Into The Arcane is receiving its third update! Read on to learn about all the changes that are going live on Wednesday in Teamfight Tactics.
In a Nutshell
After a leeengthy winter holiday break, a new update has finally hit both League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics. One small change right off the bat is that, as you can see, the naming convention has been changed for TFT patches! Instead of matching the League of Legends patch name, TFT now has its own. This will be Patch 13.3, signifying it's the third patch of the 13th Set!
So what changes have been added in this new Patch 13.3? It's a fairly small patch even after such a long break! The biggest changes have been applied to Augments of all tiers. Almost all of the changes have been buffs, though a few Augments, such as Contested and Lone Hero, have been disabled.
Traits as a whole have been largely unaffected, except for Chem Baron. This Trait has been changed in every single patch and may be getting more treatment as the set progresses. These fortune-mechanic traits are always troublesome. This time, the cash values of the cashouts at 400 and 500 have been nerfed, as have all of the Chem items.

System Changes
Opening Encounters
A tiny quality of life change has been applied to the Opening Encounters. Their duration has now been lowered, so everyone can get to the strategizing all the sooner.
Carousel
Another small quality of life change will affect the Stage 3 Carousel. Now, there will be a copy of every single item component on this carousel, provided there are no random Spatulas or Frying Pans.
