Underground hype: Riot buffs TFT Set 8 trait, shaking up PBE meta

A big Teamfight Tactics Set Eight buff to the Underground trait will ship in today’s PBE patch heading into the holiday break, increasing rewards and locks cracked.

Riot Games is taking a break over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, with the TFT Set Eight balance team dropping one final change to the Underground trait before vacation time kicks in. Potentially one of the best traits in Monsters Attack!, the Underground trait has units earn progress towards unlocking heist rewards with each combat loss or win. Today’s PBE patch for Set Eight has the Underground hype, according to game design director Stephen “Mortdog” Mortimer, buffing locks cracked and improving Heist rewards.
