Forgot to post the ranked league changes from the PTR notes, anyway I gather they are live to the actual game today, along with the role overhaul and lootbox changes.

I would have loved a new map with this theme, but I'm just happy they're still supporting the game. Lots of positive changes, poking around the menu today I discovered you can buy shards with gold. My single player backlog is gonna suffer in a world where you can get any cosmetic by grinding.

Storm League
- Hero League and Team League have been merged into a single ranked queue: Storm League.
- Players must have 16 or more Heroes available and account level 50 or above to queue for Storm League.
- Additional Details
- Players can choose their preferred roles in the Ranked menu, so other team members can understand their play style.
- Players can see party members' win count under their rank badges on the Storm League queue screen.
- The starting Matchmaking Rating (MMR) in Storm League will be seeded from the player's last known Hero League or Team League MMR (whichever is greater). The resulting value will then be clamped within a certain range to reel-in outliers.
- Players will be prevented from queuing up in Storm League as a party together if their rank difference is more than 2 leagues apart.
- There is a tooltip available to indicate this.
- Exception: For players in a party of 5, any member outside the party's League spread maximum will not be counted toward matchmaking requirements.
- Exception: Players who have not yet placed are able to play with anyone.
- Leaderboards have been updated to reflect Storm League.
