Obviously, the two mega changes are the new Fakeout and the tweaks to his ultimate. “When looking at updating Yoru’s ultimate, we wanted to fix some of the unintended play patterns that have shown up in-game, and instead give Yoru the tools to gain ground on enemies using stealth and initiate the rest of his team to follow.” Overall, Riot Games summarized the changes by explaining in part:
Dimension Drift (Yoru’s ultimate) has the following changes:.Gatecrash – Now leaves a fake puddle to better telegraph to enemies and teammates that it was a fake.If shot, it turns to face the direction of incoming fire and explodes with a flash.
Yoru valorant full#
Fakeout – Steps are replaced with a full copy of Yoru that runs in a straight line.Now, before I go on to explain, let’s recap the key takeaways from the overview of changes revealed yesterday: On the one hand, the changes have refocused Yoru’s kit to bring him better in line with what Riot describes as a ‘stealth’ fantasy, but on the other, I’m not sure it’s going to make a scrap of difference to his pick rate or viability in the long term. Yesterday, we finally got an overview of what’s over the horizon for the unfortunate stealth assassin from the land of the rising sun, and my early impression is that it’s a mixed bag. Something had to be done, and Riot Games has been promising a rework to his utility kit for quite some time. From low to high elo, Yoru is the game’s most useless and most loathed Agent amongst the community even a single whiff of someone hovering his avatar in Agent select prompts a dodge quicker than dying to a shorty from close range. For all his good looks, cool voice lines, and a flashy kit of utility that promised oh so much when he was first showcased last year, his addition to the Valorant roster has been a total failure. This means that Yoru joined the VP after he stole the mask, thus looking out to use each agent to resolve his lineage mystery.Poor old Yoru.
It is unknown who recruited him, but he can be seen with the mask in the RETAKE cinematic. To fulfill his desire for his ancestors, Yoru joins the VALORANT Protocol as Agent 15. Another theory states that the warship noticed in Icebox actually traveled through time using the power of Radianite, landing in our world. Why are these voice mails important? They indicate that Radianite has existed way back in time, and Yoru’s family was using it. The other voice mail recalls on the same warship, finding dimensional scars left from way back in time. He explored that dimension, and while recalling it weird, he says that he heard a familiar voice, which may be another agent. While exploring it, he found a weaker, “older”, dimensional fragment and says that someone left it. In the first voice mail, he calls the warship S22. Yoru probably goes to explore there and in voice mails he sent to Brimstone, something seems off. On Icebox, a warship can be noticed that was probably in possession of Yoru’s ancestors. His lineage may be important since it shows that Radianite has existed before the First Light. His agent contract player card may even suggest that, with its name being “Unmasked Lineage”, or his samurai player card with its name “Bloodline”.
This mask is probably how Yoru uses his Dimensional Drift ultimate to travel between dimensions and reality. After his release, the container was broken with Radianite leaking and the mask stolen. Before Yoru was released, a samurai armor was spotted being kept in a container with a mask. The first important event here is the Kingdom’s corporation making experiments and keeping secrets of Yoru’s ancestors. Yoru is in search of his ancestors, and his truth may lie on Icebox, as seen in this voice line, and tons of in-game details: "There are more answers here. His story may have a deeper meaning in Valorant’s lore overall. Yoru’s backstory revolves around the map Icebox and his samurai ancestors. What’s even more special is that for this Valorant agent, the mask may hold more importance than one may think at first sight. Putting his mask on for his ultimate Dimensional Drift to jump out of reality, and tricking the enemy with a fake footstep is Yoru’s gameplay style.
