Who is Neon?

Country of Neon: Philipins

Hailing from Manila, VALORANT’s new recruit, a young duelist who can outpace the rest of the roster, is shocking the competition and sliding straight into fights. With radiant abilities based on electricity, she was recruited into the Valorant protocol to help KJ build a teleporter to Earth 2 where the next new map will be situated.

She is equipped with stuns similar to breach, damaging walls similar to a phoenix, and a game-breaking ultimate that rewards good object tracking.

Filipino Agent Neon surges forward at shocking speeds, discharging bursts of bioelectric radiance as fast as her body generates it. She races ahead to catch enemies off guard, then strikes them down quicker than lightning.

The personality of Neon seems to be on the softer side. She seems closer to her family as she called her mother as soon as she reached Valorant protocol headquarters. With a speed that blinds like the golden sun, Neon waits for no one except for her plushy friend named squishy.

Valorant: Neon Abilities

Neon’s ability allows her to slide between lines and cause disruption in the enemy’s formations. Below is the breakdown of Neon’s abilities and her unique signature ability.

Ability 1: Fast Lane [C]

Ultimate: Overdrive [X]

The addition of Neon is probably the departure of Valorant from the old formula of CSGO of competitive pattern-based FPS experience which awards good mechanical skills to a new genre of creative tactical shooter never seen before. This agent’s electrifying speed will force gamers to adapt and overcome.

Alongside new Agent Neon, a fresh Battlepass, and skin line, Patch 4.0 brings a few weapons from out of the shadows, tones down some others, and improves the melee. Map changes to Bind, and Breeze, reshaped in areas that should adjust the attacker/defender dynamic. This Act bring a new chapter of great content brought by riot games in an attempt to keep the game fresh and entertaining.
