Valorant's new map—Sunset—was released worldwide on August 27, 2023. With a design based on Los Angeles, this map provides players the chance to explore gunplay potential without the presence of gimmicks. However, being a character-based tactical shooter, you are expected to set yourself and your team up for success with abilities.

The presence of tall buildings on Sunset makes it an ideal map for Fade. Her signature ability, i.e., Haunt, can get immense value on most parts of the map. Here are some of the most useful lineups for you to learn.
