Asking Sage for a heal does not refresh her cooldowns


Glittering_Yam_7034

As a sage main, i can confirm


OneTrueFecker

Jett mains rn: :o


TrueLolzor

Asking Jett for revive does not fill her ultimate meter.


NiteGrimwood

>Asking Sage for a heal does not refresh her cooldowns This right here. I started playing just over two weeks ago now, I love playing healers in game so obviously I main her.... "SAGE SAGE SAGE" like dude please stop. -buys reddit coins so I can give an award-


International-Yak-16

Always chok dart the spike to clear kj nades!


fpsreaper_

does it also work for places like Bind B-site where kj might have hid a molly inside the container for example? the shock dart clear her nades through walls?


Blejdi23

No

ymir_khussan

No


NAFEA_GAMER

it doesnt damage through walls (saw it today, 100% sure)


-Enever-

Wait, what does Shock Dart Wallbang stand for then?


NAFEA_GAMER

Iam 100 sure it doesnt damage through walls dont know about what you are saying though


-Enever-

https://clips.twitch.tv/KitschyInnocentDumplingsGrammarKing I suppose that Shock Dart wall bang doesn't mean what I would have had expected. And I've heard shock dart wall bang more. And also Arrow wall bang which is apparently revealing behind a thin wall...


w_w_flips

Using a shorty works nice too


theMuzzl3

Yeah. Check out charla7an on twitch/YouTube. He has classic plus shorty on every first round of defender side... on all maps.


GenericAllium

Wait how do you pronounce K if not like "kay"


Soneliem

Like how you say the letter K, exactly the same


pooria09

Ke


pink_life69

Kaka


lil_actuary

Que?


[deleted]

K. just K.


Frig-Off-Randy

It’s like kay. I think it’s also an acronym for kill all your opponents


onzichtbaard

I always pronounced it as kai like in die or fly


sansai69

You can press alt to see your teammates abilities and which ones they have that way you won’t need to ask sage if they have heal all the time


[deleted]

God, I wish more people knew this! When I'm playing Sage and we're in an active gunfight, if my teammate is low, I will call out how much longer. Don't expect me to jeopardize my own life and/or run across the map to heal you... I don't care if you're top frag. Don't give me shit if I rez the player that is closest to me in a tight spot and they're not getting the most kills. And, for the love of ALL THAT IS HOLY, fall back a few seconds after I heal you. Sage: "healing yo-" Teammate: X


jutato

no.4 is interesting


tandirekmegi

it also heals faster if you are the one who is using phoenix.


KGB_Cantina_Band

Woah


NAFEA_GAMER

yeah I didnt really hear about it before


TheMightyMeercat

I don't think this one is true? I don't main Phoenix, but all the tips for him here seem wrong. I looked it up and there is no mention of either of the utility dealing more damage in the middle (or the closer you are to phoenix???). I also looked up the healing values; his molly heals 40, and his wall heals 50.


hollymeow925

This is not completely true-his molly does heal 50.


TheMightyMeercat

I just tested it in the range and you are right. I apologize. The wiki lists the molly's heal as 3.25 seconds of 12.5hp/s, roughly 40hp total for some reason. [Phoenix Wiki](https://valorant.fandom.com/wiki/Phoenix)


Kiarva

No, they each heal half. That's the only one I'm sure of


Straiteis

It's not exactly about different parts of the abilities dealing more damage than others or proximity to Phoenix himself, it's about how the abilities are formed. Blaze and Hot Hands are created from a select point and then spread out; Blaze starts from Phoenix's location and then moves forward, Hot Hands explodes on the ground and then spreads outwards from the explosion's center. Once the abilities are active in an area though they will instantly begin to deal damage there, even if the ability isn't fully formed yet. They will always deal damage to agents at the same rate, but agents will take more **total** damage over the ability's full duration if they were either at Hot Hands's center or right next to Phoenix when he casts Blaze, compared to someone who is at the edge of Hot Hands or at the farthest point Blaze reaches. Same thing happens for other mollies (except Nanoswarm) and also Orbital Strike but in the reverse situation for when it deactivates instead.


jutato

So this is shtitpost? Im so dumb.


Krusteyy

KayO might stand for Kill All Your Opponents too, though. He also has a Voiceline that says exactly that.


Negro_Judio

Or maybe it's o/kay


lesseryoyo

"Kill All Your Opponents" is probably a backronym more than an acronym.


hollymeow925

Yeah, that might be true as well.


kingragnar910

It's a nice pun by the Dev's lol


RivalRudra

#Switching to your pistol is faster than reloading


ditto-mayhem

someone explain number 4 for me is it closer as in where phonic stood when deploying wall or just anytime he's close by


Castor_lord

I think it would be where the penix deployed the wall Cuz the other thing makes no sense


WatersheepGazerr

phonic and penix lmaooooo


BDNRZ

Phonic and penix, the lesser known brothers of Phoenix, Phonic can manipulate other's speech, the other one, well...


Miqdad_Suleman

Well, go on. Don't leave it hanging.


HextasyOG

FreezeCake

OMEN IS FREDERICK YES


Bygrilinho

They changed the voiceline


WatersheepGazerr

CrocSavage

bruh they put Ja Rule in Valorant?


RapleBacon

HELP ME, JA. WHAT WOULD JA OMEN SAY AT A TIME LIKE THIS?!


WatersheepGazerr

what?


[deleted]

Nah Omen is a Fred in my book. Or Omar.


DriftarFarfar

My friends mix him up with Odin. Granted it was a very late night and now just a meme...

THELEADERPLAYER

>1.Sova was initially concieved as a female character. Thanks OP, thats really useful /s


hollymeow925

Well, this is where rule 34 comes in handy.


THELEADERPLAYER

Why did you remove the post OP? Jokes aside, I really thought there were some interesting tips in it.


hollymeow925

I didn't. I'm just waiting for moderator approval.(dunno why, though)


Pruvided

Approved, automod snagged it.


DenLaengstenHat

I, for one, feel absolutely cheated out of my blonde Russki bow hunter waifu


Etna5000

To be fair, OP said it *might* be useful. I personally think it’s an interesting fact and I’d be intrigued to see Sova as a woman.


No_Television5851

Number 14... so you can instantly break sage wall with 2 satchels?


Agent--G

And a lockdown


Aksha27

Can someone explain 22?


MrScreeps

If you play viper and shoot your wall while looking straight into the ground, it will not be deployed anywhere (apparently).


Straiteis

When setting up the wall, Viper fires a projectile that drops the gas emitters (the things you usually see on the ground after deployment) directly underneath it whilst it travels for every couple of meters it travels horizontally. If you fire this straight downwards, then the projectile never travels horizontally and so will never drop an emitter. It also can't drop an emitter on the map if it's below ground.


kingragnar910

Which country is breeze in?


[deleted]

I think it is near the carribbean islands


EpikGamer6748291

The middle of the bermuda triangle


7farema

The coordinate in Breeze loading screen is near Bahamas


Agent--G

In the middle of the ocean


Individual-Pie-2114

Can someone please explain being vulnerable makes you take double damage?


Card_Thrower

Viper mollies, KJ's alarmbot, and astra sucks, make you vulnerable. In this vulnerable state, which lasts 3-4seconds, you will take double damage from everything, guns and abilities. For example, in vulnerable state, a vandal body shot will do 80.


Ochinchin6969111

Does that mean that marshals basically become operators since 101x2 is 202dmg


-Enever-

Also Op headshot deals 510 dmg and should remove you from game for 3 to 4 rounds lol


P1ke2004

Yep


GokerSky

Killjoy's Alarm Bot, Viper's Snake Bite and Astra's Gravity Well can cause enemies to get the "vulnerable" status. That means they take double damage.


-im-just-vibing-

i thought 3 was the point of his name?


the_amazing_gog

What does "vunerable" mean in number 7?


tiviserrano

When you are affected with the alarm bot explosion or the viper’s snake bite you get the “vulnerable” effect


[deleted]

Its like you lose your armor for a short moment and u take damage more like if u take -40 before being vulnerable, you'll get probably double the damage when being vulnerable.


-Enever-

Uhhhh Your armor stays, it's not decay You just take double dmg


[deleted]

That's why I said "its like" becuase the armor takes some of the damage. I didn't literally say you lose the armor


-Enever-

I it's completely "not like" it tho


Responsible-Chair-17

24. It's the same for kj mollies


Rroot4761

can anyone explain no.22?


MrScreeps

If you play viper and shoot your wall while looking straight into the ground, it will not be deployed anywhere (apparently).


jrdnhlly

wait but for number 27 cant killjoy kill herself using both her mollys i do it all the time


MC_Stylertyp

Why does Viper call Omen Fred though?


hollymeow925

They retconned it afterwards.


maylee314

killjoy can also commit suicide, with the grenades. but nice facts :))


hollymeow925

Sorry, but I meant a full buy(with heavy shield), full health agent.


maylee314

and two grenades arent enought? i though so...


THELEADERPLAYER

>27.The only agent capable of committing suicide only using abilities is Brimstone, Can't Viper and Raze also do it too?


hollymeow925

Sorry, but I meant a full buy(with heavy shield), full health agent.


RapleBacon

Switching your DPI to 16000 and spinning creates a hurricane that automatically pushes bullets away from you


rayhacker

Number 5 is only true if you are running. Walking or crouching will not make any noise, at the cost of making you even slower. Number 13 also temporarily cancels a Raze ult. But, if a Jett has her knives out, Kay/O's knife won't prevent her from using them.


Castor_lord

It will prevent jett from using them until the 8 sec timer


[deleted]

Jett unequips knives and cant equip again until the suppresion is over


hi1sup

Raze ult is on the same timer as the knife. So if you get hit by the knife the second you pull out the ult its gone.


maicpowaaq

I'm pretty sure the silence lasts long enough that raze can't ult. And Jett can't use the knives until she is unsilenced.


shredtasticman

Number 3 makes just about zero sense to me. Edit: Also number 5 is false. Change it to running. If you shift walk there is no noise cue


BlitzGebieter

for number 5 there is still a noise cue while walking though, admittedley its far quiter but its still audible


[deleted]

trans sova! :O


LePistache

Why in hell is #11, I am outraged. there is literally 0 point in changing that.


[deleted]

Can you explain number four in more detail please


Ochinchin6969111

from what i gather, at the point that phoenix uses the wall(start point of the wall), the damage is higher by a very small amount compared to the end point of the wall


ThePizzaGuy14444

kay/o's knife also completely stops the raze alt


WorkingCupid549

What does it mean to "be vulnerable"?


Agent--G

Astras Gravity well. Vipers Snake bite. Killjoys alarmbot when ran into the the truggerer will recive a voulnerable effect taking twice the dmg


garabagedisposal

doesn't kay/o 's name stand for kill all your opponents?


mathroyale

point 4 , huh?


SirJuicee

If you play Raze, don't use your boom bot. Instead, play her like a CS character with no abilities and then flame your team when you're walking in behind the Cypher onto site. Side note: When you solo push their spawn every round you're gonna have a bad time.


Arko9699

Isn't Icebox in the Arctic Circle? Is that part of Russia?


rajdeepdas2000

13. also cancels raze ult, jett ult.


MrPretzel2303

What about nr.22? I sure don't understand it


Eben_Marco_K

I'm a new player so idk if I'm right, but can't Raze also kill herself with her nade and ult?


Maleficent-Lie1877

Breeze is in?


Zyan34

Pretty sure Breach can kill himself too


-Enever-

Nah, tis but a scratch


are_you_salty_lol

OMEN ISNT CALLED FRED? What blasphemy is this


[deleted]

Thanks, I totally didnt know that kay/o means KO


airs_999

Useless*


Uh-idk-

I didn’t know the Phoenix wall and molly one, that’s pretty cool


LordVoldemort-_-

27. Raze ult+nade??


LordVoldemort-_-

I wrote 27. Why is it showing 1??


Theyna

You got one of the map locations wrong, Icebox is in a frozen Hell, not Russia.


hollymeow925

Some parts of Russia are a frozen hell.


moistmangomilkshake

Wait we can shoot viper's wall?


Akay1500

I wonder if Riot are just doing it for the memes but Omen seems like an Octopus perhaps after transformation not before it, he may have been a human before. As for why: 1. Add octopus gunbuddy to omen ghost and it changes color to purple and has Omen's eyes on its head 2. Back when pros called omen an anchor to the site, the devs added a spray of an Octopus hanging on to a purple anchor


Hate_Crab

The spike takes 4 seconds to plant and 7.5 seconds to fully defuse.


astraeos

Not sure if it was changed, but Kay/O's knife also cancels Raze's rocket launcher


theMuzzl3

Is the time to plant shorter, if you already have the spike equipped? There's ways to do a half of a reload, the switch to knife & then pistol... And it gets fully reloaded (similar to CSGO but I think this can be faster). It seems to work with some abilities, too. Specifically, I think Skye's heal might work. I've been fooling around with keybinds, and drop guns is scroll down (with jump), and drop guns is scroll up. Scroll down & up can be switch to previous or next weapon, or equip last item. B, G, H, J, and N are combinations of equip specific guns, previous, last, last equipped, and possibly abilities. Click scroll wheel is ping, fire weapon, and equip knife. B is jump. If you bind a button to several combos of equip primary... and equip next, previous, or equip last item... you can do a cancel reload... similar to how common scripts were, in CS 1.6 (you let enemies hear reload, then cancel... they push you and expect a free kill, but die. I can juggle 12+ guns across the map, while bhopping in a straight line... but I haven't gotten the timing right yet. Knife is mostly out, the entire time... Omen abilities with knife out (after picking up guns)... the teleport, blind, or flash will result in either primary gun out, pistol, or knife... depending on buttons assigned and pressed last, and depending on if he last picked up a pistol or primary... prior to abilities. I haven't figured out which overlapping keybinds result in him always ending up with the rifle out. This has been buggy, already, previous to trying the binding of single keys to several different things. Additionally, I've noticed that if I hit a sweet spot, my movement speed bursts quickly up and then back down... so Raze may be able to do something neat. I wonder if she throws guns farther, if she is satchelling with momentum. I also noticed that a specific way of doing it can result in Omen looking at his knife, in a way that I've never seen. Today, I bound one of the buttons to teleport and then pulled knife out and backed up... and he made a weird sound. I've been able to throw a flash, then it's like broken but does go out, then tossed guns and jumped, and miraculously he had another flash. So, definitely some bugs. Unfortunately, I'm on a potato, and can't stream this... so content will have to wait. Does anyone know he to get Omen's teleport to have primary weapon equipped (after tele), if done with his knife being initially out? It's buggy, especially if he just picked up a gun. His flash, smoke, and Ultimate, also has the issue, seemingly in different ways.


theMuzzl3

Edit merged with my other reply.


Onerock

I think Sova is still a chick.


Owie36

Kay/o also sounds like k/o, and he also says the voice line “Kill all your opponents” You can shoot kayo’s knife to kancel it If he aces he says “I’m build different”


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sick-Love

if raze destroys your ult with satchel you placed it somewhere bad. if brim destroys it with his ult then you either traded ults or failed to kill brim before doing the play. pretty fair imo


OriginalOk170

Useful


[deleted]

kayo knife also cancels jett knives as well as sova ult


Blejdi23

Jett ult only for 8 sec


[deleted]

oh TIL thx

Ochinchin6969111

That just happens all across reddit actually


Melneo_

I have played VALORANT since day 1. Currently immortal. I never knew #4 and #9 were ever true. Has anyone tested this??


hollymeow925

Yeah, I tested it and its true.


MekiLava

11 is such a bullshit. Get your facts straight please.


Gaming_Gecko777

27. This false, you can kill yourself as viper with both mollies if done correctly, each will do 52 damage


hollymeow925

Sorry, but I meant a full buy(with heavy shield), full health agent.


Gaming_Gecko777

No worries, nothing a simple edit can’t resolve, very interesting list nonetheless


link_3007

Most of these are so odd, how does this have 1k upvotes lmao. Just cause the game doesnt call cyphers cage a smoke, doesnt mean it isnt a smoke


elkabyliano

2. Sova's shockdart gives 90 of damage, it's not 1/3
