VALORANT Spray Wheel Settings: Equip Sprays and Keybind Basics (2023) [S3]
As of May 2023 [S3], the core VALORANT spray wheel settings work around your chosen Spray Keybind: hold it to open the wheel, or tap it to use Quick Spray. [S2] Quick Spray uses the spray in the top slot of your wheel, and the spray-wheel equip flow is located on the Collections page. [S4]
If you want to equip sprays, start with Collections. [S4] If you want to understand the input, the important distinction is tapping versus holding your chosen Spray Keybind. [S2] These are separate actions, so keep your spray selection and your input preference in mind when reviewing your setup.
This guide covers the behavior documented in Riot’s supplied patch-note excerpts. Those excerpts do not confirm the default keyboard key, the exact keybind-editing menu path, or current menu labels. Rather than guess, the guide separates confirmed behavior from details that still need checking.
Where to Equip Sprays
As of May 2023 [S3], Riot documents a spray-wheel equip flow on the Collections page. [S4] The same update replaces the Spray Carousel with a grid that supports searching, filtering, and sorting by Favorites. [S4]
Use Collections as your starting point when reviewing which sprays you want available. The documented grid gives you search, filter, and Favorites options for finding sprays. [S4] Choose whichever browsing approach suits the spray you are looking for, rather than treating every option as a required step.
- Look for the spray-wheel equip flow in Collections. [S4]
- Use the spray grid’s search or filtering tools when browsing. [S4]
- Pay attention to the top wheel slot: that is the spray used by Quick Spray. [S4]
- Look for the text and image identifying pre- or post-round-only sprays. [S4]
The supplied evidence does not establish the wheel’s total capacity or the exact sequence of clicks needed to assign a spray. For that reason, this is a location and behavior guide, not an unverified walkthrough of every button in the interface.
Tap Versus Hold: How the Spray Input Works
As of May 2023 [S3], holding your chosen Spray Keybind activates the in-game Spray Wheel. [S2] Tapping that keybind retains Quick Spray functionality. [S2] The quick action uses the spray located at the top of the wheel. [S4]
Think about which action you intend to use before pressing the input. For Quick Spray, tap; for the wheel, hold. [S2] If your goal is to change what Quick Spray uses, focus your review on the top-slot spray, because that slot determines the quick-action selection. [S4]
The supplied excerpt refers to your “chosen Spray Keybind,” but it does not name a default key. Avoid treating a keyboard letter from an unrelated guide as verified by this source.
Changing the Keybind: What Is Confirmed?
As of May 2023 [S3], the documented controls connect both wheel activation and Quick Spray to your chosen Spray Keybind. [S2] However, the supplied evidence does not show where to edit that binding or which menu labels lead to it.
For a keybind change, check the labels displayed in your own game rather than relying on an invented menu route. This article cannot provide a verified click-by-click rebinding procedure from the available excerpts.
The same limit applies to sensitivity and guidance options. No supplied excerpt establishes their exact labels or values, so there is no supported sensitivity recommendation here. Keep the confirmed input behavior separate from any additional controls you may be trying to investigate.
Cooldown Indicators and Restricted Sprays
As of May 2023 [S3], Riot documents an audio cue and a visible timer to indicate spray-wheel cooldowns. [S4] It also documents text and an image identifying pre- or post-round-only sprays. [S4]
Check those indicators when reviewing spray availability. The supplied excerpt does not list cooldown durations or establish a complete rule for every animated or audio spray, so avoid assuming that all such sprays share an identical restriction.
Riot also documents an “Empty Spray” option that allows a user to empty their wheel or keybind. [S4] Treat that documented option separately from a keyboard-rebinding walkthrough; the excerpt does not explain an editing procedure.
