That would be all for Patch 11.08! Thanks for reading lore friends😊

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

This can be interesting on another angle too, due to this Chamber voiceline when he takes down enemy Kay/O:
"I create weapons of war and I destroy them."

💡There's a real possibility that Chamber is who built Kay/O in that alternative timeline. We'll see how it plays out

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

In Kay/O's trailer, among scenes of the Radiant War, when humanity's last hope is falling we can see a news feed read "Paris falls"... It is when humans are hanging on by a thread that Kay/O manages to finish the war by taking out Reyna.

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

Chamber here is quoting Victor Hugo's speech from September of 1870, that the city of Paris doesn't just belong to France but the entire world.

This is not the first time in the story that Paris is representing all of humanity with its ups and downs. We've seen this before...

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

⏺️One more point to talk about here that could potentially link up with Kay/O (/Tariq Porter) here the quote Chamber says in Last Contact cinematic:
"Whoever attacks Paris attacks the whole of humanity"

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

It’s only a guess but there’s been some hints about Brim and Kay/O’s past both in act key artworks and Ego’s MV, How much will these hints be explored remain to be seen ofc, but this voicemail *could* open a door to that conversation.

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

▶️Moving on to Tejo’s voice mail.Drinking with old friends… would it open up reminiscing about old losses?

11.08 voicemail
Good guy Tejo

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

So, no big burly ones but rather a tall, lanky, nerdy type 🤓? I see you Dr.Callas… but I digress 🤭

I think we could make a safe guess that Veto would stand somewhere on the right side of the agent height chart here

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

▶️Moving on to Viper’s email, this was so good lmfao.

She’s joking with Brim here a bit, as not only Brim's a barrel chested giant himself, Viper herself hired a fellow giant with Breach, note this line from her:

"Well done, Breach! I knew hiring you was a good idea."

2️⃣. Regulators most probably aren't part of the ATLAS org itself. They're a separate committee considering they were able to put ATLAS on trial and an org can’t really put itself on trial.

It's likely the Regulators are elected by Omega public as hinted in this Email in 6.11:

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

They are not authorized to venture to other worlds freely. ATLAS has broken this rule before and it was revealed very publicly which ended in a long trial for ATLAS.

What could such an incident that attacts public attention be? Currently my guess is Everett-Linde Facility.

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

Now Montrose mentions the Regulators put ATLAS through trials for years after catching them operating off-world.

This makes two points clear:

1️⃣.There are laws on Omega that limit ATLAS operations strictly as a defense force only in their own universe.

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

⏺️There is a committee, a sort of board of overseers at least in matters of interdimensional stability in Omega, called "The Regulators".

The first time we hear about them is in in patch 6.02 as directly overseeing ATLAS as an organization:

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

It was being done in total secrecy to basically force it on both α and Ω as a fait accompli.

Now that it's failed, the plan is to cover it up completely or face trial in disgrace, which brings us to the see a point which was briefly touched upon in Episode 6 ⬇️

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

▶️Starting with the Email on Corrode, after their failure in Paris Delacroix has filed for resignation which Capt. Montrose is not accepting.

It is now clear it was not just the VALORANT Legion that was kept in the dark about this whole Paris plan, none outside ATLAS knew

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 3h

Heyo local lore dealer here with the recap for Patch 11.08! Crisis averted, Paris is safe, let’s see what we got:

📲Voicemail from Tejo
💻ATLAS Email on Corrode

4️⃣ "Yeahhhh, good meals and good payouts. Let’s wrap this up – T owes me dinner."

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 5d

3️⃣"That last place only sold Tsukemen twice a year. The waitlist, the queue, the contract: all those obstacles between me and that bowl – and I didn’t get a single bite."

2️⃣ "Did you forget I was there, too? You could hardly keep your eyes, OR your nose, on the mission. You must’ve eaten like, what, 400 of those things? Just like Japan, all that soup…"

🧵A thread of Veto's social take over illustrations from VALORANT's official accounts, I'll be updating as they add more:

1️⃣ "Appreciate the meal, mon ami. Now all I need is a side of pão de queijo. Remember that, T? Four days straight watching one ship – the bread was almost better than the payout."

Oh, the pieces linked up better than I'd guess! :)

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 7d

I am convinced anyone that has a link to Radivores is irresistibly drawn to boba and Veto is no exception...

PS. He doesn't know it yet but he's going to have to share that 🤭

I'd like to wait until after we get to hear his voice lines and see what more we can learn here! I am actually eager to know more about his story!

Thanks for reading friends!😊

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 7d

The last shot is Veto once again reunited with his comrades this time better than ever!

There are some questions that remain here, like how Kay/O and Deadlock’s abilities should theoretically be effective on him but at least in game play that doesn’t seem to be the case… 🤔

Strawberry7 @strawberry7.bsky.social · 7d

Last in line is the man who took Raze under his wing like a younger sister: Breach, who tries to push Veto back with his ultimate… and well… you can guess the outcome…

Yeah they did lose but moral of the story is this: "Don't mess with this baiana!"
