This melee weapon has two variants: a blue one and a red one. Both of them have unique designs and graffiti all over, with a brightly shining light inside. It seems a baseball bat and the lightsaber from Star Wars have a baby together.
Seeing this gem of a melee weapon, fans couldn’t control their emotions. One fan can’t even imagine that this is actually in the game.

What Else Is Waiting in the Valorant Episode 9?
Apart from the Battlepass rewards, there are loads of things to be discovered in the new episode of the game. This episode probably brings one of the best skin bundles in recent times, and that is the Evori Dreamwings bundle. This new bundle will feature Vandal, Odin, Ghost, Spectre, and Melee skins, which are quite similar to the Star Guardians from League of Legends.
Along with these skins, you will get Gun Buddies, Player Cards, and Sprays as well in this bundle. This bundle focuses on a cute cat, which will fly around the weapon when you spectate it. Not only that, the cat shows various animations while firing, reloading, and jumping.
Talking about Episode 9, there are character buffs and nerfs as well. After a controversial buff on Iso, the Chinese Duelist is finally receiving a nerf to his Double Tap (E) ability. On the other hand, the Russian Initiator, Sova, has received a buff on Owl Drone’s HP (C) ability.
The beginning of Episode 9 in Valorant has made fans super excited. What are your thoughts on these huge updates and rewards? Let us know in the comment section.
