While some of these are rather underwhelming and don’t affect gameplay too much others can add some very interesting mechanics which can be used in creative and strategic ways. A good map shouldn’t be too much in favor of one side and the win rates for attackers and defenders should be relatively close to each other.Įvery VALORANT map has a unique element (e.g Bind teleporters, Ascent doors). We believe that a healthy balance in opportunities for attackers and defenders make a good map. We are ranking these maps based on the following criteria: In terms of balancing, the win rate stats seem relatively equal for both attackers and defenders. It might be the most unique map out of all, due to it being built in a way that allows attackers to attack each site from two opposite directions.

Not only is it rarely picked in professional play but it also counts as the most disliked map in Ranked play. #7 Fractureįracture is the youngest and least discovered map in VALORANT. The current win rate stats prove that Split is still a very defender-sided map. If you played VALORANT during the beta you will remember that Mid used to be impossible to breach due to how unfair it was designed and B-Site being intake able against Cypher, who used be very dominant. It’s the first map to introduce vertical ropes which can be found both on B-Site near Heaven and in Vents. The long distance between the two sites also comes with very long rotation times both for defenders and attackers.Įven after two reworks that were in the favor of attackers, Split is still a defender sided map. The map offers huge flanking potential due to many different choke points defenders need to hold at the same time. #5 Breezeīreeze is the largest and most wide open map in VALORANT. Small mistakes on either site as a defender can result in a pretty much lost round since retakes not only take long but are also difficult in general by how the sites are built. Losing entry battles can be very dangerous for defenders due to the long rotation times.
Icebox is the first map to introduce horizontal ziplines (A Site) which seem relatively irrelevant compared to teleporters on bind or the doors on Ascent. It is currently a slightly more attacker sided map due to the map being very wide which causes defenders to be outnumbered in most key situations. Haven seemed rather unpopular at the launch of Valorant because it features 3 sites, which is a major difference compared to traditional tactical FPS maps and affects gameplay a lot. The unique element are the teleporters which allow fast rotations for attackers and force defenders to always be cautious on both sites. It is a defender sided map, with about 53% of the rounds won by defenders. The map has no traditional mid-area, which makes it stick out a lot from other maps. #2 Bindīind is one of the 3 first VALORANT maps which were playable since beta. In terms of attack/defense side balancing, Ascent seems to be the most balanced map, being pretty much 50/50.Īscent’s unique map element is the doors near the sites, which can be strategically used both by attackers and defenders. It has a vey clean and simple mid-design. It is the map that feels the most similar to most traditional tactical fps maps from CS:GO, especially Cache. Lastly, be sure to check back when new maps are released for updated rankings! #1 AscentĪscent is the first map developed for VALORANT, according to Riot Ziegler.
