Riot Games is changing the design of Teamfight Tactics Artifact items, according to game design director Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer in a Twitter post on April 2, creating “wild possibilities” during games.
Items in TFT are essential to gameplay and were adjusted during Set 9.5 by splitting them into three categories: Core, Support, and Artifact. Set 10 completed the changes to Core and Support, providing flexibility when equipping a TFT champion. Patch 14.9 will bring about more changes, but this time to Artifact items, increasing the possibilities of high-roll style gameplay by designing them “to be much more unique and open up some wild possibilities,” according to Mortdog.
