Reyna
Meanwhile, Kay/O and Skye have also been rebalanced for better fit.
As mentioned in the agent balance roadmap not too long ago, Riot is working on tweaking the flash balls so that they show the nature of agents who own Duelist or Initiaotor more.
Void Gaze’s activation time has been reduced from 0.6s => 0.4s. Void Gaze has an infinite range, as long as it’s within enemy line of sight. Gun draw delay after casting from 0.7s => 0.5s. Duration of the eye reduced from 2.6s => 2s.
This can be considered a huge buff for Reyna as a duelist that opens more fights as gaze activation time and gun draw time decrease drastically. In particular, now Void Gaze will have an infinite influence, as long as the opponent sees the eye. This will make it easier for Reyna to control long positions like the B main area at Pearl or the middle area at Ascent.
She can jump into combat almost immediately, being more mobile, but is also required to end fights or capture choke points faster when Void Gaze lasts even without being destroyed. also only 2 seconds instead of 2.6 seconds as before.
The maximum duration of Blind Spots increased from 1.5s => 1.75s. For those affected by the flash, the 3rd person’s perspective (regardless of teammates or enemies) will be more distinct than those affected by the flash. flash, half flash, or flash is about to expire. Time to receive support after successful flash increases from 1s => 3s.
Now Yoru’s flash will be centuries long. Already one of the most difficult flash types in Valorant, now with an increased effect, and Yoru and his teammates will be easier to distinguish who is being flashed, who has dodged and only gets flashed, or who is not. near the end of flash effect for quick kill priority.
Maximum effect of Grenade/Blind when using right mouse button decreased from 2s => 1.25s. Maximum effect of Grenade/Blind when using left mouse increased from 2s => 2.25s. Delay time after flashing increased from 0.6s => 0.85s (not tested in PBE).
A massive buff for players using Kay/O to build from range and nerf with self-flashing site-style Kay/Os. Now, the “mechanical cat” will return to the position of an Initiator instead of a semi-duelist “do it yourself” as before.
Flash duration of Guide Light increased from 1.25s => 2.25s after flying for a minimum of 0.75s. Guide Light (bird) now cannot be destroyed.Drawing delay later when using flash increased from 0.75s => 0.85s (not tested in PBE).
Skye’s bird is extremely buffed if used from a distance and becomes the second longest-lasting flash in Valorant. However, at close range, Skye’s flash can’t be fully effective, which makes her, like Kay/O, difficult to take on the semi-duelist role of self-flashing semi-duelist. site more. Moreover, the time to draw the gun is also longer, which means that she will have more time to be dangerous after using the ability.
It is not known whether these buffs can improve Reyna and Yoru’s rather pitiful fate in professional tournaments, but surely at all ranks, the light harmony party in Valorant will become more and more. much more terrifying.
