There's more than just one added to the Chamber with the latest VALORANT patch update 8.03.
The latest VALORANT patch update 8.03 was released a couple of days ago with a small buff added to Chamber alongside the introduction of the VCT 2024 team skin bundles. Patch 8.03 also brought about bug fixes and other updates to the game as it gets into the deep end of the VCT 2024 Kickoff across the four major regions.
Ever since he got hard nerfed back in patch 5.12 during the 2022 off-season, Chamber has not been seen as a viable meta pick these days. He has only been picked in three games ever since the start of the VCT 2024 season with T1 playing him twice during the group stage while 100 Thieves lost with Chamber in their first of three games in the deciding series against Sentinels.
Chamber - Update
Headhunter (Q)
- Price decreased 150 >>> 100
Tour De Force (X)
- Firing rate increased 0.7 >>> 0.9
VCT 2024 Team Capsules
Speaking of the VCT 2024 season, you can now head over to the updated Esports Hub to check out the all-new VALORANT Champions Tour 2024 Team Capsules as a way to directly show your love and support for your favourite team. There are a total of 33 team capsules to represent each org that is part of the VCT 2024 season, which started with the Kickoff.
What's great about the team capsules is that 50 per cent of the profits from each team's collection will be redistributed back towards them. This could help plenty of organisations that are currently struggling financially with a new expected stream of revenue, given the game's popularity right now as well as this being just the start of the VCT 2024 season.
Each capsule will feature a Classic skin with an augmented reality inspect animation as well as unique audio and visual effects. Of course, you can expect a spray and a gun buddy alongside a player card that each team helped to co-create. Each team capsule will cost 2,340 VALORANT Points, though prices may vary depending on your region
With the 33 team capsules now available on the Esports Hub, it only encompasses orgs from the VCT Americas, Pacific, and EMEA respectively. VCT China will only be added into the game in the month of May to coincide with the second international event of the year, Masters Shanghai.
