Watch this to get an overall idea of what champions and synergies are in the new set:
...and for a quick look at the new Champions and Traits:
Ranked
The Galaxies' ranked season will start immediately with the launch of this patch.
There is no longer any rank decay below Master.
You also cannot decay out of Master. We hope you'll keep trying for the top, but we don't want TFT to feel like a daily obligation with a big penalty hammer attached.
System
Lots of changes here, in fact we wrote a whole article about it.
Base damage per Stage increased to 0/3/4/5/10/15/20 from 0/2/3/4/5/6/7
Additional damage per surviving unit reduced to 1 (was previously calculated based on the Star level and Gold Cost of the unit ranging from 1-8).
Loot/Item Drops
Champions are now more likely than just pure gold from all the levels of bonus boxes.
Gold & Champion Medium boxes can’t drop in the first two rounds.
Neeko’s help is ~35% less likely to drop from all boxes.
Movement
All Champions Movement speed: 550⇒500
Champions now move more smoothly from hex to hex when walking
Melee Champions now move slightly earlier at the start of combat than ranged Champions
If a Champion is in attack range of their target and the target moves out range, the Champion will now only chase their target for 1 hex before switching targets to the closest enemy
Mana
Mana gain from attacking by star level: 8/10/12⇒10
Champions now use their mana later in the spell cast
Carousel
The first carousel is now all 1-cost champs instead of 2-cost champs.
Carousels now have MANY more possible combinations of items.
Spatula’s can again appear on the carousel, but much less often than before.
Full items can show up earlier than the fifth carousel.
Components can show up in the sixth carousel and beyond.
Many new arrangements of carousel possibilities have been added.
Other
5 seconds have been added to each planning phase for first patch learning as people ramp up. These will be removed in Patch 10.7
Disarm no longer prevents spell casts. Only auto attacks.
All champions in the game scale of AP in some way. AP can scale things besides Damage/Healing/Shielding. See each champs tooltip for details.
Item combine rules: When units combine, items are placed on the combined unit in this priority: 1) Thiefs Gloves 2) Random full items 3) Random components.
Bugfix: Champions are now once again larger at 3 star compared to 2 star
Bugfix: Fixed long-standing issues around units with high attack speed sometimes having their basic attacks visually disappear mid-flight.
Bugfix: Fixed an issue where large attack speed increases during combat could cause units to visually desync their animations from their actual attack speed
Items
New Items
Hush is now Chalice of Favor ( gives two nearby allies mana per cast)
Iceborne Gauntlet is now Shroud of Stillness (Increase certain enemies mana costs by 40% at the start of a round.)

In the League of Legends Client
Things might look a little different as TFT is getting a new hub. Below we'll share some of the new features and things to look for:
Galaxies Pass
Learn more about pass, Little Legends, and Arenas here.
You will now see the current pass and your progression towards rewards.
You can also Galaxies Pass+ to access premium content and receive the UFO Sprite at any time. Rewards are granted retroactively if you’ve passed levels already, don't worry about buying it right away.
All rewards in the pass are now browseable and have descriptions. Fancy.
Level and XP tracker is specified on the left-hand side.
TFT missions can be easily accessed by clicking the button in the top right corner. This will also showcase the number of available Missions.
New weekly missions to gain XP towards the pass.
The Orb is gone. In addition to missions you'll also be rewarded XP for just playing games.
This is also where you will claim rewards from the pass.
You will now see the time remaining for the event.
There's now a new content line-up at the bottom of the hub, you'll see things like news, patch notes, dev thoughts, purchasable Arenas, Little Legends, and Booms.
Lobby
The new Booms can now be selected within the parties screen
The loadouts screen has been updated to support them as well.
In the lobby you'll be able to track TFT related missions that will giveXP towards your pass by opening the button to the right of their player card.
Other Stuff
Don't be surprised if you see an introduction that explains the new Galaxy Pass the first time you enter the new hub. Patch Notes readers like yourself will surely not need this introduction, but check it out anyway, just for me.
If you bought the Galaxies Pass+, you can earn additional rewards once you've completed it. Their XP prices are pretty far out there and are meant for those that play A LOT of TFT.
Balance
These changes are coming from PBE to a live server near you.
