VALORANT developers admitted that multiple Jett abilities are bugged in the current patch, causing her to be less powerful than she should be. However, they don't plan to fix it immediately, because according to the developers the issue is not severe enough to warrant immediate action.
Jett's weapon equip from her Tailwind dash is currently longer than it should be, and her Updraft costs more than it should in the current build of the game. According to the developers, neither the issues are game-breaking enough or affect the competitive integrity of the game to require a full patch redeploy, so there likely won't be a fix for Jett until patch 3.09.
A lot of players, mostly Jett mains, were upset at the prospect of their character being broken until Riot gets around to fixing it. Many of them questioned the idea that the bugs aren't affecting the competitive integrity of the game.
While some folks expressed frustration that the fix likely won't be coming soon, most VALORANT fans took the opportunity to meme on Riot instead.
Team ENVY requested that Riot fix the Jett bug, but only for their star player Yay.
Other pro players like Autimatic and LG aproto jokingly suggested that the functional nerf of a bug is fine, and maybe they should just leave it.
For now, if you are a Jett main, it's a good time to test out another Agent, at least until Riot deems Jett mains worthy of having their character working properly.
