The long-awaited Yoru rework is finally taking shape and Riot Games has decided to fully unveil everything new the Japanese duelist will boast once the update drops. <\/p>\n

A staple of uselessness, Yoru’s kit always felt exciting to try out on paper. In practice, however, the story was vastly different, as his utility was simply not quite as impactful as other duelists in the game, especially after the release of Neon.<\/p>\n

Less reliable flashes than Reyna or Skye (who isn’t even a duelist) or a Gatecrash that required big set plays to work unless it was simply used as an escape tool. If that wasn’t enough, an Ultimate ability that was ineffective at scouting without being detected, Yoru is the definition of undercooked. <\/p>\n

Of course, as it’s been teased for months, all that’s about to change soon, with the developers showcasing all the changes that might help Yoru escape the bottom of everyone’s Valorant agent tier list. <\/p>\n

According to Ryan “Rycoux” Cousart, game\/character designer, Yoru’s rework is aimed at making him more viable without the need for “conditioning opponents.”<\/p>\n

“In short, the aim is for Yoru to have better tools to trick opponents, a stronger baseline value across his kit, and higher impact per round.”<\/p>\n

Without further ado, here’s what Yoru 2.0 looks like:<\/p>\n
