Valorant: How to win with KAY/O – tips, and strategies

Valorant values aim mechanics and teamwork above everything else, but ability usage comes first. This is arguably what keeps some FPS veterans away from the game, or at least it was until KAY/O came out. If you like games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, KAY/O should be the appropriate agent for you because he has several powers that are recognizable to you. Winning with KAY/O demands a high level of personal skill and confidence, but when played right, it can sweep an entire team.

Encourage your teammates to push

KAY/FLASH/DRIVE O's ability is, simply put, the best flash in the game. As a result, it's critical that you act as the initiator and flash your dualists in so they may go after kills. These flashes, paired with his FRAG/MENT Molotov, will aid you and your crew in clearing deep angles and coordinating your drive onto the site. While pushing, it's also critical to use your ZERO/POINT throwable to detect enemies and disable their abilities, making their lives much more difficult.

While playing with your squad is usually the best way to go with KAY/O, his FLASH/DRIVE allows him to take one-on-one duals. If you know where an enemy is, this ability can nearly always completely flash them if utilized correctly. Don't be scared to swing off your flash while your opponent is trying to avoid it for an easy kill.

Deactivate their abilities

NULL/CMD, KAY/ultimate O's ability, may alter the tide in any team fight. It can be difficult to know when to use this ultimate, but it's best to keep it for quick team pushes or retaking sites so that you and your team have an easier time succeeding. While in your ult, use your ZERO/POINT throwable to take out a pesky enemy who may be playing off-site or hiding to take control of the entire opposition team. When played with an aggressive, smart playstyle, KAY/O thrives. If you place a premium on your aim, you and KAY/O might be a match made in heaven.
