Jett and Skye hit with massive nerfs in VALORANT Patch 7.04, 9 other agents tweaked

Today isn’t a good day for Jett admirers, as Riot is set to drastically nerf VALORANT’s most adored duelist in the upcoming competitive Act. It’s not just her in the firing line—patch 7.04 also targets Skye and nine other agents, making it the hardest-hitting meta update after last year’s patch 5.12, which came with nerfs to almost the entire roster.

Patch 7.04 is focused on increasing VALORANT’s game clarity, which Riot says will be achieved by “reducing the frequency of large area of effect of ultimates, reducing the amount of time utility is active in the world, and reducing the HP of shootable utility.” The costs of multiple ultimates have also been tweaked to ensure more balance in fights.
