	so few changes, I was expecting a much much bigger patch. I guess it'll come over the preseason though... hopefully! Elise buffs definetely needed, Katarina nerfs not too big but definetely needed and that's pretty much what I have to comment.

	quote ShadowCrystallux What about the mastery/spell changes? Or is that for the first patch of S3? I expect it will all come in pieces between now and the beginning of S3, it shouldn't be the opening patch for S3, because Riot has talked a lot about fixing balance as these things get released. While items/masteries/etc are all new, certain champions will be very affected and need changing. ------------------- [twitter]

	Yeah they'll throughout the preseason be releasing a ton of new gameplay affecting updates, maybe we'll for once see a lack of champion releases which I personally wouldn't mind.

	I am only suggesting it as an option, it might be a little too much to expect though! Really though I'm not actually ranting on the champion releases, I think it's great! I just think when they're trying to rebalance the entire game they should probably not release champions that often...

	I'd like to see a month of updates at a minimum to see how the game currently functions, then add the new updates and see where it goes from there. Then start the balancing. ------------------- Have some music

	If I had to guess, timeline: Now Changes roll out, piece by piece Some new champs, along with hefty balance changes to champs made too powerful or weak based on above changes Balance smooths out a little based on the above S3 Riot's done a few patches in the past that are non-champion based, orienting more around an idea or feature, so it wouldn't be a first to see no new champs for a few weeks. ------------------- [twitter]

	I'm logged in at home even though I'm at school, scumbag Inu, clogging up the login times. I've got so much school work to do this week, and I don't even want to play ranked immediately, but the fact that it's there, available for me to start my new rating, is haunting me! ------------------- And begging the sun for one more moment of moonlight.

	This patch wasn't the beginning of S3's ranks was it? Was under the impression there was a kind of downtime in-between the seasons for the item/jungle changes to take effect. ------------------- [twitter]

	I saw Grim's post too and wondered the same thing, but your S2 rating is recorded and it seems like if you were to play ranked now it would put you in your provisional matches for S3. I guess they figured without ranked there would be less people playing, which I'm sure is true. ------------------- And begging the sun for one more moment of moonlight.

	I'm 100% positive that any ranked games you play in the preseason count as season 3 games. I think the main reason why it's not just called season 3 is because of the balance transition-time. Basically the game will have massive changes in this period of time but the game will go on as normal.

I thought so too. Champion free weeks still running on season two, ranked is on season 3, wtf? Little confused here >.> ------------------- Sign up for League of Legends here!
