Valorant has been around for a while. Now, Riot Games has shown its intention to alter the power of the agents and their roles. This decision allows this video game to stay fresh for a long time.

Since this is a multiplayer title, it is customary to look for the character that helps to get better results in the games.

The last days of 2022 have become the perfect time to give a review of how the year has been in each video game. Riot Games allows Valorant players to review their data through a promotional campaign called “Flashback.”

Most popular agent

During the promotional campaign, the official Twitter account of the tactical shooter revealed a curious fact about the most used agent during the year.

The popular and extraordinary agent, Reyna, has been the most selected in VALORANT in the 2022 season.

This is a somewhat curious fact, given that she did not seem to be the most popular candidate for this award.

Due to a large number of updates since its launch, it seemed that Reyna would not be at the top of the list of the most popular agents of 2022.

The Mexican agent has prevailed over the rest of the squad members, even though it has been a tough competition. Even after receiving one of the hardest nerfs in the game’s history in April 2022.

One of the most potent options to take the prize was still Jett. Even Sage could have been the other candidate, thanks to her popularity since the game’s launch.

About Reyna

Let’s remember that Reyna came to Valorant’s lineup as one of the strongest agents in the game, but she was losing fuel over time.

However, after the latest upgrades to her blinding abilities, she became one of the best agents in the game. She could blind and shoot her opponents more efficiently than ever.

If we think about it, it makes sense for Reyna to be on the top of the podium and get this award. Not only does it have one of the best designs rated by the community, but it also has simple gameplay.

All of her abilities are very intuitive yet highly effective. As a result, she is an excellent gateway in the Duelist role, with no need to use complex mobility tools or place smokes.

We can’t deny that not having the need to plant smoke or having to think about using Explosive Bales as Raze or Neon leads us to select it in one game or another.

What’s new for 2023

A change of pace is expected as soon as the new year starts. Riot Games will make some changes in the rotation of competitive maps, and they may add a new agent for this list that now numbers 20.

All indications are that a new scenario will be added that could come with a cinematic to help advance the story. It is expected to be available at the beginning of Chapter 6.
