VALORANT PATCH 11.00: Agent Changes
Several agents received notable changes. Waylay gets buffs to her Refract and Lightspeed abilities, making them faster and smoother to improve her engagement flow. Her Saturate ability now has a quicker windup and increased size to justify its cost.
Reyna’s Leer is now less tanky (HP decreased from 100 to 80), with added audio and visual feedback when hit. To allow for more counterplay, Neon’s Relay Bolt and Phoenix’s Curveball both have increased windup times (from 0.8s to 1.0s and 0.5s to 0.6s respectively).
Clarity and consistency improvements were made for several agents:
- Breach’s Aftershock visuals are quicker and less obstructive.
- Sova’s Recon Bolt and Owl Drone have improved audio cues for better tracking and awareness.
- Clove’s Pick-Me-Up visuals now clearly show when the speed boost is active.
- Killjoy’s Lockdown detain pulse delay is reduced.
- Cypher’s Spycam dart visuals are clearer.
- Omen’s Dark Cover no longer plays audio for opponents within 12.5 meters.
- Brimstone’s Sky Smoke now plays cast audio for allies within 12.5 meters.
