Octopi had a 2nd server - when there was a update they would pick random players to play on that server and test the new runes
you could look at only the runes in a bg in manager if you wished to and the game would not let you play a bg after a update if you didn't reset it
Decay was good. Venger was very good. Wretched witches were limited and then one day they changed them all to leg. That was really messed up. Ping on mind thief creeper. Highway lock and ghoul were zombies. Fw had a bunch of paladins. Fw heroes used to be good. Now they are all 6 spd trash. Xulos is ok I guess.
