(Homeland) - Players of Teamfight Tactics should utilize the following units, which have received significant power buffs, in the new update.
Aphelios
With the emergence of Samira and Zeri in patch 13.15, Aphelios' position in the physical carry group has been greatly affected. Consequently, in the latest patch, Aphelios receives substantial power buffs from the Teamfight Tactics development team. Firstly, Aphelios' maximum energy is reduced by 20 points. Additionally, the damage of his Calibrum abilities is increased at 1 and 2-star levels.
These changes promise to bolster Aphelios specifically and the Marksman composition in general in the upcoming patch 13.16. Combined with the significant weakening of Zeri and Samira in this patch, Aphelios will have even more opportunities to shine.
Teemo
Teemo: Rising Power in Patch 13.16
Teemo, known for his specialty as an assassin, has recently been favored by Riot to become a dominant force. In the upcoming patch 13.16, this champion continues to receive significant damage stat boosts across all levels of skills. Additionally, Teemo's mushrooms from the Deceiver Mage set now prioritize areas with multiple targets.
Garen: Return of the 'Spinning' Playstyle
The 'spinning' playstyle of Garen promises to make a strong comeback in patch 13.16 as Garen and supporting units receive beneficial adjustments. For Garen himself, the damage output of this unit at 1 and 2-star levels will be significantly increased. Furthermore, other Demacian champions like Galio and Sona receive substantial utility buffs, aiding Garen's survival and enhancing his damage output in the new patch.
Moreover, indirect adjustments to Samira or Lux also indirectly benefit Garen and other melee fighters. Essentially, Samira and Lux will no longer have the ability to reduce a target's defensive stats to negative values starting from patch 13.16. Therefore, melee fighters will become much sturdier and harder to take down.
Conclusion
Riot's Favor: Aphelios, Teemo, and Garen Poised to Lead the Meta in Patch 13.16. Players of Teamfight Tactics may want to utilize these units to climb the ranks more effectively in the new update.
