Valorant Patch 1.09 needs to have significant changes to the meta to shake things up for the community. With Raze and Sage nerfed, what comes next for the popular first-person shooter and will it be enough?

Here are three changes we'd like to see for Valorant Patch 1.09.

Valorant Patch 1.09: 3 Changes We'd Like to See

1. Operator Nerfs

The Operator continues to be one of the best guns in the game, especially in high ELO. The more skilled players are, the less they miss with the lethal sniper. Developers are balancing on a type rope with the Operator as they strive to make adjustments that minimize the impact but also keep its identity intact. Perhaps adding more recoil or changes in mobility could help to balance the overpowered gun.

2. Time for Raze to Breathe

Raze and Sage have been two of the more heavily nerfed champs due to their game-changing abilities. However, it is important that they are not overadjusted. In the past few patches, either Sage or Raze have been changed in some way. With the changes to the Blast pack in the Valorant Patch 1.08, developers should allow Raze to breathe.

3. Jett Mobility Adjustment

Jett players who use the Operator have become a menace. With Jett's abilities, players are able to gain new angles that other champs cannot achieve. Overall, her movement is unparalleled and while it is not as taken advantage of in the low elo, the mobility could turn the tide of a game in higher elos.
