TFT 6.5 Worlds Patch 12.7: Full notes and updates

Riot Games is preparing the Gizmos and Gadgets World Championship meta via a large number of Teamfight Tactics Hextech Augments balance changes, along with around a dozen nerfs and buffs applied to traits and Set 6.5 champions in Patch 12.7.

Hextech Augment balance changes

Players have been calling for the TFT team to adjust Hextech Augments that fail to have an impact on a game during mid and late-game stages. Many of these have been removed from Stage 3-3 or 4-6, or have been completely removed from Set 6.5 altogether.

Trait balance changes

Only three TFT Set 6.5 traits are getting adjusted within Patch 12.7. The buff to four Scholar has potential, creating flexibility around champions like Renata Glasc or Viktor during the late game stages. Yordles will also see a buff.

Champion balance changes

A majority of the Set 6.5 champion balance changes are buffs, as opposed to the regular flow of nerfs that have taken place within recent updates. A bug affecting Ashe’s mana has been fixed, with it now at 30/60. Tryndamere is slated for a base damage buff. Zeri is getting more attack speed, allowing for a variation of item builds, and Seraphine’s mana will get buffed.
