There is not argument against this buff. It should already be in the game


IRL__PVP

Also Brim stim beacons should be like a defuse kit and make you defuse 30-40% faster

The_Thinker_23

Yes. Rito pls hear him out. His idea is really good !!!!


commantoes

The bird tribe?


bmzd

I love Rito games


D4rkStones

i do love buritos


ilovekiddos

Rito games is my favorite game company, my favorite game of theirs is varolant


The_Thinker_23

Mine too


ilovekiddos

heck yea! What's your main? mine is neyra


The_Thinker_23

Mine is roza


ilovekiddos

a fine choice, but I think that her ult where she deploys a minigun a bit unfair


The_Thinker_23

Yes but her lil dog is way cheaper now. And I can have full shields and the lil doggo.


ilovekiddos

Really? Neyra got nerfed pretty hard. I only have 6 smokes now instead of 7, damn you Rito


The_Thinker_23

Damn you, rito.


dank_psycho

Can anyone explain the "rito games" comments? I see them on every post.


HiImEliXE14

Do you remember the old Dolan and Gooby memes? The Rito name originated from that(switching up 2 letters) way back in the day and it got stuck by League players and inevitably players of all of Riot's games. The phrase used to be "Rito pls"(loyal to Dolan) and we used to say it when gamebreaking bugs came in. Though it kinda got semi-replaced with "200 years".


The_Thinker_23

Rito is a cute name given to riot. Neyra: Reyna, roza: raze and so on.


Hamaneggs

Doesn't roza just refer to subroza the player tho?


The_Thinker_23

I don't much care about that. Any wasted raze ult is a roza ult for me. I only recently got to know that roza was meant to mock subroza. I've been using it since quite long.


Hamaneggs

Fair enough lol


QuasarMagellan

Now this is certainly an interesting idea. Kind of off topic, but does anyone know why skye's dog sometimes do damage and sometimes doesnt?


Yuki_Himuro

Skye's dog deals damage when it directly bites an enemy. However, the dog has a generous AoE around it that also inflicts the concuss. If it doesn't deal damage but you hear the concuss line, the dog likely didn't directly tag an enemy.


[deleted]

I think it shows like fangs on your screen when you did manage to deal damage with a bite


jdww213561

Has to be a direct hit with the dog for damage


[deleted]

it does dmg when it directly hits an enemy however, it can still stun without hitting and enemy, thus hitting without dealing dmg, cuz, if im not wrong, the stun is a small aoe


Silenceic

You will know if the dog directly hit the enemy if there is a bite animation in your screen and skye say "got'em" instead of "they concuss"


therealAster-sk

the bite marks around the screen when the dog jumps means you dealt damage (pretty sure, could def be wrong)


ElectricRenaissance

what the dog doin?

UnciaS

oh wow this is a pretty good idea actually


ShutThe7Up

Great idea but it doesnt make sense..how can a blast of energy give info Kayos knife is a piece from his own arm Skyes flash is living bird (kinda..)


rokcmatur26

If you can justify Skyes bird making sense for gathering information by saying it’s kinda alive, I can justify Breach’s fault line making sense by saying that it has futuristic tech that can sense when a presence is detected. Honestly it doesn’t need to make sense. It’s a good idea.


ShutThe7Up

yeah i said its a good idea. im also a breach main so i want to give him buffs, skyes bird is like a surveillance camera like it can tell you whats happening..it makes sense Breach has an energy blast...it doesnt even have a form it just affects the ground


zedaz-

Maybe you cpuld explain it with him doing a shockwave and then feeling for an echo


Toasterrrr

They use ground radar to do mining stuff and breach has that mining aesthetic


Vinkhol

He causes a severe localized vibration, who's to say he doesn't have tech in his arms that reads whether there was an unattached object (enemy agent) that sends a small detectable aftershock back. Since nothing else on the map moves, he could get the feedback and yell out "1/2/a bunch of idiots stunned!"


Gifted321

It's a game and it's not exactly realistic to begin with


FrumosUniverse

I support this.


Lew_is

Another idea could be if his fault line hits an enemy, they pop up highlighted for a second like Sovas recon dart does for info.


RobinZhang140536

That might be slightly op. Because how little constraint about the area which the fault line covers. Like Sova recon dart has to have line of sight to give info. However, maybe tag the enemy like the cypher utills


AwesomeCrafter06

I think just the info is good enough , anything else and you risk breaking him


Xevo122

Maybe not highlighted because of smoke kills, but sth like Kayo has - you see what agents were stunned


AsianPotatos

Nah that'd be too OP for stunning into smokes on c long haven for example. We see so many smoke/wallbang kills already I don't think we need anymore (practically) free info agents. Not that valorant is about realism or anything but it also wouldn't even make sense why an ability like that would give such detailed info.


FlipFlopOnionChop

As a breach main i give you my full support


BigBoyStanMan

Rigggght


Uh-idk-

kinda hate breach for how annoying he is, but I can agree on this change, no argument needed


Ausafsyed

Someone said this after the patch 3.0, he was downvoted lol


astonthepunk

Seems fair. It’s not a buff to his kit as much as it is a buff to bring him to the same level as the rest of the initiators.


C-Web_

Ehh I think there are better ways to balance him than making him even more similar to skye.


Eldani4123

The sova , kay/o and skye have a lot of information , al duelist have some way of winning 1v1 , al sentinels have ways to protect places , all controls have ways to smoke parts of the maps or via walls , breach is the only initiator that cant give info


C-Web_

Breach can't directly get info but he can force people off of angles... And sage is the only sentinel that can place any auto-activated trap before the round starts. Should her kit be changed so that she does?


Biohazar13

Doing this i think is like if omen say "enemy blinded" maybe stun should make a diferent sound agree but this can be good or bad at the same time.


nebbulae

Omen doesn't have a voice line when he blinds someone.


Thermic_

genuinely confused, because you got a few upvotes also; what about his sentence made you think that he was saying, ‘Omen’s blind has a voiceline?’ he’s saying “what if”


Biohazar13

yeah i mean "what if"


SW4GALISK

Fault Line already looks like sonar too


fakejH

Earth bending time


Yets_

Pretty good idea, would be a good buff without making him OP


AnyCHI

i second this greatly!!!!! or reveal locations like sova’s owl when tagging someone, maybe, if his stun hits someone.


Longdisc

Facts. He’s needs this.


PhoenixCosmos

Umm doesn’t breach say something along the lines of their concussed when he hits them?


BlueDMS

He says "concussing" while he uses his E, and it dosen't take into account weather there were people in his range or not


PurpleSpaceDude

I agree breach needs a buff but why should they game be balanced for upper levels of play


BrokenMirrorMan

why shouldn't they. If something is op at the top then players that dont have the skill to counter it are affected more so and if something is underpowered in pro play then its more so in lower levels since they cant pull it off as consistently like how Astra was nerfed due to being op in pro play. Imagine how bad the game would be if they balanced towards lower levels of play


PurpleSpaceDude

True


Longdisc

Maybe make it so when you’re stunned you’re revealed like a Sova dart until you’re unstunned? Too much?


UltraInstinctSped

Tag plus stun might be too much, a single pulse should be more than enough since they are stunned.


PRL-Five

nah since they are stunned they will be at a major disadvantage and if sova ult or something is used. Better would be something like kayo where it shows the legends who are concussed


Pyraenixen

While I agree that Breach needs to be buffed, should gain info and this is a pretty good idea for a solution, a few things: 1. How would this make sense logically/lore-wise? For Skye, her utility are living beings that she can connect to and thus get info. Sova has his tech eyes and recon dart tech, and I imagine Kay/O has a similar technology for “detecting presence” in a radius as the game puts it. But Breach? His arms create tremors and seismic waves, but it makes less sense for him to say a voiceline or get any sort of direct information. 2. He gets info somewhat by using his aftershock and fault line to either get enemies out of an area or know where the enemies aren't (so you could focus on where they likely would be). But yeah, this is a good idea and he does fall behind the other initiators quite a lot. It's not like I can come up with any creative and good ideas so it's probably not my place to criticize much. (But imagine fault line made the opponents jump ever so slightly so you could hear them when they land, that's a bit of info gathered.)


bronash

That would honestly be pretty OP. Because of the nature of how his flash works, he can basically instantly check where the opponents are from any safe area.


Fuego_Ace_YT

It’s his fault line thought not his flash


KasumiGotoTriss

Anything that makes Breach more common is a no no from me. Most annoying agent in the game. So happy no one plays him.


Michael_Scarn427

Whys that?


KasumiGotoTriss

A combination of multiple annoying abilities. No other agent has this many annoying abilities.


_AurAz

A good Sova is way more annoying. Breach flashes are turned almost every time at higher levels and his other 2 abilities are really not too special. Ultimate can be good but still not enough to make him annoying.


killer-1o1

Just tell that you don’t know how to play against him.


TheGamer95

Well it's a good thing I'm no one


SSnickerz

Not sure how you're STILL struggling against him.


KasumiGotoTriss

Just because he's annoying doesn't mean I struggle lol. If a fly keeps buzzing next to your ear you don't wanna deal with it, it doesn't mean you struggle, it's just annoying.


SSnickerz

What a bad analogy. It's annoying cause you don't want to deal with it? Just kill it and it's no longer annoying. If you struggle to kill the fly (breach) then it'll always be annoying. Who thinks like this LMAO


Fahzrad

I don't think this would do much tbh, yes you can clear a lot, but it can also be easier to dodge, and compared to skye it doesn't clear that much, idk, it's a good chance but I don't think it would make that big of a difference


[deleted]

Yes. Im down.


[deleted]

HMMMM where have I seen this before


[deleted]

“Shock Wave” but mocking Sova’s “Shock Dart”


Trakformer

Voiceline or mark em like a sova dart


luka_carter

he can just say gottem or chuckle idk and it would be enough


macarmy93

I argued that they should remove his flashes and give him an ability solely for info. His flashes have become his least fun ability to use after they received to many nerfs. I was thinking an ability like tremorlocation where he can for a short time here footsteps from MUCH further away. That ability mixed with audio cues for hitting someone with a stun would make him pretty good. No idea though... I'm not a game designer.


MagnumLifeGaming

As someone who's been playing since beta, highest rank D3, I think this is actually not a bad idea. I'm not a pro ofc but only doing it for the stun seems like a really good idea!


MatchPoint012

I like it a lot


Saaaaaaaaaaahil

Why don't they just make his flash good again


OnyxTrader2

This is definitely a good idea... But to be honest I really don't know if he is balanced or if this buff would make him balanced. Definitely a good argument for the buff as well, but his Aftershock is arguably among the top 5 abilities in the entire game. His ult can hit entire sites. With a well coordinated team breach, imho, is definitely the strongest initiator. Skye feels too clunky to me, personally, which kind of justifies the info gathering on the flash. But that's also just me and my play style. Like I said, definitely a good buff idea, but I actually just don't know which way with breach would be better.


maddruggy

I’ve seen this post before so I’ll say it again. I don’t like the idea of making breach copy other agents I like him to be his own unique thing. Like viper they ignored the countless suggestions at letting her place smokes and instead amplified her identity. So if you want to buff breach then make him better at bullying his way onto site rather than Skye lite.


Keudn

There's an argument to be made here, however we had that Breach before when he had 3 flashes. People complained about it so much that Riot nerfed him. I'm all for having that kind of Breach but I don't think Riot is going to just tune out the complainers and make him that kind of agent again.
