I've been incredibly busy irl the past month and so am really late to the party but Welcome MIKS 💜

It is also possible A30 can somehow charge up their allies' ultimate abilities, and there DO be some clues in that regard for sure.
The blue sparkly waves/core seem to be their ult and immediately after we can see agents ults show up🤔

Agent 30 is a Radiant??? 👁️👄👁️

This garage could belong to Agent 30? The same logo seen on the teaser card is also on the wall

I think Could it be that one of Agent 30's is that he can boost other agent's abilities? It seems to even affect the bullets 🤔

That would be all for patch 12.03. Thank you for reading lore friends!

Part of it is ofc due to her pragmatism but her willingness to let ppl make up for their past is certainly noble.
How Breach speaks when he's taken enemy Viper down makes me think he respects that Viper saw his ability to be a hero which is sth ppl in his life never granted him.

I love her voiceline with Breach. Viper’s been the character to offer 2nd chances to people who others would ignore; Basically giving them a noble cause to fight for even when others are hesitant to offer them a chance.
She's way more forgiving & caring than we give her credit

With this in mind and how the results of Vyse's test seems new to her, it makes me think she was not aware of Vyse's radiance when it happened initially.

There's another point that grabs my attention here:
It is likely Viper did research on radiance in humans and this voiceline with Omen could suggest she did tests with him regarding his specific radiance

Viper’s voiceline to Vyse is very interesting. We now know Vyse must have been exposed to a large amount of radiation. Her radiance seems to be rather different from others and actually more similar to Omen’s case. The two are more similar than I initially thought.

🔵Moving on to the new voicelines, the one from Omen and Viper is honestly so funny, it is literally reminding me of this:

bsky.app/profile/shii...

Viper put the universe’s survival over her friendship with Brimstone and from one aspect it is painfully harsh but again, it is sacrifice. Keeping the loyalty to a friend vs keeping a universe from dying.
I love that KJ cares for Brim deeply & is always on the lookout for him!

🔵The Omega brim being overthrown has in fact shaken Brim enough for KJ to take notice too. She sees it as flat out betrayal, but Omega Viper mentions it was never about loyalty or betrayal, it was about “Doing what is necessary”.

Viper *is* one of the people who could understand why Fracture happened.
That said, Ω Viper said sth that could link to Chamber’s fears: “ We were miles ahead technologically, now they invade OUR world”
We all know who enabled α to reach Ω, Was Chamber's deal the correct move?

This has been a bit of a recurring theme. Chamber and Viper aren’t the only one who see it like this. Cypher also states it similarly in the Warm Up cinematic:

There is one point in this voicemail that catches my attention: “At some point, you’ll stand in the way of a needed sacrifice and I will act.” Keywords here are “Needed Sacrifice”. Isn’t that familiar?

🔵And Ω Viper’s words did have some effect:
α Brim has asked Viper if she’s ever thought of overthrowing him and I see Viper’s frankness & honesty here as refreshing. It's clear she was taken aback but I appreciate that she took his worry seriously

▶️I also still believe Omega Viper is fully aware of Alpha Cypher’s bug. I see the “ You want clarity? Here it is” right at the moment she steps closer to whichever mic is picking up her voice as a subtle nod to this. She *wants* the VP to hear this.

It is correct that Brim’s methods may need adjustment. You can’t keep doing the same thing when time goes on and you get no results, you need change, but at the same time, Viper’s “any means necessary” way is also not the way to go, however Omega earth *IS* desperate.

Imo Viper feels an increased weight of responsibility when their universe sees them as this “beloved and celebrated” heroes and they continue to let them down.

💡I think there is *something* happening on Alpha that is causing Radianite to be siphoned out of Omega and into Alpha.

This phenomenon could even be the very inspiration behind how Omega Killjoy even created the first version of the Spike.

🔶Look at this scene in "Why We Fight Back". This event here really really is looking like the implosion that takes place when a Spike detonates and sucks the radianite from the environment out:

How so? We don't know yet, we know that other than very few people on Alpha the population there is entirely unaware of Omega's existence, so how is it possible for them to be a threat?
Somewhere, something has happened that the balance between Alpha and Omega has been disturbed

I don't doubt that part of this "Alpha Threat" thing might be propaganda but I *do* think there are major parts of this story that we still don't know about and there is a very real possibility that Alpha *is* being a threat to Omega's existence.

What Omega Viper says here is not wrong. VALORANT's job is not just to be symbols of hope, they were not even formed to be seen as public heros.
Their job was defending their universe against radianite related threat & right now it's to help them survive by stopping the α threat

🔵Let’s start with Cypher’s office: The bug Fade & Cypher managed to plant in Legion’s system is delivering. It's clear other Ω agents are not as convinced as Sova, Breach & Yoru, so Viper is making it clear why they have removed Brim’s role as the leader:

🧵Patch 12.03 is here, lore friends! The bug Alpha Fade and Cypher planted in Omega’s systems has brought us insight into what's happening in the other universe!
Let’s get a lore thread going and see what we got!
