Riot Games appears to be course-correcting away from VALORANT’s December patch that modified Killjoy’s place within the hero shooter’s 2023 meta.
Leaks recommend a shift is within the works for the turret-wielding sentinel, doubtlessly bringing her crashing right down to a traditional agent stage. ValorLeaks shared in a March 17 put up on Twitter {that a} “Killjoy balance” is coming, and KJ mains must be involved.
This could be the second time the VALORANT agent has been tinkered with this 12 months. She was nerfed beforehand on Feb. 14, however as soon as was clearly not sufficient.
Last time round, her turret’s well being decreased from 125 to 100, and her final factors requirement elevated to eight. This time, nobody is sort of certain what the nerfs could be.
Unknown or not, nevertheless, they’re definitely coming, studies recommend.
Killjoy wasn’t the one hero that suffered by the hands of that February patch both. Raze copped an enormous blow as her bot’s period, which dropped from 10 seconds to a measly 5.
There’s no suggestion that Raze goes to be introduced again the opposite method on this subsequent replace, in response to the leaks. Really, there hasn’t been a lot data on the patch exterior of the Killjoy information, and we’re nonetheless ready on a launch date—in the event you important KJ, we’d suggest you begin grinding video games earlier than the replace arrives.
Don’t grieve although: Agents get chopped and adjusted left, proper, and middle in titles like VALORANT. Let’s simply hope, although, that she doesn’t change into like Chamber.
