Because of not bringing practical benefits to players in TFT, these Hero Cores were ‘retired’ by Riot Games in season 8.5.
Twisted Hook (Kai’Sa’s Support Core)
The power of Twisted Hook Core not necessarily bad, but with other Special Forces units like Ezreal or Vayne having great skill damage, the attack speed from this Core provided to allies cannot be optimized effectively.
The game maker removed the Crooked Hook and added the Reconnaissance Team in DTCL season 8.5 with the effect of helping the 2 closest generals to Kai’Sa receive 40% chance of crit and damage from skills that can crit. Obviously, this is a very ‘genuine’ effect and helps Kai’Sa to support many types of carry in the near future.

Reflection Shield (Annie’s Carry Core)
The Mage squad in season 8 assigns Annie the main tanking task. However, this unit’s Carry Core is too weak when it does not bring rigidity or versatility, but only works after Annie 3 stars and reaches the equipment threshold.
So, Riot Games has replaced the Fire core Strike Shield in TFT season 8.5. This upgrade improves Annie’s skill effects and stuns her opponent for 1.5 seconds. The new core will increase Annie’s versatility and help the player’s squad get stronger quickly.
Ultimate Strength (Syndra’s Carry Core)
Ultimate Strength was born with the mission to help units brought into the field by Syndra can carry the team. But the reality of season 8 has denied this because gamers often use Syndra to put resistant or multi-use pieces on the field. As a result, this core’s attack stats are nullified.
So, Syndra’s Carry Core will be ‘retired’ and launch another core, Useful Sacrifice: When an allied champion is defeated, Syndra will gain 30 mana and 40% attack speed, helping her spam her skill. better performance and bring a lot of units from the queue into the field.
