Teamfight Tactics Patch 14.4 notes: Double Up assists and minor changes

Patch 14.4 of Teamfight Tactics brings one of the smallest patches we’ve ever seen, including changes to Double Up and minor nerfs and buffs across the board.

Two weeks have passed since the last major patch in Teamfight Tactics, so here comes Patch 14.4 with a slew of changes to shift up the auto battler once more.

When is TFT Patch 14.4 going live?

Teamfight Tactics’ new patch will be released at the same time as League of Legends Patch 14.4 on Wednesday, February 21. As per usual, expect a brief period of server downtime before the patch goes live.

What’s changing in Patch 14.4?

Double Up assist armory changes

Double Up has been relatively untouched since its release. The co-op mode sees players team up to take down the other teams of 2. However, Mortdog is looking to take a swing at some of the assist armories available in the mode, addressing the power creep that has risen.

Minor nerfs and buffs

Patch 14.4 has to be one of the smallest patches in all of Teamfight Tactics history. The new patch brings very minor changes to a handful of champions, traits, and a couple of items, meaning the game is in a somewhat balanced state.
