Valorant Patch Notes 9.09 arrived on November 5, 2024. Apart from general bug fixes and Premier updates, it also introduced several Agent bug fixes to Gekko’s Thrash, Fade’s Prowler, and Deadlock’s ANNIHILATION. While these won’t affect the current Valorant meta, they will make the in-game experience with these characters more positive.

With that said, let’s check out the latest patch notes for Valorant.
