New limited Doodle Bud bundle may be Valorant's best so far

The brand new Valorant bundle dubbed “Doodle Buds” is covered in black ink and vibrant colors, perfect for the fans of over-the-top skin bundles.

Riot Games has recently put out numerous skin bundles on minimal and dark beats. While fans love immersive backstories and themes, upbeat energy is appealing on its own. The recent Endeavor bundle drew a negative response for being “too bland” and boring, so Riot has taken things up a notch.

The upcoming Valorant skin line has slipped through the cracks, and it’s all about doodles and colors.

New Valorant skin bundle Doodle Buds revealed

As evident from the name, the Doodle Buds bundle features rough sketches of Valorant agents in a dark outline. Each agent is painted in a bright, cartoony style. A lot of agent sprays can also be spotted upon closer inspection.

That’s not all, Doodle Bud combines Riot’s two popular titles, Valorant and League of Legends. An entire weapon is dedicated to league characters who are also included in the same style. It’s easily a must-have for those who play both the games and want to flex their league experience in Valorant.

However, it’s not the agents that caught players’ eye. One of the weapons features the iconic tactifriends in Valorant that can be seen hanging across different maps. The flying pig, grenade squirrel, tactibear, plushie shark, frog, and penguin get their own Doodle Bud weapons.

These weapons will receive Doodle Bud skins:

Ares
Marshall
Phantom
Shorty
Stinger

The bundle also has its own stickers and cards featuring the characters sketched on guns.

The fandom prefers to buy skins with animations and variants to get their money’s worth. Doodle Bud will surely be a hit as it comes with an engaging animation that colors in characters as the player deals damage. No other weapon in Valorant has this type of animation, so this bundle will surely be a popular one.

How much does Valorant Doodle Bundle cost?

Riot hasn’t yet revealed the price of the brand new bundle, but it should be released in the Premium or Exclusive tier. This means, the entire collection should cost somewhere over 8,000 Valorant points.

Valorant bundle Doodle Bud release date

Doodle Bud’s exact release date is unknown, but it will likely drop on either April 13 or 14. Players will have two weeks to buy the guns before they disappear on April 27.
