Brimstone and Omen are being targeted in the next VALORANT update alongside the Classic pistol. VALORANT Patch 2.00 isn’t here yet, but we’ve got some early details.
Brimstone is seeing his kit buffed in order to bring him into the fold once more while the other smoke character Omen has seen a nerf.
Brimstone will be able to get his Incendiary for 100 credits less in addition to the equip time being removed from his Stim Beacon. In terms of his Sky Smoke, he can now utilize them at a larger range (4200 -> 5000) and each smoke has an increased duration (+5 seconds).
Omen’s flashes (Paranoia) has double in price (200 -> 400) and his Dark Cover travel speed has been decreased, giving more time for players to react.
