Is gekko op | VLR.gg

Lucrix

Every piece of util is good. His dizzy is able to flash really quickly and it reveals where they are. The wingman is able to plant bomb/defusing so gekko is able to use his gun and shoot instead of being out in the open. Also the wingman can survive sm util when planting/defusing. His moshpit is able to insta kill if the enemy stays in it for too long and the radius of the mosh pit is massive. His thrash is insane. Being able to detain enemies not once, but TWICE in addition to being able to get info and clear space is so powerful. The most insane thing imo tho is the fact you can pickup the util again and the cooldown is so short. 10 seconds for another ult is crazy, and the pickup is really quick too. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he’s nerfed before Seoul or afterwards cuz imo he’s the best agent in the game right now

Nah I like gekko. Hes an interesting character and I want him to have a place in the meta, I just don’t want him to become so strong that he gets nerfed to the ground like Skye

I’m not saying he needs a massive nerf, but making the wingman take full damage from mollys, making the thrash have only one use would be enough imo. It’s not that hard of a nerf and still makes him viable

His general util is fine but the ult is way to easy to get considering the value

if gekko was really "broken" wouldn't he be played more. he has less overall playtime than sova, and across all regions between him and kayo it's close

The cost is too low. We see teams farming the ult and getting it online by round 3 or 4

thats just good snowballing valorant tho
u will see that with every ult
thats more of a valorant problem than a gekko one

Isn’t it 6 points tho? I feel like having phoenix ult be 6 is good cuz it kinda compensates with his bad kit. But there’s really nothing wrong with gekkos kit that it should have such a low ult cost

he is fine, it's just that his util fits perfectly in the maps he's mostly played, also if skye wasn't nerfed she'd take the ini spot but thanks riot ig
