Valorant patch 3.12 is finally here, and it brings exciting changes for versatile players who like to swap agents.
Riot Games has finally rolled out a brand new patch, tackling the toxicity issues and adding a brand new feature for versatile players. The latest update is expected to improve game quality and rank experience in Valorant significantly.
Valorant has 17 agents, each of them having distinct powers that players must master to be a valuable part of the team. However, remembering each agent’s abilities can be challenging as the count goes up. Players have long been
requesting an agent profile feature
to help them be faster and more efficient in Valorant.
Riot Games has addressed these player concerns in the latest updates. Along with this feature, the developer has decided to punish those who grief in-game with damage-rendering abilities. Allies cannot damage each other in Valorant with any of the guns or most projectile weapons. Instead, some damaging abilities meant to be used for zone control can injure both allies and enemies.
Trolls often abuse the toolkits to grief in Valorant, but this will change. Purposely injuring teammates with Viper, Brimstone, Pheonix molotov, and other similar abilities will result in severe punishment after patch 3.12. This will likely reduce the number of trolls in ranked games.
