NovemberValorant: How to play as Phoenix
Firstly, Jett has a passive ability that allows her to glide when jumping from a high point, and it negates fall damage. She also has an updraft ability that allows her to jump very high in the air to get the "jump" on her enemies. Jett can also use a quick dash that recharges after getting two kills. And if that were not enough, her ultimate is endless. She summons five kunai blades that she can throw at enemies. There is no timer on her ultimate so she can summon it at the beginning of a match and use it all the way through. AND her ultimate resets if she gets a kill with her blades. Meaning as long as one of her blades kills someone she will get all five b
Blaze is a literal fire wall that can be curved by the player while it is being cast. It heals Phoenix players that stand in it, while also damaging enemies. Due to it being a wall of fire, it can also obscure enemy visibil

Players can carry a primary and secondary weapon in addition to their knife, so narrowing down choices is crucial in developing a distinct play-style. VALORANT has six weapon categories in total: sidearms, shotguns, SMGs, rifles, snipers, and heavies. Here is a full breakdown of the available arse
When using Blaze Phoenix players have options in how they can use the ability. It is a powerful defensive tool while also being an incredibly dangerous offensive weapon in the right hands. Using Blaze to cover a given chokepoint is definitely one of its intended uses, as its visual impairment is arguably the best in the game. However, due to its versatile manipulation, Phoenix players can use the ability to cover the blind spot of a given area and flush out any camping players. And when used in conjunction with his Curveball, Blaze can be used to dish out some insane damage on a blinded enemy team. When using Blaze, Phoenix players simply need to be unpredictable, in order to gain the most mileage from the abil
The T1 Invitational was VALORANT 's most competitive tournament yet. For the first time, fans got watch fully formed teams battling against each other in a double-elimination format.

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
This gun has a fast rate of fire coupled with an enormous 100-round magazine. Like the Ares, it also needs a moment to charge up starting off at 12 rounds a second and increasing to 15.6 rounds per second. This is the perfect weapon for defending a site and stopping enemies in their tra
VALORANT has four rifles to choose from, the Bulldog, Guardian, Phantom, and Vandal. They are the most dominant type of gun used in the game due to their balance of accuracy, range, and rate of fire. All of the rifles have primary and alternative fire modes to help in different situati
The most expensive sidearm, this revolver deals massive damage but is offset by its low ammo capacity and slow rate of fire. The Sheriff's recoil may be a bit hard to control, but being able to kill with one headshot at almost any range/armor level makes up for
The Bucky is a pump-action shotgun with a low rate of fire and a wide spread pattern. This shotgun has a slow reload time and cannot penetrate walls, but its alternate fire can one-shot unarmored opponents in the mid-ra
Curveball is Phoenix's second ability in which the Pyromancer fires a flashbang-style fireball. When using Curveball the Phoenix player can curve the trajectory of the attack in either a right or a left angle allowing Phoenix to use the attack to blind players camping behind or around the corner of pesky choke points. This makes Curveball one of the best abilities for a team to use to counterattack a well set-up team and change the tide of battle in their fa
