Patch Notes/9.04

The following is a list with all the changes made in patch v9.04.
Hey folks! It’s Ash back again with Patch Notes 9.04. Thanks for the warm welcome last time!
We’re adding a new Agent to our roster, Vyse. She’s a Sentinel with a unique kit that will surely make you hesitate before stomping onto a site. I recommend heading to the Range to work on your pistol game since you’ll be using it more when going against her!
Additionally, Split is entering Unrated and Swift Play queues on Console, and we’ve fixed quite a few bugs. Let us know what you think about the update and we’ll see you on the battlefield!
==All Platforms==

*The Unlimited Abilities cheat will now add 100% fuel and remove any fuel consumption from 's , 's , and 's and 
===Agent Updates===
* goes live!
*Abilities:
**: EQUIP an Arc Rose. Target a surface and FIRE to place a stealthed Arc Rose, or ALT Fire to place the Arc Rose through it. REUSE to blind all players looking at it. This ability can be picked up to be REDEPLOYED.
**: EQUIP filaments of liquid metal. FIRE to place a hidden wall trap. When an enemy crosses, an indestructible wall bursts from the ground behind them. The wall lasts for a brief time before dissipating.
**: EQUIP a nest of liquid metal. FIRE to launch. Upon landing, the nest becomes invisible. When ACTIVATED, it sprawls out into a large razorvine nest which slows and damages all players who move through it.
**: EQUIP a bramble of liquid metal. FIRE to send the metal erupting from you as a torrent of metal thorns, JAMMING enemy primary weapons after a brief windup.
===Player Behavior Updates===
We will be issuing a behavioral manual evaluation to players who have a pattern of engaging in comms abuse in order to create a healthier comms experience in VALORANT.
