A new patch came through in Teamfight Tactics (TFT). Riot Games released the latest TFT 14.21 patch that brings adjustments to some of your favorite champions, items, and augments. Moreover, the update will also remove some familiar features, such as the Treasure Golems Portal. This patch serves as the conclusion to the Dawn of Heroes Revival based on their released guide. With that, let’s dive into the crucial changes you’ll be facing in TFT.
Base Chibis Moving to Rotating Shop
Sad news ahead! The patch 14.21 will no longer have Base Chibis available for direct purchase in the League of Legends Store. This major system change came in after data revealed that over 99% of players preferred to access the items through the Rotating Shop. With this, it will streamline the shopping experience for TFT-only players. Above that, it will also help to better align the Chibi quality cosmetics with the premium Little Legends offerings.
Treasure Golems Portal is Gone
Charming yet unnoticeable. Unfortunately, among the significant changes in the latest update is the removal of the Treasure Golems Portal. The decision to set aside the feature came as it was underutilized by TFT players. Due to this, Riot Games will buff the Unstable Treasure Chest to grant the players 4 items instead of 3. This serves as compensation for their removal decision.
Major Trait Adjustments
Definitely, new updates bring major adjustments to some of your used traits to bring balance in the game. In TFT patch 14.21, here are the traits that received significant changes:

The adjustments encourage players to transition to Xerath as their late-game High Arcana.
Eldritch
Received significant buffs to summon ability duration (increased to 8 seconds) and attack speed bonus (now 60% at 7 Eldritch).
Honeymancy
Damage output increased to 7/13/20% and damage received adjusted to 3/5/10%.
Chrono

Unit Balance Changes
Aside from the trait adjustments, there are also key unit changes included in the patch notes. With this, players will have to make some necessary adjustments to their item builds and compositions. Here are the champions with key changes for patch 14.21:

Base HP reduced to 700 to address tankiness concerns.
