For all tournaments, from amateur to professional, in Teamfight Tactics, a rule against exploiting the Supreme Dragon bug will be in effect.
Following the release of patch 12.14, TFT players have witnessed a noticeable surge in the popularity of the Supreme Dragon composition in their matches. This rise is attributed to a seemingly minor bug with Supreme Dragon that has been consistently abused to manipulate equipment and power.

Specifically, upon activating the 9 Supreme Dragon milestone during the preparation phase, the Supreme Dragon shop almost guarantees you the necessary items. This allows players to play a 6 Supreme Dragon comp to secure a win against opponents, and then in the preparation round, introduce the remaining Supreme Dragon champions to manipulate equipment. Riot Mortdog emphasized that you must activate the 9 Supreme Dragon milestone and compete in at least one round against another player to achieve this.
Due to this exploit, Supreme Dragon has been excessively abused in high-ranked matches, causing frustration among players. However, Riot Games seems to show no intention of addressing or fixing this issue, allowing the abuse of Supreme Dragon to persist without control.

Perhaps unable to wait any longer, in recent posts on the Reddit forum, organizers of TFT tournaments in North America announced that they would implement a rule against exploiting the Supreme Dragon bug. This rule not only applies to the bug at the 9-champion milestone but also completely prohibits the use of 3 or 6 Supreme Dragon champions in the preparation round and then removing them to exploit resources.
This rule is imperative because in League of Legends tournaments, efficiency is always prioritized, and players can use any means to secure victory. Clearly, at present, owning a 2-star Aurelion Sol, multiple items, and exploiting the 9 Supreme Dragon bug is the most certain path to victory. If the community does not establish a rule against this exploit, the scenario of 4-5 players using this bug in a match is entirely plausible.

It's crucial to note that the mentioned Supreme Dragon bug has existed since Season 7. The reason it only became prevalent in patch 12.14 is that Riot increased the supply rate of the 9 Supreme Dragon milestone. While this is a well-intentioned move to encourage players to use this milestone, Riot seems to have overlooked the mentioned bug, resulting in the current negative gameplay in League of Legends.
Fortunate are the professional gamers who can compete without facing the challenge of encountering cheaters using the Supreme Dragon bug. However, ordinary players climbing the ranks daily are not as fortunate, and the hope is that Riot will promptly provide a fix to make this bug disappear as quickly as possible.
