New Brawl - Random Champion Duel
This new Brawl replaces the current Rocket Balloon Brawl. It will be available for matchmaking from Tuesday August 29 until Monday September 4 14:00 CEST (8:00 AM EDT / 5:00 AM PDT) then at least the following weekend from Friday September 8 at 10:00 CEST (4:00 AM EDT / 1:00 AM PDT) until Monday September 11 at 14:00 CEST (8:00 AM EDT / 5:00 AM PDT). We will update you on its future availability as we move forward.
