VALORANT is a tactical hero shooter with a twist, featuring a cast of characters—agents—who bring unique sets of abilities and playstyles. Riot Games categorizes them into four classes, each with a specific role, to make it easier for players to build a balanced team from the roster.
A Simple Guide to Valorant Esports (VCT)
There are 24 agents in VALORANT, covering four classes: duelists, controllers, initiators, and sentinels. Here’s what these classes offer and the list of agents that fall under them.
Duelists are self-sufficient fraggers. They are the agents that create the most impact and provide aggression to a team comp.
A duelist looks for engagements and frags, whether it’s finding the opening pick or getting a round out of the closet. Typically equipped with mobility, deterrents, flashes, and decoys, they’re responsible for helping the team create space.
