Valorant is a free-to-play first-person hero shooter developed and published by Riot Games, for Microsoft Windows. Teased under the codename Project A in October 2019, the game began a closed beta period with limited access on April 7, 2020, followed by a release on June 2, 2020. The development of the game started in 2014. Valorant takes inspiration from the Counter-Strike series of tactical shooters, borrowing several mechanics such as the buy menu, spray patterns, and inaccuracy while moving.

Duelist

Duelists specialize in attacking and entering a bomb site for the team. Riot’s official definition for duelists is “self-sufficient fraggers.”[26] Duelists mainly create space for their team while entering onto a site, giving their teammates information, and making entering a site easier. Their abilities tend to consist of flashes which blind enemies, and movement-based abilities that allow for them to cover large distances faster than other agents. This type of ability kit allows for duelists to shine best when they are able to catch players off guard and get impact frags.

On attack, duelists are most often expected to play forward, leading the attack. They are expected to be in front of everyone to get opening picks on enemies since their abilities often give them a competitive advantage when gunfighting an enemy.

On defense, duelists will be holding choke points where enemies try to enter sites. Due to the mobility in their kits, they are able to get a pick and reposition, giving their team a numbers advantage.

Duelists include:

• Jett – A South Korean Radiant with the ability to manipulate wind and air.

• Phoenix – An English Radiant with the ability to manipulate fire.

• Raze – A Brazilian agent who utilizes explosives.

• Yoru – A Japanese Radiant with the ability to riftwalk into a different dimension.

• Neon – A Filipino Radiant with the ability to manipulate electricity.[27]

Sentinel

Sentinels are the defensive line, which specializes in locking down sites and protecting teammates from enemies. Their abilities mainly consist of static ‘objects’ that are obstacles to the enemies. These objects can give the team valuable information and/or deal damage.

On attack, sentinels can use their abilities to cut off certain parts of the map or set up ‘objects’ that can ensure the enemy cannot flank without being noticed.

On defense, sentinels can use their abilities to slow enemies from entering a site. This provides valuable time for the sentinels’ team members to come and provide defensive support.

Sentinels include:

• Chamber – A French agent who utilizes a variety of arsenal weapons.

• Cypher – A Moroccan agent who is a master hacker.

• Killjoy – A German agent that specializes in technology and summons her custom bots in battle.

• Sage – A Chinese Radiant with the ability to create crystal walls and restore life, including resurrecting the dead.[27]

Initiator

Initiators plan out the offensive pushes. Initiators specialize in breaking through defensive enemy positions. Initiators’ abilities can consist of flashes but also abilities that can reveal the location of enemies. This information allows for attackers to know where enemies are and make taking a site easier.

On defense, initiators can use their abilities to provide information on where the attackers are going, as well as helping their teammates retake a lost site.

Initiators include:

• Breach – A Swedish agent who utilizes his mechanical arms and weapons in combat.

• KAY/O – A Cybernetic from an alternate future who travels back to the past.

• Sova – A Russian agent who specializes in archery with the use of his prosthetic eye.

• Fade – A Turkish Radiant with the ability to control an entity called “Nightmare” and feed on people’s fears.[27]

Controller

Controllers specialize in “slicing up dangerous territory to set their team up for success.”[26] They use their abilities to create coverage or clear out areas of space with crowd control.

To help their team enter into enemy territory, their abilities consist of some kind of smoke, as well as molotovs, stuns, or flashes. With their smokes, controllers can control sightlines on the map, making it safer to move through the map without getting seen.

On offense, controllers can smoke off certain sightlines and use their crowd control on common defensive spots to force enemies into the open.

On defense, controllers can smoke and/or use crowd control on entryways to delay or discourage the enemy team from moving forward.

Controllers include:

• Astra – A Ghanaian Radiant with the ability to manipulate the cosmos.

• Brimstone – An American agent and the leader of the Valorant Protocol.

• Harbor – An Indian agent with the ability to manipulate water by using an ancient bracelet.

• Viper – An American agent who utilizes poison gas to subdue her enemies.[27]
