Patch 14.16 is getting a B-patch in Teamfight Tactics after several reroll comps with Ahri and hero augments began to completely overwhelm the meta. Teamfight Tactics set 12 has gone through a bit of a rough patch when it comes to the meta.
After being released to the live servers, an unintentional feature with Syndra meant that she skyrocketed to being the most powerful unit by far. Now after just one patch , the devs have already run into another balancing challenge, with Ahri reroll and hero augments swiftly taking the top spot. With just how powerful some of the new comps are, the devs are putting through a B-patch to cut their power so other strategies can thrive.
As announced by game design director Mortdog on Twitter, the B-patch will go live at 12PM PT on August 20 2024. The patch mainly aims to take power from units like Ahri, Fiora, and Nasus, whilst nerfing some overperforming augments too. 14.
16B will go live at noon tomorrow. To give you time to prepare, here are the locked changes you can expect, with nerfs to the top stuff. https://t.

Similarly, Lillia and Rumble have had their hero augments nerfed, both of which made them far stronger than usual. Pyro found a lot of success as a trait thanks to Smolder and a spatula, which ended up being an incredibly powerful late-game board.
Both Vanguard and Portal are also being nerfed as well, which will further affect reroll comps..
