Update Valorant Patch 1.11, Introduce Agent 'Skye'

Update Valorant Patch 1.11, Introduce Agent ‘Skye’ – Riot Games launches update valorant patch 1.11. The following is complete information regarding the Valorant 1.11 update.

In this Valorant 1.11 update, Riot Games brings many updates and bug fixes. But the most interesting thing about this update is the presence of a new agent named Skye.

Previously, the launch of the Skye agent was delayed because Riot was focusing on developing their newest map, Icebox.

Game Mode Update

The “Play On All Rounds” option is now available in the custom game lobby options. Keep Playing All Rounds makes it easy to play practice sessions. When activated, the match no longer ends when a team achieves 13 wins; otherwise, the match will continue until both teams have each played half of the 12 innings. After 24 rounds, the team that wins more rounds wins. If a tie, the game will continue with extra time.

Game System Update

Update on Economic Rules

Attackers who lose, but survive throughout the round without placing Spike receive fewer credits (1,000)
Lost defense, but survives the entire round after Spike explodes also receives less credit (1,000)
Dying because of Spike no longer counts as a death in KDA stats.
Additional economic information is added as a caption when hovering over the exclamation mark next to “Next Round Min” in the shop

Other Changes

Minor fixes to the observer flash indicator
New setting for observers: ‘Show Player’s Key Bind on Map’
New Custom Game Option: ‘Play All Rounds’. Both teams played all 12 innings on offense and defense, followed by extra time/end of game (if applicable).

Game Performance Update

The left-handed display model can now be used by players. Players can switch their first-person view mode to left-handed by going to the settings menu and switching their viewing mode to “left-handed”. Changing this setting will also display all other players as left-handed when they are observers.
Now you can send direct messages by clicking on a friend’s name in the chat without having to type their name
Players who AFK or alt-tab for more than 5 minutes will now be shown as ‘Out of place’ in the Social Panel
[BETA] Experimental Sharpening
These graphics settings were accidentally applied in the last patch, and we were about to remove them, but you guys actually asked us to keep them. So, those settings are still there, but with some defaults already set. We don’t know when we will optimize the performance, or adjust it further, so consider this an ongoing Beta.
