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 🤭

#VALORANT #Veto #ValorantArt

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!😊

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… 🤔

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!"

That also didn't work but don’t lose hope yet Raze, your girlfriend is ready to push him back with her lock down… Or is she? Because Veto with his ultimate active can withstand any debuff, yes that includes your flashes Yoru!

But Brim's not about to let him get to Raze, there comes his ult which Veto also tanks, thanks to his ultimate evolution! Just look at Raze's face when she sees that Brim has her back 😁

The second part of the trailer shows Veto in current day, stronger than ever, but it is also amazingly a show of how everyone in the VP is protecting Raze 😀
Our bombshell uses her ultimate on Veto who easily stops it

We know Radivores are likely not from earth but they can mimic animals in looks & abilities.
Seems like the radivore whose genetic material helped rebuild Veto’s body could've mimicked an octopus.
Octopuses can regenerate limbs & the general shape of an octopus is visible here:

Veto’s DNA has been linked with radivore DNA. This Mutation is shown really beautifully in this section of the animation, notice the spiralling of Veto’s genes and the radivore genes and how a hand and an eye grows out of it?

We can see that now Veto’s arm and eye is recreated with radivore genetic material and his arm sports the same radianite scales that Gekko’s little buddies have

My first guess was a Radivore-Human symbiotic relationship but it seems this isn't symbiosis but a mutation.

They're in the thick of a fight in an urban setting, it’s not clear where it is they're fighting, but this seems to be before Tejo has his tech, while it is still *after* The first light as we can see Waylay has her radiant markings. A grenade then costs Veto his right arm & eye.

His introduction cinematic has two parts.

The first part is happening in a flashback to the time he was in a group with Tejo and Waylay.

Back then he was already a competent fighter and clearly well trusted by his team.

Agent 29, Veto, is here and honestly a candidate for the most fitting call-sign ever.
We’re still waiting for his voicelines but I really liked his cinematic introduction!

🧵Let’s get into it, who is he? What theories can we have about him? #VALORANT Lore thread time!

Oh boy...

Agent 29 teaser 📲

I'd say I like him quite a bit :D

#VALORANT

That would be all for the V25 lore summary! Once again, Thanks for reading friends!!😊

This is where we will be when the cinematic due on October 4th picks up the rest of the story! It also seems like KJ is providing agents with a report on Megaspike as seen in the latest teaser!

Despite their failure to recapture Oran & Ruben ATLAS plans to push ahead with Megaspike deployment.

Thanks to Oran and Ruben, Chamber's confirms ATLAS' plans on attacking Paris & also provides the VP with Megaspike’s schematics so KJ gets started on finding a way to disable it.

In the meantime Kingdom Corps’ First Light celebration is reaching its final destination in α Paris.

Tejo suggests another recruit to Brim to serve as VP’s eyes & ears inside the celebrations as well as Mary’s bodyguard when she is performing her song for the opening ceremony.

Very shortly after the first test Oran and Ruben manage to successfully escape ATLAS with Chamber’s help.

After successfully swapping some particles in a test, the first large-scale test of the device is set to be done in α Paris.
As it turns out some parts of Ω France are devastated to almost wasteland status and they plan to restore Paris by swapping it with its α counterpart.

At its core the device is built based on the research that was going on in Everett-Linde Facility (Fracture) and It is designed to swap multidimensional positions and particles.

Unlike normal Spike that teleports radianite in a certain radius from one universe to another, the Megaspike is a device built on the basis of a chemical bond between Alpha Radianite and Omega Salianite.

None but the top brass of ATLAS knows about this project as they're working on it under the cover of helping locals with a reality stabilization project to prevent Valorant Legion from suspecting anything.

The VP however set up stakeout teams to monitor ATLAS's activities.

Through the Emails found on each patch in Corrode we learn that ATLAS has captured Oran McEneff and Ruben Pontes (The two scientists who managed to escape Fracture to Omega and hide) and has made them work on a highly classified project for them: The Megaspike.

Things start sounding a lot less philanthropic once we get to read internal ATLAS correspondence on the map.

Once again we see Lt.Delacroix, a high ranking ATLAS member that we’d known through the Lotus story arc; He's no longer stationed in India and has been moved to Corrode.

This is where ATLAS comes in, they take in & refine the salt, package it in solution form (Salianite) in special capsules & get it ready for redistribution.

On the surface, all of this seems quite noble but things might not be what they look like.

The constant winds & storms spray the island with large amounts of radianite salt that crystallize on almost any surface.

People of the village are determined to not lose their homes so they are staying & have taken up the upkeep of the village through mining all the salt.

The VP sends a team to the site. The location is suffering from the climate & reality instability.
The waters around the island have retreated a lot, leaving a huge salty flat land behind.

A dedicated weather station observes the large storm, providing alerts/info as needed.
