The Valorant 5.07 Fracture map changes make the map a whole lot more like CS: GO with smoother corners and drops.
The new Fracture map changes look promising as Riot has remade cubbies, corners, and drops entirely. Players can now smoothly hold a spot without getting shot by numerous other angles.
Commenting on the changes, FPS Legend Shroud says these map changes are fantastic and look more appealing. Here is the video:
Let us take a look at what changed on the map.

Arcade
Arcade is wider since Riot removed a cubby to ensure attackers can better fend off defender aggression. This change benefits both sides.
B-Site Jump
They removed the jump-up stairs and smoothened them into a ramp to make it easier to hold sites and give freedom to move.
B Generator
A small corner is removed from this spot. Riot has also narrowed the area, making it easier to smoke off.
Defender Spawn
Riot removed a cubby on the back wall of defender spawn to make it smoother and simplify any retake attempts. This change will also prevent corner camping.
A Halls
The Devs have widened the area by removing the cubby in A Halls. This will easily let players take more space and allow for unrestricted movement.
A Site
Some minor changes include shifting the box on the top site from the middle to the back of the platform.
A Dish
A Dish has the most significant changes in this edition of the update. Instead of two lanes, there will be one singular lane.
The dish is an underutilized part of the map, and the devs made more changes here to encourage folks to use it more.
A Drop
Attackers will have more advantages as they will not have to do a 50/50 check. This can sometimes get them killed when peaking through A Main.
Defenders will also have much more cover to play around with this addition.

A Rope
A Rope is extended now; this change will allow defenders to have more sands control. Previously just one smoke was enough to get control of that area.
All these changes make Frafcture one of the most playable maps in the game besides Split.
