Welcome to our Valorant tier list. We want to introduce our readers to the current agent tier list for Valorant Patch 9.08. This list should be highly competent, as it was compiled by one of the best esports players, who playing for Natus Vincere, Ardis "ardiis" Svarenieks, and approved by our experienced editor with an Immortal rank.

Valorant Agent Tier List

Before we dive into the tier list, we want to remind you that any agent in the game is capable of winning, and regardless of abilities, even with excellent aim you can win games without using abilities. However, when you combine good shooting with the quality abilities of an agent, your chances of winning will increase significantly.

Duelists Tier List

  • Currently, Raze ValorantRaze is one of the most versatile and strongest duelists in the current meta. With a little practice in the lobby with her abilities, combined with good aim, this agent becomes a serious problem and a strong site opener.

  • Jett ValorantJett is strong, and it's hard to argue with that. Understanding how powerful she was before receiving a series of nerfs for all her abilities is terrifying. If she is relevant and strong now, how did we ever play against her?

  • ISO ValorantISO is a new duelist in the game, who is being chosen as an alternative to Reyna ValorantReyna. As an individual agent, he has interesting new mechanics, but is extremely ineffective compared to other duelists and agents.

Sentinels Tier List

  • Currently, Cypher ValorantCypher is the strongest sentinel in the game due to the fact that his traps have undergone significant buffs, making it extremely problematic to face him on-site, especially on Sunset.

  • Sage ValorantSage has a questionable set of abilities, but is still useful when playing as part of a team. However, it's often preferable to opt for another agent with a similar role in the game.

  • No matter how hard Riot tries to improve Deadlock ValorantDeadlock's abilities, her concept does not fit the current meta, and in every game, Cypher, Killjoy, or even Sage will be much more useful. On paper, her ultimate ability is very strong, but implementing it is extremely difficult due to its small radius.

Initiators Tier List

  • Skye ValorantSkye - the most versatile and useful initiator on any map. The nerf to Skye with a fixed number of flashes did not fundamentally affect her dominance on all maps.

  • Sova ValorantSova still has extremely useful abilities and a very strong ultimate, making him an invaluable agent for both attack and defense.

  • Despite being at the B Tier, Breach ValorantBreach is extremely useful in the right hands and when paired with duelists, can cause a lot of commotion on the map.

Controllers (Smokers) Tier List

  • Viper ValorantViper has survived numerous nerfs and debuffs, but fundamentally the Agent has not changed. The extremely powerful abilities of this smoker still make her essential on many maps in the current meta.

  • The simplest smoker to operate, but far from the least useful. Brimstone ValorantBrimstone has the strongest molotov in the game and an extremely destructive ultimate, which can be effectively used for both attack and defense.

  • Harbor ValorantHarbor is one of the least popular agents in matchmaking among players, yet he can be useful as a second smoker on Sunset, Breeze, and Bind.

We hope that this agent tier list Valorant will help you determine which agent you will dominate with in ranked matches. Don't forget, any game with any combination of agents and any match score can be won, so even if you see Reyna, ISO, Gekko, Phoenix in the picks, don't tilt and give up prematurely! Good luck in the world of Valorant, we wish you to achieve the desired results and enjoy our favorite game.
