<br>Several leaks have cropped up around Valorant , including screenshots and the title itself before the official reveal, as well as some official reveals that include alpha gameplay. Another official announcement has now revealed one of the most important aspects of the SLG game Updates: the characters that players will take control of. Each one of these characters has their own name, distinct look, and powers available to them, making each one play differently and allowing them to come together into a cohesive team. It is not a far cry from Riot's original League of Legends or from more recent shooters like Overwatch and the earlier Battlebo<br><br> <br>Both Viper and Pheonix are great offensive agents as they can easily put a lot of pressure on point by using their abilities which makes it easier for the team to plant the bomb. However, Viper's ultimate ability can single-handedly move an entire team on to the point, whereas Pheonix's ability is more selfish and gives him a second life. Outside of their ultimate abilities, Viper and Pheonix share similar abilities so their ultimates are the deciding factor when choosing an offensive h<br><br> <br>Sova's Shock Bolt is an electrical arrow that deals AoE damage after it hits. The closer enemies are to the center of the blast, the more damage it will inflict. Arrows can also be bounced off of surfaces up to two times. Also, the further the bow string is pulled back, the further the arrow will tra<br> <br>Incendiary Grenade is a great example of Brimstone's excellent Area Denial skill-set. When tossed in the right spot, it can prevent your enemies from launching a successful offense. Tossing the grenade at an enemy's location can buy enough time for your team to establish better cover, positional advantage, or simply allow for some easy kills. Using the Incendiary Grenade effectively means that the enemy will be unable to launch a successful offense, as you are always harassing them with this powerful gad<br><br> <br>In a game like Overwatch or League of Legends, players have an arsenal of characters to choose from meaning a team could be composed of all tanks, all attackers, too little defense, not enough offense, etc. While the pool of Agents is small in Valorant, it is important to note that as a rule of thumb, a team should be composed of agents that cover all of the team's bases. Obviously, Valorant plays much differently than any other tactical shooter, but good team composition can help players win more rounds. Here are the categories that team composition should co<br><br> <br>Agents Jett and Omen have mobility skills with Jett being able to jump and glide around the map, and omen being able to teleport from one place to another. Both share a smoke ability, but Jett ultimately has more mobility options that make her the most agile agent in Valora<br><br> <br>Sage - She's the healer of the game, preventing and healing damage wherever she goes with various orbs. She can create a slowing area of effect, or create a solid wall to block bullets, line of sight and movement. Her signature ability is Healing Orb, which heals someone back to full health over a short duration, and her ultimate is Resurrection, which requires a corpse to w<br><br> <br>Finally, Brimstone's Ultimate, Orbital Strike, fits a similar niche to his Incendiary Grenade, except with ten-times the effectiveness. Orbital Strike shines the brightest, when placed onto the location of the Spike, dispatching of any enemy looking to disarm the Spike or to simply stop them from even being near its location. This ability can be used to dispatch of a well set up team, through its insanely high damage potential. If done in the right location it can also separate even a well-coordinated team, allowing for players to pick apart the enemy's defenses and strategy. If used correctly Orbital Strike can simply end around and even a match. Its ability to shut down a particular area is unmatched in the game, making it a threat for even the most coordinated teams in the g<br><br> <br>Finally, Viper's ultimate is the Viper's Pit. This creates a large cloud of poisonous gas that cannot be seen through at all and damages all who step inside it except for Viper. It remains active as long as Viper stays inside it and all enemies that enter it will be mar<br><br> <br>This gun does impressive headshot damage and has a quick rate of fire. It also has a higher ammo capacity than any of the other pistols with its 15-round magazine. Unfortunately, it loses some of its accuracy as you fire thanks to the silencer. Still, one headshot to an unarmored foe will kill t<br><br> <br>Omen's ultimate ability is From the Shadows. It is a simple ability that allows Omen to teleport anywhere on the map after it is pulled up. While the teleport is happening, all enemy mini-maps are distor<br> <br>Finally, Brimstone's ultimate, Orbital Strike is a devastating laser shot from the sky, which dishes out insane damage for a short period of time. The laser has a distinct center, which when stood in does the most amount of damage. Orbital Strike lasts for a lengthy period of time and dishes out insane Area of Effect damage in a particular area. Making it one of the most powerful ultimates in the g<br>
