Teamfight Tactics’ has announced that the new Lunar Legacy event will be bringing an old set back for the first time ever.
Riot’s auto battler Teamfight Tactics is an ever-changing game. Since its inception in 2019, the title has seen several sets come and go, new mechanics, new Little Legends, and much more.
Sets are a core part of Teamfight Tactics, essentially swapping out the units players can field as well as an important mechanic that drastically changes up the game. Set 10 has combined both the Region Portals from Set 9 and the Chosen mechanic from Set 4 to create a bombastic musical-themed cast.
Many players have asked if or when Riot would reprise some of these older sets, with many longing for the memories they once had. Fortunately, Riot has revealed that they would be bringing an older set back, in celebration of the Lunar New Year.
It’s TFT’s first mid-set revival, and we’re returning to the stars with the Galaxies mid-set! Check out why we chose this mid-set, and how we’re updating in with patch 14.02!https://t.co/CizgOP3qss pic.twitter.com/eXVusF5AWW

The event will run from Patch 14.2, which starts on January 24th and will end on March 19th, giving players just over two months to experience the nostalgia of the previous set.
The set won’t be quite as players remember it, as the devs have implemented several balance decisions, as well as new augments and portals which will drastically change how the set was played.
This may mean new strategies crop up that were previously impossible in the past, opening a whole new world of possibilities.
