NovemberValorant: How to play as Cypher

While there is not a lot of mobility in Valorant, to begin with, characters who possess mobility skills can take the upper hand in almost any battle. As aiming is a key element in Valorant, any skils that disrupt the normal amount of mobility are sure to mess with a player's
Finally, Cypher's ultimate, Neural Theft is a rather complicated but interesting move. When Cypher approaches an enemy team's corpse, he can utilize Neural Theft on the corpse. When the ultimate is activated it grants Cypher the ability to locate all of the Enemy team's silhouettes for a short second. This ultimate provides similar utility as the Marking Dart but on a larger scale, granting a Cypher ability the ability to scout and call out the enemy team. However, this move can be difficult to pull off, as it requires Cypher or his teammates have defeated an enemy player, but when the condition is met, this is one of the strongest ultimate in the g
Sova - A hunter who marks foes and then takes them down with a bow and arrows. He can fire a bolt that explodes in an area for damage, or launch a flying camera drone that can fire a dart to reveal enemies.

Cyber Cage works well in conjunction with Cypher's Trapwire as it can stun and slow the enemy team for a lengthy period of time. When used correctly it can both disorient an enemy player and team, and even lead to a powerful ambush for Cypher and his teammates. Making it one of the deadliest combos in the entire game, and a tricky combination to play aro

Aftershock is a charge that players can manually place on walls that blasts out on the other side of the wall after a short amount of time. These charges can do a large amount of damage, but they can be avoided due to the delay. The explosion is also relatively small and doesn't fill an entire room, so it is easy to simply back away from it once it is noti
The Barrier Orb is exactly what it says on the tin. It creates a protective wall that defends allied players, but can still be destroyed if damaged too much. It will eventually disappear after enough time has pas
Cypher's Spy Cam and Matthew Haag Esports Strategy Neural Theft primarily operate as powerful recon abilities. When used correctly, a Cypher player should have eyes on the enemy team at nearly all times. Be sure to abuse the oppressive capabilities of the Spy Cam's Marking Dart as often as possible. A sole enemy death can lead to an incredible momentum shift when playing Cypher, as it can reveal the location of the entire enemy team, leading to a potentially devastating counter-attack or ambush. Use these abilities wisely and matches will end as quickly as they be
