We’ll bring you the complete details of the Patch 14.22 updates, which just recently went live on 6th November, 11 AM PT.
Choncc’s Treasure Makes a Comeback
The return of the Choncc’s Treasure gamemode is one of the most exciting updates brought by Patch 14.22. In this time-limited comeback, players get increased loot drops and power levels as well as the chance to field 3-star 5-cost units. Players can enjoy these from the 6th of November until the 19th.
However, there were also several changes made to balance this sweet treat out. The Major Polymorph charm is now disabled and the Sugarcraft sugar values per item component have been adjusted from 3/4/6/10 to 2/3/5/10.
Team Planner Gets Major Upgrades
The most notable quality-of-life improvement in TFT Patch 14.22 is the extensive update to Team Planner:
Through copy-paste Team Codes, players can now share their tried and true team compositions with their friends and try out builds from their favorite streamers. The new Multi-teams feature also allows players to save up to 20 different team compositions now. Meanwhile, the improved unit naming system will make it simpler to identify between similar looking champions in your comps.
