Valorant’s Bind Changes: All You Need to Know

Riot Games have announced that Bind will be returning to the Competitive pool after undergoing several major revamps. 

Earlier in January, Bind and Breeze were ruled out of the game’s Competitive and Unrated map rotations. Although they never provided specific details on the exact cause of these issues, it is believed that they were related to lag or FPS drops during certain parts of matches.

This was the case when players were in some regions of any map. These problems in a first-person shooter game are incredibly detrimental to gameplay, so removing them was probably the best solution to ensure a smooth player experience.

Both the A and B sites will undergo several structural alterations, but the A site is receiving a much more extensive makeover than B. 

The A teleporter room is being moved from its current isolated position to a new, more convenient location adjacent to the A shower entrance.

Even the A site is receiving a makeover, with a new triple box layout replacing the three even squares in the site’s center with an elongated section. With this new triple, defenders and attackers alike will have more room to maneuver when attempting to secure the site or defend a plant.

The site’s walls are also being adjusted as per the developers, with the back wall being flattened to accommodate heaven’s point of entrance and a new sneak-up spot for defenders being added to the side wall.

Players who assault from above no longer have to worry about being ambushed by enemies who have been hiding in the back cubby since its removal.

However, the B site’s entrance from the defender’s spawn is set to be slightly widened, and a new vent hole is introduced if the team on the retake would ever to hurl a flash or a molly.
