Valorant patch 12.09 nerfs Neon, shotguns, and tests MMR changes

Riot Games has released patch 12.09 for their tactical shooter Valorant, introducing significant nerfs to the agent Neon and shotguns. Neon's movement abilities are being curtailed, particularly when jumping, and her fuel regeneration will now only occur with a kill during her ultimate. Shotguns are also less accurate while moving, shifting their role from offensive to more defensive play. The patch also includes bug fixes and experimental changes to the MMR system outside of core game modes. AI
