Valorant Patch 12.10 Update

Valorant Patch 12.10: Replays, New Maps and Masters Pick'Ems

Riot Games has released Patch 12.10 for Valorant. While this update is smaller in scale compared to some of the major shifts earlier in the episode, it introduces several requested quality-of-life improvements. The highlights include a new social feature for the replay system, fresh map layouts for Skirmish mode, and the return of Pick'Ems for the upcoming Masters London tournament. Here is a detailed breakdown of everything included in this latest update.

Share and Analyze Replays with Friends

The most notable feature of Patch 12.10 is the addition of friend sharing for replays. Players can now watch replays of their friends' matches directly from the Career tab. This feature is supported across several game modes, including Competitive, Unrated, Swiftplay, Premier, and Custom matches.

Whether you want to study the strategies of your highly ranked peers or work with teammates to review tactical errors, this tool provides a practical way to learn. The best part is that you can even ask your partner to send you his replays in a Valorant Duo Boost so you can review them and learn from his POV.

For Custom games, keep in mind that replays will only be recorded if the lobby owner enables the recording option in the Custom settings before the match begins. This setting must be manually re-enabled for each subsequent custom game.

Masters London Pick’Ems Are Live

Esports fans have a new reason to log in, as the Pick'Ems event for Masters London begins on May 27 at Pacific Time. Players can make their predictions either through the in-game client or via the official web portal.

The format remains consistent with previous tournaments. Participants are tasked with predicting which teams will advance from the eight-team Swiss Stage. Correctly identifying a team that progresses with a clean 2-0 record yields bonus points. Simply locking in predictions awards an exclusive in-game title, with additional rewards distributed based on overall prediction accuracy compared to the global leaderboard.

Skirmish Updates and New Maps

The Skirmish: Ascension mode receives updates in this patch to improve the training experience. First, all agents are now fully unlocked for players in both 1v1 and 2v2 formats, regardless of whether you have unlocked them on your main account. This change ensures everyone has equal access to the full roster during warm-up matches.

Additionally, two new maps have been introduced to the Skirmish rotation: Skirmish D and Skirmish E. These warehouse-themed environments feature new ramp structures designed to create unique vertical angles and peeking opportunities. Using these new environments to warm up can help sharpen your mechanics, which is a reliable way to improve your performance alone or alongside a pro-player in Valorant boosting.

Looking Ahead

Patch 12.10 focuses on refining existing features rather than restructuring the game. The replay sharing feature and the fresh Skirmish maps offer immediate utility for players preparing for the end of the current competitive act. Meanwhile, console players can look forward to Patch 12.11, which is scheduled to bring the anticipated balance adjustments to the shotgun spread of the Judge.
