Even if it does, in fact, be so expensive it might just be worth it because of the sheer magnificence it will add to the weapon. It may be so that soon Valorant may introduce character skins as well, but we might have to wait some more for that.
But… where is the trigger?
A lot of pros and players have shown their reaction to this skin set. Some like it, others don’t. But there is one question everyone seems to be asking: where… is the trigger? If you have seen the skin reveal trailer, you know what we’re talking about. But, personally we believe that just straight up wielding a dragon as a gun is pretty cool. But the Elderflame knife takes the cake. The knife looks sick, without a doubt.

But none of these opinions seem to be leaving a dent on the popularity of the game. Valorant has an ever-growing player base now and it sure knows how to keep its community happy. Now that the issues with competitive have been fixed, Valorant might be looking at a stable spot in the eSports hall of fame. It might not be long before we see its own championship and global event.
