#Valorant 2.02 patch full#
On the whole, this brings Omen’s full utility price up to a level that's more comparable with other Agents as well as making it more important to get value out of Paranoia when you cast it, so that big $400 chunk of cash isn’t wasted. Paranoia has been quite strong for a while, and rather than reduce its effectiveness and take away some of the most exciting plays Omen can make, we decided to up the cost. The projectile speed decrease here is meant to give Omen more pressure and responsiveness when smoking nearby targets, while taking a bit longer to get smokes to far away parts of the map that he isn’t actively covering. We needed to introduce some tradeoffs in exchange for the consistent pressure his recharging smokes provide. Omen’s role as a Controller is to bring consistent pressure.

In that spirit, we’ve increased the duration of his smokes and given him more flexibility in where he can position to drop smokes exactly where he wants them.

Brimstone is all about the big site execute moment. Happy New Year Brimstone players! We know you’ve been hoping for some buffs this holiday season and we have them just in time. Viper is on our radar as well, we believe she is underperforming and are looking at ways to help her out in the future.

By giving each more clear strengths, we hope to make both Agents strong in different situations. Omen and Brimstone have been in competition since beta and usually only one of them is considered viable.
