Ionia is unique in Set 16 of Teamfight Tactics. It has multiple paths that the Ionian units can traverse. The path is chosen at random at the start of the game and will stay for its entirety. The chosen path will apply to the entire lobby. Each path will affect the way that you approach the game. Some are better with reroll compositions, while others push you towards leveling. Ensure you check the path at the start of every Teamfight Tactics game.

There are breakpoints at three, five, and seven units. Each breakpoint will scale up the strength of your current path. All players in the lobby will have access to the same path. If you want to know the path and do not have a unit, place one in your team planner. You can now hover over the trait in the planner to see the path for that specific game. While the paths do not force you to play a composition, they can better inform your decision making. The benefits are only given to Ionian units. Below is the list of paths in Set 16 of Teamfight Tactics.

Path of the Enlightened

Ionians gain Attack Damage and Ability Power, increased by your player level. After each player combat, you earn bonus XP.

Path of Spirits

Ionians gain bonus HP. When one casts, they gain stacking AD and AP.

Path of Prosperity

Every third takedown Ionians participate in grants one gold. Ionians gain AD and AP, which is increased by 1% for every gold earned this way.

Path of Transcendence

Ionians gain bonus Health and deal bonus magic damage. These effects increase if they are three-starred. 

Path of Precision

Ionian abilities can critically strike, and they gain Critical Strike Chance. Whenever an Ionian casts, Ionian units gain stacking AD and AP.

Path of Blades

Ionian attacks have a chance to trigger an extra attack, and their attacks deal bonus physical damage..
