2015 Ranked Reward Summoner Icons
As we move towards the end of the 2015 ranked season, 2015 Ranked reward summoner icons are now on the PBE! These will be distributed based on the rank tier you end the season in!There is an icon for each of the three ranked queues - Solo, 3v3, 5v5 - for each tier. There are a total of three sets of three Challenger icons as there are unique icons for challenger positions for 1-10, 11-50, and 51-200 for solo queue and 1-3, 4-15, and 16-50 for 3v3 & 5v5 teams.

Vision Changes - Ward "Rubble"
After killing a ward, "rubble" now remains there for a short duration [not sure how long, as of the 11/13 update I've had some disappear in about ~5 minutes while others in 30 seconds to a minute]
The blue circle represents a friendly ward that has recently been destroyed and the red circle represents an enemy ward that has recently been destroyed.
All-Star Summoner Icon Emblems
Similar to the icons from the 2015 World Championship teams, the new TEAM ICE AND TEAM FIRE All-Star team summoner icons include new emblem emotes.Just like the 2015 WC summoner icons, equipping either of these new icons makes your mastery emote key (control + 6 by default) display the appropriate team's emblem.
TEAM FIRE:
Here's a video of the two new emblems in action:
For reference, here are the TEAM FIRE and TEAM ICE icons that were added in an earlier patch this cycle.
