TFT patch 14.5 notes and details: Mortdog returns!

TFT patch 14.5 arrives on May 28.

In just a few days, Teamfight Tactics (TFT) update 14.5 will be released, and Riot Games’ team member Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer has given the community an overview of what to expect in this update.

TFT patch 14.5 notes

In Mortdog’s most recent summary, he discussed the upcoming TFT update version 14.5. To start off, he mentioned that currently, the game is in a favorable position regarding the meta. As such, this patch is intended to be relatively minor when it comes to champion and trait balance adjustments. However, there are significant changes planned for various items in the game.

In his conversation, Mortdog covered modifications to Striker’s Flail, Chainstriker, Guinsoo’s Rageblade, and Guinsoo’s Reckoning, along with changes to Spirit Visage, More-Spirit Visage, Kraken’s Fury, Torrential Maelstrom, Void Staff, Icathia’s Revenge, Sterak’s Gage, and Sterak’s Megashield.

Or in a shorter form: Mortdog addressed updates for several items like Striker’s Flail, Chainstriker, Guinsoo’s Rageblade, and Guinsoo’s Reckoning, Spirit Visage, More-Spirit Visage, Kraken’s Fury, Torrential Maelstrom, Void Staff, Icathia’s Revenge, Sterak’s Gage, and Sterak’s Megashield.

From my gaming perspective, I reviewed the tweaks on The Indomitable, Flickerblade, Statikk Shiv, and Titanic Hydra in our latest update. We also said goodbye to Anima Visage and Spite, boosted the proc damage for Lich Bane, and beefed up Mogul’s Mail and Wit’s End.

The TFT 14.5 overview subsequently delved into modifications concerning encounters, traits, champions, augmentations, and glitches resolution. The following sections in this patch summary may vary slightly from earlier expectations derived from the public beta environment (PBE).

After giving a rundown of TFT Patch 14.5, it went on to discuss changes related to battles, character traits, champions, power-ups, and bug corrections. The remaining sections in this summary might differ somewhat from earlier guesses based on the public beta environment (PBE).

The return of Mortdog’s patch rundowns

On May 25th, Mortdog resumed his TFT patch analyses following a brief hiatus. Unfortunately, in his most recent YouTube video and live stream on Twitch, he admitted that he didn’t prepare a rundown for update 14.4.

He mentioned that they had overlooked the previous update summary, but now they were providing another one. This time it’s about Patch 14.5.

During a live broadcast on April 28, Mortdog shared his plans to take a break from providing patch rundowns, managing social media, and streaming for a while. He expressed the difficulty of being under constant scrutiny and receiving a lot of player criticism. Since then, notable members of the TFT community like Dan “Frodan” Chou, FenrirButGaming, and Kitkatman111 have taken over in his absence.

After May 25th, Mortdog revisited TFT Patch 14.5, and viewers on his YouTube video were thrilled with the discussion. One viewer, for instance, commended Mortdog’s analysis, stating that in-depth patch breakdowns are hands down the best aspect of TFT.

Lionheartzcs2 mentioned that the standout feature of TFT (Teamfight Tactics) is its detailed explanations of patches. He had been apprehensive about diving into item reworks without prior knowledge, but finds Mortdog’s explanations so clear and comprehensive that it becomes effortless to grasp what the team is doing and why.
