Most of the Patch 13.9 balance changes are minor tweaks, creating a healthy Set 8.5 meta for the EMEA and NA Regional Finals taking place from May 12 to 14. And all three-star units will have an additional 4,000 health applied through Patch 13.9. From Portals in Normal drop changes to balance tweaks, here are the full TFT Set 8.5 Patch 13.9 notes, according to Riot.\u00a0 Patch 13.9 Normals with Portals The fun continues in TFT Set 8.5's Normal mode with Portals getting added through Patch 13.9.

Riot Games is delivering Portal drops that start with Patch 13.9 while tweaking the Teamfight Tactics <\/em>Set 8.5 meta in preparation for Regional Finals. <\/p>

TFT <\/em>Patch 13.9, which is set to go live on May 3, brings about the start of Portals in Normals<\/a>, showing off a similar mechanic slated to drop through Set Nine while shifting the “for fun” patches to Normal mode. Most of the Patch 13.9 balance changes are minor tweaks, creating a healthy Set 8.5 meta for the EMEA and NA Regional Finals taking place from May 12 to 14. And all three-star units will have an additional 4,000 health applied through Patch 13.9.<\/p>

From Portals in Normal drop changes to balance tweaks, here are the full TFT <\/em>Set 8.5 Patch 13.9 notes<\/a>, according to Riot. <\/p>
