Riot Games overlooks Phoenix’s flawed design in the latest VALORANT patch, leaving players frustrated.
In a Reddit post, a user criticizes Riot for ignoring Phoenix’s state in the game and highlights the imbalance in ultimate point requirements compared to other agents.
While popular agents receive nerfs, unpopular ones like Phoenix are left untouched, making him unviable against stronger duelists.
Despite the upcoming nerfs to Jett, Phoenix’s pick rate may only increase temporarily as players search for better options.
Phoenix’s kit lacks value as a space-taker, with his abilities being situational and ineffective in high-elo games.
Reyna and Yoru also suffer from similar issues, with their kits lacking competitive viability.
Overall, Phoenix’s kit is hit-or-miss, and players are better off choosing other duelists unless they have exceptional aim.
