10 Ways Valorant Is A Clone Of Counter-Strike

10. The HUD

The HUD or Heads Up Display is the visual means by which a player can see essential information about the game. Valorant's HUD reflects that of Counter-Strike with the mini-map or radar in the top left, the kill feed in the top right, the timer and score at the top, and the player's health, armor, and ammo at the bottom.

In this way, any Counter-Strike player will feel right at home when hopping on Valorant for the first time, which is not at all unintentional.

Ever since I saw BJ grin as he picked up the chain gun in Wolfenstein 3D, I've been hooked on video games. My first love, however, was Counter-Strike 1.3 and I would beg my mom to take me to Internet cafés just so I could play it. The other two games that captured my heart were World of Warcraft and Quake, though I play all sorts of games (especially of the competitive multiplayer type). Oh, and I love dwarves and write fantasy stories about them in my free time.
