tldr: playable, but with bugs of connecting and client dropping

Hey, so I'm in the Brazil server, and we had Clash this wednesday. It was a first day bracket only, One match, and if you won you had another one.

After picks were done, out of 10 players, 5 each team, 5 did not connect, and had to try restarting the client over and over, to connect.

After all connected, my team ended up winning (we were behind, and had lost all t1s when all connected, so I'm really happy about it).

After the first game was over, we were again stuck in client, with post match screen never loading. After a few client restarts, we were waiting for the next match, and got a message saying due to not having a opossiting team, we received a win on the second game (idk if it was like that for eveyone).

That's it, we all got an orb and other rewards.

Our goal for these tests are to validate the changes we've been working on in the last few months to make Clash a stable experience. We had a huge response in Brazil, and got way more teams than we expected, and the part of the system that failed last time went better. The bad news is, that uncovered another problem further down the line, resulting in the platform getting crushed under the load despite our efforts to stagger game starts. This is exactly why we're doing these betas so we can be better prepared for launch. If you're interested in more info, check out the thread in BR forums.

We have solid next steps to address the issues we saw in BR yesterday and we're excited for the NA test tomorrow.

I have a (kind of) related question for you regarding Clash! If we played during the first beta and have the first banner (the green one), will this Friday's Clash progress us towards the second one? I'm pretty close to the second one but it wasn't too clear whether we'd keep progressing towards it or not. Thanks!

Yes! The VP from this beta will progress the same VP track as the previous ones, so earning the next level of banners is possible.
