With cosmetic loadouts, it will add the ability to sort your cosmetics from the most recent purchase to the oldest. To make it easier to find the latest cosmetics you picked out.
Here is a quote from Senior Manager for TFT Alex Cole being asked about their gameplay goals when designing Magic n’ Mayhem.
Inkborn Fablestook a more serious tone, so with Magic n’ Mayhemlaunching in the summer, we wanted the themeto be light, fun, and colorful to truly embrace the season. When we were developing the set, we wanted a healthymix of traits and Charms that fit low to medium complexity that could be used across new and experienced players.With the magical theme, we really embraced the opportunity for players to be creative and experiment. We wantedplayers to feel like they were in a magical lab where they have to test all sorts of combos to figure out what worksbest for them. Coming out of the 5 Year Anniversary Bash, we also wanted to lean into the new player experienceand offer a variety of ways to make it easier for less experienced players to dive into the set.
