Omen

Omen is among the finest Controllers in Valorant and you can use him to play on the front foot. Essentially, you can use his Paranoia to blind opponents and get a free pick.

Clove

Another Controller on this list is Clove, and the agent is widely used for aggressive gameplay in Valorant. The main reason why

they are better than Omen for playing aggressive is the fact that you can use the smoke (Ruse) even after dying. Thus, even if you die, you can still support your teammates.

The Pick-me-up ability provides you with a speed boost and temporary health, whereas Meddle decays the opponent’s health, making it easier to kill them. Speaking about the ultimate, you can use it to revive yourself; however, you would have to get a kill or an assist within the stipulated time to stay alive.

Chamber

Chamber used to be one of the most overpowered agents in the game, but after the numerous nerfs, he is quite balanced now.

His primary draw is the Rendezvous ability, enabling you to teleport back after taking offensive peeks.

Yoru

Yoru is the next agent on this list, and he has a pretty stacked loadout, allowing you to sneak behind opponents and rack up kills. Fakeout can be employed to deploy a fake clone of Yoru, breaking which will flash the enemies, giving you a great opportunity to pounce. Next, his Blindside is a remarkable flash that can bounce on walls, and you can use it to set up yourself while entering sites.

His signature ability gives you the option to teleport to wherever it is placed. You can use it to escape from unfavorable fights or sneak behind opponents.

Reyna

Reyna emerges as probably the best agent to play solo, and she has a great set of abilities, helping you to play on the offense. Her Leer is a potent blind that may be used to blind opponents. In the meantime, her signature skills, Devour and Dismiss, provide possibilities for self-healing and speedy escape, respectively.

5

Phoenix

Phoenix is one of the older duelists, and he has constantly been a decent option. Even though he might not be the finest agent in his role, he is pretty capable when used correctly. Blaze can be used to create a flaming fall, whereas Hot Hands is a fireball that creates a damaging zone that can be used to damage opponents. You can use both of these to heal yourself.

His signature Curveball is a wonderful flash for close quarters, and you can effectively use it to move into tight spaces. Phoenix’s Run it Back is excellent for entering sites, but you need a teammate to watch over your body. Since the ultimate doesn’t require too many orbs, you can get it many times.

4

Iso

Many consider Iso to be among the most annoying agents to play against, and this is primarily because of his Double Tap ability. It provides you with a shield and also sends you into a flow state, where you can easily rack up the kills. Apart from this, Contingency and Undercut are excellent for taking space on the map, and the walls created will provide you with ample cover.

Raze

Raze is probably the most difficult agent to play in Valorant, and mastering her movements is quite difficult. Nevertheless, if you are good at using her Blast Pack and can satchel into sites, you will love using her while having an aggressive playstyle. Boom Bot will also be a good utility item, and you can use it to clear close corners.

Raze’s signature ability is a grenade, and it pops after bursting, dealing a hefty amount of damage to enemies if you employ it at the right place. The Show Stopper ultimate is a rocket launcher and it can easily kill multiple opponents.
