Players around the world are loving Valorant and its agents. According to recent data released by Riot Games, Jett and Sage are the most-picked agents in the game. However, when it comes to ultimate abilities, the stats tell a different story. Unlike other abilities that are available in the shop, every agent’s ultimate ability charges over time as they fetch points in the match. Also, players can pick up orbs that spawn at the contested areas on the map in every round. These orbs give players a single point for charging their ultimate.

Every Valorant agent has a unique ultimate ability
With their ultimate abilities, Controllers like Omen can teleport anywhere on the map, and healers like Sage can resurrect dead teammates. With so many great ultimate abilities at their disposal, fans still prefer three Ults over any other:
Jett’s Bladestorm
Jett is already one of the most popular agents in Valorant because she best fits her duelist’s role. The Operator-Jett combination is one of the most used meta in the game, and Bladestorm significantly adds a lot to the list.
With her Ult, Jett equips several deadly throwing knives that deal moderate damage and kill on headshots. Scoring a kill restores all daggers. Left-click throws a single dagger. Right-click throws all remaining daggers in a short-ranged burst.
Raze’s Showstopper might be the new Valorant fan-favorite
Raze is another strong duelist in Valorant and her ultimate ability attracts a lot of players, specifically in Brazil. With Showstopper, Raze equips a single-use rocket launcher with the ability to one-shot enemies. Damage from this ability is consistent throughout the entire blast radius. The agent’s popularity is growing at a steady pace because of such a strong signature and ultimate ability.

Phoenix’s Run it Back
Phoenix ironically has a very cool attitude, but his abilities are packed with flame walls and fireballs. Apart from great signature powers, the agent has a very useful ability for tense situations. ‘Run it Back’ instantly places a marker at Phoenix’s location. While this ability is active, dying or allowing the timer to expire will end this ability and bring Phoenix back to this location with full health.
Players in the United States of America love this ability the most.
