Riot Games adds a whole new set, plus balance changes, new champions, and quality of life improvements.
The Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) has not stopped the release of patch 10.6 of TFT, also known as TeamFight Tactics or Master Tactics in Spanish. The new update introduces a new set (Galaxies) within an unprecedented qualifying season, plus champions debuting alongside new items and traits. They also include mini-legends and arenas never seen before. Riot Games, which devises a strategy to reinforce multiplayer experiences, unveils changes to its systems, such as login and item system.
Qualifiers
- The Galaxies qualifying season will start immediately with the release of this version.
- There will no longer be a decline due to inactivity of qualifiers in ranks below Master.
- You cannot descend due to inactivity if you are already in Master. We hope you keep trying to be among the best, but we don't want TFT to feel like a daily obligation with a big penalty included.
System

- The Galaxy mechanics will be released with version 10.7.
