Valorant 10.10 Patch Notes: Full Changelog

The full set of patch notes for Valorant Update 10.10 is:

ALL PLATFORMS

AGENT UPDATES

Raze
Raze’s explosion VFX has been updated to more accurately indicate hitboxes for her Boom Bot and Paint Shells. Additionally, the visual effects will exist in the world for a shorter period of time for more gameplay clarity.

CLIENT UPDATES

Collection updates
To help streamline development between the PC and console versions of VALORANT, we’ll be making some changes to the player interfaces to create a more consistent experience across platforms. Unifying these systems means we can reduce the time spent supporting them separately and work toward delivering new features more quickly. The changes will vary in scope, and some may seem insignificant, but they will save us time and energy in the long run. To kick things off, we’re making some early changes to the Collection landing page:
Console changes:
Page for navigating to specific content types removed
All content types (including Player Card and Sprays/Flex) are now available on the Collection page, matching PC layout
Gamepad navigation system for the Collection page improved
PC changes:
Level + Chroma indicators in weapon tiles removed
Minor layout updates

COMPETITIVE UPDATES

Rank Rollback Adjustments:
For players below Radiant, we increased the cap of refunded RR you can receive within an Act. We are continuing to monitor edge cases around experiences with refunds.

MODE UPDATES

Swiftplay
Tejo
Armageddon starting points 2 >>> 3: This change was already live in 10.09 but missed in our patch notes. Ultimates at 9 points in the future will be automatically updated to scale.
Icebox will remain disabled in Deathmatch and Escalation game modes while we address spawn-related issues that emerged in patch 10.09.

BUG FIXES

Omen
Reverted a bugfix that was released in 10.08, which should fix the issue where dead allies spectating Omen could see through nearsights (most notably Viper’s ult) if Omen is using Dark Cover
Reintroduced (and still investigating) the issue where Omen could not see properly when casting Dark Cover if he was overlapping another dense smoke (smokes that obscure vision inside, e.g. Jett Cloudburst, Brimstone Sky Smoke, etc.).
Vyse
Fixed an issue where Vyse’s Arc Rose hit confirm would play when affecting non-players
Fixed an issue where Vyse could no longer use Arc Rose for the remainder of the round if it was placed too close to the spike
Deadlock
Fixed a bug where jumping could inconsistently dodge Deadlock’s net toss despite players being inside the affected area
Tejo
Fixed an issue where Astra’s concuss always affected Tejo’s stealth drone as long as the drone had line of sight to the concuss
Fixed an issue where Tejo’s rockets could get hindered by Waylay’s saturation and Convergent Paths
Yoru
Fixed an issue where Yoru’s flash visual decals would linger on walls they bounced off of
Brimstone
Fixed an issue where Brimstone’s ultimate visuals drew underneath the map

KNOWN ISSUES

Icebox will remain disabled in Deathmatch and Escalation game modes while we address spawn-related issues that emerged in patch 10.09.
