Freelancer Cian Maher has already taken a look at Valorant. He called it, not without reason, “CS:GO with an Overwatch reskin”.
Riot’s first ever shooter pinches its format and insta-killing weaponry from Counter-Strike, then sprinkles in Overwatch-style abilities. Cian liked it, overall, but felt it needed to be more distinct. “It’s not as good at doing what either of those games specialise in”, he said, “and it’s certainly not making a case for a hybrid entity drawing from both.”
I disagree. Come on, Cian, let’s do a fight.
