TL;DR

Iso buff to weapon equip speed after unequipping Double Tap
Yoru buff with an increase in duration of Gatecrash
Iso Double Tap The speed of equipping your weapon after unequipping Double Tap is now instant.
Yoru Gatecrash Active Beacon Duration increased from 15s >>> 20s
Fakeout To further satisfy his deception fantasy, clones from Fakeout will now hold Yoru's last equipped weapon, instead of defaulting to his strongest weapon.

Fixed an issue where Astra's ability cooldown timer could sometimes remain visible after the ability had already been used.
Fixed an issue where Clove could gain an extra charge of Ruse during the Buy Phase by purchasing and reselling ability charges.
Fixed an issue where Cyber Cage could incorrectly block line-of-sight interactions above the ability's visual effects.
Fixed an issue where Cyber Cage's trajectory indicator would not appear when throwing the ability into locations outside of Cypher's line of sight.
Fixed an issue where Cyber Cage would sometimes fail to play an audio cue when enemies entered through the lower portion of the cage.
Fixed an issue where certain Spycam voice lines would not play correctly during specific actions.
Fixed an issue where GravNet's third-person visual effects could disappear after a player disconnected and reconnected to the match.
Fixed an issue where Nearsight visual effects on some controllable creatures could persist after they had been destroyed by an enemy.

TL;DR: Vanguard continues to go brr, Map Rating is here, Performance Score has been updated, Corrode got some sweet new updates, Ascent and Split are out, Corrode and Bind are in, and we fixed some bugs.
Killjoy Alarmbot projectile destruction VFX and audio feedback will now trigger when projectile is destroyed by moving doorways
New Queue and Mode Select interface for matchmade and custom game types

TL;DR: The big one is here. A new home and lobby experience, Agent Mastery system, Gauntlet: Glitched, Practice Range in Queue, The Warden, Competitive Updates, and more are ALL LAUNCHING TODAY!
Anyway, sit back, relax, and strap in for some lengthy patch notes that go in-depth on allllll the new stuff.
You can check out content like Events, Missions, the active map pool, Leaderboards, and more, while keeping your party front and center. We also added new tiles to Home to bring more visibility to limited time features such as new modes and Pick’ems.

TLDR; Pick’ Ems for Champs, penalties for stream sniping and instalock tools, and future changes to the Agent Gear system so make sure to grind it out and get all the items now!
Sound Sprays Based on your feedback, we've adjusted the sound attenuation for all sound sprays so you'll only be able to hear the sounds if you're nearby to ensure teams can communicate effectively. This will be a standard for all future audio sprays.
Fixed an issue where Agent Ultimate voiceover could continue playing from an enemy's perspective after the Agent casting the Ultimate was killed.

New map rotation and bug fixes for Agents and melee skins
TLDR; Goodbye Breeze and hello Abyss ! There’s a new map rotation in our Competitive and Deathmatch queues, and we fixed some issues with Agent bugs and transforming melees like Kuronami 2.0 and Nocturnum.
Happy Patch Day, it’s Emily again! Act 5 is here, and with it a few fixes to keep your ranked grind consistent. Have y’all checked out the new skinline? You should really spam that flex…
