BETA KEYS ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE, SEE LINK BELOW

This game is starting to gain some traction now, and couldnt find anything on it so here's the thread.

Dawngate official site: http://www.waystonegames.com/#/home
Official Twitch Steam: http://www.twitch.tv/waystonegames

Basic Information:
Dawngate is a new MOBO created by Waystone games under EA. As some sort of comparison for those familar with MOBAs, it fits between LoL and DOTA mechanics.
Like most MOBAs the game revolves around a group of 5 heroes (called Shapers) defending a set of towers and cores against another group of 5.
This is helped by minions who spawn at regular intervals throughout the game. The game flow is generally controlled by these towers and core availability, the less towers/cores a team has the harder the game becomes for them.
Each shaper has their own unique abilities and play style making games unique.

Deeper Analysis for those familiar with MOBAs:
* Free ward for each character
* 5 item slots (typical health, MR, damage etc items with buy chains)
* 3 spellbook slots (upon gaining certain levels able to learn blinks, CC breaks, shields etc)
* At present the meta is 2 lanes + jungler
* Game currently suffers from severe snowball problems.
* Not all champs available at the start, takes about 5 games to earn a champ at the moment.

Current Game State:
Currently in private beta and is not due to be released until 2014 at the earliest.
NA servers only at present (Though EU lag is really not that bad)
Testing mechanics of the game , not service infrastructure.
Reporting recently implemented, and matchmaking reworked.
Origin NOT currently required for install or play.

Where can I sign up:
Beta access via the official site, though roll out is currently slow as you would expect.
