We’ve all seen the adorable image from lead developer of Valorant Bee dating sim ‘ImABeeBop’ made of Gekko’s adorable friend Wingman (otherwise, he’s below). Wielding one of the classic guns in FPS gaming, we’ve all wondered what it would be like if Wingman could take on the competition with an Operator. The new Valorant patch notes reveal that since March 32he will be able to do just that.
The Wingman Operator is truly the highlight of this (very real) Valorant patch, but there are a host of other changes that will shake the shooter to the core.
Friendship ended with Vandal
First, the fact that the vandal was completely removed from the store. There’s been a long-running debate over which rifle is best in Valorant, so Riot cut out the middleman by removing the Vandal from the store entirely.
As the main ghost, I don’t care; in fact, I laugh in the face of everyone who told me it was the bottom. Who’s gonna be down now? Me no.
Jett ir brr
Another major change is the fact that everyone’s favorite Valorant character, Jett, now has a dash on a 0.5 second cooldown. You’ve heard of Sonic the Hedgehog, haven’t you? Jett is basically him, but human and much faster.

We also have a list of the best Valorant scopes because it helps to be prepared.
