A total of 21 champions have been tweaked on Teamfight Tactics‘ PBE, along with six traits, buffing three-star stats while also improving max-unit traits.

With a push toward buffing three-star champion stats, it seems the design team is testing alternative late-game comp choices. And in addition to individual champion buffs, certain traits were also buffed for the late-game, like Rebel and Infiltrator. It’s likely that a bunch of these changes won’t stick, but the PBE should contain some interesting comp builds leading up to TFT Patch 10.16. 

Other changes that may stick around include an overall buff to the Battlecast trait at 4/6/8 and a reduction in healing for two-unit Celestrial. From a damage increase to shield buffs, here’s every change being tested on the PBE following TFT Patch 10.15. 

Traits

Battlecast changes that have increased at 4/6/8 are likely the most important tweak being tested. The other trait adjustments were made to max-units, such as six Infiltrator, which requires a spatula to pull off, and nine Rebel. 

Infiltrator

  • Six unit attack speed increased from 120 percent to 150 percent

  • Four unit healing or damage increased from 180 to 200
