Aside from the signature Fault Line, Breach players should study Flashpoint. This ability to set charges on walls gives a lot of tactical options to Breach users. These charges become useful in defending points, as Flashpoint blinds enem

A great way to set yourself for success while saving credits is doing Eco Rounds. It's a concept where you don’t buy anything major in the active round in order to reach the armor and assault rifle threshold next round. Eco Rounds usually come into play when your team is struggling and is low on budget. It is essentially a deal where you sabotage the active round to get yourself in a better position for the upcoming rounds. This is a very efficient tactic that is also quite popular in CS:

Guardian is perfect for anyone who likes a gun with very decent damage output, as well as it being a single-fire gun. The gun isn't too expensive, yet offers just enough damage to make it a good pick in most situations. Although its effectiveness at scoring kills can't hold a candle to some of the top guns on the list, the Guardian is still a very powerful gun, especially in the earlier rou

This one is a feel bad for anyone who doesn't exactly have the best aim (myself including). It feels like you have your crosshair right on the opponent's head and somehow you miss. It doesn't feel like it should be possible. Hitting that shot should have been e

Even though the spray becomes a lot more controllable while crouch walking or just walking, it’s still very inaccurate compared to shooting while standing still. It’s better to stop, aim, and shoot instead of recklessly spraying while moving. This will significantly improve the chances of landing all the bullets on the desired spot and eventually eliminating the enemy. Getting the headstart on enemies will often net you clutch kills and could be the deciding factor of the ro

At pretty much all times in Valorant , the crosshair of a gun should be placed in such a way that if an enemy walks into your line of sight, his head should be directly placed on the crosshair. This will net players easy headshots and will significantly reduce the time to eliminate the opposing player. Players can find the perfect crosshair placement for them by trying out different guns in the practice mode. It's also important to note that crosshair placement should be flexible as there are different maps in Valorant , all with different landscapes and terra

Just like League of Legends , Valorant Collectibles is entirely free to play. This means that as long as the player’s system meets the minimum system requirements, they can install it and play it without ever having to worry about the purchase cost or a subscription. And if they don’t like it, they can just uninstall it without feeling bad about paying for

Even though defusing the Spike (bomb) is the principal objective for the team playing defense, it’s not always smart to do so. There will be cases when the Spike plant will be on the complete opposite side of where you are on the map, and instead of walking across the whole map in hopes of that miracle defuse, it’s better to accept defeat to move to next round. By running head-on to defuse the Spike, you are giving enemies an easy target to sh

This pits it against a few other free-to-play shooters, like Call of Duty: Warzone and Fortnite . And being free makes it easier to recommend over games like Overwatch and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, which still charge gamers to play and have microtransactions on top of t

For years, the PC's esports landscape has been largely dominated by three companies: Valve, Activision Blizzard, and Riot Games. These competing juggernauts seem to be locked in a constant cycle, borrowing core elements from each other's games to bolster their own esports titles - or to create new ones. Riot Games' Valorant _ is the newest example: a free-to-play, team-based tactical shooter in the vein of _Counter-Stri

Those seagulls from Finding Nemo were pretty much what chat would have sounded like if you could hear them. The only thing this meme needs now is Dory and Marlin as Valorant beta keys, and it will be compl

Each player in Valorant is given a fixed amount of budget at the start of any match. This budget then updates each round depending on various factors such as kills and assists secured in the prior round. Although the idea of buying the most expensive weapons and utilities every round is tempting, it’s not possible. It’s important to identify when to save and when to go all out. New players often fall into this trap and buy any weapon without putting any thou

Valorant is a team-based first-person shooter and the latest game trying to be an eSports mainstay for players. Developed by Riot Games, the guys responsible for the monstrously popular League of Legends , it has similar ambitions. It already has over 3 million players, and has racked up over 500 million hours viewed on Twitch. So, it’s had an exemplary lau
