Be it equipping a Shorty in the camera of Cypher or flying through Sova’s recon dart, this game has shown us everything. Now, there’s another bug that is causing huge trouble for the Clove mains.

Clove’s Ult Got Cancelled by Cypher’s Ult in Valorant

Clove is the latest agent to join the roster of Valorant. This Controller’s main USP is their ultimate ability, called Not Dead Yet. Once killed, this agent can revive themselves in a certain time period. And after being revived, they have to kill an enemy or give an assist in a given limited time period to stay alive, or else they will die again. However, this ability might not work against Cypher’s ultimate ability.

What the hell happened? It looks like I got killed twice before I even revived. And yes, I lost my ult.

Cypher’s ult which is called Neural Theft uses a corpse of an enemy to download information of the enemy team. After a brief delay, the positions of all the enemy team players will be revealed twice. This ability is great in crunch situations to know where all the enemies are.

This ability is also great in another way, as it cancels out the ult of Clove. In a recent video shared by a frustrated fan on Reddit, we see Clove’s ult being cancelled by Cypher as the Moroccan Sentinel used Clove’s dead body to initiate his ult. Because of this, Clove wasn’t able to resurrect them, and their ult was wasted as well.

However, this is absolutely not intended by Riot, as it’s an unfair situation for all the Clove mains. According to the community, this is a huge bug that players hardly ever think about. Now, as the bug is here in front of everyone, Riot should start fixing this issue asap.

Other Infamous Bugs and Glitches in Valorant

When we talk about groundbreaking bugs and glitches, then there’s no way we can go past Valorant. This game has a rich history of serious issues. For a recent example, console players are right now missing out on the remake and surrender options due to a weird UI bug.

In the earlier part of 2022, we met one of the most overpowered glitches in the game. We know Astra has to buy stars to put his abilities at those points. Now, there was a glitch where Astra could buy and then resell her stars during the buy phase to yield unlimited money.

That means she could even do an operator in a pistol round. There was another OG glitch, which Omen fans might remember very well. In this glitch, all you had to do was use the smoke and ultimate ability of Omen at the same time.

This could allow you a small window to pull out your gun and shoot enemies that too were in the controller’s ultimate form. Not only that, you could also cancel your ULT and comeback.
