The competitive Valorant scene is finally heating up with the start of various tournaments around the world, but some players and fans have voiced their grievances around the rise of a certain sub-machine gun, which has taken off as a lethal eco-round solution. Worked in ,Effectively known as the Stinger Meta, the weapon increased in popularity after patch 5.06, when the developers beefed up the weapon by lowering its firing error rate for both its primary and secondary fire. If you need more information about One of the Coolest Weapons Finally Getting a Nerf in Valorant’s Patch Note 6.02 then read carefully and don’t forget to share with your friends.
In case you weren’t aware, Riot Games drops Valorant patches every two weeks, usually on Tuesdays unless otherwise stated. It was expected to arrive on the last day of next month, with patch 6.01 dropping on January 17th.
This allowed Stinger users to control their recoil more easily than before, while still remaining one of the most effective weapons to buy due to its low price. What the update will be is unknown, however, since there haven’t been any major changes in previous patches, so expect some tuning for this one or possibly the 6.03 patch. It’s worth noting that patch 6.00 was absolutely massive. First, it coincided with the release of Episode 6, which brought a new Split, a new map, the return of Lotus, and lots of balance changes.

In response, Riot will make some significant changes to the weapon’s price, as well as its damage dropping at specific distances. Riot said on social media, “We think the Stinger is overperforming at its price point, especially in the early going, and lacks the right economic tradeoff.”The price of the popular SMG is being increased from 950 credits to 1100, which should make it a harder hit on the team economy if you fail a round. Weapon damage will also drop at shorter ranges, with the gun taking 27 damage per bullet from 0-15 meters and 23 damage per bullet from that distance.
So that’s it! If you don’t see the update pop up the next time you try to boot up Valorant, you won’t be alerted anymore. Overall, the Stinger will be less effective in many instances, which should lead to a decline in its use in both professional play and singles queer alike. Currently, the Stinger is the third most equipped weapon in the 2023 VCT North American Challengers, right behind the Vandal and the Phantom. Riot announced via social media that while patch 6.02 had been delayed, it is now scheduled for February 7th. Fans should expect patch 6.03 to drop at its usual time, exactly one week later, on the 14th.
