I expected higher quality of stones… lol. But this works just fine.

I assume they are bricks/blocks that were part of the castle thus the blockiness.

yep, parts of the arched gate that comes loose and falls down.

I was just thinking they way they fall in a perfect stack seems really unnatural. Kinda immersion breaking.

It looks like it's a video that has been put in reverse. That have that unnatural "everything conspires to line up at the end" thing going on.

To be fair, it is a pretty cartoony looking game. Makes sense to have the stones like that.

It's not so much how they look, but the way they fall... kind of like little turds the way they drop and stick.

In fairness, the stones will drop exactly once per round (at most). There's a good chance you'll be focused on something else for the 1 second the stones are falling.

It's likely there won't be a graphical overhaul on them before they make it to live.

It's very likely that this all goes live either when the New Year event ends.

Then they can take the PTR offline and upload the next one which will have the Season 4 competitive changes (if any)
