Each map shown thus far has unique angles of approach and great map flow that separates itself from tri-lane map design that is commonplace in most FPS titles today . While having solid maps is key to a great competitive scene, starting with 4 might bore even the most devoted of players unless Riot can release more post-launch promp This is a fantastic way to take care of an enemy planting the spike if you don't have a line-of-sight on them; they can try to stick the plant through the damage, but they'll pay for it with their l Sova's Shock Bolt is an electrical arrow that deals AoE damage after it hits. The closer enemies are to the center of the blast, the more damage it will inflict. Arrows can also be bounced off of surfaces up to two times. Also, the further the bow string is pulled back, the further the arrow will tra Orbital Strike is Brimstone's Ultimate Ability and it allows players to perform a laser airstrike using a tactical map. This laser deals a massive amount of damage to all players inside it with more damage occurring the closer a player is to the center of the str The trio of crashies, AZK and brax, along with CS:GO stars Tyler "Ska" Latham and Jonathan " EliGE " Jablonowski dominated their opposition this tournament, proving themselves worthy of being some of the first pro VALORANT players signed to a team. As the competitive scene becomes more and more clear, T1, along with their rivals Sentinels and Gen.G, are looking as though they may be the early teams to be b Viper's Poison Cloud is a gas grenade that constantly leaks out poisonous gas until it is manually turned off by Viper or she runs out of toxic fuel. This fuel is used for both Poison Cloud and Toxic Screen. This cloud obscures vision and damages players inside it. The grenade can be picked up again to be thrown la 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 <a href="https://WWW.Fpthoughts.com/articles/bastion-s-overpowered-perk-shakes-overwatch-2-season-15-meta.html">bastion new perk</a> 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 Many have likened it to Overwatch's hand-drawn style with a colorful cast of characters. There is a certain likeness, but weapons and locations don't ooze a unique style that sets it apart in the FPS market. Textures look flat and particle effects are simple, likely for visual clarity. It is a difficult balance between style and visual clarity that Riot needs to nail, but it currently lacks a distinct style like the flashiness of Overwatch or punchy visuals of Counter-Str The bane of any competitive FPS title is balance. If maps feel biased towards one side or if weapons feel too strong, it can reveal a meta that is unpleasant to partake in while the developers spend months changing As of now, 10 playable characters and 40 abilities have been made available in the Valorant beta. More are sure to be revealed before the game's proper launch, but here is what to reference for closed beta players and viewers al Brimstone's Ultimate Ability is his Orbital Strike. Activating this is almost identical to how you activate the Sky Smoke; the difference being instead of dropping smoke from the sky, you're dropping giant death lasers. This does heavy damage over time, so if an enemy doesn't hightail it out of there immediately, they're going to be watching the rest of the round from the spectator cam It's not an overstatement to say that T1 and Nerd Sreet Gamers' tournament was incredibly fun to watch. From Hiko's insane 1v4 clutch to EliGE popping off at every possible moment, VALORANT proved that it can live up to the hype as an esp The first of Omen's abilities is his powerful Shadow Step. A move that allows Omen to teleport to an indicated location, allowing the character to escape to new cover, take high-ground, or simply escape the given danger. Using Shadow Step to take high ground is its primary function, as it allows the character access to some seemingly inaccessible locations. Be aware of Shadow Step's long start-up period, and take this downside into account before you use the ability to either flank or escape a combat encoun Players like sinatraa and brax, who were both high-profile signings, did shine but so did lesser known players like mouseSpaz's Yassine "Subroza" Taoufik and Prospects' Ryan "Winsum" Johns. It's possible that the rush for organizations to start bidding wars over big name players may be misguided. It could prove beneficial for teams to do their own scouting, and sign lesser known players for less mo Each Agent excels in their own way can offer strength, support, or utility. A major problem that can arise is playing with teammates who refuse to use anyone but their main character. A team full of Phoenix mains who refuse to compromise will probably do poorly against a team with players who understand what a certain map and team composition needs. This does not mean that players need to become experts in every Agent, but understanding how Sage or Brimstone can help with their utility for something like a push will widen a player toolkit and make them more likely to succ
