Who Is the Newest Valorant Agent in Episode 5?
Since Valorant's release, there have been many new additions to the roster. The latest is an agent with ancient technology allowing him to be a water-bending controller, and he's the 21st agent you can play, Harbor. »Discover how you can get free Valorant points Introducing Harbor Harbor is a charismatic agent that comes from the coast of India and is equipped with technology that allows him to wield the power of water in unnatural ways. Harbor uses his hydro-powered abilities to shape the battlefield, protect allies, and disrupt and damage any opponents he comes across. While his kit seems to let him play quite aggressively, his abilities are made to compete with Viper's. This makes him fall under the Controller category of the agents, and he is the 5th controller to be added to the roster. If you're unfamiliar with the 4 roles in Valorant that make up a well-rounded team, here's a quick breakdown: Controllers These agents are all about obstructing vision and shaping the battlefield, creating smoke fields and walls that opponents either have to walk around or risk walking through. If played correctly, controllers can stop rushes and make massively strategic plays for the team. Harbor's one of these.Duelists These agents are designed to be really good at 1v1 combat, whittling down an enemy's defense and making them vulnerable for team fights. Jett has been a player-favorite duelist since the launch of the game.Initiators These agents are equipped with abilities that are extremely good at starting fights—usually with disruptive capabilities or ones that give visual information. These agents are often perceived as support characters but are essential during team fights.Sentinels Sentinels have abilities and skills that allow them to keep opponents back. This includes slowing down or halting opponents that are pushing forward or sneaking around the back of the map. Cypher is a great example of a sentinel. » Learn more about Valorant Harbor's Abilities Now that you're familiar with the agent roles, let's take a look at Harbor's abilities to see what makes him such a strong new controller: (E) HIGH TIDE Harbor can send out a long, tall wall of water that can bend in the direction you look. The walls briefly slow opponents who cross through the watery screen, which can't be seen through but can be shot through. Harbor can create shorter walls by stopping his ability early. (Q) COVE Harbor can toss a projectile that expands into a large sphere of water that blocks bullets. Players and certain abilities can still pass through seamlessly. With enough bullets, the sphere can be destroyed by teammates or enemies. (C) CASCADE Harbor can send forward a wave that acts as a smaller wall-smoke but is extremely tall. The wave can pass through map terrain and walls, and slows any enemies that pass through it or get hit by it. Harbor can cast his ability again to make his wave stop and stay in place. (X) RECKONING Harbor's ultimate ability creates water geysers under the feet of every enemy within a selected area. Enemies who get caught by the geyser are stunned and revealed, though they can escape the geyser in time if they are fast enough. » Learn how to improve your Fracture map strategy in Valorant In a Nutshell Harbor is an incredible controller with stronger versions of almost every type of walling and smoking ability. His cooldowns are a little steep as a result, but he's still undoubtedly overpowered if played correctly. Harbor is opening up and reshaping the meta, and it'll be interesting to see how different counters come into play in the competitive eSports scene. While you're trying out Harbor in your Valorant matches, why not have Buff in the background so you can earn free rewards?

5 Valorant Pro Player Sensitivity Settings to Tweak Your Aim To
When it comes to tactical shooters like Valorant, precision in your aim is arguably the most important factor to improving your gameplay. While some mouse settings typically come down to personal preference, we can see that Valorant pros with the best aim fall within a concise range of eDPI. For those unfamiliar: DPI (dots per inch) is the standard measurement for mouse sensitivity. DPI is the mouse sensitivity you experience through general use of your PC and can typically be adjusted with your mouse's software. eDPI is the measurement you get when you take your DPI and multiply it by the in-game sensitivity multiplier. So though we see some players have a vast difference in DPI, it is mostly irrelevant, as their eDPI tends to fall in the same general range of 200-400. » Learn more about Valorant 1. TenZ's Settings eDPI:240DPI:800In-game Sensitivity:0.3 Tyson "TenZ" Ngo plays for Sentinels and is widely regarded as one of the most talented Valorant players of all time. His precision and aim is often on a tier of its own, even when compared to his fellow pro players. » Do you love watching competitive esports? Read about the 4 most exciting Valorant tournaments 2. Asuna's Settings eDPI:380.8DPI:1400In-game Sensitivity:0.272 Peter "Asuna" Mazuryk plays for 100 Thieves and has previously been Rank #1 Radiant on Valorant's NA server. Compared to the others on this list, Asuna has a much higher eDPI of 380, but an eDPI of under 400 is still typical for pros across Valorant. 3. ShahZaM's Settings eDPI:212DPI:400In-game Sensitivity:0.53 Shahzeb "ShahZaM" Khan plays for G2 Esports and is veteran in the tactical shooter scene. He is known as a pro in CS: GO playing for Cloud9, OpTic, and Complexity Gaming. 4. ScreaM's Settings eDPI:296.4DPI:400In-game Sensitivity:0.741 Adil "ScreaM" Benrlitom plays for Karmine Corp and has a history of being a headshot king. Back in his pro Counter Strike: Source days, he had one of the best headshot ratios of all time. 5. cNED's Settings eDPI:256DPI:800In-game Sensitivity:0.32 Mehmet "cNed" İpek plays for Natus Vincere and is known as one of the best Jett players in all of Valorant. Precise aim and Jett knives make for a deadly combo. » Learn more about Valorant's Competitive mode What Should Your Settings Be? The trend we see time and time again when it comes to tactical shooters is lower eDPI's reign supreme. It is true that the addition of abilities differentiates Valorant from more classical tactical shooters like CS: GO, but headshots are still the name of the game. Since lowering your eDPI drastically in one swoop may be too much of a sudden change, I recommend you do it a bit at a time. Jump into the range before each session and try to lower your in-game sense by 0.01 until you make your way down to 400 eDPI. While you're at it, download Buff if you haven't already. It allows you to passively earn points that can be redeemed for in-game rewards just by having the app run in the background while you play your favorite games.

How to Get the Golden Gun in Valorant
Imagine having a sidearm that lets you move faster than you would if you were holding a knife, with no spread like Jett knives, while being a one-hit kill no matter where you land the bullet on your enemies. Similar to Jett's Ult mechanic, you gain extra ammo upon getting a successful kill with the gun. It's no wonder the Golden Gun has been such a popular addition to Valorant. The gun alone has inspired players who normally don't play the Spike Rush mode to give it a try. Play Spike Rush But how do you actually get the gun? First off, the Golden Gun is only available during the Spike Rush game mode. Inside the game mode, Ultimate Orbs are replaced with Spike Rush Orbs, one of which is the Golden Gun orb that equips your agent with the Golden Gun. For those unfamiliar with the game mode, it is a condensed version of the standard Valorant gameplay. While the objective is the same, it is significantly faster-paced: Pre-round time reduced (20 seconds down from 30)Game time reduced (80 seconds down from 100)Fewer rounds needed to win the match (First to 4 down from 13)The same loadouts are automatically given to all players (No more econ)Ultimate Orbs are replaced with Spike Rush Orbs (giving ultimate points like Ultimate Orbs but also including power-ups, one of which is the Golden Gun) Another thing to note about obtaining the Golden Gun is that if you kill an enemy agent wielding the Golden Gun, you will automatically receive it. The Golden Gun takes everything you'd want in a loadout and throws it into one weapon to grant you incredible power. We highly recommend that you jump into a game of Spike Rush if you haven't tried it yet. To make it even more fun, run Buff in the background while playing. This will allow you to earn points that can be redeemed for in-game items, which will then make playing even more fun. » Read about the newest Valorant agent, Harbor
