Valorant: Night Market returns on May 19

Valorant had brought to the community the first-ever Night Market in their v1.14 patch with an aim to provide the players with weapons at a discounted rate. 

According to esteemed data-miner ValorLeaks on Twitter, Night Market is set to return on May 19 and will run till the 1st of June. This will be the first Night Market of the recently deployed Episode 4 Act 3 patch update.

As we all know, new skin line bundles sometimes cost you a bomb, and here is where the Night Market comes into action. The latter allows you to get either Prime, Deluxe, or other grade weapons at a slightly lower price than their original. Do note: An entire bundle will never be put up on a hefty discount but only a single skin from that specific bundle would be. You’re blessed with a total of six weapon skin cards that can be revealed once flipped. 

Earlier, the Night Market saw the developers tune it with Bad luck protection which would guarantee you some exciting offers. Also, once you flip your cards, you won’t get more than two skins of the same weapon.

The only way you can refresh your weapon skin cards is if you purchase the currently available choices. You have 12 more days left to redeem all of the six offers and as mentioned above, after every purchase, there’s always a new offer exclusively waiting for you.

While the Night Market is basically a shot in the dark, Riot has promised to optimize it in a way that it remains fairly random while catering to everyone’s needs. Skins in VALORANT have been commended for their inventive fine art and players of all titles regard the exertion and detail put into VALORANT skins and for this exact reason, any update related to skins will be something on the better side.

Valorant Titanmail Bundle: Prices, and Release date and time

Valorant, Riot’s FPS, has been a resounding success since its release in 2020, thanks to its unique blend of tactical shooting mechanics and ability-based gameplay along with a wide selection of incredible-looking cosmetics that entice the player-base to grind the game out.

Dataminers on Twitter have managed to dig up the upcoming Valorant skin bundle ahead of its actual release, and fans are excited to know more about what skins the Titanmail bundle will offer.

This new skin collection will feature five weapons along with a Mace-themed knife, the likes of which resemble any champions storyline from a variety of fictional movies and other television content.

The Titanmail Bundle will have the following weapons alongside a Katana-themed Melee knife.

  • Frenzy
  • Ares
  • Bucky
  • Vandal
  • Mace themed Melee Knife
Valorant Titanmail

The Titanmail bundle will most probably replace the second iteration of the RGX 11z Pro weapon skin bundle which currently sits on the market and will headline the second bundle of the Episode 4 Act 3.

For now, the bundle has neither been confirmed by Riot Games nor the pricing has been determined but based upon a plethora of leaks across Twitter, the Titanmail bundle should cost you around 5100 Valorant Points. 

Ahead of the leaks, YouTuber “Rem” posted a video, flexing the weapons of the Titanmail bundle on his channel.

Valorant Patch Notes 4.09: Chamber Nerfs, Party Lead Transfer, and More

It’s not a good day to be a Chamber main, as the dreaded nerfs to the French Sentinel will finally arrive to the live servers with the 4.09 update.

Alongside this, Valorant patch 4.09 will also bring with it a bunch of additional changes to the shooter. These changes include a quality-of-life ‘Party Lead Transfer’ feature, bug fixes, and much more.

Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming Valorant patch 4.09.

Valorant 4.09 Update: Chamber Nerfs

It goes without saying that the Chamber nerfs will be the prime focus of this update as they will certainly reduce his overall viability as a Sentinel.

“When we think about the Sentinel role, we think about its overall ability to keep map control and defend space,” the developers said in a statement. “We believe that Sentinels and Sentinel players should have many options and methods to control and defend, whether it’s through the use of Sage’s reactive slow abilities, Cypher’s flank-watching gadgets, or defensively-oriented combat and guns like Chamber.”

As we had reported earlier, patch 4.09 will see Chamber’s ‘Trademark’ count being reduced from 2 to 1, while its price will be increased from 150 to 200. The audio range of his traps will also be increased in the upcoming update.

Fnatic Adds Enzo and Alfajer to Valorant Roster Ahead of EMEA VCT Challengers Two

European esports organization Fnatic is all set for the upcoming EMEA VCT Challengers Two as they finish signing Enzo Mestari and Ali “Alfajer” Beder to their Valorant roster.

Enzo first played for Fnatic when he was brought as a stand-in for Andrey “BraveAF” Gorchakov during VCT Masters Reykjavík. Unfortunately, the org couldn’t make it past the group stages after back-to-back losses against Ninjas in Pyjamas and ZETA DIVISION.

The duo joins the Fnatic roster as replacements for BraveAF and Martin “Magnum” Peňkov. BraveAF was initially suspended from the org after leaked messages surfaced where he supposedly showed support for the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

“Alfajer is an exciting player with a huge amount of firepower and pure talent,” Fnatic head coach Jacob ‘Mini’ Harris said in a statement. “We believe he is more than capable to be one of our star players but we will be sure to ease him through that transition as he is such a young player. He has plenty of flexibility in his agent pool which bodes well for long-term success in Fnatic. We want to be able to adapt to the fast-paced meta changes we see in VALORANT and we expect that direction to only continue.”

With these new additions, the Fnatic roster for the upcoming EMEA VCT Challengers Two will contain the following players:

  • Jake “Boaster” Howlett
  • James “Mistic” Orfila
  • Nikita “Derke” Sirmitev 
  • Ali “Alfajer” Beder
  • Enzo “Enzo” Mestari

Fans will be able to see this new roster in action when they battle it out against FunPlus Phoenix on Saturday, May 14.

G2 Esports decimate Team Liquid, among others to go 1-0 up in PGL Antwerp CSGO Major 2022

G2 Esports, Astralis are among the teams to go 1-0 up on the opening day of the PGL Antwerp 2022 Major Challengers Stage.

Event Details

PGL Major Antwerp 2022
Swiss Stage Round 1 (Best of 1)
Event type: Offline, LAN.

G2 Esports Vs Team Liquid Map Veto

  • Liquid removed Nuke
  • Liquid removed Dust2
  • G2 removed Overpass
  • G2 removed Ancient
  • G2 removed Mirage
  • Liquid removed Vertigo
  • Inferno was left over

Map: Inferno (Winner: G2 Esports, Final Score: 16-6)

The match-up between G2 Esports and Team Liquid saw Aleksi “Aleksib” Virolainen and co make light work of the North Americans on Inferno. Those watching certainly raised an eyebrow upon learning that the North Americans had not banned this map, a gamble that quickly backfired as they found themselves on the back foot early on with major debutant Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov constantly adding up to the woes of Team Liquid. G2 Esports indeed easily cruised towards the lead of 9-0 until it was Nicholas “nitr0” Cannella who bagged the first for his team.

Now on the CT side, Liquid won four rounds of the half to plot a potential comeback but the Kovač brothers were able to keep the former at bay as G2 ran away with Inferno, 16-6. 

Renegades Vs forZe Map Veto

  • Renegades removed Overpass
  • Renegades removed Inferno
  • forZe removed Vertigo
  • forZe removed Ancient
  • forZe removed Mirage
  • Renegades removed Dust2
  • Nuke was left over

Map : Nuke (Winner : forZe, Final Score : 16:9)

On the B-stream, the fight between forZe and Oceanic giants Renegades was nearly a carbon copy with forZe dominating the first half on their CT side but on Nuke. Renegades looked destitute and listless although they managed to wield in their spirit to pick up 9 rounds in total before Andrey “Jerry” Mekhryakov and men clinched their first win at the Challengers stage of the PGL Antwerp Major 2022.

Match-ups for teams with a 1-0 record have been now determined by PGL and are as follows :

  • G2 Esports Vs Team Spirit \\ 21:15 PM IST
  • forZe Vs Bad News Eagles \\ 21:15 PM IST
  • ENCE Vs Outsiders \\ 23:30 PM IST
  • Astralis Vs Vitality \\ 00:45 PM IST

Astralis Decimate IHC, Imperial Humbled vs Team Spirit at PGL Antwerp Major Day 1

Astralis started their PGL Antwerp Major campaign on the right foot with an absolute stomp of Mongolian side IHC. They defeated them 16-2 on Nuke without any difficulties to go 1-0 after the first set of games.

Imperial, Brazil’s last dance roster of Fallen, fer and fnx too got humbled as they faced their first EU opposition at the major. Team spirit, despite sporting a newer, younger roster eased past the major winners, 16-6 on Dust2 to also go 1-0.

IHC and Astralis were left to play Nuke after IHC decided to remove Overpass, and it would come back to haunt them. gla1ve’s Astralis were the ones that taught the world of CSGO that Nuke T side can actually be masterminded into something more back in 2018.

IHC were taught a lesson (albeit on the CT side) in that as Astralis started on the defense. After winning the first round the Mongolllians don’t find another one for 12 rounds as Astralis put on a masterclass in defence.

The half ended 13-2 and the danes that were the favorites coming in glided past IHC 16-2 after winning 3 T rounds.

Team Spirit, who grabbed the last spot from the Europe RMR B came into the Major with all guns blazing. Young gun Patsi showed his incredible mechanical skills on the T side as he went 19-9 to help his side to 10 rounds on the T start.

After the switch, AWPer degster laid down the law with his snipers as Imperial could only find 1 T round as the Russians comfortably ended the match 16-6.

Imperial and IHC join Eternal Fire, Renegades, Liquid and Complexity in the 0-1 bracket while Astralis and Spirit advance to the 1-0 matches.
