Valorant Weapon & Agent Buffs & Nerfs Are Afoot As New Character Drops In

Riot Games’ competitive team-based shooter Valorant is going to be in its third Episode next week on 22nd June, starting with its first act and new Agent KAY-O. This also means the rest of the cast from Phoenix to Jett are getting buffs and nerfs.

The latest build of the game will be nerfing popular Agents like Jett and Raze, with a bit of extra pricing to their abilities (which can be bought before the start of a round). These changes are sure to shake up the meta next week. Here’s a full list (via Upcomer.com)

KAY-O (New Agent)

Speciality: Suppress enemy abilities, team support

Abilities

ZERO/point (E): Free

  • Official Tool Tip
    • EQUIP a suppression blade. FIRE to throw. The blade sticks to the first surface it hits, winds up, and suppresses anyone in the radius of the explosion.

FLASH/drive (Q): 250

  • Official Tool Tip
    • EQUIP a flash grenade. FIRE to throw. The flash grenade explodes after a short fuse, blinding anyone in line of sight.
  • Notable Mechanics
    • Right Clicking the flashbang, throws a charged flash, causing it to only have to cook for 1 second, as opposed to left click throwing a flash that cooks in 1.6 seconds.

FRAG/ment (C): 200

  • Official Tool Tip
    • EQUIP an explosive fragment. FIRE to throw. The fragment sticks to the floor and explodes multiple times, dealing near lethal damage at the center with each explosion.

NULL/cmd (X): Ultimate, 7 Points

  • Official Tool Tip
    • INSTANTLY overload with polarized radianite energy that empowers KAY/O and causes large energy pulses to emit from his location. Enemies hit with these pulses are suppressed for a short duration.
  • Notable Mechanics
