    No, it's also the holistic Art Direction of the game which amazes me. The badass sound design, astonishing graphical animations, and diverse character design are well done. (I MEAN AGENTS FROM DIFFERENT COUNTRIES? HOW COOL IS THIS? Please watch Episode 1 Ignition Trailer)
    I feel immersed in the Valorant world, and not many games can do that.
    But with all the enthusiasm, I still felt the entry pretty hard. But after some training in the practice mode, I got pretty fast into the game.

    Great game have some problems but as a new game and still in beta version it's okay for the main complain that valorant is a cs.go clone well it's not the two games have a similar style yes but cs.go Don't own the that style of games i'm saying this as a cs.go player and riot games have done a great job.

    Half of these people who are complaining havent even played this game, lag is beacuse you have worse internet or computer & gunplay in my opinion is good in this game, just learn to aim or something if you have problems. You can just change your crosshair & dpi.

    Hate comes from some csgo players & a lot from fortnite players too. I mean fortnite players hate everything.

    People are so dumb that they dont understand that the character has to be slower than cs:go simply because the maps are smaller. + the game has no cheaters, different from cs:go, 128 ticks servers, nice shot reg.

SkilledThis games gameplay is 100% Csgo. If you don’t like the csgo game play you WILL NOT enjoy this game. I have 14 years of counter strike experience and I love this game and it’s potential. Right now it needs ranked gameplay. New users need to learn how to attack bomb sites as a team using there abilities, how to defend properly, rotation timing to different positions around the map. Skilled counter strike players will have this ability going into this game. Any other player coming from any game is at a disadvantage. I personally think every character should be able to buy a smoke and a flash bang orb. If the only characters to possess those abilities are dead and you need to take/retake a bomb site, without that utility winning the round is virtually impossible for higher tier play. I like the hitboxes and how accurate and pinpoint your shots are in comparison to Csgo, 100 times better server quality than Csgo. These ability’s put a new twist to the game. Players need to learn to communicate and work together. This is a shooter game of chess. If people do not communicate with a mic, or is not willing to work with there team to victory, don’t play this game. RANKED is needed to separate the skill gap, trolls, and rookies. FLASH ORBS and SMOKE ORBS should be able to be purchased. Otherwise defenders can’t peek certain information peeks without risking there life, and attackers cannot successfully take a bomb site if they are undermanned and the remaining characters do not possess a smoke or flash ability. Those are my notes. Amazing game. Pretty much a WAY better version of counterstrike. Overwatch users will hate the slow gameplay. Expand

Valorant is at the beginning still has a lot of content, technologies and improvements to add before becoming the best fps and that's what will happen. Let's be honest, since Riot games announced the development of Valorant cs: go was already dead, all CS fans ready to criticize it in every aspect because they know that if Valorant is cared perfectly it can kill their game, Cs: go is survived thanks to addicted fans and because there were no rival competitive games not because of the game it self, but now there is Valorant. If valorant had been a game of any game company, no one would care at all about that game, that's why valorant is famous because it is a game of Riot games and they know how to perfect and evolve a big game and above all they know esports since they have a monopoly on it. Cs: go is a boring old game with ridiculous graphics and literally 2 colors in all maps: gray and brown for 10 years. Valorant was born for a reason to permanently kill cs: go and take the last part of esports remained for Riot the FPS. Expand

While the art style is looked as “childish” this is not true it was chosen to keep it low spec and accessible by everyone like LoL.

    While it had its issues at launch the game has come far. This is why the user score is so low, people saw it as just a clone of csgo and OW but if the people who left bad reviews played the game now they will look at it like a new game that is perhaps better than csgo.

    It is an enjoyable and innovating game , however, the map design is really bad, which suddenly kills the "fast-paced" part of the game. The maps also feel way too "Defender-sided". There are also some really common glitches and bugs that Riot Games fails to address.

    Pros : Fun, easy to learn (?), creative
    Cons : Bad maps, bugs, some (small) balancing issues

    Best multiplayer FPS out right now. May not have the best gunplay but for me the gameplay (tactical shooter with abilities) just make it so great. The game is like a chess battle and that is why its feels so competitive to play in. I have a lot of reasons why I like the game.

    1.) The agent and gun meta is just well-balanced right now. The agents and guns are not easy to use. It takes time to learn them. Unlike in Apex Legends (another shooter with abilities), you can use Bloodhound, Octane, Seer, Caustic, Horizon, and etc and within 3-5 games you can use their kit on the same level as an average player. You can't do that in Valorant. It takes time.

    2.) The gunplay also. Again it is not the best but it's hard to learn how to one tap headshot someone that I depend on spraying a lot of times and it is not going well.

    3.) The system before you can get to ranked is also great. You need 10 wins so by the time you get those 10 wins you actually have an idea how to play the game. The rank points depend on how you fit the MMR, your performance, and if you win or lose. Even if you win but performed poorly you could only get +12 while your teammate that performed well could get +30 and even if you lose but performed well you could only get -6 but your teammates who performed poorly could get -23. It works well.

    The skill gap of the game is high. This game is gonna be the king of FPS games for years. I am really having fun learning the game right now.

    TL;DR: Meta is well balanced, competitive integrity is high, and has a nice learning curve.

    Valorant is a 2020 PC first person tactical shooter video game. It was created by Riot Games. A lot of people compare this game to CS:GO and Overwatch. CS:GO is a game created by valve but is more realistic than valorant. It is modern and based more on the military. CS:GO produces terrorists and counter terrorists, while Valorant just calls them attackers and defenders. The reason theseValorant is a 2020 PC first person tactical shooter video game. It was created by Riot Games. A lot of people compare this game to CS:GO and Overwatch. CS:GO is a game created by valve but is more realistic than valorant. It is modern and based more on the military. CS:GO produces terrorists and counter terrorists, while Valorant just calls them attackers and defenders. The reason these two games are often compared is because the games have different shooting patterns and play a more realistic style. If you continue to spray a gun, the less accurate you are online Call of Duty or other shooting games. Overwatch is a game created by Blizzard and is compared to Valorant because of the abilities users are given. In Valorant, for example, a character named omen is able to teleport across the map. It is a special ability that players need to buy or gain kills to be able to do it.
    Valorant runs pretty smooth on many computers. It does not require the hardware that other games need. This makes it easy for older computers to play it and allows the game to grow. Another upside to Valorant is the developers. They interact with players on twitter and inform them on any changes, what they can look forward too, and answer questions if people have them. Valorant is not going to be the easiest game to get into at first as it is a big change for many gamers. Luckily, Riot has 4 game modes out already! For quick and fun games, players can hop into Spike Rush. Spike Rush is a best of 7 game mode that takes around 15 minutes. Another mode for players is deathmatch. This is the common game mode for many games. Players load in and try to get as many kills as possible. The third game mode is Unrated. To win this game mode, a team needs to win 13 rounds. These games can last anywhere from 30 minutes to 60 minutes depending on how many rounds go by. The most popular game mode is Competitive. it is exactly like Unrated, however in this game mode, you have the ability to rank up. Ranks go from iron to Valorant. The top players are in Valorant while the new players end up in Iron, usually. Winning games and playing well is how you climb the ranks.
    Overall, this game is very fun to play and wanting to rank up makes it competitive. I am excited to see how this game will go as it is still very early in its life.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Valorant is a shooting game that is different from other shooting games in which the special skills of the character are applied, giving the game a whole new kind of fun, so today valorant is a popular game and people play. Many all over the world
    Content within Valorant tells the world of the future. When the world encounters a phenomenon recorded as the First Light, which affects all over the world. The result is that human technology has evolved at a significant time. The governments and governments of the countries of the world have changed. At the same time, some humans show unusual abilities. These humans with special abilities were called Radiant. To combat the First Light incident, a secret organization called the Valorant Protocol, has brought together talented Agents from around the world.
    Valorant is a strategic shooter. Which if it is to be compared directly and this game is like a hybrid game Counter Strike: GO and Overwatch, the gameplay will be a 5 vs 5 battle between 2 players. In that play, the players will be divided into two sides. Raiders and Defense With the aim of attacking or defending the detonation point. The unique feature of Valorant is the Agent or characters in the game. Which has a different ability to be clear.
    For the rules in the game at the start, players will be able to choose from a total character that are currently available. Assemble a team of 5 people to switch sides, raid and prevent the bombing. In which the person who has won the full 13 rounds will be the party to be victorious. Each round, players will spend their money collected during play to buy firearms, armor and accessories. Firearms are divided into several types, including pistols, light machine guns, shotguns, rifles. The accessories are another feature that Valorant is different from other games. The characters in this game will have different accessories and abilities. The Agents will be divided into 4 groups: Initiator focuses on making the game open a way for teams to attack with abilities such as Stun or Flash, Controller jump. Known for controlling the map by slowing down enemies and building walls, Sentinel, an expert in defense and exploration, as well as setting traps and duelists with dueling abilities focuses on direct combat.
    Even now, Valorant might not be perfect. For example, the small text size makes it difficult to read in details The lack of buttons for automatic shopping, There are currently only 5 map in the game, but the main system of the game itself is so outstanding that it is easy to cover the disadvantages.

    Valorant is a mind blowing 5v5 tactical shooting, by Riot Games which is fun for both beginners and professionals.

    Valorant is a mind blowing 5v5 tactical shooting, by Riot Games which is fun for both beginners and professionals.
    The game focuses on the attackers to plant the spike (bomb) to one of several designated bombsites on the map where the defenders would be holding the site not allowing the attackers plant it. There are 24 rounds and each side has 12 rounds of attacking and defending respectively. The first team to win 13 rounds comes out as the winners, and in case the score is evened the match would go into overtime and there would be 2 extra rounds. Even if the points get evened out during OT there will be an option to either draw the game or continue the OT.
    The feature that makes this game stand out from rest of the 5v5 shooter games are the abilities of the characters (agents) in the game. There are 4 types of agents in the game – Duelists are the ones who push forward into conflicts with the enemy team. Think of them as attackers. Initiators focus on gathering intel and help the team push. Sentinels are defenders, usually playing the back line of a team. Controllers are good at blocking off sight lines and generally offer support to the team
    Each character gets an ability they can use for free each round. The two other non-ultimate abilities must be purchased at the gun shop during the buy phase like you would a grenade in Counterstrike. This means that they have finite uses meaning that players should use them conservatively. Abilities cannot be spammed on cooldown like you can in Overwatch. Lastly to cast an ultimate, you need a certain amount of skillpoints. Skill points can be grabbed around the map (gives one to all team members), earned through kills (1 kill = 1 point), or passively with each round.
    The Valorant tutorial does a good job of helping you understand the basics of the game. It also helps you to alter your mouse sensitivity, and get a feel for the basic controls. First you can run fastest with a knife in your hand. So, when you’re moving or rotating in a safe area try to always pull your knife out. Another plus point is that various weapons also have different movement speeds. SMGs and Sidearms, except for the Shorty and Sheriff, are the next fastest after the knife. The Shorty and Sheriff come next, along with the Rifles and Shotguns. Finally, the Heavies and Snipers are the slowest. You are shots are less accurate while running and gunning in long range. But the time it takes for you to reach 100% accuracy once you stop moving is quick. Although running and gunning with SMGs might be handy as it is better in close range and accuracy is better than rifles while running. While running you make a lot of noise. Enemies can hear you coming from a long way off. When you’re trying to hide information about your movement, you need to walk. Valorant has bullet penetration, so your shots can kill enemies through some materials. And some weapons are better and penetrating walls than others. Low-penetration weapons can only shoot through wooden objects. Medium-penetration weapons can shoot through wood and stone objects. And only high-penetration weapons can shoot through metal objects. Some objects in the game are just impenetrable.
    Valorant’s interface has a lot options that can be controlled according to the user’s wish. For example, the you can set different key binds for each control that best suits your muscle memory, valorant has 3 different graphic settings, for user who wants the max fps they can go with low settings and those who cares only about the graphics can go with high graphics. The sensitivity of the mouse can be adjusted too. The controls are pretty easy to learn, it took me 3 matches to get familiar with the controls and plus the game requires you to win 10 unranked matches to start the ranked matches, which helps the player a lot.
    The toughness of the game depends on the match making rating of the player. If the player has a high mmr then he would get queued with players of similar mmr or higher. The thing about the valorant I found annoying is the match making system which at times queues you with players of higher mmr in the opponents and low mmr players as your team mates. But Riot games is trying their best to fix it.

The game developer did their best to maintain balance of male and female agents so that there will no gender difference in the game and in my opinion, make the game more interesting through an additional layer of unpredictability. This game is all about team work and patience’s. The game consists of 5 maps which are unique to each other. The developer tried their best to make every map balanced for both attackers and defenders even though map like split gives a small advantage to the defender side. The game offers different modes so that the players are kept entertained.

    The objective of this game is quite simple there are two teams (attackers and defenders) each consist of 5 members. The role of attackers is to plant the spike in the planting spot and also protect the spike from defusing by the defenders and the role of defenders is quite opposite to attackers. Whichever team wins the first 13 rounds wins the game.

    Valorant has 5 free characters and 5 that can be unlocked simply by playing through the game. Real-life currency can only impact appearances of weapons and animations. Riot tries very hard to ensure there is no paying for advantages. Each character has their own unique voice lines which are so nice and never get old and the characters represent a country which I really enjoy! The servers are very good for latency and the weapons are in a small amount so you don't need to remember that many. They also balanced each weapon very properly so that there would be no overpowered weapons. Its In-game sound effects makes us more interesting to play the game.

    This is one of those FTP games which doesn’t required high end specs to play the game which makes the game very approachable among all kinds of gamers. its graphic is quite clean with a cartoonish form look. Still the game has room for more improvement like game glitches where you are unable to see marking on the mini map, where you are not able to see the damage you have taken/given to opposite player. Such glitches force us to close the game and restart it. Other than that this game is very entertaining and I would suggest all of you to play this game

    Valorant is a recent addition to the tactical FPS multiplayer genre developed by Riot Games, where players can compete in a 5v5 match in a battle to win.. If, like me, you've indulged in a little Counter-Strike at some point over the past few years, Valorant's high-stakes round-based shootouts is no stranger to you.

If, like me, you've indulged in a little Counter-Strike at some point over the past few years, Valorant's high-stakes round-based shootouts is no stranger to you. Valorant also provides Overwatch features such as ultimates and special abilities, which I was worried about when I first started, but, over time it was obvious that even a single bullet could decide the fate of the match. While agents like Sage and Skye may seem like a cheat as they can revive and heal, it still is well balanced because of the abilities of other characters.Valorant balances ultimates by making them cost points to use instead of putting them on a cooldown. You can gain these by dying, picking up and gathering nodes, and most importantly: killing opponents. To top it off, all of your abilities cost you points which are also needed to buy armor and shields, therefore you need to be wise in your expenditure during the games.. You will also need to learn how to micromanage the in-game economy.

    Top Picks Among Players
    My favourite agent in Valorant is "Reyna" because of her ability to heal and deal catastrophic amounts of damage to other team in a short span of time using her ultimate and abilities. However, it all comes with a price. If you don't get enough kills, you will have a lot of trouble managing your economy where you will be forced to play rounds with half buys or no buys.

    Play Styles and Environmental Awareness
    In valorant, you need to be aware of your surroundings at all times unless you want to be knifed from behind. Valorant has many ways to gather intel on opponents and more often than not, wins and losses are all about who can gather more information on the enemy. There are even agents who specialize in just gathering information i.e Cypher. Sound and visual cues are very important aspects of Valorant as they tell you if the enemy is rotating to different sites or will push for the same one.

    Pressure and Aim
    Valorant can be very stressful and frustrating at times, especially when you get headshotted every time you peek at an angle or if you can't aim at the target fast enough to deal damage. The different recoils and feel that you get with each gun takes a little time to get used to. And the debate between Phantom and Vandal, guns of similar damage, is never-ending. Even though both guns have special uses depending on the scenario. It only takes 1-2 shots in the head to kill the enemy, but you are dead wrong if you thought that the dead can't come back to life with Sage.

    Problems with Valorant

    Odin and Ares
    It might not be a big deal for some players who play casually, but sometimes it can be extremely frustrating if the enemy team starts to spam guns such as Odin which has 100 bullets and can deal damage even through a wall. Paired up with Sova, an agent who can reveal the enemy using his arrows, you can get at least 1-2 kills from Wallbang alone if you take the opposing team by surprise. Ares with 50 bullets and a cost of only 1600 points is a very good option for spamming because you can keep buying and spamming it even if you don't have a good economy.

    Pacing
    Valorant can feel quite slow paced if you came from a game such as CSGO.It takes a bit of time to adapt to it and it can affect you negatively if you were to switch back to CSGO from Valorant as CSGO will feel too fast in comparison.

    Skins and Cosmetics
    Skins. There is a lot of debate about whether skins affect the outcome of matches. Many players argue that a Prime Vandal can increase your kills by good margin and I personally feel it provides assistance when aiming at the heads of enemies, making it easier to play with skins than without. This makes me wonder if Valorant is a "pay to win", but some may argue otherwise.

    Final Words on game
    Valorant is a fantastic game. Although it can take a while to get into but, over time you’ll start to get the hang of it. However, knowledge about certain abilities and aspects are crucial for playing this game. This can easily be accomplished by finding information through the internet. Though at times, it seems as if it’s trying to combine Overwatch and CSGO into one to become “Valorant”.
    Valorant gave me an excellent experience as the concept of using abilities in a FPS game is really fun. The game is not entirely about gunplay but also having a strong strategic planning and efficient execution.
    Overall, Valorant provides fresh gaming experience while also honing real life skills such as strategic thinking and teamwork. I would recommend playing this game if you are someone who likes to try something new along with learning it.

    I have been playing as a Valorant since early 2021. It excites me from the very beginning. The game has an interesting design. The details, graphics, characters, skills, and guns are all new to me. Everything is great and cool. Despite the fact that many aspects appear to be new, the game play is still similar when compared to other games I've experienced, such as CSGO. That has made itI have been playing as a Valorant since early 2021. It excites me from the very beginning. The game has an interesting design. The details, graphics, characters, skills, and guns are all new to me. Everything is great and cool. Despite the fact that many aspects appear to be new, the game play is still similar when compared to other games I've experienced, such as CSGO. That has made it simple for me to play, and I will have a lot of practice to be good at playing this game.

    The obvious attraction of the Valorant game, though, is the large number of "agents" to choose from. Each of these individuals has unique abilities and skills. The developers produced characters from a variety of countries. My favorite character to play is Raze, a Brazilian with exceptional attacking abilities. She has a lot of agility and so cool.

    The game contains an anti-cheat technology that allows the player to have a more enjoyable experience than with other games. And I'm going to discuss the competitive mode, which increases the difficulty and enjoyment of the game. Each player has a name of rank, which serves as a sign of the player's position. "Iron" is the lowest rank given to the new player, and "Radiant" is the highest. The rating system is working effectively. The team match, on the other hand, is not as well-balanced as it should be.

    On the part of the players To be honest, the community aspect of this game does not appeal to me. In practically every round and mode you play, you'll see other players misbehaving with your teammates. Those players will be identified as "Toxic players," which either indicates the developer hasn't addressed this issue thoroughly enough, or maybe there are too many of these players, hahaha. If you want to play this game, you need to be prepared to cope with pressure and toxic players who may frustrate you at any time during the game.

    Overall, I'd give this game a 8 out of 10 rating. It's a fantastic game to enjoy with your friends. It will be even more difficult and challenging if you play in competitive mode. If you're bored and looking for something to do with your free time, I recommend this game to you. :)

    Valorant has a high-quality and clean release without any problems. The game will definitely please fans of the competitive FPS genre. The eSports potential of the shooter has only become established over time, and the first tournaments are already planned. However, a high entry threshold requires serious skill training. But this only makes the game more interesting.
