Riot removes Econ traits from TFT Set 12, shifting strategies to Augments
Econ strategies in Teamfight Tactics are evolving through Set 12, shifting from a specific economy trait like Fortune to high-stakes Augments in Magic n’ Mayhem.
Over the past few sets, Econ traits in TFT have become increasingly difficult to balance. Either the power levels of payouts and champions within the trait were too high or low. The trait Fortune, for example, returned to Set 11 with high expectations but the trait failed to deliver what players expected from an Econ trait. In response, devs are trying an alternative Econ strategy in Set 12 Magic n’ Mayhem through five high-stakes Augments.
