Teamfight Tactics has been a game mode within League of Legends since it launched, but that’s set to change very soon with the debut of the strategy game for mobile devices.
“Ever since the launch of Teamfight Tactics, players have been asking us for a mobile version of the game,” Riot said in the release before taking a jab at Blizzard. “As it turns out, you do have phones.”

You may remember that Blizzard caused a commotion at Blizzcon 2018 when a developer hit back at fans’ negative reaction to the news that Diablo Immortal would be mobile only by saying: “do you guys not have phones?”
