can earn Arena, Little Legends (through Little Legends Eggs), emotes, fireworks, Star Shards, etc. While most of these rewards could be earned from the TFT battle pass, sometimes Riot gives them away through event missions. Furthermore, frequent missions in TFT could be completed by playing standard League of Legends, as the games are connected.

Riot revealed the Pride 2023 rewards for League of Legends a while back. These rewards included three new emotes. And now the developers have revealed the rewards for Teamfight Tactics. Moreover, here’s how you can earn them as well.

Teamfight Tactics, or TFT, is an auto-battler game mode within League of Legends. The Auto Chess mod inspired this game in DotA 2. In this mode, players can purchase champions from the League of Legends universe and pit them against each other. And similar to battle royale games, the last person standing wins.

Though this game mode was released in 2019 inside League of Legends, many players primarily play TFT and don’t touch League. Because of it, there are standalone versions of TFT in both IOS and Android.

Similar to League of Legends, there are many customizable options in TFT. These customization options include emotes, Little Legends, and Arenas.

The arena is the main battlefield for the players of TFT. Each player has their own arena they can customize through skins. There are many arena skins in TFT. Additionally, Some could be unlocked for free by completing missions. And some are exclusive skins that can only be unlocked through the battle pass.

Patch 13.6 introduced a new set to TFT, Glitched Out. This latest set added unique traits, augments and cosmetics to the game. Moreover, to balance the meta, Riot even released patch 13.6B. And recently, they released patch 13.7 of Teamfight Tactics. In that patch, Riot released new system changes and adjustments to already existing traits, units, augments, etc.

As patch 13.8 is on the horizon, Riot will add some new customization options to TFT. Additionally, one of them is a new mythic arena, Mecha Prime Zero.

The post TFT Mecha Prime Zero Mythic Arena appeared first on GameRiv.

Teamfight Tactics has gotten a big popularity burst since its inception. The fact that Riot invested a lot of their game modes staff to get TFT up and running shows how much they care about this auto-battler strategy game. This led to multiple updates that improved gameplay and a variety of different Sets to change how the game worked from a player’s perspective.

Patch 13.6 introduce Glitched Out, the latest Set in TFT. This released new team traits, augments, little legends, and cosmetics for arenas and characters. New traits like Infiniteams, Riftwalker, Quickshot, and Parallel were introduced alongside changes to the existing sets.

To follow up, Patch 13.6B was also released to do several touch-ups to balance the game. In light of that, Patch 13.7 is heading to TFT soon, as this is the first major update since the new Set. Let’s talk about all of what’s coming in this new patch.

System Changes

Starting with System changes, there is a small change coming as part of adapting the game loop. This one will change how items are distributed as the variance is being changed.

Traits

As per usual, Traits are being balanced by the dev team. This is a constantly changing system that requires fine-tuning as meta pop up. This time around, Lasercorps, Gadgeteen, Quickdraw and Sureshot are some of the major changes. Here are all the trait updates for Patch 13.7.

The post TFT Set 7 Dragonlands Cheat Sheet: All the New Traits and Units appeared first on GameRiv.

The biggest mid-set update, Set 6.5 Gizmos & Gadgets: Neon Nights, is here with more than 20 new units and 80 new Hextech Augments.

After the massive patch 12.6 changes, the game was somewhat in a balanced state, though Hextech and high-valued level 1 Sivir were causing havoc on the board. Riot, however, did push a B-patch nerfing Hextech along with Warwick & Talon reroll.

Now, Riot Games’ Game Design Director, Riot Mort, has previewed the upcoming patch where they will focus on balancing the game even more.

“12.7, a majority of the focus is going to be on continuing to refine the augments. Their distribution rules, their balance, etc.,” Riot Mort previously said.

Here’s everything you need to know about TFT patch 12.7 notes.

TFT Set 6 was one of the best, if not the best, updates in TFT history. The introduction of Augments and new traits attracted not only new players but also brought back old players into the game. And to make things even more interesting, Riot even released the biggest mid-set update, Set 6.5, adding more than 20 new units and 80 new augments.

Moreover, to keep players updated, earlier this year, Riot also teased some of their plans for the upcoming Set 7.

As per Riot, TFT Set 7 will take place in the “dragon realms,” where different clans compete for power.

“We’ll be bringing learning from each TFT set into this one [Set 7], with a mechanic that builds upon the communities’ favorite, Hextech Augments, to bring a similar level of replayability and strategy in a world of dragons,” Riot Craftbrew previously said.

Now, as we are getting closer and closer to one of the most hyped sets of the year, Set 7, there’ve already been some leaks that reveal the upcoming units, traits, and more.

TFT Set 7 Armory

Riot Games’ game design director Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer has recently teased on his stream that they are planning to bring back the Armory mechanic in TFT Set 7.

“The thing we are working on for Set 7, I think, will make a lot of people who miss Armory happy,” Riot Mortdog said. “And I also think it will do it in a healthier and more interesting way.”

TFT Set 7

Although there’s no leak on when the TFT Set 7 will release specifically, Riot previously said that TFT Set 7 is scheduled to come out in Summer 2022.

After set 6’s massive success, Riot recently released the biggest mid-set, Set 6.5 Gizmos & Gadgets: Neon Nights, update in TFT history. The mid-set featured more than 20 new units and 80 new Hextech Augments.

Though the mid-set brought so many new things, top streamers like k3soju expressed their frustrations complaining about the Champion and Augment balance. Teamfight Tactics’ Lead Designer Riot Mort, however, did acknowledge some of the issues and ensured fix in the 12.4B patch and patch 12.5.

TFT 12.4 B-patch already went live nerfing champions like Silco, Renata, Irelia, Sivir, Sejuani, Zac, etc. Moreover, Hextech and Innovator traits also received significant nerfs.

On top of that, Riot Mort has also previewed the upcoming patch 12.5, where they will focus on balancing the game even more.

“Because we can’t hit everything in a B-patch, we wanted to give you a preview of things we’ll be hitting for 12.5,” Riot Mort said. “This is what is on our radar currently and hopefully shows where the focus will be.”
