The game is suitable for Ascent of the Elements with multiple changes, since boards of different sizes and much more are added.
Ascent of the Elements has arrived, but Teamfight Tactics continues to update to balance all aspects of the game. After the premiere of patch 9.22, a new system of elementary hexagons, new champions, origins, classes and skills has been incorporated. Set 2 also includes a new qualifying season, so you will have to study the strategies if you want to qualify for victory.
As noted on the website, "the number of each champion in the base has been reduced to make team compositions centered on a mandatory champion more difficult, and thus open more paths to victory." But what are all the news that comes to TFT? Here are all the patch notes.
General Game Changes
Modifications are made to adapt to Ascent of the Elements. The size of the board is changed, so optimal formations can be articulated for any situation through additional decisions and options.
- Board size: 3 lines of 7 hexagons ⇒ 4 lines of 7 hexagons.
- Player damage: 3/3/3/4/5/6 ⇒ 2/3/4/5/6/7
- The summoned units do not inflict damage on the player by themselves, but their summoner is considered alive if at least one of them survives the round.
- Probabilities of occurrence by cost level (at level 8 of mini-legend): 15/20/35/22/8 ⇒ 15/20/35/24/6
- When you choose a carousel champion, your mini-legend will no longer collide with your opponents
Changes to qualifiers
- We deactivated the qualifiers during version 9.22, and will return with 9.23.
- Being in 4th place or higher will never reduce PL. Being in 5th place or lower will never grant PL.

- All other regions: 50 Challengers, 100 Great Masters.
