Currently in the closed beta, Valorant has ten different characters to choose from. All of these characters fit into one of four roles: Duelist, Sentinel, Initiator, and Controller. While each character plays drastically different, they still each accomplish the basic function(s) of their role. (Or should, in the right ha
Breach is a great agent to pick up due to his high damage output and insane utility. His ultimate Rolling Thunder is one of the best in the game, stunning enemies in a line which allows his team to go in and wreak ha
The Boom Bot, or Battle Roomba, is a delightfully diabolical little machine that seems cute on the outside but will end up ruining your entire life. This is released in a line in front of you and bounces off walls in the opposite angle with which it made contact. Once it finds an enemy, it turns directly towards them and rushes them, attempting to explode right on top of t
Any small room in Valorant is just begging to be filled with Paint Shells. Any enemy foolish enough to be seeking refuge inside these rooms is going to need to choose between one of two deaths: death by explosion, or death by bullet. Either way, you've come out on
Sage is one of the few Agents in the game who can heal other Agents, which significantly raises her value. She can entirely stop team push by enemies with her slows and her wall. On top of this, her ultimate allows her to revive any dead member of her team, making the game essentially a
Positioning is everything at higher tiers of play and nobody does it quite like Fade. Her seize ability ties groups of enemies to a single location, preventing them from running away. Haunt also reveals enemies in a specific location, taking the guesswork out of attackers hiding in co
A Link – This is another spot that should be learnt by all players because of how powerful the information can be. Placing the Spycam on the panel over the roof pictured below provides information that is borderline game-breaking, and this might be changed soon as well.

Sentimental and social but also concerned with knowledge, Libras are team players who not only want to play for damage but also bring in something completely unique. Agents with a duality of carry potential and utility are ideal for t
Every agent in VALORANT has four unique abilities. Each ability offers some strategic element that determines what class an agent falls under. There are currently four classes in VALORANT to choose from. Initiators are agents who use their abilities to engage in a contested area. These agents are often the best at initiating large battles, hence their name. Duelists are agents who excel in single combat. Duelists' abilities help them secure kills, and you'll usually see a duelist's name at the top of the kills leaderbo
A key part of the game is the different Agents present in it. Agents are the player-controlled characters in Valorant , each of which possesses unique abilities and attributes. All the Agents are viable in the game, but some might yield more success compared to the rest, especially in a competitive mode. Here is every Agent in <a href="https://bchums.com/login/?action=failed&username=troywitherspoon&redirect_to">Valorant ranking guide</a> ranked, which will help players both in casual and competitive m
Let's take a look at one of the characters that created the most stir back when the Valorant closed beta first began: Raze. She's since been nerfed, but she is still a perfectly viable character to choose and can be a force of nature in the right ha
A Short – Near the rugs remains a solid spot to place the Spycam, however, Riot Games seems to dislike the area for this use. We have already seen this changed in a recent patch, partly as an exploit, partly for being too difficult to quickly and easily note where the Spycam is located.

Sova is VALORANT 's ultimate hunter. The initiator wields a bow and arrow that when shot, reveals enemies in a radius around the arrow. He can also use his bow to shoot a shock bolt that creates a field of static shock upon impact. Similar to Cypher's spy camera, Sova shoots out a spy drone that he can remotely pilot to spot out enemies. Sova's ultimate is a near global ability, which damages enemies in a straight line across the entire
A Tower – This is a great spot to experiment with, but like Bind: A Short, should see a change in the future. Placing the Spycam outside of the window near the decorative, upwards pointing rocks provides a high viewpoint, but too much cover for opponents to quickly ident
While this isn't usually going to completely eviscerate enemies outright, those that are already hurt are going to need to head for the hills when this comes out. And even if you don't kill an enemy with this, their lower health is going to make the eventual gunfight that much eas
Viper might not be the strongest agent, but she does have a niche of players that have mastered her. Her abilities all provide great utility to her team, from poison clouds to poison walls, and she shines the most when on defe<img src="https://img.rawpixel.com/s3fs-private/rawpixel_images/website_content/rm84-nam-09.jpg?w=400u0026dpr=1u0026fit=defaultu0026crop=defaultu0026auto=formatu0026fm=pjpgu0026q=75u0026vib=3u0026con=3u0026usm=15u0026bg=F4F4F3u0026ixlib=js-2.1.2u0026s=42d16bd801b56f61ede27442d6ab739c"; style="max-width:450px;float:left;padding:10px 10px 10px 0px;border:0px;" alt="Hand drawn penny farthing bicycle | Royalty free stock vector - 410756" />
