Teamfight Tactics lead developer, Mortdog, recently shed light on the importance and impact of Heartsteel, a newly introduced boy band in the League of Legends universe, on the development of the game's tenth set.
The tenth set, known as Remix Rumble, is now available on live servers, and brings a unique music-themed twist to the game. The set pulls its influences from various music genres and bands, including K/DA, Emo, Country and Disco.
Remix Rumble is entirely based on music, boasting a lineup of traits that reflect different bands and music genres. This set marks the time when even K/DA, Emo, Country, and Disco made an entrance into the Teamfight Tactics' universe.

Alongside its musical influences, the tenth set has also reintroduced the Chosen mechanic from the fourth set. This feature allows players to pick a potent unit which provides bonuses to their team's makeup.
These Chosen units are known as Headliner units, which provide a +1 bonus to one of their traits and augment their capabilities to make them more formidable. This strategy offers players a unique advantage when building their team.
However, the Music set owes its existence to the League of Legends universe's bands, with the recent addition of Heartsteel being essential for Set 10's music-oriented theme.
Impact of Heartsteel on Set 10
Heartsteel, the newest boy band in the franchise, played a vital role in shaping Set 10. Mortdog, the lead developer of TeamFight Tactics, elaborated on Heartsteel's influence during a live stream.
Mortdog shared insights into how the themes and ideas for Set 10 were pitched during the Set 7 era. Music was one of the central themes that emerged during this phase, and it was positively received in player surveys.
Although a few team members, including Mortdog, were unsure about incorporating the music theme, the entry of Heartsteel into the League of Legends universe provided the perfect opportunity to give it a shot.
Mortdog emphasised that if the Heartsteel band hadn’t been introduced, pitching a music-themed set would have been considerably more difficult. The band's presence solidified the theme and made the pitch more feasible.
Teamfight Tactics' latest set, Remix Rumble, takes the game in an exciting, music-themed direction. The recent release, Set 10, leverages the popularity and embracement of music and related elements in gaming arenas.
The introduction of Heartsteel was a turning point that led to an innovative, music-dominated theme for Set 10, offering a unique gaming experience reflecting various music genres and bands.
