Valorant 10.06 update patch notes buffs KAY/O and more
Riot Games is rolling out Patch 10.06 for Valorant, bringing some adjustments to agents, gameplay mechanics, and performance. Check out the full patch notes below.
KAY/O headlines this update with a rework to his flash, making it more intuitive and easier to coordinate. Yoru’s Fakeout gets a price increase, and Vyse’s powerful stall abilities are being reined in to encourage more active gameplay.
Beyond agent balance, Riot is improving player behavior feedback, refining Sunset’s CPU performance, and addressing various frustrating bugs across multiple agents. From animation fixes to ability tweaks, this patch aims to smooth out some of the rough edges inValorant’s competitive experience.
Here are all the key changes in Patch 10.06, in the full patch notes fromRiot.

AGENT UPDATES
While we love that KAY/O has an engaging path to mastery, we consistently see that there is a large gap between his skill ceiling and skill floor and that gap hasn’t really improved over time. We see from both player feedback and internal statistics that his flash is the most difficult flash to coordinate with on the roster.
FLASH/DRIVE
While we’re happy that Vyse has found a place in the ecosystem since the buffs inpatch 9.11, we’ve found the durations on her abilities to be excessive in a world where her Razorvines are more threatening. We’re shortening the durations on her Razorvines and Shear so that Vyse will have to more actively capitalize rather than just relying on the baseline value of their stall.
