Patch 17.6 — June 24, 2026
The Teamfight Tactics Patch 17.6 patch notes land as a lighter three-week patch (17.7 slips to July 15 for a Rioter break) — targeted nerfs to the dominant Gnar reroll comp, a Loot Singularity cashout rework, and a wide augment pass sit alongside buffs to underused units in Space Gods. Track the live Teamfight Tactics season countdown to Set 17’s end.
TL;DR — Balance pass ahead of regional tournaments: Loot Singularity (Dark Star) cashouts reworked to grant components earlier; Anima Squad (6) cashout adjusted; Nami and N.O.V.A units buffed; Gnar reroll and Meeple (7) econ nerfed. Meta impact: Gnar reroll pushed off the top; more room for N.O.V.A and Anima Squad compositions.
