Teamfight Tactics patch 10.9 notes

Welcome back from the future Chrono players,

This week it's patch 10.9 and that means new Galaxies, Trait and Champion adjustments, item system changes, and last but not least new Odyssey themed Arenas! In Champion Balance, we're making 3-Star Tier 1 Champions a little easier to get, and a little more worth the chase. We hope this will open up even more interesting team options. We're also lowering the power of the larger vertical traits, and buffing some of the smaller supplemental traits again with the goal of opening up more interesting build paths. Perhaps the most interesting change is a reimagining of Chrono. The trait will now always give 15% bonus attack speed every few seconds with the first first tick coming at the start of combat. Now, adding more Chrono Champions will increase how often your champions get bonus attack speed, rather than how much.

Take this portal if you're looking for League's patch notes!

Let's get into it!
