New TFT Set 5.5 traits list
The biggest addition, traits-wise, in TFT Set 5.5 is Sentinel. It ties into the multiverse event across Runeterra,Rise of the Sentinels. The guardians of Runeterra are fighting back against the Ruination (basically the Forgotten) to try and keep the Black Mist back.
To do so, they’ll need a bit more weaponry. Cannoneer is being added as a new trait too, and while it sounds similar to Gunslinger, it’s different in practice. Some five-cost traits, like Victorious and Inanimate, have also been added.
