League of Legends Arena has received massive updates and changes in the PBE test server. Riot will be trying out a few balance tweaks for the 2v2v2v2 game mode, which has been newly introduced to the MOBA, hoping to make things fairer for some of the champions struggling in it.
When talking about the set of updates they have introduced, the developers stated,
“We’ll be looking at data from the PBE to assess if there are any more balance outliers to hit as well. Other than that we’ll be spending the next couple days smashing as many bugs as we can.”
More changes will likely be made to the League of Legends 2v2v2v2 Arena in the coming days, and it will be interesting to see the changes that Riot looks to implement.

Hello Arena players!
We’re back from break and have a batch of balance changes coming in after observing Arena on PBE the past couple weeks.
We are grateful for all the excitement around the mode and can’t wait to have it hit live servers.
