Teamfight Tactics patch 17.4 is upon us, and Riot looks to be rebalancing conditionality. While the one-cost reroll menace was finally defeated in 17.3, I feel like the playstyle itself has been overcorrected. We do have a decent spread of higher-cost boards now, but highly-conditional boards continue to dominate – Serpent Stargazer Xayah, Dark Star emblem vertical, and Yi with the correct Psionic item all come to mind. If you don’t hit a narrow RNG chute, you’re suddenly in a four-way battle to hit the only real default board: Corki-Riven. In the patch 17.4 rundown, Live Balance Lead Tim ‘Truexy’ Jiang has some thoughts on this, and I’m inclined to agree.

 TFT patch 17.4 delves deep into the conditionality debate, freeing up certain traits, while injecting verticals with a little more juice.  PCGamesN
