Looking at the Agent roster reveals a surprising amount of vision denial skills. From blinding players to erecting flaming walls, most characters have some form of gaining or blocking locational informat
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
Defense is half of the name of the game, and agents who can deal massive amounts of damage with abilities can help push players off point and hold them at bay. While there are plenty of agents that can deal damage (Raze, Brimstone, Breach) the newest addition to the game has proven to be the best damage dealer, and that new agent is R
With Omen’s ability to get to a lot of places on the map with relative ease, he has the unique opportunity to create pinches with his teammates, hitting the enemy team from two very different angles. Map knowledge is going to help make this possible, as will good communication with your t
Communicating with your team is not rooted in having a microphone, but just being active with your team. Using game chat or the ping system in Valorant are all effective ways to talk to your teammates. So not having a microphone is no excuse for not talking to your teammates. Just like any other team-based game or activity teamwork is the single most important way to get results. Being able to work well with your fellow players can yield some excellent results, allowing for easy rank
Released back in 2009, League of Legends has received an overwhelming amount of support since it released. Valorant will likely receive a similar amount of care with new maps, Agents, and possibly new weapons. As long as the development team stays on top of community requests and balance issues, Valorant might become the next major FPS title on the market for years to c
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 the tak
Both agents have vastly different abilities that help them locate players, but Sova is a must-have on any team. While Cypher’s abilities may allow for more damage mitigation, Sova can ultimately locate players faster and eas
Sure, not every creative flank or bold play is going to go your way, but if you continue hitting the enemy team with a variety of aggressive plays, you’re going to have some massive success on some rou
This smoke can also be used to the advantage of the defenders. This smoke can force Attackers to enter a site blindly, making them easy pickings unless they choose the right angle to look at immediately upon leaving the sm
One of Omen’s abilities, Shrouded Step, allows him to teleport a short distance. In the first few seconds of a round, this can do a lot to confuse the enemy team; they’ll be coming out and looking at where your team should have to exit from, but meanwhile, you’ve teleported somewhere they weren’t looking and have an easy kill on your ha
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
Games like Rainbow Six: Siege have shown the industry that gun skill can matter as much as strategic planning. Valorant seems to focus on both and, from closed beta footage so far, has nailed the impact of both. Learning every Agent and the spray patterns of every gun will be a long journey that Counter-Strike players can relate to. The reward is massive, as you get immediate feedback at how much better you’re becoming by placing more headshots or landing skills in more intense scenar
In a game like freya overwatch or League of Legends, players have an arsenal of characters to choose from meaning a team could be composed of all tanks, all attackers, too little defense, not enough offense, etc. While the pool of Agents is small in Valorant, it is important to note that as a rule of thumb, a team should be composed of agents that cover all of the team’s bases. Obviously, Valorant plays much differently than any other tactical shooter, but good team composition can help players win more rounds. Here are the categories that team composition should co
