Valorant review

Valorant

is Riot’s newfangled hybrid of CS:GO and Overwatch, where teams of five run around shooting very deadly weapons while deploying character-based abilities. It’s very, very similar to CS:GO, right down to the round structure and individual weapons. If you’ve ever defused a bomb in Counter-Strike, there’s a good chance you’ll already be a crack shot here. It’s basically the same, but with more mind games and novel situations thanks to those abilities.

It’s a great game, but playing by myself makes me miserable far more often than it makes me happy.
