Wondering which starter agent should you use as a new player? Agent in spotlight- Phoenix!

A well-rounded mix of agents is vital for a successfulValorant team. Agents are broken up into four main playstyle types. When you first start playing, you'll naturallygravitate towards one or two of these positions, but you should try them all to determine what works best for you. Facing off against five aggressive Duellists is not ideal, but having a team comprised only of Sentinels and Controllers may lack the power needed to defeat opponents. The Initiators excel at this task.
Our boy Phoenix is a Duellist!
New players commonly indicate that this is their first FPS. Taking in consideration both default and unlockable agents, Reyna condemns you for unoptimized duels, Fade trains you to spray through smokes, Sage shows you how to acquire an angle advantage, and Brimstone teaches you how to isolate angles. Phoenix, aside from ult farming, is a wonderful new agent that is a jack of all trades. He doesn't need to ult farm if you want to argue for teaching a fresh new shooter player how to aim while utilising utilities. He uses a wall to separate conflicts and pushes. Flashes will take some time to understand, but they are really simple and rapid. His Molly is incredible, and his ult provides a free life to make risky moves. With Phoenix, the goal is to initiate first encounters early in the rounds, seek out one-on-one battles, engage around orbs, assertively secure map control, and establish a numerical advantage.
He is known as one of the most altruistic agents within the duellist class. Phoenix's flashes will remain slightly superior because of quicker weapon equip time, arming speed, and flash duration. In addition, the key to successfully using a Phoenix flash is mostly about game sense and prediction, with reaction time playing a smaller role at 20%.
Therefore, having Phoenix as your starter is a smart choice, but the most important thing to have is a good time!
