As part of the end-of-cycle changes for Set 4.5, and with Patch 11.6 being chosen for the Fates World Championship, part of the expected changes coming in the Teamfight Tactics Fates 11.7 patch is being revealed.
This patch, in the words of Stephen "Mortdog" Mortimer, one of the main designers of TFT, will be focused on increasing the options in terms of compositions and victory conditions, compared to the current state of the metagame focused on stabilizing the best options for the competitive scene.
