On Monday night, Teamfight Tactics’ Lead Designer, Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer, gave the auto-chess community a look at what they can expect in the upcoming 10.17 patch. Set to go live on Wednesday, several small adjustments to numbers will be rolled out and the team feels confident in the current state of the meta ahead of the launch of Set 4 in September.
Posted on his official YouTube channel, Mortimer dissected what is and does not work and why certain changes were made.
