These agents are divided into four categories, namely Duelist, Sentinel, Controller and Initiator. Each set has at least four or five agents on their roster. A player just needs to learn at least one agent from each category to efficiently play the game.As per the new system, a new player needs to win at least 20 Unranked matches to enable the competitive queue. Hence, the player needs to play at least 20 games at the start, which is a decent amount of time to learn three or four agents efficiently. With time, players can increase their proficiency with other agents as well.cookii@Cookii923The cascade pick system in valorant is something I want above all else!
