TFT Magic n' Mayhem Patch 14.16

By: Published:

Magic n' Mayhem has received its first update! Read on to learn about all the changes that have gone live on Wednesday in Teamfight Tactics, including four new charms, and dozens of Augment adjustments!

In a Nutshell ‎

As expected when a new set rolls into town, this very first Magic n' Mayhem Patch is a big one! For the most part, this patch is very buff-oriented, with several traits getting large buffs, as well as many Charms and Augments. Four new Charms have been added as well!

The nerfs target a few over-performing 2-cost units, including Syndra, Kog'Maw, and Kassadin. Five items have received changes in this patch, and all of them have been nerfs as well.

The most exciting changes likely concern trait Augments like Witchy Wallop, High Horsepower, and Molten Caramel. Poppy, Lillia, and Rumble, respectively, all look a lot more tantalising now. Try out one of these units in the next couple of weeks and see if the buffs are as good as they sound on paper, if you can get your hands on any of these Augments!

Rotating Shop Infographic ‎

Several newcomers arrive to the Rotating Shop. The two most exciting additions are Chibi Space Groove Blitzcrank and Chibi Prestige Cafe Cuties Gwen. Both can be purchased from the Mythic section of the Rotating Shop for 10 Mythic Medallions. You can also acquire the Chibi Space Groove Blitzcrank by opening Treasure Bounties in the Treasure Realms tab under TFT. Each Bounty requires 50 Treasure Tokens to open, which will run you 195 RP each time. Both Chibis will stick around for another three weeks.

Also in Treasure Realms, you can pull the mythical Chibi Battle Bunny Miss Fortune or the Le Bunny Bonbon Bistro arena. These two you can purchase in the Mythic Rotating Shop, also for 10 Mythic Medallions. As a reminder, you can only acquire Mythic Medallions by opening Treasure Bounties.

Systems ‎

Golems

Golems have proven to be a touch too powerful, so they've been nerfed across the board. Golems now have 55 AD (down from 65), 550 Health (down from 600), and deal less damage at earlier stages. A Golem's Ability damage is now 300/480/750% AP, down from 335/500/750% AP.
