Valorant: This is Raze - strengths and features at a glance

Raze is not available from the beginning. It is noticeable that the dashing Brazilian is often unlocked as the first additional agent. There are good reasons for this and our guide explains them.

Explosive affair: Raze literally likes to let it rip.

During the beta phase of Valorant, Raze was so strong that Riot Games had to reduce the damage values. But even since then, Raze continues to be feared by opposing teams.

Raze: Massive area damage at all times

Raze's abilities are almost entirely area damage. This makes her a penetrating heroine on all fronts:

• Her ultimate is a rocket launcher ("full barrel"). With this, you can take out several opponents at once from the match.
• On "E" lies the Cluster Grenade ("Color Bomb"). It, too, targets several opponents who are in one place.
• A special gadget is the "Boom-Bot", which is located on "C". The small mechanical vehicle automatically seeks out and tracks the first enemy its sensors get a hold of, then explodes. In addition to the damage potential, the tactical component is interesting here, as the robot can provide distraction and additional pressure.
• With up to two "explosive packs" on "Q", Raze can set powerful traps and detonate them from a distance.

Because of these skills, it is not surprising that Raze takes the role of a duelist. She is present in many teams and can provide the decision at both ends of the battlefield. Thus, newcomers are welcome to deal with her in order to have a strong iron in the fire when it comes to class selection.
