Following the complete domination of Dark Stars, the Convergence will hopefully be saved by this new patch that should shake the meta of Teamfight Tactics upside down.
With the new feature allowing to see in-game recipes as well as the new "Salvage World" Galaxy, Patch 10.16 brings quite a lot of balance changes, including a buff fro Chronos, Rebels, and Space Pirates — and the long-awaited nerf of Vanguards.
Systems
Galaxies
- New Galaxy: Salvage World - When you sell a champion, any completed items they were holding are broken down into their components.
- Removed Galaxy: Star Cluster
Quality of Life
- In-game item recipes are here!
- Right-click any item component to see what it can build into. (If you’re playing on mobile, simply tap it.)
- Full items you can currently build are highlighted.
- Recipes now appear in the tooltips for completed items.
