Lanterns, a new mechanic that can drop items like item components, loaded dice, gold, and more throughout various points of the game, is also joining TFT.
Players can look forward to the new Dragonsoul, Fabled, Executioner, Slayer, Syphoner, Daredevil, and Blacksmith traits, but will also say goodbye to Dazzler, Dusk, Hunter, Moonlight, and Shade.
Here are the full notes for TFT Patch 11.2.

Ranked changes
