dumbest nerfs in valo

sage's self heal
brimmy's double stimmy
skye flash
kayo flash
viper not being able to pick up her orb
viper fuel
raze nade
chamber trips
sova shock darts

brim nerf understandable, skye flash as well he was too op, same with viper fuel

aint no one want that damn agent to walk and lurk out of that damn pit for 14 seconds until he reappears like a ghost

The Skye flash one was kinda valid, but now given how diverse the meta is, they should bring back the recharge. Viper and kayo ones are also valid.

u have to be gold wdym skye flash and viper fuel

this almost looks like the best nerfs in valo list

Astra getting her 5th star removed
KJ day 1 nerf

silver 2 actually, skye not having a cooldown on her signature is crazy
viper is only viable on some maps so she was never really op

beta sage was so op

rushing site with two stimmys was fun though 😢

Ullyr [#8]

beta sage was so op

wall instantly at full health was op on pistol

Viper was fine until they cut one of the mollies and doubled the price and also made it so you can't pick up the orb

Skye nerf was maybe a little too much but it had to happen

And viper was like the highest picked agent in the game despite being inherently poor on some of the maps

Ok honestly the dumbest nerf in the game has to be the Astra suck nerf in late 2023. She wasn't even that popular at the time but her best ability that isn't her smoke got giga nerfed out of the blue anyway

jett smokes

not nerf but ares buff was stupid

Anything that was nerfed purely because of ranked imo. People knowingly play sub-optimally in ranked so it really shouldn't matter if something is only broken in ranked.

you're talking about pro play, viper was literally only played in breeze in most ranks (and icebox in higher ranks)

Who cars if someone is mid in ranked

Honestly viper in ranked was pretty strong you just would never get an opportunity to play it because usually theres instalock double duelist

Also clove is still rlly strong in ranked, do u think she deserves another nerf?

as someone who still plays viper (solo controller most games) in ranked to this day, i average 300 acs on viper with a 65% winrate in ascendant/immo lobbies, people saying she's bad in ranked just dont understand

viper was crazy good what are you talking about

I remember when abyss first came out all I did was play solo viper and won a majority of my games she's great in soloq even better if there's a second controller

i think she sucks as solo controller tho

but yeah, viper in ranked is good, its not a complicated agent at all, the only issue comes in agent select

astra nerf didnt even fix the main reason she was unfair to play against (sucking off spike)...

Sage hea, viper orb, and Skye flash not being rechargeable are the only real valid ones here tbh.
