Several comps in TFT, from Astro Sniper and six Sorcerer to Vanguard Mystic, have seen a lot of success since the mid-season release. A hotfix was applied on June 12, reducing Protector Shield and applying a one-second lockout to Aurelion Sol. 

  • Protector Shield: 30/40/55 percent to 30/40/50 percent
  • Spell Damage: 80/150/750 adjusted to 110/150/750
  • Mana Drain: 10/25/50 adjusted to 15/25/50

With the 10.13 update a week away, there’s a number of tweaks being applied on the PBE that may carry over into the next patch. Battlecast has been slightly underperforming while Master Yi has been carrying Blademaster to new heights, according to TFT designer Mortdog

Several minor changes are being tested on the PBE that will give Battlecast a buff in the early game, but not in the late game.

Trait 10.13 adjustments

Dark Star might get a much-needed boost and Battlecast may receive early-game buffs with two and four units. Blaster is also on the docket for a slight buff while Mystic is seeing its magic resistance lowered just a tad.

Infiltrator

  • Four unit bonuses with attack speed increased from 70 percent to 80 percent.

Battlecast

  • Healing or damage increased from 70 to 75 with two units.

  • AD and Spell Power increased from 24 to 28 with six units.
  • AD and Spell Power increased from 32 to 38 with eight units.

TFT champion 10.13 changes

Master Yi may get slightly nerfed but not enough to drop the six Blademaster comp from the A-tier. And expect to see adjustments to stuns via Nautilus and Gnar, along with a couple of tweaks to Cassiopeia.

Illaoi

  • Armor and MR (magic resistance) steal may increase from 20/30/50 to 30/40/60.

  • Stun duration reduced from 3/3.5/4 to 3/3/5.

Master Yi

  • True damage three-star reduced from 75/100/200 to 75/100/175
