The VALORANT patch 3.01 is finally here and seems like this will be a small update containing bug fixes for some agents and general quality of life changes.
This is the first patch since Riot launched Episode 3. From the looks of it, it is a minor patch filled with bug fixes that are agent-specific. Also, general social and progression-related fixes seem to be the main target of this patch.

In Episode 3, Riot made the biggest change to the game’s meta since the game launched back in 2020. From a reworked economy to general character balancing, everything felt different after patch 3.0. Even the running and gunning received some much-needed changes.
Instead of introducing more serious changes, Riot opted for subtle changes in patch 3.01. And based upon the past patch schedule, expect major changes to arrive with the next patch.
