Some players hate talking over the microphone or they just don't have one that they can use. This makes it difficult for teammates to help one another or coordinate strategies, which is why a ping or instant chat system would improve the gamep

A great addition to VALORANT would be the recording of more stats, especially in relation to the Agent's special abilities. Some stats that would be nice include how many heals a player has successfully completed and the number enemies they have slowed, shocked, or even caught in a tripw

In a game like Overwatch or League of Legends, players have an arsenal of characters to choose from meaning a team could be composed of all tanks, all attackers, too little defense, not enough offense, etc. While the pool of Agents is small in Valorant, it is important to note that as a rule of thumb, a team should be composed of agents that cover all of the team's bases. Obviously, Valorant plays much differently than any other tactical shooter, but good team composition can help players win more rounds. Here are the categories that team composition should co

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

Phoenix's ultimate is one of the most interesting in the game. As it provides the fire-casting character some of the best survivability in the game. Run it Back allows Phoenix to create a clone of himself which is set to a set timer. When this clone is cast Phoenix can travel from his "real" body and attack enemies, see their location, cast his abilities, or do anything he can in his set period. When the time is up he will travel back to where his "real" body is. If the Phoenix clone is defeated before the time is up than the clone will disappear and the Phoenix player will resume from his original location. This ability is one of the best abilities in the game and allows Phoenix players an unprecedented versatil

This the most expensive gun in the game because it deals one-shot kills to enemies, aside from leg hits. The Operator can use both a 2.5x or 5x zoom level and has a five-round magazine. It isn't the best for short-range skirmishes, but at long range, nothing can beat

The biggest thing that kills FPS games is the addition of overpowered weapons and, in the case of VALORANT , Agents. A single gun that can wipe out a player in one shot or an Agent with abilities that best every other in the map would be an instant death sentence for this up and coming ti

Phoenix's Hot Hands is another fire-ball style attack in which the character launches an incendiary blast that deals high damage to a surrounding area. This attack, when tossed, will place a lingering flame area that does incredible damage-over-time. This attack allows Phoenix players to "smoke" up a team that is defending a given area or even prevents a rushing team from accessing a particular entrance or exit. Not to mention the abilities potential team-wiping effects if thrown on an unsuspecting group of enem

The system closely resembles what Overwatch has, where the game adds up the player's scores to make a total instead of pairing up players with similar scores and experience. This is another small change that would go a long way in attracting an audience to this platf

Each action awards Creds and winning or losing a round affects how much players must spend each round. Much like 100 Thieves CS:GO , there is a strategy to buying that requires clear communication and observing how much the team has to spend. For example, it is possible and common for early rounds to feature one player with enough to buy something powerful, but for no one else. If that player does so and loses, then the following round flips the situation around so that they are the only ones broke and who cannot help the team in a meaningful

This is to say that at the lowest ranks of play at Iron and Bronze, matches will be chaotic, disorganized, players will have virtually no coordination, and buying rounds will yield completely different builds. This is normal, and it is where everyone starts to learn how to p

The first of Brimstone's abilities is his Stim Beacon gadget. When thrown this item evokes an area of effect, which provides him and his teammates the rapid-fire ability. When players stand within the Stim Beacon's aura, that player's gunshots will increase in speed. Providing a solid second or two faster gunshots, allowing players to unload a clip quicker than without the Stim Beacon. It not only increases bullet speed but also allows players to reload their guns faster than before. Making Stim Beacon a powerful tool within a fire-fight that can establish a clear and devastating advant
