Before tackling the ranked game-type it is important that players understand how the game mode actually works. Players will win matches and gradually rank up into higher and higher ranks, each rank having 3 tiers within the umbrella term for the ranking before they can be promo
Brimstone begins the top-5 lineup on my list, bringing the best smokes in VALORANT for both offensive and defensive team plays. His incendiary grenade can zone out hot points; His Stim Beacon can grant rapid fire. Brimstone’s ultimate ability, Orbital Strike, has the capability to outright kill players caught within its range. Although not the largest area-of-effect, the strike hits quick and h
Phoenix is unarguably one of the best offensive characters. His Curveball ability is quick and maneuverable, completely obfuscating opponents’ screens. If a Phoenix player knows where you are when attacking, surviving his “flash-peak-shoot” combo is very diffic
Raze’s grenades deal absurd damage, exploding in two, powerful phases. Her Boom Bot both locates and attacks nearby enemies. Even if shot at, a crafty Raze player can use that window to take the foe down. Her Blast Packs not only pack a punch, but also allow Raze to bounce upwards. Consequently, Raze players will often find new spots with cheeky angles. Finally, her Show Stopper is insanely powerful, dealing massive damage within a sizable area. Halo rocket launcher, any
The Valorant ranking system is as follows: iron, bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, immortal, and finally valorant. As mentioned earlier as you improve and win matches within your rank you will have to progress through 3 tiers before you move onto the next major ranking. The only rank that does not follow this 3 tier rule is the last one available, valor
Omen’s teleport also allows him to get some cool vertical angles not available to many different characters. Being in an unorthodox spot can really throw an enemy off, as they have to choose where to look when they round a corner. If they choose wrong, and they usually will if you’re somewhere high that is generally inaccessible to most characters, then you’ve got another free kill, ripe for http://www.fpthoughts.com the tak
A common phenomenon of hero-style shooters is a player who hops onto a competitive match, and instantly locks their main character. These players are referred to as “one-trick ponies” due to their skill being deeply connected to their one and only character main. If their particular main is locked from their use they become more of a liability than an asset to their t
Another reason for the necessity of communication is the common occurrence of call-outs within a game of Valorant. A player may see an enemy player attempting to flank their team, and if that player does not communicate that with their team than they are certainly going to be quickly wiped out. However, having the ability to quickly say that the enemy player is attempting to flank can be the difference between winning and los
Omen – An assassin who uses the dark to his advantage, ensuring his foes cannot see him before the kill. He can use a special shot to restrict enemy vision and teleport a short distance after a delay, akin to Reaper from Overwatch . His signature ability is an invisible shot that bursts into a sphere of obscuring shadow, and his ultimate allows him to appear anywhere on the map, go briefly incorporeal, and appear back at his initial location with full health when kil
This phenomenon is exactly why a player should learn multiple agents. So that a player isn’t just a one-trick pony. For multiple reasons, the one-trick pony dilemma is a major issue in these types of games. If a match is playing out and your Phoenix is constantly being shut down by the enemy team, then you probably should switch to another agent that counters what is shutting your Phoenix down. Or as mentioned, someone locks you out of your main, you should always have a backup character if nee
And Jett – Perhaps the most mobile of the characters. She can toss out a sphere of obscuring fog and also launch herself upwards to reach advantageous positions. Her signature ability is a short dash forwards (think Tracer) and her ultimate arms her with several knives. She can fling the knives to deal damage or kill with a headshot, and she gets them all back on a kill (that’s her bel
It has been a running joke that Riot Games has not really earned the “Games” part of its title, since it only had the one massively successful MOBA in League of Legends . These days the company’s ambition seems to be to move away from being a one horse house and expanding into new projects, including the new FPS game formerly known as Project A , now officially called Valor
Among Valorant’s long-list of strengths, one of the major factors contributing to its popularity is its cast of interesting and unique characters. The roster is filled to the brim with personality, identity, versatility, varying play-styles, and unique and interesting visual designs. With such a vast and appealing roster, one of the hardest choices a new player will make is which character they wish to “main” and master. Of the cast, one of the most powerful and interesting is the fire-casting Phoenix. With a well-rounded arsenal of self-sustaining abilities and team-supporting abilities, Phoenix is one of the best characters in Valor
