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
Also considered one of the strongest agents in the game is Brimstone. As a controller, Brimstone's abilities can flush the enemies out of hiding into open ground. He has a incendiary grenade and a powerful ultimate that deals high amounts of damage to anyone caught in its cir
Similar to Viper, Cypher can completely hold down a point by himself. His abilities allow him to control multiple choke points at once. Despite how crucial Cypher's kit is to his team, his utility heavy abilities lack in damage, and it's not uncommon to see a Cypher at the bottom of the kills leaderbo
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
As VALORANT is still in beta, Riot Games is constantly working to ensure the game is working as intended by design, and this means patching out Spycam exploits on each map as they appear. As a result, each patch often brings map changes, some meant to help overall gameplay, but many with Cypher and his Spycam in mind. These and future patches should be observed closely to ensure the best Cypher play and counterplay. This guide will focus on patch 0.5, with the goal of thinking long-term about how best to use Cypher and his tool

But she can also be a maestro capable of manipulating the enemy team into bad situations in the hands of the slower, more thought-out player, too. She can force enemies to give themselves away or abandon their cover, forcing them right into either her or a teammate's sight lines, all without putting herself at very much r
As the latest Sentinel added to Valorant , Vyse has an excessive focus on holding sites compared to any other Sentinel released so far. All the abilities of Vyse help her to execute a pre-planned strategy, making it difficult to use Vyse effectively in attacking rounds before planting the Sp
Raze is an agent of chaos, with an ability to dish out immense amounts of damage when mastered. Her Boom Bot can be annoying if players are caught by it unawares, and her Blast Packs and Paint Shells do serious dam
"Schemes" are a great way to describe what Omen does on the field of battle. The controller can send out shadows in the shape of spheres that block vision. Omen also fires a projectile that can travel through walls, reducing the vision of anyone it touches. The agent also has two teleportation abilities, allowing him to travel a short distance, or teleport to any location on the
The ability that drew the bulk of the ire Raze's way back before the nerf, Paint Shells, is a cluster bomb; it explodes in an initial radius, dealing damage to the unfortunate souls caught in the blast, but then scatters out four smaller explosions, all but ensuring the demise of the unlucky enough to have been in the center of the blast to begin w
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.

Although Geminis aren't particularly fiery personalities, they like versatile gameplay and change. Heroes with carry potential through damage as well as utility for their own team are a perfect fit for Gemi
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
Brimstone's stim beacon gives him and his teammates rapid-fire, and his sky smokes block vision. Brimstone is the perfect agent for any player who wants to lead their team to victory through gaining positional advantages in fig
Let's take a look at one of the characters that created the most stir back when the <a href="http://www.unpop.org/blog/member.asp?action=view&memName=DanutaHammons72938">valorant News</a> 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
