The Valorant player community has great affection for the Valorant competitive scene, especially for its great excitement in battles, from which the performance of some agents has been reduced, so today we will show you the adjustments that are made for Valorant Patch 4.09.
Something that seems quite curious to us is that one of the most used agents in the entire face-to-face VCT Masters in Iceland was Chamber, who was present in 44% of the matches, counting a total of 76 matches in the tournament. In fact, he was only behind Jett, Viper and Sova and has been confirmed as a character more than present in the meta, so Riot Games has decided to nerf his power through one of his abilities. .
The change will come in your C – Trademark, ability with which he can place traps and track his enemies, reducing his utility power and the ability to help his team. We also review the rest of the patch notes below.
