Valorant Yoru Rework Leak

According to HIITSCAN, a popular Valorant leaker has recently talked about the upcoming changes to happen for the duelist who had almost been shunned out of the meta. Yoru has a shocking pick rate of 8.9% by pro-Valorant players in tournaments, despite being a duelist with self-sufficient flashes and a teleport.

While Yoru had become one of the weakest agents in Valorant following several small nerfs that followed throughout the patches after his launch in the game, RIOT has been trying to restore the game balance and improve the duelist.

“We’ve learned that in addition to our duelists needing to offer something unique to the field, they also need to have a strong baseline value that any team at any round can rely on in order to maintain strong viability on any team composition,” Riot said earlier.

The changes to come for Yoru are as follows:

• NO change to flash

Gatecrash

• Gatecrash is going to lower the range at which the enemies could see and hear the tether that is thrown out the travelspeed is 20 faster and euro can now activate the gate crash tethers the devs call it to trigger a fake teleport.
• Devs have added in a little puddle effect to the fake teleport.

Fakeout

• Instead of steps, Fakeout is now a full copy of Yoru. He appears as blue to teammates and normal enemy Yoru to enemies.
• When the copy is shot, it flashes the enemy.

Dimensional Drift

• Yoru is no longer revealed to enemies.
• Yoru is able to cast all abilities while in ultimate.
• Nearsight is removed.
• Enemies can hear his footsteps.
• Weapon equip time is increased after ultimate.
• Cast delay added when casting ultimate.

The fifth Duelist in Valorant hasn’t quite lived up to expectations. Ever since Yoru landed on the live servers, he’s been an extremely niche pick both online and in the highest levels of competition. The meta might change soon.
