Valorant: How to play as Phoenix

The Blast Pack will stick to a surface after being thrown. After enough time passes, or it is manually detonated, it will explode. Raze can use this ability to launch herself onto higher ground like Overwatch ‘s Junkr

The first of Omen’s abilities is his powerful Shadow Step. A move that allows Omen to teleport to an indicated location, allowing the character to escape to new cover, take high-ground, or simply escape the given danger. Using Shadow Step to take high ground is its primary function, as it allows the character access to some seemingly inaccessible locations. Be aware of Shadow Step’s long start-up period, and take this downside into account before you use the ability to either flank or escape a combat encoun

Phoenix’s Hot Hands is another fire-ball style attack in which the character launches an incendiary blast that deals high damage to a surrounding area. This attack, when tossed, will place a lingering flame area that does incredible damage-over-time. This attack allows Phoenix players to “smoke” up a team that is defending a given area or even prevents a rushing team from accessing a particular entrance or exit. Not to mention the abilities potential team-wiping effects if thrown on an unsuspecting group of enem

This is one of the most balanced guns in the game. It has good range and deals an impressive amount of damage. The Vandal is also quite accurate and has a large 30-round magazine and 1.25x zoom. It is easily one of the most popular guns in the game due to its all-around effectiveness and high one-shot potent

Phoenix’s ultimate is one of the most interesting in the game. As it provides the fire-casting character some of the best survivability in the game. Run it Back allows Phoenix to create a clone of himself which is set to a set timer. When this clone is cast Phoenix can travel from his “real” body and attack enemies, see their location, cast his abilities, or do anything he can in his set period. When the time is up he will travel back to where his “real” body is. If the Phoenix clone is defeated before the time is up than the clone will disappear and the Phoenix player will resume from his original location. This ability is one of the best abilities in the game and allows Phoenix players an unprecedented versatil

Breach’s third ability is Fault Line. This is Breach’s signature ability, which players must equip it first and charge it before firing. Fault Line creates an earthquake that disrupts players’ movement and screens that can be fired through walls and cover. Like Breach’s other abilities, the exact area it will hit can be seen on the mini-map in the corner of the screen. It can also be used to check corner like with Aftershock, but it is capable of friendly-f

A classic double-barrel shotgun that can cause one-shot kills at close range, but is useless at distance. With only two shots before having to reload, you’d better hit your target. Interestingly, the Shorty is classified as a sidearm rather than a shotgun in VALORA

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, ak 47 skin one headshot to an unarmored foe will kill t

Finally, Sova’s ultimate ability is his Hunter’s Fury. This allows him to fire up to three arrows that go through all map objects and walls in a straight line. All enemies hit will be revealed temporar

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

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

The Phantom has a faster fire rate than the Vandal and has less recoil. The drawback is that it has a shorter effective range with the damage dropping off at longer ranges. At the same price as the Vandal it is a great alternative for shorter ran

Initially, many fans and analysts gave the edge to Sentinels, who recently constructed a roster of former CS:GO pros Shahzeeb “ShahZaM” Khan, Hunter “SicK” Mims, former Overwatch MVP Jay “sinatraa” Won and former Apex Legends pro for Sentinels Jared “zombs” Gitlin. Popular streamer Coby “Dizzy” Meadows stood in for the team’s fifth spot. Even with Sentinels’ stacked roster, they were taken down by Team Brax in the second round of the winner’s bracket and were defeated for good by Team Shroud in the loser’s bracket. Despite their struggles this tournament, Sentinels flashed their potential multiple times, and the organization’s willingness to go out and sign big name players is a positive sign for the team’s fut
