The Best Valorant Weapons in Each Category

1-6

Save up and buy these!

Tasho Tashev
Valorant - April 12th 2021, 09:00 GMT+2
Valorant Sheriff

BEST PISTOL: Sheriff - When it comes to pistol there's only one that can kill with a single shot and that's the Sheriff. The heavy-hitting sidearm is often a good choice in half-buy or eco rounds and with enough accuracy, it's totally worth it! (Credit: Riot Games)

Valorant Kingdom Bucky skin

BEST SHOTGUN: Bucky - The Bucky was recently nerfed in the latest patch and it really makes you wonder why. Is it perhaps because it was too good? Yes. The secondary fire of the shotgun gave it a much tighter spread which made it somewhat efficient at even medium distance. Even after the nerf it's still better than the Judge. (Credit: Riot Games)

Glitchpop phantom

BEST RIFLE: Phantom - It's a tough choice in here since the Vandal is also a fan favorite. Both weapons are extremely good and justify their cost of 2,900 credits. The Phantom has a silencer, a bigger magazine, and great accuracy on the first shot. If you're more into one-tap headshots, then go for the Vandal. (Credit: Riot Games)

Valorant Spectre

BEST SMG: Spectre - We really wish there was a wider choice among the SMGs, but the Spectre is the clear winner. It's cheap, it's efficient, and since run & gun is still a thing in Valorant you can utilize it easily. (Credit: Riot Games)

Yoru operator

BEST SNIPER: Operator - The OP is considered OP by many players while others claim it's useless. Even the pro players are divided, and the truth is it all comes down to skill and communication. The Operator kills with a single shot to the body and that's something no other weapon can do. If only it wasn't so damn expensive. (Credit: Riot Games)

Singularity ares valorant

BEST HEAVY: Ares - Is it inaccurate? Yes. Is it cheap? Yes. What more do you need? The Ares is the better choice in the heavy weapons department mainly because the Odin is terrible. Ares is great for holding down a point by ducking and focusing fire on it. Other than that, it's pretty mediocre. (Credit: Riot Games)

What about the weapons? Well, we've already covered the worst ones in each category so it only makes sense to also rate the best ones. Without further ado here are the best Valorant weapons in each category!
