Hi!
We have been working hard the past week and are getting close to releasing the next patch, which is currently scheduled for Monday. But, to be on the safe side, we have decided to release a public beta first, so here it is
We have tested this build for 24 hours and did not find any issues, however use this at your own risk! Please back up important league files before loading them in this beta.
This version is compatible with previus builds in online leagues
