TFT patch 14.5 notes
TFT item swaps
There are three major item swaps in TFT patch 14.5. Redemption is getting replaced by Spirit Visage to cater to tank units and encourage greedier strategies. Meanwhile, Runaan’s Hurricane is being swapped for Kraken’s Fury to move away from its niche use toward a scaling AD item. As for Statikk Shiv, that’s moving to the Artifact pool while Void Staff is taking its place as a core item for mana, AP, AS, and MR.

TFT Set 14 item reworks
In terms of the item reworks in TFT patch 14.5, they’re going to Guinsoo’s Rageblade, Sterak’s Gage, and Guardbreaker. Guinsoo’s Rageblade is getting 6% stacking AS per second instead of per attack to make its scaling more consistent and less exploitable by units with high AS. Next, Sterak’s Gage is getting omnivamp, increased health, AD, plus shield health that decays over four seconds. As for Guardbreaker, this item is getting renamed to Striker’s Flail. It’s also going to get damage amplification based on critical strikes.
