Few minor tweaks to Bard Bard today. Color adjusted a bit (golds, belt) and  there's his cuff changed.

PBE LCUA Issues - Read if you've patched alpha since 4pm PDT Nov 2nd

Here's Wiot Wittwock with context on recent deploy related bug for PBE LCU Alpha users that may result in them having to reinstall the PBE and LCU Alpha.
"Hello brave PBE League client update alpha players! 
Yesterday at approximately 4pm PDT, November 2nd, we applied an update to the alpha that involved some hefty architectural changes to the way we're doing patching, installation, and organizing files on your computer for League. 
Unfortunately, that update came with bugs. If you patched between then and now (5am November 3rd) your installation is likely to be in a broken state. Symptoms may include persistent crashing, failure to receive new updates, inability to install, and errors when patching. 
If you're having issues or patched during this time, I'd recommend completely deleting your PBE installation folder, then reinstalling the PBE and the PBE client alpha from these installer links: 
Alpha PBE Windows Installer / Alpha PBE Mac Installer 

If you'd like to avoid completely re-installing, you can also try the following:
1. Run "Uninstall League client alpha PBE" found in your PBE install folder.
2. ALSO delete the following folder: ...\PBE\RADS\solutions\league_client_sln 
Let me know if you're still having patching or installation issues after trying the above in the comments, or need any clarification on the above steps - I'll be lurking in this thread for the next couple days. Thanks all!"
