Valorant: Visual Guide to Smokes and Walls

1-9

Know your enemy better with this Visual Guide

Paul Hayes Paul Hayes
Valorant -
Omen Layout
1. OMEN'S DARK COVER: This smoke lasts 15 seconds and is one of the longest in the game. Watch out because Omen can appear any where on the map. (Image credit: Riot Games)
Brimstone layout
2. BRIMSTONE'S SKY SMOKES: This Smoke last 14 seconds a longer duration but keep your eyes on the walls when facing Brimstone for sneaky wall attacks. (Image credit: Riot Games)
Jett Layout
3. JETT'S CLOUDBURST: This smokes only lasts 7 seconds and then its gone, but be on guard, Jett only need one second to kill you. (Image credit: Riot Games)
Cypher overlay
4. CYPHER'S CYBER CAGE: Not exactly like a smoke, but is often used to the same effect. Whatever happens, do not step inside this smoke-like effect or it stuns you. (Image credit: Riot Games)
Sage layout
5. SAGE'S BARRIER ORB: This wall lasts a massive 30 seconds and sections of it can be destroyed with several shots. Keep in mind shooting it gives away your position so break at your own risk. (Image credit: Riot Games)
Valorant Phoenix Blaze Animation
6. PHOENIX'S BLAZE: This wall lasts 8 seconds and can be curved around corners and it stretches far across the map. (Image credit: Riot Games)
Valorant Viper Poison Cloud Animation
7. VIPER'S POISON CLOUD: This smoke lasts 15 seconds if the player who threw it has maximum fuel. The timing is harder to guess on this one! (Image credit: Riot Games)
Valorant Viper Toxic Screen Animation
8. VIPER'S TOXIC SCREEN: This wall lasts 15 seconds and again depends on the fuel level of Viper. (Image credit: Riot Games)
Viper Pit Animation Valorant
9. VIPER'S PIT: This is basically a massive smoke cloud that covers a large area of the map and Viper controls it. If Viper is inside it never ends, but if she leaves it lasts 15 seconds and begins to shrink. (Image credit: Riot Games)

Valorant has a huge skill ceiling! Fast-twitch gameplay, agent abilities, credit management, and map positioning all combine to make for a really hard game. Easily on the same skill level as that of Dota 2 and LoL, maybe even higher.

The world of Valorant wasn't built in a day, so improve your game one small step at a time. Today we look at the visual effects of smokes and walls that the different Agents have.

The guide's premise works like this: if you see a wall or smoke ask yourself two questions:

  1. What Agent placed it?
  2. How long does it last?
