In Teamfight Tactics (TFT) Season 7, Riot has introduced many mechanisms as well as a variety of powerful champions with unique abilities. Notable examples include Zoe, who can utilize numerous skills of champions that have appeared in previous TFT seasons. Additionally, the group of Dragon champions boasts unprecedented price and power levels compared to previous TFT seasons. Furthermore, there is a rich and diverse traits system that significantly impacts players’ match outcomes in this season 7.
One of the strongest traits currently, according to the TFT community, is the Dragon’s Blessing. The strength of this trait lies in its activation, allowing players to have a chance to acquire Dragon champions in the Shop after every 5 champion rolls. Therefore, players will face almost no difficulty in obtaining 3-star units, provided they belong to the Dragon’s Blessing trait, whether from the original system or using the trait charm.
This is precisely why the Dragon’s Blessing charm has become one of the rarest yet most sought-after items in TFT Season 7. If this charm is equipped on high-value champions, it becomes easy for players to obtain quality 3-star 5-cost units. Thus, many players believe that owning the Dragon’s Blessing trait is equivalent to achieving 50% of the conditions for victory.
Perhaps sensing the overwhelming power of the Dragon’s Blessing charm, despite its rarity in TFT, Riot has decided to remove it entirely. Specifically, during a recent livestream on YouTube, Riot Mortdog – the project lead for TFT, announced the decision to eliminate the Dragon’s Blessing in the upcoming patch 12.13.
It can be said that this adjustment might leave the TFT community feeling regretful. However, considering what this charm brings, it is clearly an item that could be described as “guaranteed victory.” Therefore, in line with the principle of creating a balanced environment, Riot’s action is entirely reasonable, at least at this moment.
