Embark on a journey to harness the power of your soul, test your strategic prowess, and prove your worth as a legendary tactician in this fast-paced and action-packed tournament-style mode. Alongside the Soul Brawl, dive into the Choncc Dome and indulge in new Tacticians, Booms, and a fierce arena where champions rise and fall. Welcome to the fight—let’s equip you with all the know-how to secure victory in the Soul Brawl!
The Epic Showdown Begins: Soul Brawl Mode
The Soul Brawl mode, part of Riot’s Soul Fighter event, thrusts players into a thrilling 1v1 tournament, where only the strongest will prevail. Divided into two phases, the Training Phase from 1-1 to 3-8 and the Tournament Phase beyond 3-8, the Soul Brawl takes TFT to new heights of excitement and competition.
Training Phase: Gather Soul Power and Train to Triumph
In the Training Phase, prepare to accumulate Soul Power through your victories (30), losses (15), and eliminations of enemy champions (1). Soul Power replaces Health, offering a unique twist to the gameplay dynamics—your soul’s strength is your lifeline! Embrace the challenge and strive to outwit your opponents, as every round shapes your destiny in the forthcoming tournament. As you amass Soul Power, prepare to encounter the enigmatic figures, Gwen and Sett, who will visit you to aid with valuable loot or even emerge as formidable PvE bosses. Your Soul Power also plays a pivotal role in empowering your Soul Crown later in the game.
Empowerment Through Imperfection: The Imperfect Soul Crown
During the training phase, your journey begins with the Imperfect Soul Crown, an essential tool that enhances the stats (AD, AP, HP) of the crowned champion and transforms their last listed non-unique trait into a double-edged advantage. This reusable consumable, akin to Dragonmancer’s Blessing or Mecha Prime designator, grants strategic depth to your planning phase and sets the stage for epic clashes in the Tournament Phase.
Tournament Phase: The Ultimate Showdown
When training concludes, and your Soul Power reaches its zenith, the Tournament Phase unleashes a best-of-three bracket, pitting you against fierce opponents in an electrifying face-off. Feel the stakes rise as your Imperfect Soul Crown metamorphoses into the awe-inspiring Soul Crown, supercharging your champion’s stats based on your total Soul Power from the Training Phase. However, the true triumph lies in the crown’s additional ability—when your champion faces their seemingly inevitable demise, the Soul Crown brings them back to life, infused with health twice the amount of your gathered Soul Power, and purged of all detrimental effects.
Risks and Rewards: The Road to Victory
In the Tournament Phase, the pressure is on to make critical decisions, position your empowered carry strategically, and optimize your items to gain an edge over your adversaries. With no room for error, every move matters, as a second defeat will spell your elimination from the match. Embrace the challenge and show your mettle, for glory awaits the champions who conquer the Soul Brawl!
Additional Gameplay Nuances
Soul Brawl introduces several intriguing tweaks to standard TFT gameplay. Streaks are removed, and passive gold per round offers a fresh approach to economic strategy. Interest mechanics remain unchanged, preserving the essence of TFT’s core mechanics. Notably, some Region Portals and Augments are disabled in Soul Brawl, ensuring a balanced and immersive experience. While the lovable Pengu and legendary Vladimir Legends sit this one out due to the mode’s unique dynamics, players can still experiment with a few Augments and traits inspired by Hyper Roll gameplay.
Unleash Your Soul Power in Soul Brawl
Soul Brawl in Teamfight Tactics encapsulates the essence of competitive gaming, delivering an electrifying and strategic experience that will captivate both seasoned players and newcomers alike. As you embark on this soul-stirring journey, explore diverse build possibilities, forge alliances in co-op, and relish the exhilaration of triumphing over legendary bosses. With the clock ticking and elimination looming, harness the power of your soul and emerge as the ultimate tactician in the Soul Brawl tournament!
