A chroma for Championship Ashe was also added to the PBE! This chroma will be available together with the 2017 Golden Championship ward by crafting it for 320 tokens. Tokens will be available during Worlds, expect more information as the event draws closer!





Championship Ashe Golden Chroma

Crafting Reward, Legacy

"Hello everyone! You’ll see on PBE soon the Championship Ashe Golden Chroma and the 2017 Golden Championship Ward. These two items can be unlocked together via the 2017 Worlds Crafting store for 320 Tokens. These items will only be available via the Tokens you can earn during Worlds. At the end of Worlds, we’ll be removing these from crafting.

We’re making these items legacy to allow those of you that choose to, to have something that shows off that “you were there” and that you crushed your missions during Worlds.

These will be rare items, and we realize not everyone will be able to unlock them.

Please share your thoughts with us."

"Welcome, ladies and gentleman, to another exciting edition of the League of Draven Championship Series!

Primetime Draven Chromas - 290 RP each, 2830 RP for the bundle (975 RP if you already own the champion and skin!)

New textures - Let’s check out our OP players of the game: Draven, Draven, Draven, Draven, and Draaaven!

- Let’s check out our OP players of the game: Draven, Draven, Draven, Draven, and Draaaven! Pearl - Draven’s sportin’ a white suit. Fancy!



Catseye - Draven knows nothing’s more deluxe than gold!



Tanzanite - Purple perfection? I got that.



Sapphire - You Dravens are crazy! Blue is sleek!



Obsidian - The losing team’s really going to a dark place.

Championship Ashe Chroma - Earned through mission tickets!

New textures - Draven here, to tell you about the new Championship Ashe Chroma!

- Draven here, to tell you about the new Championship Ashe Chroma! Catseye - More gold and more shiny! Just the way Draven likes it!

Missions! - Also, she won’t be available in the Store for RP. Instead, you’ll have to buy her with mission tickets which can be earned during the event! Primetime Draven Chromas are currently available on PBE! However, Championship Ashe Chroma is currently not--we'll let you know when she is! We hope you all will enjoy the new sets, but we’re also looking forward to hearing what you really think and feel, and any other constructive feedback. Riot Orphyre will do his best to answer all questions, and reply to all of your feedback!

Thanks!

Team Based Competitive Mode - "Clash"

Riot Draggles

"Hey all,

You might see some new visual assets floating around the PBE (brackets, icons, some UI elements).

We’re on PBE soon for an upcoming feature test in Vietnam for a new team-based competitive mode. Anything you see will be a work in progress and subject to change! We don’t have anything to share on this front yet outside of the VN server, but we’ll definitely let you know what’s going down when we’re closer to a global release."

8/30 Update

"Background: This is the implementation for https://boards.pbe.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/general-pbe-feedback/ELwjNdvb-team-based-competitive-mode-vietnam-playtest-soon, which was deployed on the PBE yesterday (it's not enabled yet).

Picture 1: First you choose which tournament to participate in. If there's only one, it immediately drops you into this screen, where you get some general information and the ability to create a roster.

Picture 2: For reference, this is the FAQ hidden behind the question mark in the previous image.

Picture 3: Create a new roster and you get dropped in your manage view, where you can presumably manage your roster.

Picture 4: A whole range of cute icons, including chromas. All chromas seem to be unlocked whenever you have access to the icon.

Picture 5: Looking through the code it seems that you can unlock icons like these from winning tournaments.

Picture 6: This is how the roster looks with some members. The ticket icon seems to work like a kind of buy-in system, but I have absolutely no clue how it works.

Picture 7: Another close-up at the buy-in system, along with the invite button to add members to your roster.

Picture 8: You can also be invited to teams, which show up in the usual invite tray over in the right. The numbers below the invite seem to be the start and end date of the tournament.



Picture 9: There also seems to be a scouting-like system for finding interesting teams. They show both ranked KDAs/stats and champion mastery. I'm assuming history is for previous games with the roster.



GIF: A gif of the bracket scrolling.

Usual Disclaimer: All of this is not yet enabled, and everything in this album was created from looking around the code and emulating the League server side. That means that although the UI will probably not change much, some things are obviously not included here. Notable things I've seen but couldn't figure out:

- Unlockable themes.

- Details around rewards.

- Roster buyouts, bidding wars.

- Your tournament history.

- How stuff looks in the different stages of the tournaments."
