TFT 13.3 Patch Notes

Date:

With patches every couple of weeks, TFT players need to make sure that they are keeping up with all of the changes. Some are extremely important and can change the Meta immensely, while others likely won’t. In this case, the TFT 13.3 Patch Notes will be a much bigger patch for the game. It is important for players to stay up to date on what changes are coming and how they could affect them. With that, here are the TFT Patch 13.3 Notes.

Major Hero Augment Changes

TL;DR: We are cutting down on variance to create more fun moments and autonomy around Hero Augment selection. 

Monsters Attack! has a lot of variance, factors requiring you to play differently each game. Big brained Tacticians (that’s you btw) have to play around uncontrolled item drops, shop offerings, regular Augment offerings, and the boards of seven other players. That’s a lot to take into account when strategically assembling your team, and when we added Hero Augments into the fold, most of our players thought that this level of variability was too much to play around. 

Why four? We went with four because it all but guarantees you an Augment that you CAN play into your comp successfully (and also WANT to play with your comp). The goals of this change

are to avoid feelsbad moments of getting Hero Augments that don’t make sense in your comp, AND unfun moments for players with limited time who really want to play Augments they enjoy. Of course, we will be keeping a close eye on feedback and data from this change, and can change it again if it’s the right call. 

What about forcing Augments?With 13.1 C being our most balanced patch of Monsters Attack!, it gave us a moment to deliver this high impact and much sought after change. With four Hero Augment rerolls, players can force desired Hero Augments more easily—you’ll see a total of 15 unique Hero Augments if you use each reroll. This is where balancing Hero Augments is even more important. We know this, and have taken great care in balancing these Augments with 13.1, but also in this patch. 

Lastly, we hope you have fun choosing your favorite Hero to lead your squad to victory, as it not only fulfills the Tactician fantasy of assembling your super team, but it also will allow you to experience the highs of your favorite Augments more often. 

● You now have 4 Hero Augment Rerolls if a Hero Augment appears. These are separate from your 1 Normal Augment Reroll. 

● Hero Augment Rerolls will always generate a new selection of unique Hero Augments. In other words, there’ll be no repeats.
