Breach is one of Valorant’s least popular initiators, as its ability toolbox isn’t as diverse as those of other agents. The mechanical arms of the Swedish agent are capable of stunning and flashing, which can be useful depending on the situation. Breach, like the other initiators Sova, Skye, and KAY/O, isn’t very good at acquiring information in the game. As a result, his pick rate is poor, falling to 2% in Episode 3 Act 3 according to Blitz.gg.

However, they are falling behind due to changes in the meta and a lack of ability to engage in aggressive combat. Despite Riot Games’ announcement of a Yoru revamp, there have been no formal statements about Phoenix buffs. To keep up with other duelist agents, the agent needs to make improvements, with a particular focus on his ultimate ability.

Yoru’s buffs are one of the community’s most requested agent upgrades. Since his release, the Valorant duelist has had a non-viable pick rate. Many people say he isn’t a good fit for the duelist role because his talents prevent him from engaging in aggressive combat like others. Yoru, on the other hand, is effective at gathering intel, which is done by the initiating agents.
