Teamfight Tactics is once again leaning into its most colorful tradition, as Lunar Revel: Festival of Beasts makes its return — and yes, it’s bringing the delightful, barely-controlled madness with it.
For players who remember the original event, Festival of Beasts wasn’t just a cosmetic reskin. It was TFT in party mode. Fireworks, over-the-top augments, and gameplay twists that rewarded creativity over strict meta obedience. Riot is now reviving that spirit, polishing it up, and letting chaos loose all over the carousel.
At the heart of the event is variety. Expect unusual openings, unpredictable power spikes, and moments where your carefully planned comp suddenly becomes either a galaxy brain masterpiece or a beautiful disaster. Sometimes both in the same round.
What makes Festival of Beasts special is how it temporarily breaks TFT’s usual rhythm. Ranked play trains players to optimize, refine, and solve the puzzle as efficiently as possible. Lunar Revel flips that script and says: what if the puzzle laughed back at you?
The return of the event also highlights one of TFT’s biggest strengths — its willingness to experiment. Unlike traditional competitive games that fear shaking the ladder too hard, TFT treats limited-time modes as a creative sandbox. Some ideas vanish after the event. Others quietly evolve into future mechanics. It’s design jazz, and Festival of Beasts is one of its loudest performances.
Visually, Lunar Revel remains one of TFT’s most striking events, drenched in reds, golds, fireworks, and celebratory flair. It’s a reminder that this is still a game about toy-box strategy, not sterile spreadsheets.
For veterans, it’s a nostalgia hit with sharper edges. For newer players, it’s an invitation to stop worrying about perfect play and start enjoying the absurdity of a game where sometimes the smartest move is leaning into the madness.
Festival of Beasts isn’t about climbing. It’s about expression, experimentation, and embracing the fact that TFT is at its best when it’s slightly unhinged.
And honestly? That’s when it’s the most fun.
