(Warning: PBE Content is tentative and iterative - what you see may not reflect what eventually gets pushed to live servers! Manage your expectations accordingly. )
In- Client Match History Update
The in-client match history has been updated to now show the items purchased in each match. Clicking on the individual match still takes you to the external match history site, this update just shows additional information in a longer window instead of the live version where half of it is eaten up by an explanation of the new match history system.

Balance Changes
* Remember *: The PBE is a testing grounds for new, tentative, and sometimes radical changes. The changes you see below may be lacking context or other accompanying changes that didn't make it in - don't freak out! These are not official notes.
Champions
Elise
- Base attack range lowered to 500 from 550
- Neurotoxin ( Human Q ) range decreased to 500 from 625***
- [ Context: now targets from hit box to hit box instead of center to center. Pwyff has commented this makes the range reduction closer to 50 UNITS not 125 UNITS ]
- Cocoon ( Human E ) missile width decreased to 55 from 70
- Rappel ( Spider E ) range decreased to 700 from 925***
- [ Context: now targets from hit box to hit box instead of center to center. Pwyff has commented this makes the range reduction closer to 100 UNITS not 225 UNITS ]
- [ ***Context: Pwyff dropped off additional context on these changes, saying:
"Quick thing on the Elise changes: they've also been modified to judge distance from edge of hitbox to edge. The TLDR is that some abilities judge distance from the center of the champion (like dead center) and then draw a straight line to the dead center of their target. That's center-to-center distance.
Hitbox to hitbox takes into account champion size (average is like... 65 units? 60 units?) as it goes right from the edge of the champ hitbox. Basic attack ranges us edge to edge distance.
So while these range changes seem significant for Elise (they're still significant, don't me wrong), there's accounting for roughly ~100 units that are being added onto this as a result of shifting from center-to-center to edge-to-edge. If it's a Cho'gath it's sort of a weird buff (at least for Q)."
GragasUpdate: Pwyff clarified "Pulled some numbers on the Elise changes, going from center-to-center to edge-to-edge hitboxes is roughly +75 range. So the range changes could be considered roughly a 50 range reduction on Q and a 100 range reduction on Rappel.]
