Devblog We at Stunlock Studios have started up a devblog! The latest one was about creating the Bakko's Egg Brawl game mode. You can find it at https://blog.battlerite.com/dev-blog-010/
As we have a lot of new players here this weekend we'll highlight a couple of tools and places to keep an eye on that the community have created to enhance the Battlerite experience.
BrCalc http://brcalc.thomastuts.com/ BrCalc is a place where you can quickly get an overview over each of the champions, their abilities and Battlerites. You can also plan out and experiment with different builds and really go nuts with theorycrafting.
Battlerite Stats https://battlerite-stats.ru/ Battlerite Stats is a site where you can see the leaderboards for Battlerite. You can also view your own profile to find out winrates, stats on your own rating wins and losses and your own place on the leaderboards. You can also check the same stats for the teams you are apart of. It also allows for linking your twitch account to your Battlerite Stats account to display that you are streaming and what kind of champions you usually play. Supports both English and Russian. Battlerite Stats only contains data about the players who have been looked up by it though, so it does not contain the entire playerbase.
http://masterbattlerite.com/ Masterbattlerite functions similarly to Battlerite Stats in that you can view your own profile and stats along with the stats for your teams. It also functions as a group finder.
Battlerite (Unofficial) Discord Servers There are several unofficial discord servers for Battlerite (there is no public, official discord for Battlerite run by Stunlock Studios).
Probably the biggest discord server used by the Battlerite community. They have multiple language channels and news about Battlerite are often quickly posted by the server's moderators and tournaments are likewise announced there as well. It is also a place where you can discuss Battlerite and find other people to play with.
Battlerite Subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/BattleRite/ The main reddit for Battlerite where a variety of topics are discussed every day, videos are posted and memes are created. Developers of the game post there from time to time and threads where they have posted are handily tagged with "Developer Response".
Video Roundup We have some regularly created cool video content being uploaded every week, so we want to highlight a few of them.

This week, I have written a bit about an upcoming temporary game mode that will be patched in today, April 10th, with the patching process beginning at 15:00 CEST (9:00 AM EDT, 6:00 AM PDT). It talks a bit about what the game mode is, and how it came to be. You also get a brief look into what happened during last week here at Stunlock Studios. You can read the dev blog here.
