Valorant 3.06 Patch: Jett, Skye and KAY/O Updates

The Valorant 3.06 patch notes recently made their way into the meta with major changes to Jett and Skye. In the update, KAY/O was given the needed buff and adjusted to balance slightly suppressed agents. Many Valorant maps have also been tweakedto create safer areas for both attackers and defenders

Valorant 3.06 Patch Notes: Agent Updates

Jett

Jett is one of Valorant's most dominant agents. Players can take advantage of the agent's mobility and inflict significant damage to their opponents, so that they can create a cover with the Cloud of Smoke and suddenly appear in front of you. Jett's ultimate is pretty deadly in the right hands because every kill fills Jett's blades. This can be annoying for the opposing team. However, in return for Jett's power, the developers give some nerfs to the agent in  the Valorant 3.06 patch notes .

• Smoke Cloud's stacks decreased: 3 → 2
• Sharp Storm - Right click/alternate shot scores will no longer charge Jett's kunai.
• Sharp Storm - Right click/alternate shot damage has been reversed. So, the damage and damage multipliers are the same with left click.

Jett will now only have two Cloud Bursts instead of three. So you have to use your fumes both carefully and wisely because you will have to think about where it will be most beneficial for the team.

skye

In Valorant patch 3.06, some of Skye's abilities have been adjusted to be mostly buffs.

• Ability drop time increased after using Guiding Light or directing the bird: 0.5 → 0.75
• Blinding bomb detonation time increased after activating the ability: 0.25 → 0.3
• Cost of Trackers ability increased: 6 → 7

Skye's ultimate ability, Trackers, costs seven ult orbs instead of six, as it provides important information about the enemy team.

LO/O

FLASH/Memory

• Ability cast time decreased: 0.5 sec. → 0.3 sec.
• Right-click ability cooldown time decreased: 1 sec. → 0.3 sec.
• The thrown bomb will no longer make a sound.
