Teamfight Tactics Game events | Overwolf Developers

Game events API
Events status

Please read the overwolf.games.events documentation page to learn how to use Overwolf game events.

Note that TFT, TFT PBE and LOL share the same Game ID.

tip

If you would like to know when the user is going to play TFT (hit the "Play" button), you can listen to the LoL Launcher lobby_info info-update, and check the queueID. If it's 1090 or 1100 - it's TFT, or 1130, for "Hyperoll".

Sample Apps

TFT game events sample app

Game events status

It's highly recommended to communicate errors to your users. Check game event status here or easily verify event status directly from your app using our API.

info

Because LOL and TFT share the same GameID, when checking TFT game event status please use 21570 as the unique GameID for TFT and 215701 for TFT PBE.

roster/player_status notes

The full roster of players will first appear during the loading screen.

Each player object includes the following data:

index
health
xp
localplayer
rank
tag_line

Aside from the summoner name which is received during the loading screen, the rest of the data mentioned above will be delivered once the actual game has begun.

Important note regarding "index" data

The final & accurate rank position of each player in the match will be given only at the end of the match when the local player has died or won.
