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

Two teams of five players face off on one of several maps, with the first team to win thirteen rounds taking the overall match victory. Similar to other FPS games, each team alternates between taking the role of Attacker or Defender. To win a round, all the Attackers need to do is plant the Spike (like a bomb in other titles) on one of several predetermined locations, or simply eliminate the opposing team. Likewise, the Defenders are only tasked with stopping the Spike plant by defusing it within the round time limit or by eliminating the opposit

Brimstone's Sky Smoke is, arguably, his best ability. Sky Smoke not only provides exceptional cover by limiting an enemy's line of sight, but it can also be used to hide the Spike's location. Due to Brimstone's ability to possess three Sky Smokes during a period of time, a player can use them more liberally than other smoke screen style characters. Brimstone players can use the Sky Smoke to cover an area's main choke-points or entrances, preventing enemies from being able to pick off your teammates. Or Trickshot Compilation as mentioned, it can be used to hide the spike's location, preventing the enemy team from being able to disarm the weapon. Is used correctly, Brimstone's Sky Smoke can be the biggest factor in his team winning a ma

The matches are long and the SBMM system is subpar, which is why a surrender system should be implemented. This would go hand-in-hand with the honor system as it gives players an out without making them wait a set amount of time before being allowed into a new g

Now that Brimstone's abilities have been detailed, it is important to understand the best way to utilize them. Brimstone excels at an area denial playstyle, that can provide excellent support for his team while preventing any attacks from being launched by the enemy t

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

Emerging as an international success, seemingly out of nowhere, Valorant _ combines the competitive genres of hero-shooters and _Counter-Strike style realistic arena shooters. Valorant's success has appeared to emerge from out of nowhere, possessing gargantuan numbers on Twitch and increasing its player base every day. The only way that players can even get a copy of Valorant, is through a Twitch Keys, which can only be accessed by watching a streamer play the game live. This combined with its hyper-intense gameplay, application of both hero and realistic shooter qualities, and being one of the most addicting game-types to emerge in the modern market, it is no surprise that Valorant is shaping to be a mammoth succ

At the start of each round, players will have a moment to spend their Creds (the in-game currency) to purchase weapons, armor, and abilities. This is called the Buy Phase, and the number of Creds available is directly related to securing certain actions in the previous round. Dying right away will award only a small number of Creds, whereas eliminating opponents, winning the round, and planting the Spike will award m

Viper is fantastic for a brutal 9th rating, but hear me out. Her abilities, while useful, can be functionally replicated by those of other agents. Her Toxic Screen and Snake Bite abilities are very similar to Phoenix's; Her smokes can be replaced by Jett's, Omen's, or Brimstone's. Her Viper Pit is useful for spike plants, but can work against your team easily too. It is also impossible for enemies to die to the gas, leaving them at 1HP; If they see you first, you still may go d

Here is where VALORANT deviates strongly in theme from CS:GO and ventures into Overwatch territory. Each character, known as an Agent, has their own backstory with abilities that border on the supernatural to match their personality. Phoenix, unsurprisingly, is all about fire and the potential ability to respawn when elimina

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 Agents have special abilities and the weapons should match this instead of being simple and basic. The weapons have so much potential and for a game that's been six years in the making, players expected a lot more than just another collection of pistols, rifles, and shotg

Breach's abilities pack a massive punch. Even with slow actuation times, they have impressive range and can completely disorient opponents. He's one of those characters that I almost put up in the top 3, but his abilities are non-vital. Phoenix's flash ability seems to be a bit more versatile and athletic than Breach's, and while his ultimate is powerful and flashy, Brimstone's seems to have the edge with its killing po
