This article or section contains upcoming content, and may contain inaccuracies or speculation.
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.
An entry that has been struck-through is a change that has been reverted during the current cycle or a change that did not go live from the previous cycle. These changes may return at a later date, but will be removed from this article if they have not been seen for one whole cycle.
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.
Team 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).
League of Legends VPBE
General
A small icon will appear above the health bar of minions/monsters that are attacking you.
Revised Active: Kassadin next basic attack deals 40 / 65 / 90 / 115 / 140 (+60% AP) bonus magic damage and restores 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 % of his missing mana, increasing to 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 % of his missing mana if the attack is against a champion. The passive and active damage stack.
Bonus gold from killing monsters reduced to 30% from 40%.
Now transforms into Feral Flare upon killing 25 large monsters. (Monsters killed with Hunter's Machete and Madred's Razors count toward the transformation).
Bug: The counter on Wriggle's Lantern will not update to include large monsters slain with Hunter's Machete and Madred's Razors until after you obtain your first stack (e.g. it will jump from 0 to 8 after your first wraith camp).
Unique Passive - Maim: Basic attacks deal 100 (+3 per champion kill/assist and large monster kill) bonus magic damage and restore 12 (+1 per champion kill/assist and large monster kill). Enemy champions take only one-third of the bonus magic damage (33 + 1 per).
Note: Unlike Wriggle, Feral Flare does not take into account kills, assists and large monsters slain prior to receiving the item. This is intended.
During the preseason, this passive was supposedly going to be given to a remade Madred's Bloodrazor. For comparison, Feral Flare's magic damage equates to 4% of the target's maximum health against champions with 825 (+25 per champion kill/assist and large monster kill) health - e.g. at 87 kills/assists/large monsters slain, you will be doing 120 bonus magic damage to champions (4% of a target with 3000 health).
Trinkets
Trinkets are now disabled for the first 120 seconds (2m), increased from 90 seconds (1m30).
Trinkets are now only disabled for 120 seconds upon being sold, lowered from 180 seconds.
Channel duration reduced to 3.5 seconds from 4 seconds.
Masteries
Nothing to report.
Upcoming
The following changes have been teased by Riot, but are not yet active on the PBE. For upcoming content that doesn't have any immediate release date, please see: Future Content.
Bug Fix: Skills/items should no longer go off in the transition between two crowd control effects if their durations overlap (i.e. chained). This is a fairly long-standing bug, but became particularly noticeable on Yasuo's release as it occurs frequently between his ultimate and the airborne-effect he's targeting.
Assuming you're maxing Sonic Wave first, the effective damage including Lee Sin's base AD is: Error: Parameter '3' is not accepted.(+50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90 % bonus AD) (+2.88 per level thereafter).
No longer deals bonus damage equal to 8% of the target's missing health.
The damage is now modified by 0.5% for every 1% of the target's missing health, for a maximum of 22.5 / 52.5 / 82.5 / 112.5 / 142.5 (+75 / 90 / 105 / 120 / 135 % total AD).
The new bonus damage equals as 8% of the target's missing health against enemies with 94 / 219 / 344 / 469 / 594 (+313 / 375 / 378 / 500 / 563 % AD) total health. The new bonus damage is better against enemies with less than the aforementioned amount of health; and worse against target's with more.
