When will the new summoners rift be patched to NA

I can guarantee you there will not be an estimated date out until a week or so before it's release, simply due to the massive change this will bring and the fact that it has so many chances at bugs. Essentially, even if it's at 95% done, there could be a tiny hard-to-find bug that delays the entire thing by a week and a half. Besides that, I think Godkiller is on the right track. Pre-season 5 would be a good guess.

Soon(TM), just like the replays and the new client.

Jokes aside I'd guess preseason 5. It's quite the massive change and a lot of testing will be required.

I would love to hear a date estimate for when this is as well as my friends that I have been talking with. Every day we ask one another if anyone has found out any release date. :D Please do tell! Thanks in advance Riot.

I think I read something that said possibly around October this year.
