Simulator Updates

Several improvements and fixes have been made to the simulator. Check them out:

• Fixed the bad composition debuff
  • Previously, only one specific player was getting the debuff instead of the entire team
• Player aim now has more impact in duels
• Movement has a smaller impact on enemy aim
  • Previously: reduced accuracy by up to 30%
  • Now: reduces accuracy by up to 20%
• Map pool has been updated to VALORANT’s current rotation
• Some agents have been added to the meta on specific maps:
  • Sage (Icebox)
  • Reyna (Icebox)
  • Chamber (Haven, Ascent)
  • Neon (Abyss)
• Duelists can now play Chamber without getting a debuff
  • Useful for players who like playing double duelists but don’t want two duelist agents on the map
• Bad composition debuff has been increased
• New game mode: Tournament
  • To play this mode, just run the command /duel tournament
  • This mode is for users who want to host tournaments in their servers or test different comps and players
  • In this mode, you can choose which map you want to play

New Features

Not exactly “new”, but they’re no longer restricted to Partner or Premium servers:

• You can now set a channel where the bot will send live match score updates in real time
  • To set it up, just use /live enable valorant or /live enable lol
  • These commands include a spam option. Enabling it makes the bot send a new message every time the score updates. If disabled, the bot will edit the last message instead and will only send a new one if its last 7 messages aren’t from the bot
  • The spam option disabled is useful if you want to set it in a general chat to avoid flooding. Enable it if you’re using a dedicated live match channel
  • By default, the spam option is disabled
• You can now set a channel where the bot will send VALORANT esports news
  • To set it up, just use /news enable valorant

New Perks

Since live score updates and news are now available for all servers, new perks were added for servers with an active Premium key:

• 1.25x daily coins bonus for ALL members using /daily in a server with a Premium Booster key active
• 1.5x daily coins bonus for ALL members using /daily in a server with a Premium key active

Important: the bonus only applies if you use the command in a server that has one of these keys active

Bug Fixes

• Fixed all cards for player johnqt, which were incorrectly showing as "jonhqt" instead of "johnqt"

Other Updates

• You can now add all franchise tournaments, Challengers League, and Game Changers at once
  • To do this, run /tournament add valorant and select one of the first 3 options
• The /claim reminder was improved
  • Previously, it could take up to 1 minute to notify users when /claim was ready
  • Now it’s almost instant (2 seconds max delay)
