TFT patch 12.14 notes – AD nerfs completely upend scaling

TFT patch 12.14 is a heavy hitter if you're a fan of Teamfight Tactic's AD champions, but on the flip side it's finally nerfing Nami's healing

As League of Legends‘ autobattler, Teamfight Tactics, continues to grow in popularity, TFT patch 12.14 brings down the nerf hammer on AD champions, as well as finally taking enchanter behemoth Nami down a few pegs.

With Teamfight Tactics Set 7 Dragonlands in full swing, there are a whole slew of new features for players to get their heads around – and some adorable new Little Legends, of course (including Dragonmancer Yasuo).

TFT patch 12.14, however, is set to shake things up yet again, slashing AD scaling across all champions in an attempt to divert power back into character abilities and spells.

Riot says that the AD scaling nerf has had a big impact on Astral comps, and so to make up for that, it’s added a fun new buff to Astral 9 that “relies on the new James Webb images to discover more prizes from the stars.”

Aurelion Sol and Shyvana will also be going under the knife to change up their kits a little, and the omnipresent and ever-dominant Nami is taking a few much-needed nerfs to her healing abilities.

Looking for a rundown of everything we know about TFT Patch 12.14? You’re in luck; we’ve got all of the most up to date info right here.

TFT patch 12.14 slashes AD Scaling

In an attempt to rebalance Three Star AD champions to stop them overtaking the game, Riot have made some major adjustments to AD scaling.

AD Scaling has been dropped from 80% to 50% per Star Level, hitting a whole bunch of champions. While lead designer Mortdog hopes that players “might not even notice [the changes] if we’ve done our jobs right,” there’s a lot to take in.

The in-game meta will no doubt undergo some changes, but we’ll have to wait and see how this major update pans out.

Nami nerfs

Mortdog notes that Nami “has been a problem” throughout Set 7,  and as a result the queen of the oceans has received some much-needed nerfs to her healing abilities.

Initially scaling 275 / 300 / 375, her healing has been cut down to 175 / 200 / 225, while her spell damage has received a slight buff. This represents a shift from the “healing-focused identity” Riot initially had in mind.
