Valorant Players Can Go Full ‘Olofmeister’ With This Raze Exploit on Ascent

Published 02/01/2021, 7:45 AM EST

Riot Games has managed to keep its FPS game pretty much glitch-free since its launch last year. However, every once in a while, some glitches find their way into Valorant. Even though a few of these are game-breaking, the rest are practically harmless. They either make for some humorous clips, or they let players record some epic trick shots.

A similar glitch recently appeared on Reddit. One of the users from the official Valorant subreddit posted a recording of a new Raze glitch. This glitch is not really game-breaking, but it definitely gives those using the agent an unfair advantage over others.

To successfully perform the maneuver, one has to first unlock Raze’s ultimate ability. Additionally, they would also need to have a blast pad ready. Once they have both the necessary abilities, they can follow the steps shown in the video posted by u/lCitrusGamingl.

The glitch allows Raze to boost herself off the ground way too high. Players can climb atop buildings on the Ascent map using this glitch. This allows Raze to view the entire map depending on where they use the glitch.

Clearly, this gives teams with Raze a lot of unfair advantage. They can shoot at players with the Operator sniper or tap them with ARs without getting noticed.

Out of the two clips u/lCitrusGamingl posted on Reddit, only one is in a live game. He just uses the boost to take out an opponent. However, he also posted another clip in a custom room. He displayed how players can use the glitch to record some neat shots.

One can see the user performing a smooth 720° no scope shot against their friend in the video. He lands the shot in two attempts, but it’s easier said than done. Especially in a ranked game, lining up these shots would be extremely difficult. However, players can always head into custom rooms with their friends to record some cool clips.

This almost reminds die-hard Counter-Strike: Global Offensive fans of the incident during the DreamHack Winter 2014 tournament. It was the infamous match between Fnatic and LDLC, which went down as one of the ugliest matches in CS:GO history. This match is where the Fnatic player Olofmeister used a glitch to get a boost from his teammates.

If it takes Riot long to fix the Raze glitch in Valorant, one may see a similar instance in competitive Valorant soon enough.
