f**king FINALLY. I have been so hyper and hopeful that Viper or Astra would be in it. Viper on the Classic is PERFECT. Easiest purchase of my life.

glad you like it! :)

Does it change colours while inspecting/every time you pull it out?

Changes as you move around the map.

Yes it does; you’re not imagining it. The visualizer effects also sync up with the music in-game when you inspect. For the melee, it syncs up through the entire blade.

It doesn't even have custom sounds. So lazy.

The butterfly knife does have custom sounds. Our audio designer used a real butterfly knife to record it.

Hey! I Had a very lucky chance to get an exclusive look at the new butterfly knife coming to Valorant! I was able to talk to the Riot devs for an hour so if you have any questions please let me know!

Hi, Omar! Great chatting with you too!

What skins will the community ask us for next now that we released the butterfly knife? Can we run Sakura again for 2 more weeks? :D

Jokes aside, I hope you all like it when you check it out in game. IMO the butterfly knife feels even better when you use it yourself than it does in the videos.

Thank you! Our audio designer did an awesome job, didn't he?

I checked them out last night and they're definitely more distinguishable, but I personally prefer deep purples like the Ruination purple variant. But that's just me, I think there was space for more gentle pastel colors and I think this set was a fitting one to include that with.

Thanks for checking them out! :)

May I ask why the skin team seems to be against “total conversion” skins. Basically, why not make the sheriff literally lucians repeaters for the sentinel skin? Why not make the Operator literally Senna’s gun? I’ve thought about this when it comes to maybe throwing back to CS and releasing a deagle skin for the sheriff. I know it’s a different gun but people would get it.

We do it with the knives. I think a total and complete change in the model would be okay for guns too. Why does the skin team not like doing this?

I asked in a different thread, but why do the gun skins HAVE to be say, a revolver? Why not make the sheriff skin literally lucians repeaters? Why not make the OP Senna’s gun? It wouldn’t be confusing to players.

We want the guns to be recognizable as the base guns due to competitive integrity. If it was 1:1 Lucian's guns, it wouldn't be clear which gun in our game you were using, especially if you picked it up off the ground. We're very careful about maintaining design elements of the gun so they're always clearly recognizable.

Vandal is Lucian and Senna

Ares is Pyke

Sheriff is Graves

Sorry for the confusion, does this mean that the firing sound of the vandal takes from both Lucian and Senna's sfx from league?

Yes! Firing, equip, reload, and inspect!

Just on the Ruination Ghost. There's no Gwen on the Vandal. :)

Y’all are actually my favorite game devs. I’ve never seen devs being so open and a part of the community. Thank you guys so much.

aww thank you! Riot and VALORANT have been really awesome in encouraging us to talk to the community, so it's been great to be able to talk and not worry if we're saying anything out of line

Hey /u/riot_preeti, if this is something you are interested in doing let me know. I make content for Japanese and English speaking VALORANT fans (bilingual) and would love to put something out for the Japanese audience, completely localized with Japanese subs! Reach out to my DM if you’re interested :D

Hi! We've spoken to creators from other regions before! The best way to do this is for you to reach out to your influencer manager in your region!
