Valorant Act II Changes: Killjoy Agent, Glitchpop skins and more

So the first episode of Valorant has come to an end. We had a great time playing Act one that gave us new champion Reyna, new map Ascent and even first legendary skins Elderflame. Such a great start might have an even better continuation. Today we will talk about new Valorant agent Killjoy, Act II, Glitchpop skins and other details.

New Agent: Killjoy

We have already written some leaks that contained information about Killjoy. So now we are excited that she is officially added into the game. Killjoy has an awesome set of abilities that will help you play a safe game. Let’s have a better look at them.

AlarmBot

You equip and deploy a robot that will hit and explode next to the enemy that entered its range. That will give you a chance to kill him fast as AlarmBot will also make the enemy temporarily vulnerable to double damage from all sources.

Turret

This Turret is can fire enemies within its 180 degree cone. That makes Killjoy not only an aggressive but also a good solo agent. You will have a lot of time to wait for your teammates as your Turret and AlarmBot will help you control the area.

Nanoswarm

A quite grenade that you can activate to deal a lot of damage to the enemy agent. This ability cannot be recalled. Turret ad AlarmBot can be recalled by holding equip button, but grenade is not.

Lockdown

With perfect timing, you will make Lockdown your greatest strength. It detains all enemies caught in its radius for about 8 seconds. And with such great control, you will make the game work for you.
