Announced on October 22, 2024, this patch promises to deliver substantial changes that will significantly alter gameplay. Key agents are undergoing critical adjustments, and players are eager to see how these changes will unfold.

As anticipation builds, players are poised for what could be the most transformative shift in the meta in recent times.
Changes in Valorant Patch 9.10
Enhancements for Agents
Phoenix
- Flame Wall: Phoenix's flame wall now has the ability to pass through solid barriers, enhancing his effectiveness as a duelist and broadening attack strategies for his squad during approaches.
- Heated Throw: The ability for Hot Hands has transitioned to a basic skill, and it no longer resets after achieving two eliminations. This adjustment encourages players to deploy it more wisely in each round.
- Flash Curve: Transitioning to Phoenix's distinct marker, Curveball earns one additional charge after achieving two eliminations, supporting aggressive plays with renewed flashes.
Gekko
- Thrash's Leadership (Ultimate): The point cost for Gekko’s ultimate has risen by one, presenting players with more demanding gameplay choices.
- Visibility and Partner: Although Riot has yet to disclose complete details, there will be modifications to the retrieval process for Gekko's Dizzy and Wingman.
Changes affecting sentinel agents Sage and Cypher are likewise anticipated, though specifics remain undisclosed.
Innovative Armor: Recovery Barrier
A notable addition to the game in Valorant Patch 9.10 is the Recovery Barrier, a novel armor type designed to regenerate over time.
Remaining details are sparse, but true to its name, this armor self-restores, offering players a critical advantage in turning the tide of close rounds. This regenerative capability influences not only aim duels but also introduces a strategic layer, allowing for armor recovery post-engagements.
In advance of its debut, players are poised for inventive strategies and team dynamics influenced by this armor’s regenerative potential, which is eagerly anticipated in discussions and forums.
