This is the cheaper rifle of the two and packs less of a punch. Headshots are a one-shot kill, but if you miss it will give your enemy an easy chance to take you down. It can be hip-fired or using its 2.5x zoom sc
This rifle only has a semi-automatic firing mode, but does solid damage. It has a better zoom than any of the other rifles with a 1.5x scope, yet only has a small 12 round magazine. It’s strong point is long-range shooting because there’s no drop-off in dam
The two heavy weapons in VALORANT are the Ares and the Odin. These machine guns have huge ammo capacity compared to the other guns in the game. They can be used for stopping aggressive teams with the sheer firepower they can unleash. The downside to these guns is that they require a brief spin-up time before they shoot at the maximum rate of f
Resurrection does what it claims to do: brings an ally back to life. By using this ability, the ally will be brought back to life with full health. This is probably one of the most valuable ultimate abilities in Valorant and must be used cautiously, so enemies don’t try to stop
Support plays a huge role in any team-based shooter. Being able to heal, or even revive, teammates can give a team a huge upper-hand. Luckily for Valorant players, there is only one support style agent to choose at the moment: S
With this aggressive playstyle, it can be pretty easy to confuse the enemy, as well. Omen can be almost anywhere, and a good Omen is going to keep the enemy looking over their shoulders for the majority of the ma
The Blast Pack will stick to a surface after being thrown. After enough time passes, or it is manually detonated, it will explode. Raze can use this ability to launch herself onto higher ground like Overwatch ‘s Junkr
Omen, like a few other characters in Valorant , has access to smoke cover with his Dark Cover ability. He can use this ability through walls, and can precisely control the distance at which the smoke activates, making him the Agent with some of the most accurate smoke in the g
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
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
Valorant’s roster is full of unique and interesting characters, with a wide array of play-styles and gameplans. Choosing a character to master and stick with is one of the hardest choices in the entire game. One of the most interesting of the cast is the mysterious Omen. A shadowy figure with a wide variety of self-sustaining abilities. Of the cast of Valorant, Omen is the most unique in a variety of ways. The character, from a visual standpoint, is one of the most appealing among the cast and provides a nice mixture of individual abilities and team-supporting abilities. His abilities have a variety of functions that are specific to Omen. This guide will provide aspiring Omen players with an overview of his abilities and the most optimal way to play the charac
For a team to be composed of all the right parts, teams will need to diversify their agents. Luckily, with there only being nine agents to choose from at the moment, making a diverse team should not be too hard. All agents have the same amount of health, and weapons can be purchased in the game. So, unlike Overwatch, characters are stuck with the same weapon each round, but they are stuck with the same Agent for an entire match. This makes picking the rights agents even more important than e
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
Viper is an incredible offensive agent as two of her abilities recharge and uses fuel from her poison tank. She can put up a smoke wall to blind enemies, throw down a toxic area of effect grenade, and can summon a poisonous smoke cloud to help choke a point. But most importantly, her ultimate ability fills an area with toxic Cs:go Smoke grenade tactics that blinds enemies. The area is big enough to fill an entire point which makes it easy for a team to move on to a point and plant the bomb before the enemy team figures out where players are loca
