Teamfight Tactics: Runeterra Reforged

runeterra-reforged-background.pngTeamfight Tactics returns to its humble roots with its newest set, Runeterra Reforged!

Elemental brawls, space battles, kaiju combat… Our champions have seen it all! And while this new set is a return to the world that inspired it all, we're making use of all the lessons we've learned along the way. Prepare to create your comp with unprecedented control as you navigate brand new world-altering effects courtesy of Legends and Region Portals!

A new set means new mechanics (and a few old ones!), traits, tacticians, and more, so read on for all the juicy details. You'll be able to return to Runeterra from June 14, 2023 at 11:00AM PST to September 12, 2023 at 11:59PM local time.*

*Dates and times are subject to change. Always check the in-game schedule for the most accurate information.

Runeterra Reforged Passes

As always, the best way to experience TFT's latest set is by leveling up your pass and earning rewards! Everyone gets the free Runeterra Reforged Pass automatically on day one of the new set, and you can upgrade to the premium Runeterra Reforged Pass+ for even more cool stuff whenever you want.

Take a look at the Pass+ Content section below to see some of the things you can unlock with the premium pass, or gather intel for your super squad with our Runeterra Reforged Pass FAQ to learn how the passes work.

What's so Reforged about this Runeterra?

While you'll get your usual new batch of champs, traits, and origins, the real fun comes from choosing your Runeterran travel companion and itinerary for each match with Legends and Region Portals!

Legends

Runeterra Reforged marks the first time you'll be making gameplay choices before even entering the queue.

Once you're in the lobby, you'll see a new button prompting you to pick a Legend. Each Legend encourages a specific playstyle by guaranteeing one augment from preset lists at stages 2-1, 3-2, and 4-2. The other two augments at each of these stages will still be totally random, but at least now you'll have a higher chance of getting the critical pick that your whole battle plan revolves around!

You can also change your Legend whenever you like outside of the game, so keep experimenting to find the perfect complement to your big-brain strats. If you opt not to pick a Legend at all, you'll be left with Poro, the default Legend, leaving your augments untouched.

Your opponents' Legends will be visible once the game starts, giving you clues about their desired comp before they even snag their first champion. 

Finally, Legends will be available in all games modes except for Hyper Roll, which is just too li'l to fit all these giant characters.

Region Portals

At your first carousel, three portals leading to different Runeterran regions will appear at the center of the map. Every region has a few different possible portals, each offering a new twist on the coming match. These effects vary a lot! For example, one yordle portal (heh) will replace the mobs of every PvE round with scuttle crabs that give extra loot, while one Targonian portal will give all players a Tactician's Crown on certain stages. That's why it's extra important to hover over your potential picks to know what you might be getting into!

To vote on a region, walk your tactician into your chosen portal. If you don't pick a region, then only the remaining players' votes will be considered. After a set amount of time or once all votes are cast, a region will be picked at random from the chosen portals, at which point everybody will hop into the same portal, be given a random 1-cost to start with, and begin the match in earnest.

Ranked Info

A new set means a new Ranked climb, with a reset and rewards to boot!

Ranked Reset

The time has finally come for our hard-won ranks to drop down, all so we can hard-win them all over again! Why, you ask? Well, we know that for a lot of you, climbing that ladder is the most exciting part of the game. We want to give everyone a fresh ranked experience with each new set, and a hard reset will allow for just that!

So, what does that mean for your rank from Glitched Out? 

Standard

If you climbed all the way to Master or above, you’ll start at Bronze IV. If you hit Diamond I, you’ll start your climb from Iron I. Everyone else is starting at Iron II.

Hyper Roll

So what about Hyper Roll? This one’s easy: Everyone, regardless of placement in the last set, is starting at Gray Tier (500).

Double Up

Much like Hyper Roll, everyone starts out at the same place regardless of where they placed in the last set. For Double Up, everyone starts at Iron II.

Provisional Games

After the set kicks off, everybody who plays ranked will start with five provisional placement games. During those games, you won’t lose any LP for finishing in the bottom 4, and you’ll earn extra LP for placing in the top 4—or top 2 for Double Up.

Ranked Rewards

Whew! Those monsters and all their glitches almost got us, but it looks like Runeterra came to the rescue just in time! Still, you should get something for your trouble… How about some ranked rewards, which will be distributed throughout the release of Runeterra Reforged?

Sounds good? Great! Now let's take a look at what you'll get!

Gold+

Before anything else we want to reward everybody who hit gold or higher! If you accomplished this feat in just one part of the set, you'll get Victorious Flutterbug (left!). But getting gold in BOTH parts?! That's a Triumphant Flutterbug (right!) level achievement!

victorious-trumphant-flutterbug.png

Standard Ranked

Place Gold or higher in Runeterra Reforged: Glitched Out? Lord over your foes with an emote representing your rank!

glitched-out-ranked-rewards.png

Hyper Roll

Achieving Green, Blue, Purple, or Hyper tier while Hyper Rolling through Glitched out may not be a sure thing, but with this emote, it'll at least be a SHORK thing!

hyper-roll-ranked-rewards.png

Double Up!

Teamwork makes the dream work—especially if that dream is claiming ranked rewards in Double Up! Reach Gold tier or higher in Double Up to show off your synergy with this pair of classy crustaceans!

But before we get into the deets, let's talk about what Treasure Realms will be replacing: eggs!

Eggs: SCRAMBLED

If you're looking to make a Treasure Realmslette, you gotta crack a few eggs. Or all of them, as it turns out!

Treasure Realms is replacing Store-bought eggs as a way of pursuing rare content while filling out your roster with tacticians new and old. Eggs might make appearances in other situations (like LoL event shops), but they can't be purchased directly for the foreseeable future.

That said, any eggs you still have in your inventory are totally safe and should function exactly as before!

Chibi Little Devil Teemo

Revel in Teemo's inherent evil with Chibi Little Devil Teemo, who comes with his very own diabolical finisher!

Chibi Little Devil Teemo is included in the current Treasure Realms star content with Runeterra Reforged's release, but keep an eye on Treasure Realms to see when he'll descend once more into Runeterra's darkest pits.
