A Short – Near the rugs remains a solid spot to place the Spycam, however, Riot Games seems to dislike the area for this use. We have already seen this changed in a recent patch, partly as an exploit, partly for being too difficult to quickly and easily note where the Spycam is located.

Yoru is a strong Agent with a huge arsenal full of epic weapons. He's a great Agent to play with either in solo or team games, as he can easily fend for himself when he needs to, and can lead to victory on his own


Although Riot Game's Valorant Missions is only at a beta stage and is likely to go through a lot of changes and polishing in the coming months as the developers take in player feedback, there's no denying this dynamic shooter is a fantastic title in the making.

Above A Screens #1 – We will mention this as one of the best places to place a camera, but we expect this to be patched out. Placing the Spycam here is not an exploit, but it provides such an abundance of information that it feels like a prime candidate for a nerf in the future. From here, Cypher can see spawn, screens, A Tower, A Main, and more. For now, this is a prime location to learn, but do not be surprised if in the future it is changed or removed due to simply being too effici


One of Raze's abilities, Blast Pack, is one of the most interesting and versatile abilities in the entire game. Blast Pack, in essence, functions like C4 in other games; you toss it, you blow it up, it hurts enemies. But in Valorant, Raze can't be damaged by her own Blast Packs. Instead, they launch her into the air, making for a ton of creative uses and a high skill ceil

That being said, it doesn't mean Vyse is a useless Agent.

While ranked at the bottom among all Controllers, Harbor is not a bad agent in Valorant. However, when compared to other Controllers, his abilities are not as effective.
