The new act starting on August 24 may roll in with a new map and also an agent, teased as Sprinter. Valorant Episode 3 Act 1 started on June 22 and will run till August 24.Įpisode 3 Act 1 brought a brand new agent Kay/O to the Valorant roster but players are now demanding a new map. This slight buff will help Viper mains squeeze the full juice out of her poisonous toolkit. However, it put her at a significant disadvantage as she’d mostly lose her ultimate points and HP by activating the ultimate and dying instantly. This wasn’t necessarily a bug since this is how Viper’s ultimate generally worked before the latest patch. An 8-second countdown commences if she exits the cloud prematurely.
Duration: The noxious cloud is ever-present within Viper’s domain, persisting indefinitely as long as she remains within. Windup Time: A 6-second windup precedes the ultimate’s activation. The agent will now be able to trigger gas from different angles and cover a large area without revealing her position. Ultimate Points: Viper’s Pit requires 8 ultimate points.
This will allow her to remain safe while initiating Viper’s Pit. After patch 3.01, the agent can use her crosshair to determine the starting point of her gas. Streamer and content creator Lothar discovered that Riot Games has quietly buffed Viper by tweaking her ultimate.
