TFT Set 8 Traits: Our tips on new classes and origins

Gone are the days of dragons, now it's time for the monsters to attack, and thus for the new TFT set 8 traits. And who says new set, says new champions. To clarify things and start this new season in the best conditions, we reveal the new TFT set 8 origins and classes list.

Changes in the new TFT set

As always, the arrival of the new TFT set 8 traits and champions feels like the release of a whole new game. While the gameplay remains very similar, Riot Games shuffles the deck with changes that will require players to strategize to understand the new TFT set 8 meta.

The main change is the augments system, with the addition of heroic optimizations that now bring bonuses linked to a specific champion. For more details, I redirect you to our tier list of the TFT augments of set 8.

TFT set 8 traits: new origins list

To begin with, we discover many interesting new origins in TFT set 8 traits, even if some of them have a similar operation to what we have seen in the past.

For example, A.D.M.I.N is an improved version of the Mutant trait from Set 6. For their part, Threat champions are in some ways the successors to the Dragons of Set 7, since their bonuses do not apply to multiple players.

Finally, there are also more fun to play, like Underground, the Pirate of the TFT set 8 features, or Gadgeteen, which promises unusual builds Let's move on to the list of the TFT set 8 origins.
