TFT patch 12.15 notes: Pool Party little legends, Nami nerfs, Trainer buffs

Meg Kay

With a slate of buffs across the board, TFT Patch 12.15 is bringing the power to Nomsy, the trusted companion of the Trainer trait. It also sees another installment in the Nami nerfs that have been a consistent fixture throughout Dragonlands, and changes to Ornn items.

The patch-within-a-patch that was TFT Patch 12.14b saw the removal of one of the most powerful strategies in the game, the much-hated Astral toggle.

And now that Astral toggle is gone, and some of the more powerful dragons have been nerfed, Riot are looking to inject some power back into other aspects of the game. Xayah has received her first buff of the set, along with some significant buffs to Nomsy, everyone’s favorite fire-breathing toad.

Here’s what you need to know about TFT Patch 12.15.

What’s changed in TFT patch 12.14b?

Trainer buffs as Nomsy becomes star of the show

Heimerdinger’s trusty pet Nomsy will receive buffs in patch 12.15 to bring Dragon Trainer up to par with other traits.

As one of the less-popular traits so far in Dragonlands, Trainer has very much flown under the radar when it comes to balance team attention.

But no longer. Nomsy, the fire-breathing creature summoned by activating the Trainer trait, has received substantial buffs in TFT Patch 12.15, making her a real late-game force to be reckoned with. The buffs come in exchange for a slight decrease in her early game power, but the payoff gives her an extra 125 damage on her fireball at trainer 3.

Nothing to be sniffed at.

A wild Pool Party little legend appears

Pool Party Ao Shin will be available through Pool Party eggs.

It’s summertime. The sun is shining, the bees are buzzing, and it’s time for a good old-fashioned pool party. But even if you’d rather spend your summer days grinding to Diamond, you can celebrate the season with a new set of Pool Party little legends that will drop alongside TFT Patch 12.15.

Umbra will get five new Pool Party variants, available in the client, which can either be purchased directly or as a random Pool Party egg. The eggs can also drop a rare Pool Party Ao Shin variant, complete with its very own life jacket to stay safe in the sun.
