Below you will find a comprehensive list of new features, skins and balance changes that are currently active in the PBE, relative to the live server. '''These changes are tentative and are all subject to change. Please do not replicate this information elsewhere on the site.'''

New Skins in the Store
The following skins have been added to the store:

PVP.net

 * Replays.pngy System
 * There is now an integrated replay system. Replays are stored on the server for 7 days. You can move these files to your local machine, at which point they are only deleted when you choose to do so. Replays you've watched are automatically transferred to your local machine. You can also save replays of another player's games by viewing the games in their match history.


 * TeamBuilder.jpg Builder
 * Some Team Builder assets were released in V4.3 in preparation for a Live BETA.


 * A new team-building feature that allows you to host/join matchmade teams based on the champions and roles you want to play. The captain has the ability to accept and decline prospective team mates; and team members can leave at any time. This will be initially implemented as an independent game mode, alongside Blind and Draft (and will initially be unranked).
