Riot Games is dropping several new Teamfight Tactics traits within the upcoming Set Eight Monsters Attack!, featuring a first-time customizable trait and a trait that isn’t a trait.

Slated to release on the PBE servers on Nov. 15, TFT Set Eight will introduce a new mechanic called Hero Augments and several new traits. Unlike previous sets, there are no champions within Monsters Attack! that take up two slots on the board. The theme for Set Eight is built around heroes and villains, along with teams and vigilantes.

Not all of the Set Eight traits have been released at time of writing. Revealed by game design director Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer, and the Teamfight Tactics Twitter, here are the Set Eight TFT traits we know about so far.

Mecha:Prime Set 8 trait
Mech returns to TFT Set Eight with a new design. The trait contains five champions, with you the player choosing a designated Mecha:Prime. Upon choosing a designated Prime unit, it fuses together with the closest Mecha units to form Mecha:Prime. All health and attack damage is combined into the fused Prime unit.

Recon Set 8 trait
Recon Set Eight champions gain additional range at each breakpoint. Upon casting a spell, if there is an enemy in an adjacent Hex, the Recon unit dashes away to safety. There are four Recon champions in TFT Set Eight.

Prankster Set 8 trait
The Prankster trait in Set Eight contains three champions. Upon losing over half their health, a Prankster TFT unit will swap places with a Target Dummy. The Prankster champion that swapped will then gain a large amount of its health back.

OxForce Set 8 trait
There are six TFT Set Eight champions with the OxForce trait. All units with the OxForce trait gain attack speed upon their health decreasing. The first time an OxForce champion falls during combat, they become invulnerable for a short amount of time.

Supers Set 8 trait
The Supers trait contains three TFT Set Eight champions. Similar to Anima Squad, units with the Supers trait strike a pose. But they do it at the start of combat to grant allies bonus damage. All three-star champions on the team will boost the Supers trait bonus.

Mascot Set 8 trait
A total of six TFT Set Eight champions are in the Mascot trait. Upon getting defeated on the battlefield, Mascot units retreat to the sidelines to cheer on their team. The cheers grant allies increased health regeneration with Mascot units earning a higher bonus.

Civilian Set 8 trait
There are three Civilian Set Eight champions. When a Civilian unit is on the battlefield, allies fight harder to protect them, passively gaining mana over time.

Hacker Set 8 trait
The Hacker is a sub-trait containing three Set Eight TFT champions. Hacker units summon an “H4ckerr!m,” according to Mortdog, that takes a unit into the enemy backline. That unit is untargetable for the first few seconds of combat.

Lasercorps Set 8 trait
The Lasercorps trait is a verticle trait in TFT Set Eight, containing a total of seven champions. Each Lasercorp unit is assigned a combat drone. During basic attacks from a Lasercorp champion or upon getting targeted by a basic attack, the drone has a chance to deal magic damage to the Lasercorps units.

Duelist Set 8 trait
The Duelist trait from Set Four returns to TFT Set Eight, featuring a total of seven champions in a verticle trait. Basic attacks grant all Duelist units bonus attack speed.

Spellslinger Set 8 trait
Spellslinger is an ability power tree in TFT Set Eight containing five units. The trait provides Spellslinger units additional ability power after casting a spell, dealing a portion of their ability power as magic damage.

Gadgeteen Set 8 trait
There are five Gadgeteen units in TFT Set Eight. During every round, Gadgeteen units generate a random modified weapon that will fall apart after two rounds of use.

Heart Set 8 trait
There are six Heart TFT Set Eight units. Heart is an ability power trait that has all Heart units gain stacking ability power for the rest of combat upon casting their first spell. Ability power increases at each breakpoint.

Threat Set 8 trait
The Threat trait is the first of its kind since it’s technically not a trait. Despite objections from Mortdog, Rammus is in Set Eight and the Armordillo has the Threat trait. Champions who have Threat don’t benefit from other units that also have Threat because they are essentially loner vigilantes.

To compensate for Threat units not having any trait synergies, the TFT design team increased their overall power level. Set Eight Threat champions are ideal targets to reroll while providing flexibility within early, mid, and end-game comps. Other Threat champions that we know about include Vel’Koz, Zac, Bel’Veth, and Aurelion Sol.

Anima Squad TFT Set 8 trait
The Anima Squad contains TFT champions like Miss Fortune, Vayne, Jinx, Nasus, Riven, and Sylas. They like taking down 메이저놀이터 enemies and are willing to strike a pose after doing so. But the pose isn’t about being flashy as it earns the Anima Squad champions Fame points that stack.

Each Fame point grants champions within the Anima Squad trait ability and attack damage that increases at each breakpoint.

Underground Set 8 TFT trait
Underground champions are perpetually attempting a heist, according to Mortdog. Units that have the Underground trait that we know about include Samira, Sona, Kayle, and Vi. Each round of player combat advances the Underground champions toward completing their mysterious heist.

Combat wins provide one point of progress while losses provide two points of progress. Each time seven points of progress are achieved, an Armory appears that offers Heist rewards. Players can take what is offered or hold out for more powerful options. Top rewards 메이저토토 from the dev video showed Radiant items, Ornn Artifacts, and heaping amounts of gold.

Arsenal unique Set 8 trait
Similar to past TFT sets, Set Eight has unique traits that apply to only one champion. Arsenal is a custom trait for Aphelios. The trait allows players to swap weapons for Aphelios in between combat to change his overall abilities메이저사이트

A.D.M.I.M. Set 8 TFT trait
Joining Threat as a new trait within TFT, A.D.M.I.M.allows players a chance to customize what the trait does for their team. The trait is designed around Cause and Effect options that the player can 메이저토토사이트 customize. There are a total of seven Cause and Effect options

The beloved Star Guardian trait returns to TFT, but with a slightly different look. Set Eight champions that have the Star Guardian trait that we know about include Lux, Yuumi, Rell, Ekko, Nilah, Taliyah, Syndra, and Kai’Sa.

Star Guardians had previously given mana to one another during the Galaxies Set. Set Eight has the Star Guardian trait generating mana for the team at each breakpoint. Upon more Star Guardians getting added to the battlefield, the more mana they generate, and the faster they cast.
