2. Valorant - Introduction
● Valorant is a free-to-play multiplayer tactical first-person
shooter developed and published by Riot Games, for
Microsoft Windows. First teased under the codename
Project A in October 2019, the game began a closed beta
period with limited access on April 7, 2020, followed by
official release on June 2, 2020.Valorant is one of the
most talked-about first-person shooter games right now.
● It is a free-to-play 5v5 character-based tactical shooter
that has been developed and published by Riot Games.
The video game was released in closed beta earlier this
year and has since grown into massive popularity,
garnering millions of users within a short span.

3. JETT - The Fastest
Agent
● From Korea comes Jett, an agile fighter who prioritizes
movement over everything. Her abilities include a
teleportation-based dash and an updraft that lets her
reach higher ledges. She also has a smoke bomb ability
to hinder sightlines and a powerful Bladestorm ultimate
that deals moderate-to-heavy damage and remains
accurate even while she's moving.
● Jett's Ultimate allows her to wield several throwing knives
that deal moderate damage and kill on headshots. Getting
a kill replenishes your daggers and you can choose to
throw them one at a time or throw all remaining daggers
in a short-ranged burst. Jett is one of the few Agents with
a passive ability. Holding the jump key while in the air will
allow Jett to slow her descent.

4. OMEN - The Shadow
Hunter
● Omen hunts in the shadows. He renders enemies blind,
teleports across the field, then lets paranoia take hold as his
foe scrambles to learn where he might strike next.
● A man with mysterious origins, Omen is focused on
hindering the vision of his enemies with things like an orb
that strikes those in his sights with nearsightedness and
another that bursts to obscure the vision of everyone
nearby. He can also teleport a short distance, or use his
ultimate to teleport anywhere on the map as a shadow.
Omen’s all about gaining map control with smokes that'll
travel through walls, and a teleport maneuver which enables
him to bridge gaps or juke enemies at the click of a
button.his ultimate to teleport anywhere on the map

5. RAZE - The Explosive Agent
● Raze loves explosives. With her blunt-force-trauma
playstyle, she excels at flushing entrenched enemies
and clearing tight spaces with a generous dose of
"boom".Raze's playstyle is very aggressive compared to
many of the other agents in VALORANT, as most of her
abilities are focused on mobility and damage instead of
intel gathering or support.
● She is one of the few agents where most of her abilities
are primarily meant to deal damage, namely Paint Shells
and Showstopper, and has commonly been criticized by
the community for said abilities.Raze’s cluster grenades
to be her greatest asset. They do big damage and are
great for flushing out enemies, finishing them off, and
erasing any hopes of a group push.

6. BREACH - The Initiator
Breach fires powerful, targeted kinetic blasts to aggressively clear a
path through enemy ground. The damage and disruption he inflicts
ensures no fight is ever fair.Breach's main gimmick is the ability to use
all of his abilities through the geometry of the map,whether it is
through walls, roofs, or terrain. This ability set rewards experienced
players for knowing the maps well.
His abilities also seem to reward an aggressive playstyle despite most
of his abilities being crowd-control based.If there’s a wall, this guy
absolutely loves it. He can fire flashbangs which’ll attach to them and
even earthquakes which’ll rattle enemies on the other side. While a
number of his abilities have a long wind up time, they’re great for both
attacking a site or counterattacking if you’re on the defence.

7. BRIMSTONE - The Controller
● Brimstone’s orbital arsenal ensures his squad always has the
advantage. His ability to deliver utility precisely and safely
make him the unmatched boots-on-the-ground commander.
● Bimstone is a powerful commander that utilizes incendiary
grenades, smokescreen airstrikes, and rapid-fire-inducing
stim beacons to damage enemies and buff teammates. His
impressive Orbital Strike ultimate summons an enormous
laser that destroys anyone who doesn't move out of the radius
fast enough.Brimstone’s able to pinpoint exactly where he
wants three smoke grenades to land simultaneously near his
position, and we’ve found this to be exceptionally useful when
defending a site.

8. PHONEIX - The
Firey Agent
● Phoenix’s star power shines through in his fighting
style,igniting the battlefield with his flash and flare.
Whether he’s got backup or not,he’s rushing in to
fight on his own terms.The fiery Brit can wield the
power of flame to essentially reshape the battlefield
into how he sees fit.
● With exploding fireballs that damage enemies and
heal him, a vision-blocking wall of fire, and a blinding
fire burst, Phoenix is great at manipulating the flow of
the match. His ultimate grants him the ability to be
reborn if he's killed during its duration, galvanizing
him to make bold moves he wouldn't otherwise make
.Phoenix can heal himself by standing in his own fire.

9. SAGE - The Saviour
● Sage creates safety for herself and her team wherever she goes.
Able to revive fallen friends and stave off forceful assaults, she
provides a calm center to a hellish battlefield.The most
prominent support character to date hails from China and brings
orbs that heal allies, slow enemies, and create barriers out of the
ground to impede the flow of a match.
● Her ultimate ability allows her to resurrect a fallen ally,which is
significant in a game with no respawns.Let’s not forget she can
point and click on someone to heal them, which can be a
difference maker in a close round - especially the pistol where an
ally might be heavily tagged. The amount she brings to a team is
pretty staggering.

10. ● Viper deploys an array of poisonous chemical devices to control
the battlefield and cripple the enemy’s vision. If the toxins don’t
kill her prey, her mind games surely will.A predator that deals in
poison and chemical warfare. She has exploding projectiles that
spill acid on the battlefield, as well as a poison-gas emitter, and
a toxic gas screen to prevent passage.
● Her ultimate emits a toxic cloud that conceals her location and
can highlight enemies who wander into it.A good Viper can
cause headaches for the enemy team. She can chuck poisonous
smoke bombs which aren’t only great for blocking chokepoints,
but also allow her to enter them without taking any damage -
perfect for keeping her enemies guessing.
VIPER - The Predator

11. CCYPHER - One Man
Surveillance
● The Moroccan information broker, Cypher is a one-man surveillance
network who keeps tabs on the enemy’s every move. No secret is safe.
No maneuver goes unseen. Cypher is always watching.If intel is your
thing, Cypher might be your Agent.
● This Moroccan surveillance Agent has abilities that trap and reveal the
locations of enemies that get stuck in them, as well as an actual spy cam
he can place on the map to watch the action from afar. His ultimate
extracts information from a fresh enemy corpse to temporarily reveal the
location of remaining players on the opposing team.In many ways, he
can totally lock down a bomb site on his lonesome! His traps and
devices are difficult to avoid, so much so, over time we can see players
discovering some devious placements for them to make these sites
very, very difficult to attack.

12. REYNA - The Duelist
● Forged in the heart of Mexico, Reyna dominates single combat,
popping off with each kill she scores. Her capability is only
limited by her raw skill, making her highly dependent on
performance.[1] Reyna has the passive ability of Soul Harvest,
enemies killed by Reyna leave behind Soul Orbs that last 3
seconds. Soul Harvest abilities consist of Devour and Dismiss
which have a shared usage pool.She is often seen with the
edges of her hair dyed purple.
● She is relatively exposed and only has one arm covered while
the other exposed. Her sharp eyes make her menacing to look
at. It's Reyna’s Leer (floating eye orb) which can really cause
some damage to enemy teams as it forces them to shoot it, or
suffer the consequences.

13. KILLJOY - The Genius Of
Germany
● Killjoy secures the battlefield with ease using her arsenal of
inventions. If the damage from her gear doesn't stop her enemies,
her robots debuff will help make short work of them.Killjoy’s not
quite as strong as we thought she’d be, but nonetheless, she’s a
decent pick.
● Her contraptions are great at gathering info or locking down
bombsites, and her grenades can halt pushes or force enemies into
some really tough spots.If you go against a team who anticipates
where your contraptions are going to be placed, though, you’re in for
a tough time. You need to mix things up constantly as otherwise
you’re rendered obsolete.

14. SKYE
● Hailing from Australia, Skye and her band of beasts
trail-blaze the way through hostile territory. With her
creations hampering the enemy, and her power to
heal others, the team is strongest and safest by
Skye's side. Skye's powers draw from the natural
world, and the potency of her abilities may just give
Sage a run for her money.
● It's about time Valorant got a new healer, and so far,
her skill set appears to strike a good balance between
support and aggression. Here's everything we know
about Valorant Skye, including her abilities, when
she's coming, and more.Skye's Trailblazer ability
sees her summon a Tasmanian tiger, which she can
then control. While in tiger-form her vision is greatly
reduced, making it impossible to see enemies that
are standing far away. When the tiger strikes an
enemy it inflicts an AoE concuss effect.
