The Teamfight Tactics developers are going easy on the balance changes in Patch 11.6 leading up to the Set 4.5 Fates: Festival of Beasts World Championship in April.
The nerfs and buffs coming to the game on Wednesday, March 17 cater to the competitive meta, tweaking and balancing out a few minor abnormalities.
Champions like Olaf, who stood out in the Regional Finals last weekend, and Talon, who trailed behind, have been targeted in the patch, along with various items like Eternal Winter, Ornn’s best Artifact, and Last Whisper.
TFT game designer Riot Kent weighed in on the update in a recent patch rundown. “Everything seems to be in a good spot,” he said. “[We’re] just making small changes to continue to open up more paths in an already diverse meta.”
Here are the full notes and updates for TFT Patch 11.6.
