A preview patch? What is it?
LoR should be released in beta in early 2020, but LoL's 10th anniversary was the perfect opportunity to introduce the game and offer early access to players. These patches will be an opportunity to discover the game and present its features, but it is also an opportunity for Riot to fix as many bugs as possible before the official release.
The first patch will focus on obtaining cards and building decks in order to test the major features already present. A few jokers will be added to the experiment in order to start the deck building process as soon as possible.
A pre-registration reward?
As you can imagine, the answer is yes! All accounts created during the pre-registration will receive an exclusive Lunar Poro Guardian during the official release! A simple connection during the Beta or during the seven days following the release of LoR will be enough! You will only get it once the complete set has been released.
