Last night, the latest update for the WarCraft III: Reforged beta test of more than 2 gigabytes was released. The patch still contains the most important and necessary updates, such as redrawing Lady Vaisha’s ears and unique animation for the female model of the Demon Hunter. And also in 2020, it suddenly turned out that the ultimate ability of the Master Blade was stolen, and not magic effects should have acted on it all this time.
