Valorant recently revealed the seventeenth agent to join its lineup. The character is a killer robot who goes by the name of Kay-O. Shroud is one of the most avid Valorant players. His skills from the previous first-person shooters like CS: GO and Apex Legends transition well into the game. Thus, he has a good understanding of what is ‘overpowered’ and what isn’t in Valorant.
Shroud recently did a review of the new agent and was not too impressed with Riot Game’s work. Kay-O wields a throwing knife that suppresses the abilities of enemies within its radius. However, Shroud believes that this weapon will be most effective for gathering information.

This new agent also offers a variety of grenades. Firstly, a flashbang can be charged to increase its blinding effects on enemies. Secondly, a fragment grenade causes a cluster of explosions. Shroud says that the “flashes are sick” and describes them as his “favorite part.”
Overall Shroud believes that this character is good in some aspects and bad in others. He says that Kay-O “does what he does well and he has a very well-rounded kit. He’s got flashes, he’s got nades, and he’s got info.” It is also useful to take into consideration that Kay-O will be more effective on smaller maps due to the range of his ultimate attack.
