Riot Games is bringing an exciting new Player versus Environment (PvE) mode to Teamfight Tactics (TFT) called Tocker’s Trials. This temporary mode will be available on the Public Beta Environment (PBE) servers starting today, August 13, and will officially launch with Patch 14.17 on August 27.

Set to run until September 24, Tocker’s Trials offers a fresh, educational, and fun twist to the popular auto-battler game. Let’s dive into the details of this innovative game mode.

What is Tocker’s Trials?

Tocker’s Trials is a unique PvE game mode designed to provide an alternative gameplay experience in TFT. It maintains the core mechanics from TFT Set 12 but introduces several key changes to create a distinct and engaging experience.

Tocker’s Trials is particularly notable for its potential to teach new players the intricacies of TFT while offering seasoned players a fun challenge.

Key Features of Tocker’s Trials

1. Battle Against Bosses

Tocker’s Trials consists of 30 rounds where players face off against six bosses. Unlike traditional TFT gameplay, this mode gives players only three lives to complete all the rounds. The absence of timers allows players to take their time and strategize effectively before each battle.

2. Earn Points and Achieve High Scores

Players can earn points for each round completed, aiming for a high score that reflects their strategic prowess and progress through the 30 rounds. This scoring system adds a competitive edge to the PvE experience, encouraging players to optimize their strategies.

3. No Timers

One of the standout features of Tocker’s Trials is the removal of timers. Players can choose when they’re ready to battle, providing a more relaxed and thoughtful approach to each round. This change is especially beneficial for newcomers learning the game’s mechanics.

4. Chaos Mode

For those seeking an additional layer of challenge, Tocker’s Trials includes a Chaos mode. While Riot has yet to release detailed information about this mode, it promises to add a twist to the standard gameplay, catering to players looking for a more chaotic and unpredictable experience.

Community Reaction

The TFT community has shown significant excitement for Tocker’s Trials. Content creators like Frodan have praised the mode for its potential to be both fun and educational, helping new players learn TFT while providing veterans with a fresh challenge.

The mode’s temporary nature adds to its appeal, as players are eager to see how it might evolve and possibly return in the future.
