Context & Notes

Below are a few notes and posts relating to current PBE content in 7.6 cycle:

1) ricklessabandon posted context for the Aatrox changes today :

[1] "aatrox has changes on the pbe 1) passive rewritten 2) new passive colors white = default dark red = hellbent light red = hellbent + revive"

[2] "they're minor, but hopefully make things a bit easier to understand. also, going to go over data from the weekend and assess balance state."

2) NoopMoney and Riot MEMEMEMEME posted on the boards about some tweaks to turning on the PBE:

"Hello from the Champion Update lands! NoopMoney and Riot MEMEMEMEME here to talk about turning changes that are up for testing in the 7.6 PBE cycle. 

We recently discovered that champion positions on your client can get very, very slightly out of sync from League’s servers when champions make wide turns (such as turning to face the opposite direction). We’re making some changes to make the client and server more NSync than before. Don’t worry, neither of them want to start a solo career. Overall this shouldn’t be a noticeable change, but we’re giving everyone the heads up just in case. (We are not adding/increasing turn speeds.) 

Let us know if anything feels significantly off!" 

3) Phroxz0n shared an experimental changelist on the /r/QuinnMains subreddit. Be aware this is not on the PBE and is not something planned for 7.6.
