Gamers Advocate For Cypher Redesign That Includes Beta Powers


Valorant has been out for nearly two years, and since then Riot Games has tweaked everything from its agents to the level layout. Cypher players, meanwhile, believe the character has been all but forgotten as the game has developed.

People are urging Riot Games to find a way to strengthen Cypher in Episode 4, Act 2, which is dedicated to introducing swaths of gameplay balance to Valorant's agents and systems.

Barring the horrible Spycam gun problem, Riot might already have the solution to a great redesign concept for him hidden away in the character beta.

With his Trapwires, Cyber ​​Cage, and Spycam, Cypher can keep an eye on a wide section of the map as a sentry. It's a useful set of tools, but players think it lags behind other agents in its class.

The idea of ​​bringing his beta abilities back to the current era of Valorant was well received by Redditor 'CheeseCakeYee', who received a lot of support from other members of the community.

"Cypher was considerably better in the beta," they remarked. "And if we had this Cypher today, it could be so much better without being too OP," the narrator explains.

Cypher's powers had a few additional effects, such as his Cyber ​​Cage, which slowed anyone who entered it. Even after his death, he was able to hold the flanks with his Trapwires. Even these, however, have been nerfed and are no longer active once he leaves the tower.

Not to mention the Neural Theft ultimate, which may benefit from some quality of life tweaks to make it more useful in Valorant.
