(Warning: PBE Content is tentative and subject to change - what you see below may not reflect what eventually gets pushed to live servers at the end of the cycle! Manage your expectations accordingly.)

Summoner Icons

Three new summoner icons are now on the PBE:

2019 LCS Team Pass Icon, 2019 LEC Team Pass Icon, 2019 Fan Pass Icon
"This icon was earned by completing the level 3 X Pass mission."

Miscellaneous

New skin bios added this cycle:
- Demacia Vice Garen: "As chrome eagles cry and steel panthers growl, lightning hot justice is delivered nightly by Detective Garen Stryker on the neon-drenched streets. A black belt in Ionian martial arts, this katana wielding cop pushes it to the limit with every case... for Demacia!"
- Demacia Vice Lucian: "Half man, half machine, and all justice, Detective Lucian Phoenix fights crime under the pastel palm trees of Demacia. Rebuilt out of polished chrome and gilded Piltovan carbon fiber following a fatal gunfight, this technological marvel dispenses vaporwave vengeance as a neon beacon of law and order."

Context & Notes

1) Here's Squad5 with a changelist for Sylas this cycle:

"Here's the Sylas list I'm sending to PBE for tomorrow. This is everything collected together to be less confusing. Anything not here is removed - notably removed the lockout on the E2 > Q combo I was testing."

2) Here's Riot August with TFT balance for 7/1 and 7/3:

[1] "Here are today's (7/1) #TeamfightTactics adjustments. Big highlight is the increase to Tier 2 and Tier 3 droprates. They're live right now! As always, feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much to everyone who's been trying out the beta!"

[2] "Here's today's (7/3) #TeamfightTactics micropatch. Highlight is an important bugfix for Spear of Shojin (it was generating too much mana). It's live right now! Thanks as always for the overwhelming support!"
