Greetings, companions of Edain!
Today we released patch 4.5.2 for the Edain. You can download it by using the update-function in your Edain Launcher. The main purpose of the patch is not to add new features, but to fix some important bugs and also improve the balance for the tournament. Hence (beside bugs) it also does not change too many things so players won't have to relearn the whole game.
We want to give players the best and fairest game experience for the next couple of weeks. In addition there are some changes to the horde maps (for the people who don't play on the tournament).
If you want to watch the tournament games, you can find all rules here (https://modding-union.com/index.php/topic,35987.0.html) and all the schedules, livestreams and other informations here (https://modding-union.com/index.php/topic,36053.0.html)
Most games will be streamed live and/or uploaded as a VOD. We, as team members, will most likely also be found in the chat of some games or even as commentators for some matches.
We wish all players good luck and a lot of fun in this tournament! We are excited to see how the strongest strategies crystallize throughout the tournament.
