Hot take

Since this meta is going to be very execute heavy and generally speaking very fast, agents like KJ and Cypher will be replaced by Sage whose stalling capabilities are much stronger while information gathering will be less important. Information gathering in general is more useful when the meta is slow, therefor skye is going to be dropped for Kay-0.

i dont see the meta outside of smoke agents and maybe more double dive comps taking advantage of astra-less pace gain.

meta isnt going to be execute heavy bro, theres nothing that makes it excute heavy other than the addition of neon, whos increase in game pace has alredy been countered by the availiability of chamber.

Neon got countered before it was even created

I don't think it will be execute heavy, sure it will be faster but I don't see information gathering being less valuable, cypher and killjoy are already going out of the meta not because gathering info is losing importance or beacuse they don't stall well, but because chamber is simply better, has a good slow, a tp and guns. Skye is going out of meta only because kayo wasn't that good if you already had an astra and a killjoy camping somewhere where it was hard to get them with the knife, waiting to spam all utility at you, with them falling out of meta due to nerfs/better agents even skye who was a better counter (ultimate, wolf could go anywhere) for them specifically is losing pick rates. The game will 100% become faster, but not that much imo

chambers not better than cypher and kj though. A sentinel's job is to stall a site and allow for you team to rotate. Chamber can't do that well unless he gets kills.

I agree with this for the most part and I discussed it in another thread. https://www.vlr.gg/76279/best-agents-on-new-patch-meta

Jett and Raze together will be popular on some maps. I also can see Sova pick rate going down.

The game got slowed down by Astra and Viper. Also Brimstone got speed buff.

That's the case in ranked, but in pro play it's much easier to stall with a chamber and in most cases his slow discourages a push and gives more time for the defenders to rotate and prepare

wont be execute heavy, might be a little faster but thats it, valorant is always going to be played (at least by top european teams) slow and defaulty af
