TFT Patch 13.8 notes

TFT Patch 13.8 will go live on March 19. It’s an important patch not just because it’s the final patch but also because TFT Set 14 will finally debut on the PBE. As for Set 13, Patch 13.8 adds a whole bunch of fun to the set, primarily featuring positive changes and buffs.

System changes

The system is being changed so now there are two different Anomaly rounds and you’ll start seeing 6-costs much more often in your games as you reach stage six.

Anomaly

Six Costs

• Increased odds of finding 6-cost units starting at level 6-1 by one percent (9-1 in Hyperroll).
