TFT patch 14.20 is coming bundled with quality of life changes players have been waiting years for, with some small yet meaningful changes coming to the way the game is played. That said, a ton of traits, units, augments, and charms are getting changed as well.

TFT set 12 has been generally well received, with the addition of charms really mixing up gameplay and adding some new elements. However, that doesn’t mean the devs have stopped working on older systems that have been in need of change for a while.

The biggest of patch 14.20’s changes is that starring up is now instant, meaning that players won’t get cut off from getting that big 3 star unit in the field because they had to wait for the animation to play.

Here are the full TFT patch 14.20 notes:
