Chamber isn’t the only Valorant agent getting tweaks. Riot Games is targeting almost the entire pack in the upcoming 5.12 patch update. 

Valorant’s most OP character, Chamber, recently landed under Riot’s ban hammer after months of player complaints. Now that the French Sentinel has been nerfed for good, Riot is diverting focus toward other agents. Credible leakers have dug out valuable information regarding upcoming balances, and Valorant players are shocked. 

According to ValorLeaks, most agents will be getting tweaks soon. These agents include Viper, Kay/O, Breach, Cypher, Killjoy, Sage, Skye, Harbor, Sova, Raze, Fade, Phoenix, Yoru, and Omen. 

Valorant agent changes in patch 5.12

Valorant agent Sage

Valorant’s mega patch is on the verge of release, and if you thought Chamber changes were jaw-dropping, wait until you see what Riot did to the rest. Here are all the changes leaked for each Valorant agent in patch 5.12.

These and more changes will materialize in Valorant’s mega patch 5.12. Among these, Viper and Sage nerfs are likely the most brutal. The healer can no longer patch up her wounds to the fullest, so she must play for the team. Viper, on the other hand, must think twice before stepping out of a well-earned ultimate. 

Only a few agents made it unscathed out of this patch. 5.12 will surely be a meta-shaker as it also brings Split back into the mix, so players may want to hang tight and hope for the best!
