TFT 11.17 patch notes have become clear with a few changes arriving on the PBE. Riot, trying to shift the game's balance with the new TFT patch, is bringing some nerfs to Hellion, Riven and Yasuo, which stood out and were frequently picked in recent patches. In addition, TFT Patch 11.17 tries to bring Karma and Gwen into the meta. With the new patch, many comps become Riot's target.
TFT 11.17 Patch Notes
Just like in the late days of Set 5, Riven and Yasuo have taken over the meta again. Thanks to a small rework to Legionnaires, they became quite strong, but Riot looks set to rein in this duo with TFT 11.17.
The same balancing applies to the Hellion and Light Guardian comps.

TFT 11.17 Patch Notes: Buffs and Nerfs
In the previous patch, 11.16, Legionnaires received a small change. This change led to more potential carries appearing in Teamfight Tactics. Champions like Riven, Yasuo and even Kayle gained more reliable omnivamp and solidified their places in the meta.
Despite this buff, Riot Games made Legionnaires stronger by increasing their attack speed. The Legionnaires, which began to be picked more often, became a target in Patch 11.17.

Tristana becoming meta again drew Riot's attention to the Hellion comp. The Hellions, which became one of the strongest comps of Set 5.5, became the target of some nerfs in the upcoming patch. While nerfs are being prepared on the PBE server for Lulu and Teemo, the buff coming to Ziggs achieved a degree of balance. Fiddlesticks, Rakan, Nidalee and Viego were also among the champions weakened in Patch 11.17. There is also a change for the Spellweaver and Light Guardian comps. Gwen, Nocturne and Karma were buffed in TFT Patch 11.17.
