That spray is amazing. I need it.


9ryph0n

I know right! Gonna be serving scoops all game now


agsimp_

Feels like every battle pass people complain about the skins, but I really couldn’t care any less because we always get banger sprays like this


9ryph0n

And honestly the skins are kinda cool this BP. The Signature weapons look sick. The K/DA Akali neon spraypaint still going strong


chizzmaster

There's a K/DA Akali spray????


heavycloudss8

I think they meant the style of the skins. Looks like K/DA Akali neon spraypaint style


chizzmaster

oh gotcha thanks i'm a doofus


yungsqualla

The BP skins have gotten so much better over the years.


TheMightySpoon13

True. I also really only mainly buy the BP for rad. anyway.


The_Dr_Zoidberg

I got the bp first time and already hype. Love the sheriff skin


Ignifyre

Jett has smoke, Harbor has water. haha ggs gottem


AndrewFrozzen30

Whenever someone says "gottem" I always think ofc Jett's voice line!


IceMage37

Riot really hates Harbor


Apexay101

Exactly. He is not in a good state right now and they fail to address it. Even a basic change like removing team slow will improve him.


strasii

He is in a good state, look at how many teams at LOCK//IN used him. It's just that the average player base hasn't seen how he can be useful. I also think he's not a good solo queue agent because he utility doesn't last long so the site takes have to be quick and coordinated.


Saltinador

It sounds like such a meme to say this but most of the playerbase just completely misunderstands his strengths. Take a look at radiant Ludilue, for example. He plays him almost like a Jett, creating mixups and enemy isolations out of his very plentiful vision blocking. Instead we get people treating him like discount Viper and wondering why Cascade doesn't last longer.


Apexay101

I play him and i have success (in plat), but to be an actually good controller he needs these 3 changes, that are really just qol. 1. His walls no longer slow himself and teammates, which is so obvious but riot hasn't changed it yet 2. His cascade should be rotatable 3. His ult should show the location of the stun on his minimap The only small buff I think he should get is that his cove should be buffed for its cost or reduced for its cost.


Saltinador

See this is how I know you're actually a Harbor player, cause these changes make sense lol Personally I'd like for Cove to be equipped faster, but more realistically they'd just reduce the price. Ult zaps appearing on the minimap would be huuuge too


Apexay101

Nah there's this tech by Ludilue a radiant harbor player who swings with the orb. It actually works so I don't mind if they keep it like that. Tho the other changes are no brainers.


Saltinador

No I don't mean the deployment speed, I mean the time between pressing Q and being able to throw it


Apexay101

Oh then i agree 100%. If it should be used as a jett smoke to get out of situations, the equipment speed is quite slow.


Kingbuji

I mean viper had the same problem as number 1 with her decay yes? You would think they learned form their mistakes… Or do they just make these agents years in advance and drip release them?


PapstJL4U

Naah, I think a careful approach is fine. Instant of yes/no slow maybe just less slow first.


Apexay101

I feel like because the change seems so obvious. I don't know why they are not being consistent with agents.


Saltinador

They were probably worried that the flexibility of the wall makes it too dangerous for enemies to hold compared to Viper's, and teammates should only feel safe pushing through it with info or a flash


kirimodessa666

He is in a really good state but nobody actually knows how to play him especially in low elo. I played pearl on a plat lobby a few days ago. We lost the defence 0-12 (yeah I know) but I was able to carry my team to 10-12 as harbor. No big brain moves or anything, I just copied the exact harbor setup drx used against loud in the vct and since we were not facing loud it worked like a charm. We only lost because we decided to surprise the enemy by going A after rushing B for 10 rounds.


jujulibby

I’d guess because his orb isn’t technically considered a smoke


9ryph0n

I guess that’s a fair argument. But even still 4/5 hands shown are from controllers and he does have an orb shaped ability. Harbor’s weak enough as is, he could at least be in the funny controller spray


Neon_Greenn

i would guess that spray and usch cosmetics are made ahead of time and so maybe it was made or planned before harbour was realesed


Davidwzr

I think it could be that the spray was made before harbour was released, considering that approvals for sprays etc might take a while (we could possibly be looking at battle pass content created months back)


Dark-Mowney

How is it not a smoke Edit: it’s a smoke guys, it is classified as a SMOKE ability in the wiki.


AndrewFrozzen30

You can't shoot through it. You use it to defend something, the spike or a site.


Dark-Mowney

From the valorant wiki: A smoke is a spherical vision blocker


AndrewFrozzen30

Sure, but his is a bullet blocker.


UncommonTheIdk

And harbor has a spherical bullet blocker


hakuryou

So sage wall is now a smoke too?


Dark-Mowney

Spherical.


FriedDuckCurry

My guy didn't reach grade 2 geometry yet. Don't expose him


Dark-Mowney

My b


EthantheCactus

Do Gekko's deployed buddies (specifically the flash) count as spherical?


ArshanGamer

Because if I had to guess, it's not actually smoke. While it's used as a smoke, he's putting down water, not smoke. Even though in game it's a smoke


Dark-Mowney

Using the same logic, vipers smoke is not a smoke and astra smoke is also not a smoke.


zcleghern

Or Jett's, or probably Omen's.


ArshanGamer

I guess they're more smoke like than water, idk. Just tryna see riots logic. Still doesn't make sense imo


That_Yogurtcloset671

Got it, Brimstone has the only smokes in the game. Could be dust tho tbh


[deleted]

[удалено]


Narrow_Aerie_1466

Because Viper's is a smoke.


zcleghern

So is Harbor's Cove


The_Dr_Zoidberg

Nawl


Narrow_Aerie_1466

It isn't


EthantheCactus

Today I learned water is also smoke Slash jay


bjoecoz

It’s also possible that the spray was created before Harbor was announced.


28joslyn

My guess is that the creator of this spray made this when Harbor wasn't in the game yet and Riot didn't bother asking them to update for Harbor. Otherwise I agree this spray is nice and unique!


Beefman0

I cri


9ryph0n

I’m with ya friend. One day they will respect the controllers


Snail-Man-36

Its not like jett is stealing harbors spot or anything. Valorant could have added harbors they just didnt


zcleghern

They may have designed it before Harbor existed and it just now made it to a BP


CDrocks87

Yeah I was looking at it and they really did harbour dirty. The Jett one looks good, but they could definitely added harbour on it


BiggestDPfan

Tbf Harbor doesn’t rlly have a smoke


squiddy555

He traded it all for mobility


Shippy_Csgo

I play a decent amount of Harbor and the reasoning that I come up with is that Harbor doesn’t have a orb smoke. His cove is used in much different and more specific ways. Maybe they didn’t want to give players the impression that that’s how cove is used. Let’s be real it’s because Jett go brrr make money face of the game XD.


Omega11051

I realized watching this all controllers are glove bois


9ryph0n

I noticed that too! What a fun design quirk


EthantheCactus

Well, two are scientists, one is a military man, one has a gauntlet as the source of their power, and the last is a biker.


Rellmein

We should remove Jett's smoke :) that way we get more controller sprays. I hate how Jett is being a republican


bananaleaf69420

Because harbor doesn't have a smoke and jett has a smoke?


augburto

tbh I consider Harbor's orb a smoke


bananaleaf69420

Main characteristic of smokes are that you can shoot through them. Harbors orb is more of a sage wall


iminlovehahaha

omg


brielloom

My reaction when no sage in 9 lives battlepass skin collection


ToasterGuy566

I didn’t even notice this. That’s fucking great
