Valorant: Champions 2026 Pick'Ems için 13.05 yaması: Duyuru, yayıncıları hedef alarak oyun oynama cezaları ve hata düzeltmeleri.

Riot Games has officially announced the patch notes for the upcoming 13.05 update, which will bring new changes to the game. The patch will fix a number of agent-related bugs, introduce penalties for players who stream snipe, allow more detailed customization of bot practice, and announce the arrival of in-game Pick'Ems ahead of the upcoming Champions 2026.

All changes in Patch 13.05

Sound Sprays

Based on previous player feedback, the developers have reduced the hearing range of sound sprays now they'll only be audible to those nearby. This was done to avoid interfering with team communication and will become the standard for all future audio sprays.

Esports

Pick'Ems are returning to the game ahead of Champions 2026. Starting September 10, the Group Stage will open, during which players can predict which teams will advance for points, with bonus points awarded for correctly guessing the exact placement. You'll also earn rewards just for participating. You can submit your Group Stage predictions until September 24.

Player Behavior

With Patch 13.05, a penalty system for the use of stream-sniping tools and instalock software will go into effect. Players caught using them will receive a temporary ban, escalating to a permanent ban for repeat offenses.

Agent Gear

With the release of the upcoming Patch 13.06 (September 22), the Agent Gear system will be reworked. Gear you've already earned won't disappear, and Kingdom Credits will still be needed to unlock new items. The main difference is that after 13.06, each item will be tied specifically to how much you play the associated Agent.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where Agent Ultimate voiceover could continue playing from an enemy's perspective even after the Agent who cast the Ultimate was killed.
• Fixed incorrect display of "Enemies Blinded" in the Combat Report for abilities that don't apply Blind.
• Fixed an issue that occasionally caused severe performance degradation when Sage or Clove resurrected a player.
• Fixed a situation where smoke continued to block flashes even after dissipating.
• Adjusted the timing of smoke dissipation for Astra, Brimstone, Clove, Miks, and Omen – previously their smokes could continue blocking flashes and other line-of-sight-dependent abilities for a time even while dissipating.

Chamber

• Fixed a performance drop the first time Headhunter was equipped, aimed, or fired during a round.

Cypher

• Fixed an issue where Trapwire's debuff could persist indefinitely on a new target if the original target was killed just before the trap triggered.
• Fixed a situation where Cyber Cage could incorrectly block flashes, detection, and other line-of-sight-dependent abilities.

Deadlock

• Fixed a brief incorrect VFX display on screen when casting GravNet.

Fade

• Fixed the missing danger indicator for Seize toward enemies in certain locations on Lotus.

KAY/O

• Fixed a client-side framerate drop with each NULL/cmd pulse.

Omen

• Fixed a situation where Dark Cover could obstruct a player's vision even after the smoke had dissipated.

Sage

• Fixed missing tooltips for the Healing Orb ability in the HUD when equipping it.

Waylay

• Fixed an issue where vision-blocking abilities could prevent Saturate from applying Hinder to players within its area of effect.
• Fixed a situation where Refract could leave "snapshots" of dynamic map objects visible after the ability ended.
• Fixed Hinder from Saturate applying to Agents while they were intangible.

General Updates

The Range practice mode now lets you choose the number of bots 10, 5, or 1 adjustable in the settings. The default bot count is now 5 instead of the previous value.

Patch 13.05 launches in Valorant today, September 1, in the American region, and on the morning of September 2 in Europe and other regions.
