With a number of system changes scheduled to take place within the 10.24 update at the end of November, the TFT team focused on traits and champion adjustments for 10.23, which will go live Nov. 11. Following two bumpy updates, 10.21 and 10.22, the goal behind TFT Patch 10.23 was to provide lesser comps with a chance to have an impact while providing answers to powerful champions like Ahri and Talon. 

Traits

Teamfight Tactics Kalista

A buff was applied to Dazzler in 10.22, in which two Dazzler was “overshot,” according to Statikk. Cultist is also getting another rework, strengthening it at nine with crowd control for eight seconds while reducing power levels at six. Other traits adjusted were Divine (buffed), Hunter (nerfed), Keeper (buffed), Fortune (extended loss-streak rewards). 

Cultist

  • Mana: 50/150 adjusted to 75/150.

  • Duration of Divine adjusted from 4/6/9/13 to 3/6/9/15 seconds. 

Hunter

  • Attack damage bonus damage reduced at all scales from 150/175/200/225 to 125/150/175/200 percent.

Fortune

  • Loss-streak “unique” rewards added at 10, 11, and 12 losses.

Keeper

  • Rework to shield duration increasing from eight seconds to 8/10/14 seconds, scaling.  
  • Shield amount slightly adjusted from 175/250/400 to 175/250/350.

Champions

Teamfight Tactics Ahri

No one-cost champions are expected to receive adjustments in the upcoming TFT 10.23 patch. But champions like Aphelios and Xin Zhao are getting reworked. 

Aphelios

  • Turrets no longer trigger on-attack effects.
  • Turrets no longer grant mana, but will still trigger on-hit effects. 
  • Mana adjusted from 90/180 to 40/80. 
  • Attack speed changed from 0.7 to 0.75. 

Xin Zhao

  • New spell: Xin Zhao sweeps around him dealing 300/325/350 percent of his AD to nearby enemies and gains 50/60/75 Armor and MR for the rest of combat. 
  • Mana adjusted from 0/30 to 40/80.
  • A bug was fixed that prevented Xin Zhao from applying a critical strike. 

Other champions like Ahri and Talon received slight nerfs, providing other comps a chance to counter their powerful strikes. And several five-cost units were improved upon, providing various options during the late-game stages. 

Two-cost

  • Kennen armor Increased from 20 to 30. MR increased from 20 to 30. Spell damage reduced at three-star to 1200. 

Four-cost

  • Ahri spell was adjusted to a channel that can be interrupted, causing her to release early with reduced power and smaller impact size. Spell damage increased from 475/675/3000 to 500/700/3000.
