Patch 13.14 contains multiple system changes, from Mana Reave and strongest unit adjustments to PvE rounds and a Training Dummy buff.

Elder Dragon and PvE round changes

Players will notice that the Elder Dragon at Stage 5-7 is slightly harder to take down, due to the Elder Dragon’s health increasing from 10,000 to 12,000. The change will shorten the time players have to pivot and make adjustments heading into Stage Six.

Other PvE rounds with Krugs, Wolves, and Raptors will always drop at least two Orbs, starting in TFT Set Nine Patch 13.14.

Strongest unit changes

The criteria used to identify the strongest unit on the battlefield was adjusted to help players identify and build around their strongest unit.

The strongest unit is the champion with the most items.
If there is a tie between two units, the champion most recently fielded on the battlefield becomes the strongest unit.

Training Dummy buff

Training Dummy is another system change in Patch 13.14, gaining 50 attack damage. The change benefits players who give a Training Dummy the Deadeye or Rogue trait in conjunction with the Prismatic Augment Wandering Trainer can take advantage of the AD.

The Deadeye trait with Wandering Trainer can have the Training Dummy proc and eliminate enemies while the Rogue trait can have the Training Dummy apply bleed damage. Players can check the Training Dummies stats through the combat tracker.

Portal Patch 13.14 changes

Both Yuumi’s Zoom Zone and Petricite Forest are getting reworked in Patch 13.14. And the Treasure Dragon reroll cost in Warlord’s Palace was reduced from two to one.

Yuumi’s Zoom Zone: When you purchase XP, gain an additional two XP
Petricite Forest: Start a game with three Component Anvils
Warlord’s Palace: Treasure Dragon reroll cost reduced to one

Mana Reave adjustments

Starting with Patch 13.14, the impact of the Mana Reave debuff will get slightly reduced. All sources that Mana Reave have been reduced from 35 to 30 percent. The change will directly affect champions like Ahri, traits like Freljord, and items like Shroud of Stillness.
