as valorant esports continues to evolve, the important of shooting igls are becoming undeniable. valorant is a shooter game where teams CANNOT afford to have players like fns or ange1 going minus 20 every series. the games pace has shifted, and fragging power should be expected from all players on the team.

teams like nrg, fnatic, navi will ultimately fail this year
