TFT Magic n' Mayhem (Patch 14.15) All New Traits Explained

Teamfight Tactics players should get ready for a magical adventure with the upcoming Magitorium update, set to launch of July 31st. TFT will welcome powerful Mages, wizards, and other magic wielders, who want to showcase their spellcraft skills. Some conjure portals, others use fiery spells, but each magical origin brings unique abilities to the Teamfight Tactics battlefield. The Magic n' Mayhem set goes live with patch 14.15 on July 31st. Let's explore the key traits and champions that will be introduced with the next update:

Witchcraft Trait (2/4/6/8)

• Champions: Poppy, Zoe, Cassiopeia, Neeko, Fiora, Morgana
• Ability: Curse enemies, reducing their health and healing the lowest-health Witch. Higher levels add more powerful curses and transformations.

Witchcraft champions can reroll for powerful effects. Morgana, for example, can summon bats that deal damage and even abduct enemies.

Portal Trait (3/6/8/10) 

• Champions: Jayce, Zoe, Galio, Kassadin, Ezreal, Ryze, Taric, Norra & Yuumi
• Ability: Summon disruptive debris and helpful antics every few seconds, with stronger effects at higher star levels. Portal units also gain a shield at the start of combat.

Portal units are great for a fast strategy. Using champions such as Ryze, Norra and Yuumi at the top end will be amazing for this build. Ryze opens more portals that attack enemies, while Norra & Yuumi launch magical balls that can hit multiple enemies when the Mage trait is active.

Dragon Trait (2/3)

• Champions: Nomsy, Shyvana, Smolder
• Ability: Burn and wound enemies, reducing their health and healing abilities. Fielding all three Dragons enhances their abilities.

TFT is making space for three dangerous dragons! Use them to cut healing and deal continuous damage. Nomsy is a powerful single-target attacker that can upgrade to an area-of-effect ability, while Smolder provides consistent damage with his fireballs.

Honeymancy (3/5/7)

• Champions: Blitzcrank, Ziggs, Kog’Maw, Nunu & Willump, Veigar
• Ability: Summon Bees that deal magic damage and transfer to other Honeymancers if their original host falls.

The Bees universe is buzzing with anticipation! Veigar's ability, King Bee’s Judgement, gains Ability Power for every Charm purchased, making him absolutely OP in dealing single-target damage.

Eldritch Trait (3/5/7/10)

• Champions: Ashe, Elise, Nilah, Syndra, Mordekaiser, Nami, Briar
• Ability: Summon ancient gods to aid your team as their combined health decreases. Summons have various abilities, including stunning enemies and chaining attacks.

What a powerful lineup! Briar is considered to be the standout champion. She can leap into groups of enemies and become stronger as her health decreases. This means she's a late-game powerhouse. The stronger your enemies get - the harder she'll hit.

Arcana Trait (2/3/4/5)

• Champions: Ahri, Hecarim, Tahm Kench, Xerath
• Ability: There are five distinct strategies available, providing different bonuses, such as Ability Power for 3-star champions or bonus health for each active trait.

Here's how Riot Games describes the champions:

Activate Ahri as your High Arcana, and your team gains Ability Power for each 3-star champion.

Hecarim grants champions holding items Damage Reduction and AD. Tahm Kench gives your team bonus Health for each active trait.

Xerath allows abilities to deal bonus true damage for each Charm purchased this game.

Lastly, when an Arcana Emblem wearer is designated as your High Arcana, your team gains Damage Amplification for each fielded champion holding a Spatula item—get ready to cook! 

Faerie Trait (2/4/6/8)

• Champions: Lillia, Seraphine, Tristana, Katarina, Kalista, Rakan, Milio
• Ability: Gain health and create powerful items that scale with trait levels.

The faerie court is making an appearance! Katarina and Kalista will get a great boost from Faerie items, with Milio providing additional support and damage.

Druid Trait: Wukong (3G)

• Champion: Wukong
• Ability: Gains bonus Armor and Magic Resist, making him a solid front-liner. His ability, Cyclone, deals physical damage and grants a shield.

Wukong might be the only druid but he is a versatile front-liner or defensive item holder, with an augment that scales his ability with Attack Damage.

Sugarcraft Trait (2/4/6)

• Champions: Soraka, Rumble, Bard, Jinx, Gwen
• Ability: Increase Ability Power and Attack Damage, collecting sugar for each item equipped and baking a cake that provides bonuses.

Sugarcraft is probably the most adorable new trait. The best thing about it is that it can be combined with Honeymancy for a powerful synergy, with champions like Jinx and Bard being the stand-outs.

Chrono Trait (2/4/6)

• Champions: Jax, Zilean, Vex, Karma, Camille
• Ability: At the start of the battle there will be a countdown, giving the TFT players bonuses when complete. Higher levels freeze enemies and provide powerful boosts.

Camille is a standout champion with her ability to dive into enemies and create a containment zone that grants damage reduction and Attack Damage.

Pyro Trait (2/3/4/5)

• Champions: Akali, Shen, Nasus, Varus
• Ability: Gain Attack Speed and execute low-health enemies. Collect cinders to boost Attack Speed further.

As the name suggests, this trait will bring along some fiery champions. They are amazing in fast-paced combat, with Varus and Nasus as key champions for dealing damage and collecting cinders.

Frost Trait (3/5/7/9) 

• Champions: Twitch, Warwick, Zilean, Hwei, Swain, Olaf, Diana
• Ability: Freeze the first enemies that die into ice soldiers, gaining Ability Power and Attack Damage.

Where there's fire, there's always ice, in the LoL universe. Diana is turning into an ice queen, who can dash into enemies and create a snowfall that deals damage and heals the team.
