For Cypher to operate at his fullest capability, the player controlling the mysterious character needs to have a strong game-sense and map understanding. Cypher is at his most powerful when he is placing his traps, camera, and Cyber Cage in key choke points or in troublesome and sneaky positi
I’m going to get flack for this. But to be honest, one factor makes Omen less viable in the competitive scene: his predictable abilities leave him extremely vulnerable. His smokes are good, but they require manual placement and actuate very slowly. While Brimstone has the same grievances, he can place three smokes with much greater range, rendering Omen’s a worse alternative. His teleportation is also limited in range and quite slow to actuate. As far as his ultimate, it can be quite good, but the fact that everyone is acutely alerted upon its use makes it very difficult to be steal
The second game that comes to mind, when comparing Valorant to any other video game, is Overwatch . Riot Games’ brand new shooter doesn’t share Overwatch ‘s gameplay mechanics or gunplay, as it does with Counter-strike: Global Offensive, but the Valorant and Overwatch have some things in comm
As for what to buy, that’s going to take some trial and error. Many weapons are strikingly similar to CS:GO vehicular combat , so it’s best to experiment to find the best weapons for your own skill set. Don’t skimp out on shields each round, but again, experiment to see if light or heavy are adequate for your playst
Valorant’s roster is full of unique and interesting characters, with a wide array of play-styles and gameplans. Choosing a character to master and stick with is one of the hardest choices in the entire game. One of the most interesting of the cast is the mysterious Omen. A shadowy figure with a wide variety of self-sustaining abilities. Of the cast of Valorant, Omen is the most unique in a variety of ways. The character, from a visual standpoint, is one of the most appealing among the cast and provides a nice mixture of individual abilities and team-supporting abilities. His abilities have a variety of functions that are specific to Omen. This guide will provide aspiring Omen players with an overview of his abilities and the most optimal way to play the charac
Jett is certainly a fan-favorite, so I imagine this is where I’ll get the most backlash. Heck, even I play Jett more than the other agents. Her abilities are endlessly fun, with speedy dashes and quick, versatile smokes. Jett’s primary function is to outmaneuver and overwhelm opponents, requiring clever movement and precise aim with her knives. In the right hands, she can run away with match MVP easily. However, aside from her less-than-unique smokes, her abilities are rather inward. That is to say, Jett doesn’t have a ton of avenues to assist her team, other than to slay
Omen’s Dark Cover is comparable to Brimstone’s Sky Smoke in which the shadowy figure fires a black smoke cloud and it will land at his marked location. Dark Cover is capable of traveling through walls, similar to his Paranoia ability. Making Omen’s ability to place Dark Cover nearly limitless. This move has incredible versatility during a match and allows the character to provide some solid visual cover. In conjunction with Omen’s other abilities, Dark Cover can provide some sneaky synergy with Omen’s toolkit. However, be aware that Dark Cover shoots from the same plane as you are standing. So if you wish to place it on high ground you will need to stand on high ground before firing the cl
Phoenix’s Blazewall is decent for blocking vision, but mainly a great way to heal up quickly. His fireball is capable of self-healing too, not to mention blocking and damaging foes. Lastly, Run It Back gives Phoenix a free chance to push into any room, instantly reviving him if taken down during its duration; His ultimate ability is unique and endlessly use
Taking the competitive online market by storm, Riot’s Valorant _ has emerged seemingly out of nowhere. Being hidden behind the “drops” of _Valorant beta keys hidden behind Twitch channels, the title has taken over the streaming platform and established itself as the new big game. Combining the realistic qualities of Counter-Strike with the hero-shooter genre of titles such as Overwatch and Rainbow Six Siege there is no surprise Valorant is as popular as it is. Combining two of the most addicting games ever created into one game, Valorant has a stranglehold on both the Twitch market and will certainly be a major player in the context of E-Spo
Riot Games is the developer behind one of the biggest MOBAs in the world, that being League of Legends . As such, the company seems to know what it is doing in putting together a well-crafted and team-oriented online experience. So when it announced a closed beta for Valorant , a single-life first-person shooter, many were excited to see what Riot Games would come up with. Thus far, Valorant hasn’t disappointed, as the game seems to be a wonderful mix of multiple other shooters, while still being its own unique g
