Riot Games has officially introduced the Valorant 6.06 update and it is now live on the server.
Valorant players have rapidly embraced Gekko as a top pick, prompting Riot Games to focus on maintaining balance for the newest initiator added to the game. This was evident in Patch 6.06, where the latest agent was the center of attention. One notable change implemented by the developers was a reduction in the damage dealt by Gekko’s Mosh Pit ability to objects, as it was found to be performing inconsistently.
Without wasting time, let’s check out the Valorant update 6.06 patch notes.
