Regarding what I said at 2:00, it turns out it's a fair bit lower. 2KC for a Round played and 4 KC for a Round won.
This means if you were to win a game 13-7 like I mentioned in the video, you actually only gain 92 Kingdom Credits and not 230 :(

I personally don’t like the feature of not getting contract items using kingdom credits. XP was completely fine with me and adding Kingdom credits feels like it would be harder being able to use the shop seeing the prices of how much it takes to unlock

[AdamSmithsonianism]

I am hella thanking my past self for focusing on getting all agents unlocked before maxing the contracts cause now all I have to work on is the agent items

[actualV]

it's a good update for system progression, but the reward is rather underwhelming cards, buddies, titles not gonna appeal so much, cards yeah there's some cool cards previous BP but titles and buddies not so much so it can be drawback to casual side since they didn't see anything too valuable to exchange it

[PasiK]

Just a small tip for everyone who wants to buy the new agent (which usually costs $10/€10): if you have xbox game pass for pc, you have all agents unlocked AND you get an xp boost. xbox game pass already costs only 10 bucks, but you can buy keys for a lower price (i got one for €6, 70). so there's not really a reason why you would buy it with valorant points. I'm not sure what happens after the game pass sub runs out, but i imagine at that point you have enough kingdom credits anyway.

Okay since you don't seem to get some people's issues, let me explain mine

Whenever I get any Kingdom Credits I will have to decide between buying a new agent, buying agent gear or buying previous battle pass items

With agents being 8k if I recall
Agent items being 40k+
And random battle pass items being even more I have to spend

On top of only earning 600 a day from all bonuses and even taking into account the one time only gift of 5k from the devs, it's an insane amount to spend to get anything and players will have to be stuck with making hard choices for either getting limited time rotating items from the store, a system that gives an incentive to saving your currency and waiting for something you want, which is being limited yet again by an arbitrary 10k cap so we can't even save in the first place, or buying missing agents and their corresponding items which have been overpriced to the point of leaving you with nothing left considering I need to hit the cap a little over FOUR times in a row to get agent items

The previous agent system was perfect, the KC system should have been made exclusively to trade for battlepass items from the past and thats IT

Time to farm them Kingdom credits by going OT in Competitive with some friends by getting 2 5 stacks and going to 30 - 30

[hanzpeter-sj]

i personaly think that the cosmetics from agent contracts should be unlocked with xp after you buy the agent because 45000 kingdom credits for every agent sounds redicuoles

[gscan]

One thing that I really don't like is the fact that I was on part 4 of unlocking Omen, but now that this is out there is no reduced cost to unlock him, even though I was about to unlock him through exp

[togepipickmeup]

Apart from sprays and a couple of banners, personally for me, it feels not enough... especially if battlepass items are the only things rotating inside it..

[shinobi]

Definitely, a good update, but it's hella disappointing that there are no skins or knives in the accessory store. Those are literally the main purpose of buying the battlepass for most players lol

[CohenRussell-dkhr]

Seems like its good for players that already have all agents unlocked, but bad for people that still have agents to unlock

[wordiaa]

I think a major problem is that the KC you can unlock through agent contracts can't be unlocked if you already completed them... so newer players get more

[jaybeam]

It was definitely a horrible decision to make kingdom credits the way to unlock agent gear.

[nader]

would be nice if you could convert kingdom points to valorant points. even if the conversion rates were abysmal, it would still make dropping 20 to 30 bucks for 1 skin more bearable

[blanketray]

I was 9k xp away from unlocking gekko’s shorty. I now have to play for ~a week, every day, to unlock it again, after i get the new agent.

[Thrleven]

One of my least favorite parts of this is that I can't earn 3 or 4 tiers of an agent and spend 2 or 4 bucks to speed unlock them, but I suppose haven't done that since I caught up anyway. Oh well.

[TwiiChyyy]

For you guys who stop playing at the end of the last season, you can leave the last week of challenges unfinished and they carry over to the next season. Easy xp for the new agent.

[_sayandas]

And after all that, you will a card and a freaking Title ! Can you imagine???!!!. How unique and rewarding.

Me who used to progress on contracts via weeklies because I'm only able to play on weekends: 😐
