There’s a lot inValorantthat feels like Counter-Strike, but Counter-Strike could never do trailers where they introduce new robot killing machines. That’s what Valorant’s latest character is. Called KAY/O, his main ability is to suppress his enemy’s abilities. He’ll join the game alongside the beginning of Episode 3 on June 22nd, and the trailer is below.

I quite like that Valorant’s pitch is basically “Counter-Strike with magic abilities”, or often “magic abilities that roughly approximate Counter-Strike items”, but here the magic is just… a flashbang. This isn’t a complaint - I quite liked Valorant up until the point where random players started yelling at me during matches.
Valorant recently gota new mode that lets you pit teams of the same agent against one another. If everyone picks KAY/O and uses their suppression ability to suppress everyone else, is everyone suppressed or no one?
