CS:GO purist here, but gotta admit, Valorant’s got its charm with those flashy abilities and unique characters. Makes strategy a whole different game.

Valorant and CS:GO might look similar at first glance, both being tactical shooters, but they have their unique flavors. For starters, Valorant mixes things up with characters (known as Agents) who bring their own special abilities to the table, adding a layer of strategy that's different from CS:GO's more traditional, ability-free gameplay. Plus, Valorant's colorful, somewhat futuristic art style stands in contrast to CS:GO's grittier, more realistic settings. While the core 5v5, plant/defuse mechanics remain familiar, Valorant's abilities, such as healing or vision-blocking smokes that are specific to characters, offer a fresh twist.

Valorant’s just a CS:GO clone with magic. There, I said it.
