I agree that cypher isnt that Bad but he needs some little Buffs for sure, same as astra super cool agent but to weak to play
The best part about being a cypher main with tons of setups is that on the off chance you run into another high level cypher player you just end up predicting each others setups, and the person with more niche setups ends up winning. A really anticlimactic agent diff compared to others tho.
a good cypher buff ?
i think cypher ajor buff would be his trip wires,he is useless compared to others,chamber has dmg,KJ has dmg,sage has heal ,cypher have trips that have for only purpose to be destroyed for infos
TRIP WIRES :
i think cypher trips should not have daze at the end because they get destroyed any way but have 1.25 the dmgs of a KJ grenade Here why
Cypher only have 1 dmg ability(2 trips) where KJ have turret that gives info and alarmt bot that make you receiv TWICE as much damage not counting her 2 nades PLUS her nades can be thrown anywhere and has radius damage where cypher trips can onlyt trap 1 personne,and need to be place first on a surface and seconde before round as a setup where KJ can throw it like setup of a moly or post plant lineup this is a major advantage and by cypher not having this i think his trip dealing 1.25 the dmg of kj nades is fair
CAGES : cages should slow enemies or even more powerfull would be to tag them like a recon dart as they enter in and here is why
cages don’t have any instant purpose,chamber trip slows,sage orb slow,kj alarm bot make them receive 2x damage that’s why it is unfair
plus his cages last 8 seconds,lets be honest you won’t use it as a real smoke first because 8 seconds is ridiculous where smoker have 25/30secs of smoke so cages should earn their name of “cages” and trap people that push through or are inside
CAMERA :
his camera is more than fine and don’t even need a buff i think,if it would need one it would either be damage for previous reason i’ve wrote or no sound when camera gets used/unused but this is really optionnal a think that would be incredible IS SHOOTING DARTS WITH RIGHT CLICK this is so annoying to shoot and give infos just because you wanted to tag to deplay a push or else and shoot you weapon instead please this is a small thing that would make BIG DIFFERENCE
ULTIMATE : his ultimate is great as well it gives infos and this is the purpose of cypher and i think it doesn’t need any changes
even though his ultimate is not fair compared to other sentinel where sage litteraly transforme a round to a 6v5 or chamber having a 4700$ op on eco rounds or KJ capable of delay / win a round with her ult,cypher ult is bad,but everything cannot be good on a character otherwise it would be op and this is a thing to take care of and considerate as well
Thanks for reading this i hope Thinking man’s will see this and have fun on valorant
Cypher buff idea: Give him eagle vision and he can snipe anyone from the sky using a drone
I think they should replace Cypher’s ult with one where he says “its Cypherin time” and Cyphers all of the enemy team immediately ending the round, i think that would be fun and balanced and not at all OP.
bro spent half a day on reddit and turned into the joker, we truly live in a society
Cypher Buff I suggest:
•His trips are unbreakable
•Cypher can see through his cage
•The cam should have a gun deing 50 damage
•Ult is only 2 Kills

I would say you are not entirely incorrect when you say Cypher is not as bad as most people may think, but make no mistake, he is still a bottom tier agent in pro play and needs buffs. Yes C9W dominated SR with Cypher, but let’s not pretend like the gap between these two teams aren’t huge. C9W outclasses SR by a mile, this is like when PRX played Reyna and Phoenix on Breeze vs that winless APAC team and won. Did that prove that Reyna and Phoenix were viable in pro play, or did it only prove that PRX was just so much better than the other team that they could play anyone and win? For C9W and SR I think the latter is more true than the idea that Cypher is suddenly a viable agent outside of Breeze.
And I’m out here lovesick. I crave for Yuri romance.
The biggest thing that needs to happen is the glitch where cypher doesnt recognize a corpse for his ult gets fixed, its cost me rounds as i try to ult and it wouldnt go off
After watching the whole video just realised that this nigga was proving ironically reddit wrong
No surprise that it’s meL who is the example here. I’ve stolen many of her cypher tech and setups, she’s got a lot of great ideas. I especially love her ideas about using obvious trips in early def rounds before switching to kill trips to catch people off-guard.
Sure, maybe at pro play Cypher can sort of be played. But Mels set up would not have held up against a 5 man rush, which is the meta for ranked (we see this in the video, they got onto site by just pushing past his almost useless util). All Cypher buffs mostly look at building on what he has, because if you look at his kit compared to any other sentinels, he’s ridiculously weak.
The idea of just “switching set ups” is obviously applicable to all sentinels, but Cypher particularly struggles with this as his main util requires enemies to pass through a very small area, its not got the circular range like a Chamber or Killjoy bot. These pieces of util are also not activated by any of the current meta initiators. Just to list, Cyphers trips are activated/dismantled by:
Yoru Clone
Fade Dog
Sky Dog
Boombot
Raze Nade
Sova Arrow
They’re also able to be oneshot. Yes, an alarm bot/trademark can also be destroyed with Raze Nades or Shock arrows, but it can be placed anywhere and hold down a large chunk of the map, meaning Sova’s arrows are a gamble as KJ/Chamber might not even have utility there.
This is why you see most posts looking at reworking trip wire placement, or maybe making them silent. Because comparatively they’re incredibly weak compared to the other sentinels. All of this, and I haven’t even touched on how underwhelming his signature is compared to the other sentinels, or his ult.
On that 2nd round it’s more remarkable how bad SR played than how good Mel is. They saw the mid/market trip the round before, but got caught. They didn’t use Astra util when entering site. On top of all that they were on an eco, so C9 job was a walk in the park.
Honestly the only QoL change I want for cypher is for the camera to not appear on opponent’s maps
the best cypher buff i saw on reddit was turning him into chamber😂
Reddit is one of the last platforms I go on for intellectual input and it’s followed by twitter
For the sake mental health, just don’t engage in reddit
thank you
Like any other cypher main in this comment section we all agree. Cypher skill ceiling is non existent, he can be good in a solo que environment, but only when you have an absurd amount of hours on him
when you know when to do trip set ups either for info or campy trick set ups for free kills
Knowing how to use his cages for easy self sufficient smoking and one ways
Also the info he provides is great for the team but specifically himself
The overall thing is that he can be good in the right hands, but it’s way to complicated when the easier option is to just choose chamber as a sential with equal value for less effort
