TFT patch 14.17 highlights
In terms of the most significant changes, Arcana, Chrono, and Faerie received buffs and adjustments to enhance their effectiveness. Meanwhile, Pyro, and Sugarcraft were tweaked to balance their power.
A slew of silver, gold, and prismatic augments were updated as well. While the most high-performing silver augments got nerfed, Ascension in the gold rarity improved its early-game performance, while Flexible's health bonus got reduced to balance its power. Dragon's Spirit got reworked for clarity, and Metabolic Accelerator got removed from the game.
As for prismatic augments, Anger Issues received more armor and MR to help frontlines survive longer. Additionally, other underperforming Augments were buffed to improve their effectiveness.
The TFT patch notes also acknowledged that core items were providing too much scaling power for champions. Therefore, the update lowered the base stats of stronger items.
Other patch notes include updates to radiant items, artifacts, support items, charms, plus a bunch of small changes. Riot Games' Stephen "Mortdog" Mortimer posted a YouTube video to give players a rundown of the changes as well.
