New smoke changes

They are terrible no? The amount of annoying kayo flashes right when the smoke ends will be insufferable.

What changes?

they will ✨sparkle✨ 1.5 seconds before they dissappear

good QoL update

That's a dumb update and takes away from the skill ceiling

valorant in a nutshell

bad update

I imagine its only from the outside
Its hard to believe they made it so when you are in the smoke you also can see the particles so it'l just stop people from getting caught out so much
i dont think its too bad 😁

Hard disagree, getting caught on smokes is a skill issue. If the smokes player is able to call put when his smokes are ending and get value from it, it should be rewarded.

Tldr, getting caught out is a skill issue. Having game awareness should be rewarded.

its just going to cause a lot of fewer deaths from smokes which is good all together for both attackers and defenders
I play smokes mainly and pretty much always know the time around when my smokes or enemy smokes are gonna go down
I really dont mind the update cause now I can focus other factors in the game rather than focusing on when certain smokes are gonna go down

now its gonna b the smoke fade meta similar to cs just more dummy up so ppl fs know when its fading

riot pandering to fucking 20 lifetime gaming hour normies what else is new

i suggest cs2 if you want a game with a high skill ceiling that doesnt get lowered every update to cater to casuals.

I hate this update so much just shows riot only care about casual players because this obviously is just to make people not need to think that much.

this is a shit update to pander to casual players this a fact whether you like it or not. if you can't calculate when your smoke is gonna go down you should be playing tetris or something else.

i was answering the guy above.

Who cars, it doesn't change anything if you're higher than silv

ah my bad

not really, it lower the skill floor for casual and entry barrier for newcomers, but not lowering the skill ceiling.
although i can imagine the sound cue being annoying as fuck.

Idk why guys like nukkye are complaining, it doesn't affect them in the slightest. Good changes for low elo

at the same time there is no casual players in this game
