I have mained cypher since i started playing this game and did well with him until I got into comp. This is when I started getting tired of entering a game and picking cypher only for him to be so fucking bad in comparison to other agents. Agents such as chamber and KJ render cypher useless. It is absolutely insane how nerfed he is for no reason. I can make a list of things that are so pissing off for no reason because of how much better they could have been.
-
His abilities all have 1hp. Reckless teammates can effectively rid you of 400 creds worth of trapwires with small abilities. Not to mention the amount of trolls that love doing that to me in my low elo Silver lobbies. All fun and games until a raze throws a grenade in that general direction and your cam is reduced to atoms
-
His cyber cages barely last. Place one down and before you can say "i am bad at this game and i am complaining on reddit because I have a massive skill issue" the cage disappears.
-
His camera placing system is so fucking weird. Go close to a wall and look at a place and it's marked red. Move a bit to the left or right and magically the camera can be placed.
-
His ult is dogshit. 6 ult points for a ping that lasts half a picosecond? Not to mention it pings the opps in advance so they can move in a different direction to fake a side push. The only good part of the ult is the gigigigigigigigigive me a corpse
-
You have to have LOS and be in a range to the abilities to retract them. It's horrible forgetting a cam/wire and being crippled for the rest of the round.
-
Cypher looks scawy without a hat after using his ult (literally unplayable) i saw an opponent cypher without his hat and started crying profusely. the tears fell onto my RTX 3090 and now i am 740 million in debt from the venezuelan government. If I, a cypher main, was jumpscared Imagine other mains.
I think everyone can agree he is pretty bad right now, in comparison to other agents. His pick rate is the 2nd lowest in the game. I know the devs said before they they were planning to buff phoenix and cypher. They helped phoenix, but when will they help cypher? 😔
Do you agree/disagree with my points, or am I just bad? I am in silver after all lmao

Do valorant players stay toxic through the ranks?

Chamber singlehandedly ruins spike rush and is a must-pick every game.
