VALORANT 7.07 patch notes highlights
As always, you can read the patch notes in their entirety on the official VALORANT website. We've got the most impactful parts of the VALORANT 7.07 patch notes for you below:
Competitive update
- Reverted rank restriction implemented with the VALORANT 7.06 patch notes
Riot made it so Ascendant ranked players could only invite Platinum ranked or higher players to their parties. This was to prevent rank boosting. They have gone back on that decision, as stated in the VALORANT 7.07 patch notes.
Their reasoning is community feedback. Riot Games wants players to have flexibility with their 5 stacks. They still intend on targeting rank boosting as it is a danger to competitive integrity. It will just require some more work.
Map update
- Updated the destruction VFX for destructible door panels located at Garage on Haven in order to make it easier to see through as it falls away
Agent fixes
- Cypher's Neural Theft now completes even if he dies after casting
- Fixed an issue where you could remain blinded if spectating a flash through Cypher’s Spycam (E) as the round ended
- Gekko's enemy detection range for Dizzy is now correctly reduced while inside of Viper’s Pit
Premier fixes
- Fixed an issue where the Attacker team takes priority over the Defender team in the Overtime vote
- Fixed a bug where a second timer bar would appear after the Choose Side vote had already ended
- Fixed a bug where certain scenarios would cause subsequent Overtime Priority votes to occur in the following round
