As promised earlier,Riot Gamesrevealed the full list of changes coming to Chamber in Patch 5.12, which will be launched this month onValorantlive servers. According to the official notes, the update will nerf all of Chamber’s abilities, from restricting his teleport ability to nerfing his Ultimate sniper weapon.
Chamber has been dominating the Competitive matches in Valorant for a long time. The character’s incredible abilities made it a perfect choice for snipers to hold angles, get kills with a single shot, and reposition in the blink of an eye to hold a new angle. The character even had the ability to block the flank, thanks to his Trademark alarm device. However, all of those abilities will be nerfed soon.

Riot Games starts with nerfing the teleport ability, known as Rendezvous. From now on, Chamber can only spawn one anchor, which has an increased range of activation. When you press “E” inside the anchor’s range, you will be returned to the anchor. This will lower the repositioning range of Chamber to a large degree, which avoids him from instantly moving from one angle to the other.
When it comes to Trademark, Riot has made some buffs and nerfs to the device. With the new patch, Trademark will have an activation range, similar to Killjoy’s abilities. If Chamber exits that range, Trademark will be disabled. On the other hand, the device’s health has been increased to 20, and it can be recalled similarly to the teleport anchor with a cooldown of 30 seconds.
If opponents destroy Chamber’s teleport anchor or Trademark, they will remain disabled for the entire match. This means the anchors will not receive a cooldown after being destroyed, making Chamber the first Agent in Valorant without a rechargeable ability when his device gets destroyed.
Last but not least, the agent’s Ultimate will also receive some nerfs. The sniper weapon’s fire rate will be reduced by over 57%, and the slowdown effect of getting a kill with it will receive nerf in both range and duration.
