Regarding how you're spending time, in League Of Legends, 80% of the time you're using different abilities that are all unique to your hero. In Valorant, 80% of your time is with your gun out, which is not unique to your character. So there's a much smaller portion of time that you're using the distinct Agent abilities. From that perspective, I think it gives us constraints, but not too m

Thanks to the changes in crit damage, Aphelios cannot dish out massive damage until late game. Aphelios now struggles against all of the game's newfound engage and burst, and he does practically nothing to tanks until he builds Kraken Slayer and Runaan's Hurricane-which would be fine if they didn't cost over 3,000 gold e

Thanks to Mythic Items like Night Harvestor Autobattler moba and Hextech Rocketbelt, Corki can no longer deal with snowball champions, and he can easily get one-shotted by assassins even if he gets fed and earns a substantial gold l

By doing away with the character entirely, Riot could come down on the right side of this. Instead of sticking their fingers in their ears and pretending there isn't a problem, this is an opportunity for the company to show it actually cares about its players. It's an opportunity for them to forgo a few million on top of their billions, and to actually help soothe harm done to a real person. It's also an opportunity for them to retire their abhorrent marketing strategy for Seraphine, which would do a lot to garner goodwill and help win back people they might have alienated. Sure, it's the path of least profit, meaning that they likely won't do any of this. However, from the perspective of moral imperative, it's the only right course of action to t

On the other hand, 2 champions were finally reworked after winning the community vote back in 2019: Fiddlesticks and Volibear. Both characters were chosen by players for a visual update because their concepts didn't fit in the game's ever-evolving lore. To that end, Fiddlesticks was transformed into a primordial demon disguised as a scarecrow while Volibear was redesigned as the Freljord demigod he was always meant to be. Even though details were changed, the thematic is still there and instantly recognizable by veteran play

Of course, this is far from the only problem with Seraphine. The character came under fire last month, when her lore made her an active beneficiary of in-world genocide . That was only a small part of the outrage, however, as the real focus was on Seraphine's disturbing Twitter account . The branded account tweeted like it had feelings, trying to play up the character's interpersonal struggles and lack of self-confidence like a cutesy marketing point. It was pretty gross, to say the very least, and hit a sour note during a time when everyone is suffering through a global pande

Three new missions every day

Each mission gives you more Steps and Blue Motes . So if you're vigilant, you'll be racking up in-game currency rapidly. These missions refresh every day, so, by the end of the event, you'll be rolling in dough to customize and unlock future charact

While Season 10 wasn't perfect, it brought plenty of positive changes and laid the foundation for future improvements Riot Games will continue to make. For now, players should have received their end of Season 10 rewards and can take a well-deserved break from solo queue. Otherwise, the preseason has drastically shaken up the item system and experimenting now could lead to early ranked success when Season 11 officially begins in Janu

Find her in Freljord

Lulu fans can rejoice as she has not only been added to the game, but her move set appears to have remained intact. She's been deemed the protagonist of the trailer, so you can be sure that the team has given her some extra special attent

Meanwhile, her Howling Gale (S1) creates a storm that increases in size that deals damage and knockdown to enemies. Additionally, her Eye of the Storm (S3) gives allies a temporary shield that boosts their defense and attack damage. Lastly, Monsoon (Ult) unleashes a storm around Jana that pushes enemies away while healing nearby all

The other thing we like to consider when creating Agents is how accessible they are. Some characters are a little bit easier, at least in terms of how obvious their abilities are to use. I think Killjoy tends to lean slightly closer to a beginner-friendly Agent once you set up her stuff. You can rely on a lot of her abilities and quickly understand, "hey, people might come through this chokepoint, I should probably put down my stuff that damages people watching the choke point." When you first start playing Valorant, it's a pretty easy toolkit to understand. At least opposed to one of the more complex characters like Viper or Reyna. They require a ton of knowledge to utilize effectively. It sounds like with your friend, or anyone who's getting started with tactical shooters, Killjoy was a character they could quickly pick up and be successful w
