Valorant – Tips and tricks to play as Skye

If you enjoy stalking your opponent and then stalking them in Valorant, you should consider giving Skye a try.

The newest agent on the team offers a lot of utility to any team and is great for scouting out enemies and keeping them blind (literally). Skye has been missing for a few weeks, and we have had many opportunities to meet her and find the most effective ways to play with her. Here are some tips and tricks for Skye that you can use to get the most out of the feisty Aussie.

Tips and tricks from Skye about her abilities

All of Skye's abilities are focused on helping her teammates. Here are our tips on how to use them.

Resume Growth

This is Skye's healing ability. She equips a healing device and can activate it to heal allies in line of sight of her within a certain radius. She has a limited amount of healing, and she can take it off and put it back on as long as she has healing left. Its use is very simple: if you hurt your allies, heal them. Note that you can heal multiple allies at once. However, you can't use recovery to heal yourself, so don't waste resources trying to do so.

Pioneer

Skye takes control of a Tasmanian tiger and uses it to scout out enemies. The tiger can jump while moving, and Skye can command it to jump on enemies and hit them. Skye is vulnerable when she controls the tiger, so she only uses this ability from a safe location. You should primarily use this ability to scout enemies. The tiger has poor eyesight, but she will still be able to tell if there are enemies nearby if she has been shot before she sees them. If you come across one, pick it up and tell your teammates so they can move on.

Guide light

It's a blind Skye, and if it hits you, you know how annoying it is. Skye unleashes a falcon that he can blow up to blind anyone in sight. If Ella Skye blinds someone, she will call them "blinded" so you know. Above all, don't blind yourself or your teammates with this ability. Shoot around corners or through smoke to where you suspect your enemies are hiding, then blow it up. He hears Skye say that she hit someone and then walks forward. You can use the Tracker to find where your enemies are hiding before throwing a shutter as well.

Seekers

This is Skye's ultimatum and one of the best tracking tools in the game. She sends three Seekers out to find enemies and blinds them if she doesn't kill them. Use it when pushing or defending a site to know where the enemies are hiding. You can also lure Seekers, as enemies will try to destroy them to avoid blindness. Follow them, find out where the enemies are and engage them with the Seekers. Always keep your team informed of your plan so they too can execute it. Skye is a great agent to play with Valorant so make sure to try her out and get to know her abilities. Just make sure you don't blind your teammates too much.
