It feels like it was just yesterday when we first told you that we’re working on a new map - and now we’re already on V3!

Here are the latest updates that you’ll see in V3:

- Teleporters have been reworked, and their positions on the map have been changed to allow for easier access.
- Jump pads have been adjusted to take you further into the lane - until the Tier 2 tower in that lane is destroyed.
- Offlane has been reworked: the lane is now longer, and access points have been adjusted.
- Additional Bush types have been added to help junglers or roamers sneak closer to certain areas without being revealed.
- Peeking side spots from duo lane have been removed.
- Midlane has been reworked with adjusted access points.

Thanks again for your feedback - we’re excited to see how these changes improve your experience!
