This small Teamfight Tactics Set 17 change is a game-changer for loss streak traits

The surrender mechanics in Teamfight Tactics have been updated, allowing combat to play out to its conclusion even if a player surrenders, rather than ending immediately and deleting their army. This change enables players to continue accumulating LP and showcases their champions, even if an opponent forfeits. It may also lead to new strategies, such as players selling off their board before exiting. The adjustment aims to enhance the gameplay experience by reducing disruptions caused by mid-round forfeits.
