Tips for playing offensively and defensively in Valorant to successfully rank up

You will find shooting mechanics and agents, which will be complemented by unique skills inherent to each character and will influence the outcome of the battle and Valorant rank boost.

Attack

Each game half, one of the teams plays its match on the attack and must either destroy a squad of defenders, or mine one of the points and let the spike detonate.

Attacking players can play their rounds in several ways.

1. You play aggressively and quickly attack one of the sides and attack the site, trying to quickly occupy it and eliminate all the opponents who are holding it. After installing the spike, all players will take up defensive positions and will repel counterattacks from the defenders, who will try to knock you out and clear the spike, otherwise they will lose the round, even if they destroy all the attacking players.

2. You can disperse to key points and look out for opponents who may be leaving their positions to reconnoiter the situation, and then you will get a chance to destroy them and immediately consolidate all forces to strike in the direction that has become weakened.

3. You play as slowly as possible and simply slowly approach the site that you plan to storm, then throw grenades and special skills of the heroes at it and gain a foothold on it.

Don’t rush to play with a sniper rifle, because unlike defenders, you will often run into enemies in close combat and such a weapon simply will not help you, but it is quite expensive and brings minimal profit per kill - it is better to give preference to assault weapons.

Defense

If you play on the defensive, then you must competently occupy defensive points and constantly change them in order to remain unpredictable for opponents in Valorant.

You need to control the center of the map, because this way you will know all the plans of the enemies and their constriction, and using negotiations with each other, you will be able to study the situation on each site and move forward to understand the direction of the attack and block enemies from several sides.

Try to survive on the site, and not kill as many enemies as possible, although this will not be superfluous.

Your main task is not to die and, if possible, to prevent the enemies from establishing a spike, and then with the help of reinforcements you will be able to destroy the opponents.

If possible, you need to not only kill enemies, but also prevent them from setting up a spike, and then if they are defeated, they will not receive additional financial bonuses and will quickly lose the economy and will play cheap rounds without equipment, which will affect your boosting in Valorant.

Try to use smoke bombs and fire to block the enemy at the entrance to the site and deprive him of the ability to move freely and find the defenders of the site and get into the bullets.

Agents

Each side will have the opportunity to choose their agents to participate in the match - each player can only choose an agent who has not already been selected by the rest of the team.

Heroes can be attacking, defensive, scouting, or supporting.
 

Sova

He is a scout hero who combines his shooting weapons with a combat bow, which helps him conduct reconnaissance.

You will be able to draw the arrow and release a pulse that will deal heavy damage that will destroy the enemy it hits.

You will be able to fire a special arrow that will scout the area around and mark all enemies that fall within its radius.

You will be able to launch and control the drone to conduct reconnaissance, but remember that the drone can be destroyed, and the hero himself will be defenseless all this time.

This is a full-fledged attacking hero who will use important mechanics to storm sites and defend them.

You will be able to open an interactive map and select three points on it where the smoke screen will be installed.

Sage

You can use the class of a full-fledged support to help yourself and your allies with the help of skills.

You can cast cold on the ground to slow down all enemies that come into contact with it.

You can use magic to create a protective wall as a barrier for your opponents. They will have to destroy them, wasting their resources and creating noise, which can disrupt their plans, or bypass them, wasting precious time of the entire round.

Use magic to restore health to yourself or your ally.

Use your powerful skill to bring a fallen ally back to life.

Jett

You will be able to use the dash and jump to greater heights to get into a better position.

You will be able to set up a smoke screen to attack more stealthily, or have more maneuvers to attack.

You will be able to activate attacks from 5 daggers, in which you will throw melee weapons at the enemy until they run out.

Your main task is to choose an agent who will complement your squad so that you always have both an attacking character and a support hero who will heal and resurrect if necessary, which will increase the likelihood of winning rounds and successful boosting in Valorant.

Memorize all the main skills of each class and look for ways to counter them.
