TFT Patch 10.17: Full List of Balance Changes
By Joe Melillo

TFT Patch 10.17 will bring a whole new set of balance changes as well as a completely new galaxy to play on. The new patch will introduce the Manatee's Delight galaxy--a new galaxy that will give every player a spatula to being the game. Additionally, the new patch will nerf Jarvan IV yet again while also adding some nice damage buffs to Cassiopeia and Xerath.
Jarvan IV has been problematic in the meta, as he has the potential to carry an entire team with the right items. It remains to be seen if this patch will finally be the one that makes Jarvan IV balanced. Regardless, let's take a look at all the changes coming to the game in Patch 10.17!
