In Teamfight Tactics (TFT), players can surrender matches after the 10-minute mark. Here's everything you need to know about surrendering in TFT:

How to Surrender:

  • Press Escape and click the "Surrender" button
  • Type "/ff" in the in-game chat
  • Both methods work only after 10 minutes of gameplay

Important Surrender Guidelines:

  • Wait until the 10-minute mark
  • Don't abandon games before the surrender timer
  • Leaving early results in increasing queue penalties

When to Consider Surrendering:

  • If you're certain the game is unwinnable
  • When you're short on time and want to start a new match
  • During emergency situations (after 10 minutes)

Why You Might Want to Keep Playing:

  • Potential for late-game comebacks
  • Learning opportunities from difficult situations
  • Complex game mechanics can turn matches around

Remember: Abandoning matches instead of properly surrendering will result in queue restrictions that increase with repeated offenses. Always use the proper surrender function to maintain good matchmaking status.
