Update 11.5 for TFT is on the way, and all things considered, it's a minor update. It's a long way from the heavy 11.4 update, but there are still some big changes ahead for Samira, Lulu, Veigar, and more.
Here's what you need to know about the TFT 11.5 patch.
When will the TFT 11.5 update be released?
The TFT 11.5 update will be released on March 3, 2021. The release will be released along with League patch 11.5.
The servers will close around 5am for maintenance and then open again three hours later, around 8am. Don't forget to check the local time on your server to be doubly sure.

Lulu and Veigar's buffs are good for Mages of the Ancient Forest
After Lulu and Veigar were significantly nerfed in turn 4.5, Lulu and Veigar can revive with some new buffs. With Aurelion Sol still in the meta, these changes could mean the return of the Mages of the Ancient Forest to some degree.
Veigar's changes are currently on PBE, giving him bonus damage at all levels. However, Lulu's changes are still unknown.
Buffs for Swain, Yene, and Trap Claw, Statikk Shiv, and Morellonomicon are also on the way. Swain's buffs are the only ones that are public, with an increase in his maximum health damage.
Samira's changes reduce her item dependency
In patch 11.5, Samira's TFT had some small changes that reduce her carry potential but make her a better unit in the early game. Instead of having her damage scaling based entirely on AD, she will also get a flat portion of the extra damage with her ult.
This means you don't need three items on Samira, including the Deathblade, to make her viable. However, it does end up debilitating her DPS once she's fully built.
Jeanne is getting a direct nerf due to Riot targeting her shield, while Cape of Sunfire and Deathblade are also unavailable for additional tweaks.
