Valorant has brought back 'wallbanging', which is a player's ability to shoot through walls and kill enemies. This is a call-back to Counter-Strike 1.6 where 'wallbanging' was much more prevalent than in the current version of the game since back then everything on the map was pretty much 'wallbangable', so to speak.

In Valorant, some walls and objects can be shot through while others cannot. Learning the specific spots where this mechanic can be abused will certainly give players a distinct advantage and cause a fair bit of rage on the enemy team.

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.
