One week before Riot Games was slated to release their 10.2 patch to Teamfight Tactics, Stephen Mortimer, the auto chess game's Lead Designer, posted a Youtube video on his official channel announcing a B-side patch was going live on Wednesday afternoon. Typically reserved for "emergency" changes if the team feels certain champions or items are a bit over-tuned, Mortimer revealed that three champions (Lucian, Yorick and Sivir) were being nerfed on the spot to restore order to the meta for the immediate future.
Now that the holidays are over, it's back to work for Riot Games and their Teamfight Tactics' development team. On Monday afternoon, Stephen Mortimer, the game's Lead Designer, posted a rundown video on his official YouTube channel for the upcoming 10.1 patch.

On Wednesday afternoon, the Hearthstone development team released a blog post detailing their most recent round of nerfs to their collectible card game and auto-chess game mode, Battlegrounds. With the Descent of Dragons expansion launching a little more than a week ago, this round of nerfs is the fastest to come after a card set was introduced in the game's history. As "Shamanstone" has returned as a meme within the community due to the class's higher-than-average power-level, the development team moved quickly to even out the playing field prior to members of the company taking a holiday break in the upcoming days. While there are numerous cards in the current meta that individuals suspected would be targeted in this round of balance changes, three Shaman cards and one neutral power-house were hit.
As the holidays approach, the Teamfight Tactics team wants to make sure the auto-battler is in as good a state as possible prior to employees taking a little break to spend time with their families.

Scheduled to go live on Wednesday, the b-side patch will be larger than most, if not the largest of Set 2. "With the holiday, we wanted to make sure the game was in as good a state as possible and there are some things currently on live that we are not okay with," said Mortimer. "The meta has been pretty diverse which is nice but there are a few builds that are exceeding our expectations." The specific changes, which are subject to change if the development team feels necessary, are below.
