Patch 9.14 is going to be a massive Patch for TFT. There are a lot of quality of life changes for items, champions and overall player experience. With that, a new champion is also arriving in Twisted Fate. For more, here are the Patch notes.
“9.14 also marks the first patch with official TFT patch notes! From now on, you can expect TFT patch notes almost every week on their own separate page” -Riot
Twisted Fate joins the Crew
TF is being added to the game and he will be in his Cutpurse Skin to match with Graves. This helps him fit in with his Origin as a Pirate and he will have a class as a Sorcerer. He is a two cost and his ability will be “Pick A Card”. This means he will throw either a Blue Card for more mana in an area, a Red Card for AOE Damage or a Yellow Card for a stun. It has a relatively quick charge so that it is used regularly.
He should make Pirates and Sorcerers a lot stronger early game. Mostly due to his ability to make it possible to get the three Pirates very early on while also allowing for three or six Sorcerer to come about much earlier in the game.
Ranked Changes
- Ranked has arrived with 9.14
- Finishing in the top 4 will gain players positive LP, finishing in the bottom 4 will lose it.

Champion Changes
- TF has been added.
- Buffs to 3 cost champions
