What to Expect in Valorant Episode 9 Act 3

Valorant has launched their new Act for Episode 9. Act 3 comes with a new battle pass, map and agent changes, as well as a new premium bundle.

New Agent Change

Episode 9 of Act 3 will come with some changes to some fan-favorite agents to balance them out in your matches. Here are all the agents who have received changes in the new law.

gecko

Gekko has received changes to his overall abilities. Firstly, this game has made adjustments to provide pressure in retrieving Gekko’s Globule, reducing the time from 20 seconds to 15. Not only that, the time to get back his Globule will increase from 1 second to 1.5.

Another change that occurs to Gekko is that his signature ability Dizzy will be active for 1 second, not 1.5 after being thrown. The game also changed Dizzy’s targeting algorithm to be more reliable, and goop flash will also blind affected players’ minimaps.

Additionally, Wingman will get an increase in his concussion area, from 45 degrees to 65. When Wingman turns into a Globule after planting a Spike, the game has created a unique visual for him. Lastly, Ultimate Thrash Points will increase from 7 to 8.

Yoru

Yoru will also get significant changes to his Fakeout clone. Previously, various abilities did not show their effect on clones, making it easier to distinguish clones from real Yoru. Here are some of the abilities that will now affect Fakeout Yoru clones.

  • Blind abilities such as Vyse’s Arc Rose and Gekko’s Dizzy.
  • Vyse’s voice channel, which informs the player that he has blinded the enemy, will work on the clone.
  • Neural Cypher Heist will now show clone locations.
  • Clove’s Meddle will show the effects of rot on clones.

Jett’s Tailwind and Skye’s Trailblazer will receive minor changes in Ascent. This ability will now break through windows and continue its movement to the other side instead of stopping there.

New Sunset Map Update

Valorant has revamped the Sunset B site and reworked it to address its defenses. Changes were made to B Main, B Main Exterior, B Site, B Site Rear, B Boba, and Mid Courtyard.
