I preordered Reforged this summer and know what? I wasn’t included in beta! “Okay” - I thought to myself - “only chosen ones are gained the access.” The funniest thing is that today I have opened battlenet to check discounts. And I have noticed that on the Reforged page it was stated that for preordering even the basic edition you will be 100% granted with beta access. Needless to say that up till now there is neither an invitation nor an option in Battlnet for me to download the beta. Of course I signed my profile for beta long ago.
It is fine. I never get any of these invitations to closed beta but it is sad that it seems that everyone enjoys it except me.

Same here, stantard version still no beta.
You need to buy the Spoils of War Edition in order to access the game it was set up that way that how preorder works
Well I have just checked it once again in the blizzstore and it is said that even for the standard edition the access to the beta will be granted

And you believe it was a lie you preorder a game and you get a middle finger in the end
I also thought that i didn’t have the beta but if you look above the play button in your battle.net client it says warcraft 3, you can press it and change to warcraft 3 reforged beta. Couple of my friends did not notice it until i pointed it out so mabey this is the case for you too? Just want to point out i did not get an invite to my email

No, I don’t want to point at smbd as there is obviously some kind of a mistake. Also just about a couple of minutes ago I have watched a video about how to actually get the beta for those like me. The guy in the video got a refund and then just purchased standard edition again. Voila! After that he had a switcher for W3:R beta
There was clearly some sort of issue that messed up preorder access for some and it doesn’t seem like they care at this point as it’s been weeks and they still say it’s being granted “in waves” even though everyone knows at this point that new preorders grant instant access.
I’ve been having this problem, as have some other people, there’ are several other threads on the same topic:
Send a ticket to support, as you can see from the last couple of posts in the two threads I’ve linked it is an error and support should be able to help you.
There was a ‘solution’ that popped up if you tried to send a ticket to support about beta access that said not to bother as they couldn’t help, if that is still happening you should be able to get around it like I did, see this post;
I have the spoils of war edition no beta access for me…
I’ve just started downloading it, so it’s worked for me 
Try what I said in the posts above.
If you got windows 8 or 10, U wont even be able to play the game. Or mac.
Beta first => Spoil of war, later standard edition.
Spoils of war here and still no beta access. Reaching out to support, if nothing happens in 24h, I will probably refund and rebuy as that seems to work for people…
You are right, didn’t see it, but its working! Everyone complaining should try that 
Thank you !
