New Neon ability could solidify agent’s position in VALORANT meta

Neon’s Game-Breaking Ability in VALORANT Meta:

The introduction of Neon on Jan. 11th has completely shaken up the VALORANT meta. Players worldwide are still discovering game-breaking tactics with this character.

Gaining map control is crucial in pro matches, especially in the early rounds. Neon plays a vital role in this, as she is the fastest character and, when combined with her stun, makes it easiest to gain map control.

Reddit users have found a new use for Neon, potentially changing the way VALORANT players start off rounds. However, there is a chance that Riot may nerf this ability.

User ‘Wild-Arachnid-172’ shared on the r/VALORANT subreddit the ability of Neon to access higher vantage points with ease. Neon can use her Slide and High Gear to boost off another player’s head and access spots that other characters can’t reach.

The video demonstrates Neon accessing “Belt” on Icebox, which will undoubtedly surprise any attackers rushing onto the A site.

Other Redditors also share secrets in the comments section, revealing more uses for Neon’s ability. Some comments suggest that Neon can access the tops of the pyramids on the A site of Breeze, as well as the vantage points on the B site.

Neon has been consistently picked in almost every Fracture game in the VALORANT Champions 2022 tournament. This ability is another reason to include her in the roster on other maps.

While this move is not an official ability, it could potentially become unintentionally game-changing, similar to recent moves like boosting.

New VALORANT tactics are constantly being implemented, and this discovery by Neon is sure to be added to the list of game-changing abilities.
